About the adventure

Welcome to Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk, a thrilling Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition adventure that invites both seasoned adventurers and newcomers to explore the mysteries of the Sword Coast. In this campaign, you'll journey from the bustling town of Phandalin into the dark, treacherous depths where ancient secrets lie in wait. Phandalin, once a thriving mining town, now stands on the brink of chaos. Whispers of a shattered obelisk—an artifact of unimaginable power—echo through the hills and forests surrounding the town. As your party delves deeper into forgotten mines, hidden dungeons, and mysterious ruins, you'll uncover a plot that threatens not just Phandalin but the very fabric of reality itself. This adventure is perfect for players who love a mix of exploration, combat, and rich storytelling. Whether you're new to Dungeons & Dragons or a veteran player looking for your next challenge, Phandelver and Below offers a blend of classic dungeon-crawling action with a deep narrative that rewards creativity and teamwork. Prepare to face cunning traps, battle dangerous monsters, and make choices that will shape the fate of the world above and below. With opportunities for roleplaying, problem-solving, and tactical combat, this campaign promises an unforgettable experience filled with twists, turns, and epic moments that will have you on the edge of your seat.

Character creation

Creating your character

📜The main thing we use to create a character is using DnDBeyond. Additionally I do have pre-made characters for you to use in FoundryVTT as well. So no worries and no pressure. 📚 Only official books are permitted. #️⃣ I use my point buy system. All stats start at 8 and you have 27 points to place wherever. All points cost one point and the max you can put into one score is 10 (making a max of 18) after all 27 points are used then add your racial points. ❓ If you have questions or need help please don't hesitate to ask for help through either here or on my discord.
