About the adventure
This 5e conversion brings the absolute best of the legendary Greyhawk mega-dungeon to life. The Temple of Elemental Evil stands as a monumental landmark in D&D history, offering a masterclass in atmospheric dungeon crawling and dark fantasy. This sprawling complex is far more than a series of combat encounters; it is a living, breathing ecosystem of malice where the very architecture hums with the power of the primordial elements and ancient, demonic influence. Starting Level: Level 3. Characters begin with their full subclasses, ready to dive straight into the danger. The Ultimate Mega-Dungeon: Explore one of D&D's most iconic locations—a massive, multi-layered complex filled with secrets, traps, and ancient magic. A House Divided: The core of the experience lies in the internal politics of the four Elemental Cults. Air, Earth, Fire, and Water vie for supremacy, allowing clever parties to use diplomacy and deception as effectively as a sharpened blade. Atmospheric Horror: From the eerie, vine-choked ruins of the upper works to the mind-bending surrealism of the Elemental Nodes, the environment shifts to keep players in a constant state of wonder and dread. Grim Secrets: Uncover the dark history of the site's construction and the sinister forces that were bound beneath its foundations eons ago. Legendary Stakes: The campaign culminates in a desperate struggle to maintain the seal on a captured demoness, ensuring the world doesn't fall to the creeping rot of the Abyss.

About me
🎲 “Hold on, let me roll Persuasion first… success!” Hello, I’m Tyler — a storyteller, designer, and lifelong gamer with decades of experience behind the screen. My players describe me as Immersive, Supportive, and Masterful. I’ve guided hundreds of players through unforgettable games at conventions, on streams and podcasts, and in home campaigns across North and South America. I’ve collaborated with publishers like Onyx Path, Free League, Chaosium, and Helmgast, and I’m also a published writer and designer with credits in both indie and professional TTRPG projects. Whether it’s your first session or your hundredth, my goal is always the same: create a safe, inclusive space where your story matters. I invite you to explore my reviews and join a game to see why so many players return to my tables again and again.

How Tyler creates a safe table
Prior to your first session we’ll go over lines and veils (filled out anonymously ahead of time) so everyone’s boundaries are clear and respected. My goal is for you to feel safe, comfortable, and excited every time we play.
