Undead Siege - Level 12 Adventure - Part 2/2

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | One-Shot

About the adventure

The city lies under siege by an endless horde of the undead. As quickly as the bodies fall they rise again, battering the city walls, driving the last remnants of hope from the hearts of its defenders. But salvation is within your grasp. Just one mile from the city walls looms the Obsidian Spire, a dark and ancient tower. The source of the undead plague lies within, pulsing with malevolent energy, controlled by the sinister Lich who has made it their throne. Your mission? Gather your courage, form a strike team, and storm the Lich’s lair before the next wave of undead brings the city to its knees. Navigate treacherous traps, battle fierce guardians, and confront the Lich in their Sanctum. Only then can the endless cycle of death be broken.

Chris is an excellent DM who is doing a fantastic job of capturing the whimsical spirit of Wild Beyond the Witchlight. He brings the feywild to life with vivid descriptions and characters. He encourages RP and high levels of player interaction, makes sure that everyone gets a chance to shine, and is willing to reward unconventional solutions to problems. Highly recommended, especially for anyone looking for a more creative and character-driven DnD experience.

Chris is a thoughtful and engaging DM who excels at both storytelling and game management. As a player, you can expect a smooth onboarding experience—he introduces important details at just the right moments, keeping things immersive without overwhelming anyone. His preparation is top-notch, and he runs his sessions with a strong sense of pacing, which is especially impressive in a high-level campaign. Chris strikes a great balance between roleplay and combat, allowing space for character moments while keeping the action dynamic. He is also one of the DMs I have seen who implements the Rule of Cool proactively in his games. His integration of Bastions into the narrative is seamless and adds real depth to the world. Playing in one of his games is both rewarding and memorable.

Chris is an amazing DM. He's quick to go with the flow of the players but will also gently lead them along when they're stuck. He builds intricate worlds that gives his players ample choices to build their own adventure while still managing to get them to a satisfying conclusion. I really appreciate the way that he keeps quieter players involved without overwhelming them so that each player can play at their own level of comfort. He is the best kind of DM for a newbie who's feeling uncertain about starting their first campaign. At the same time, he is highly knowledgeable about the game mechanics so if you're looking for a higher level game, he'll keep you on the edge of your seat. I've played a number of games with him and I cannot recommend him enough.

How to prepare

Join the D&D Beyond Campaign, Roll20 Game & Discord Server, create your character and make sure you're internet and mic is working!

What I provide

This game has custom maps (via roll20), my DM style is very rule of cool and encourage discussion if you disagree with a ruling. I do limited voices (best to my ability) and am very good with ad-libbing content, so lets be creative!

Gameplay details

My style is often lighthearted and straightforward, but this session does involve more intense warfare and dark themes. I would not expect any upset but if you don't enjoy dark tense stories beware. I'll be available and very receptive before, during and after game play incase there is any content or themes you'd like to discuss.
