About the adventure

Welcome to Dragonlance: Shadow of the Dragon Queen! Step into the legendary world of Krynn, a realm torn by war and shaped by the will of gods and dragons. In this epic adventure, you and your party will find yourselves in the midst of the War of the Lance, where the sinister forces of Takhisis, the Dragon Queen, threaten to plunge the land into darkness. A World at War – The Dragon Armies march, conquering all in their path. As the flames of war spread, you must rally allies, defend strongholds, and uncover ancient secrets that could turn the tide of battle. Will you rise as champions of Solamnia, stand with the mages of the Tower of High Sorcery, or forge your own path in a world gripped by conflict? Choices That Shape Krynn – This is not just a battle of steel and sorcery; it is a war of ideals, courage, and sacrifice. Will you fight for honor, for survival, or for power? Every decision you make carves a legend in the annals of Krynn—one of heroism, betrayal, or something in between. Challenge the Dragon Queen’s Might – Face terrifying draconians, cunning warlords, and the relentless power of Takhisis herself. Stand against overwhelming odds, forge legendary alliances, and test your resolve in a world where heroes are born through fire and fury. Join me as your Dungeon Master and step into a saga of war, magic, and destiny. The fate of Krynn rests in your hands—will you rise to meet it? Gather your party, ready your dice, and prepare for battle. The Shadow of the Dragon Queen has fallen… how will you fight back?

About me

Looking for a Dungeon Master who puts you in control of the world? Look no further! I'm Nick, and I specialize in crafting immersive, player-driven adventures that keep you at the center of the action. If you're keen to watch me DM before applying, I've recently started a youtube channel where I play D&D with my IRL friends that I originally got into the game with, take a look here!: https://www.youtube.com/@D20Dilemma Take control of your world – Your choices shape the narrative. The world reacts to your decisions, and you'll feel like you're steering the ship every step of the way. Reactive NPCs – Every non-player character responds to your actions and interactions, making for a dynamic, evolving story with unexpected twists and turns. Funny random encounters – Humor is never far away! From bizarre situations to unpredictable moments, you'll never know what's around the corner. Distinctive-sounding NPCs – With my knack for voices, you'll never confuse one character for another. Every NPC has their own unique sound and personality, adding layers of immersion to your adventure. Whether you're craving epic battles or hilarious encounters, I weave your backstory and goals into the heart of the campaign. My games prioritize role-play, and I'm all about the Rule of Cool—because if it's fun, it's happening! Let’s build a world together that’s as unique and exciting as your imagination!

I had the absolute pleasure of playing in not just one but two Dragonlance campaigns run by DM Nick, and I can confidently say he is one of the best Dungeon Masters out there. His ability to weave compelling narratives, create immersive worlds, and keep players engaged is truly remarkable. Nick has an incredible talent for balancing lore-rich storytelling with dynamic gameplay. Whether it was epic battles, unexpected plot twists, or deeply emotional moments, he crafted a world that felt alive. His deep knowledge of the Dragonlance setting brought Krynn to life in a way that made every session feel like stepping into an unforgettable tale. Beyond his storytelling, Nick’s DM style is supportive, fair, and engaging. He encourages creativity, ensures all players have their time to shine, and brings a sense of excitement to every session. Whether you’re a veteran player or new to tabletop RPGs, he makes sure that everyone feels included and invested in the adventure. If you're ever lucky enough to play under DM Nick, prepare yourself for an extraordinary journey full of laughter, intensity, and moments you'll talk about for years. He’s a true master of the craft, and I can’t recommend him highly enough!

Character creation
Creating your character

Let's team up to craft a level 1 character that’s not only thrilling for you to embody but also fits seamlessly into the setting and theme of the campaign. We can hop into a private voice call and work through the details together. Once we’re ready, we’ll dive into Roll20 to set up your interactive character sheet. I'm here to support and inspire all your character concepts and backstories. If you’re already comfortable with Roll20's character creation process, I’d be glad to provide you with a blank character sheet so you can customize it on your own!

What to expect
Preparing for the session

Players will need Roll20 for rolling online dice and Discord for online voice communication, as well as a decent quality microphone or headset.

What Nick brings to the table

As the Game Master, I’m committed to providing a rich and engaging experience for all my players. Here’s what you can look forward to: First, I have a Roll20 Pro subscription, which grants you full access to a vast array of Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition resources. You won’t need to worry about missing any specific rulebooks or materials; everything is readily available for your convenience. Additionally, I have nearly every D&D 5E book at my disposal, allowing us to explore a wide range of options for character creation, spells, and adventures. This ensures we can tailor the experience to suit your preferences and make the most of the campaign. To enhance our sessions, I curate background music that complements the atmosphere and mood of our adventures. Whether we’re navigating tense situations or exploring serene landscapes, the right soundtrack will help immerse you in the story! I also bring my acting and improv skills to the table, infusing life into non-player characters and crafting a dynamic narrative. My goal is to make every encounter unique and memorable, so you truly feel like you’re part of an expansive world! Lastly, I’ve set up a dedicated Discord server for our group, featuring channels for roleplay, character details, player feedback, and casual chat. This will give you a space to delve deeper into your character’s backstory and aspirations.

How Nick creates a safe table

Discussion, discussion, discussion! In every single one of my games, I take great care to make sure everyone is having the best time possible, and my messages will always be open to anyone at any time that want to bring anything up to me. During my games, we have a regular half time break to either refill on snacks or talk about what comes next in the session. When you are in my games you can be sure that you will always have a person to be here, hearing you out and accommodating accordingly to your needs!
