About the adventure

Now accepting new players for an epic DnD 5th Edition campaign! Beginners welcome! This adventure weaves together the core stories of Storm King’s Thunder and Against the Giants into an epic, giant-sized saga full of towering threats, legendary encounters, and unforgettable twists. Ages ago, giants and dragons waged war across the Savage Frontier. These battles are long forgotten by the human civilizations of today, but ancient relics remain. And now, the land shudders once more with the thunder of giant footsteps. Hill giants raid farms for food and livestock, as stone giants lay waste to settlements in their path. Frost giants plunder coastal towns, as fire giants gather slaves. Cloud giant castles drift across the sky, casting ominous shadows on the cities of the North. But no threat compares to the wrath of the storm giants, who stand betrayed. The brave adventurers must rise to the challenge, gather their strength, unlock the power of ancient runes, and take the fight to the giants' doorsteps. Only then can they discover a hidden evil fomenting a war between giants and small folk. Only then can they forge an alliance to end the war before it begins. Play by post is a fantastic way to play in a Fantasy adventure where you have not got the time to sit with a group on a weekly basis. Simply post and then read the story as it evolves and you have the time. This adventure will be a play by text asynchronous adventure. Asynchronous games are played as and when people have the time to play and no more than one person has to be online at the same time. By joining the group you agree to post at least once a week, more is better.

About me

Welcome, Adventurers! Thanks for taking a look at my adventures! I'm an experienced DM/GM with over 40 years of playing and running games under my belt. I absolutely love tabletop RPGs, and there's nothing I enjoy more than sharing that love by crafting unforgettable sessions. Dungeons & Dragons is a favorite of mine, and I bring that passion to every table I run. My goal is always to make the story leap off the page and help players fully immerse themselves in the world around them. While I respect the rules, the characters and story will always come first. It’s about having fun, sharing laughs, and letting the dice help tell the tale. Roll a natural 20? Expect something magical. Roll a 1? Well… it’ll still be magical, but probably not in the way you hoped. 😁 I'm especially passionate about helping new players find their footing, learn to roleplay, and get the most out of their game time. Not seeing the system you love? Just ask, I’m always open to new worlds and adventures. So jump on board and let me take you on a fantastic journey. Oh and don’t forget the snacks! I can’t wait to see you at the table.
