Intrigues in the Sword Coast

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

"The independent city of Baldur's Gate has been sealed shut to keep out hundreds of refugees from the neighboring land of Elturgard. However, the gates can't hold back news that Elturgard's capital has fallen, and that Grand Duke Ulder Ravengard of Baldur's Gate is missing-lost on a diplomatic mission to Elturel. The fact that Elturel's misfortune coincided with Ravengard's visit has left Baldurians wondering whether Baldur's Gate will suffer Elturel's fate." Come and join "Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus", the adventure that is the prequel of the events of Baldur's Gate 3, and unveil the mystery behind Elturel's disappearance. New players are welcome! I will gladly introduce you to the world of D&D.

How will character creation work

We will run the character creation process during our session 0, where we will agree on what would be the method used to generate their ability scores. We would probably go for either the traditional point buy with a few tweaks, or rolling die. Regarding the source material, players would be able to choose from the all the essential official content which would be shared in the game.
