About the adventure
🏞️ Start with a delivery run to Phandalin, a frontier town on the edge of civilization. 👁️ Uncover buried secrets and face goblin raiders, corrupt factions, and unseen manipulators. ⛏️ Explore the legendary lost mine—and what’s clawing its way out from beneath it. 🧠 Engage in story-driven mysteries, puzzles, and player-led problem-solving. 🌀 Step beyond reality into realms of cosmic horror that challenge the mind as much as the sword. 📖 Shape the future of a town—and perhaps the world—based on the choices your party makes. What begins as a routine delivery spirals into a deepening mystery. In Phandalin, danger simmers beneath the surface: goblins strike trade routes, townsfolk whisper of strange sightings, and the ground itself feels... wrong. It’s up to you and your party to uncover what’s really happening—and who (or what) is pulling the strings. Your path will lead you into ancient mines, overgrown wilderness, and realms that defy reason. You'll face enemies that test your courage, challenges that demand creative thinking, and choices that shape the fate of the people around you. At the heart of it all: the Shattered Obelisk—an ancient relic tied to an unraveling of reality itself. Whether you’re new to Dungeons & Dragons or a veteran storyteller, this campaign offers rich characters, dynamic challenges, and space for players to shape the world through their decisions. Every encounter can be approached through combat, clever thinking, or connection—and no two groups will experience the same journey.

Creating your character
Character creation will take place as part of Session 0 (or a one-to-one character creation before your first session if joining later in the campaign) so there’s no pressure to know how to create a character beforehand! And if you like, there are ✨pre-made characters available✨ for you to use if you don't want to have to worry about character creation. Characters will start at level 1 (or the party's current level if joining later) using the character options from the Player's Handbook (2024) which will be shared with you via D&D Beyond. Stats will be generated via the standard array.
The party are currently 4th Level and features: Human Paladin of Vengeance 🛡️ Dwarf Soulknife Rogue 🥷 Tiefling Eldritch Knight Fighter ⚔️ Aasimar Wild Magic Sorcerer 💫

Safety
How Wayne Ingram creates a safe table
Players will be provided with an online version of Monte Cook's RPG Consent Checklist to fill in before their first session. This will provide me with any details with regard to lines and veils etc. X, N & O's can be digitally messaged in chat or privately too. During Session 0 as well as building characters we will discuss any themes to expect to come up in the game as well as establish an agreed upon play-style and expectations of conduct. After sessions have concluded, players will also be able to share their stars and wishes for the game, ensuring that the overall experience for the campaign continues to be tailored to the collective table's tastes as best as possible.
