Fight the Frostmaiden!

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

Welcome to Icewind Dale, a frigid and unforgiving land in the far north of Faerûn. Known as the “Frozenfar,” Icewind Dale is an isolated and desolate region, far removed from the bustling cities of the south like Waterdeep or Baldur’s Gate. Beneath the eerie, shimmering borealis of the Frostmaiden, Auril the Everlasting, Ten-Towns struggles for survival, locked in an unyielding winter that has cast the region into a dark and endless frost. Ten-Towns is a collection of hardy settlements huddled around the frozen lakes, where fishing, trading, and scrapping together enough to survive are part of daily life. Each town has its own culture, leaders, and rivalries, and the endless cold has hardened many of its residents. Expect to navigate tense politics, dwindling resources, and even deal with strange cults devoted to Auril, as you help or hinder these desperate communities. Starting at level 1, your characters will rise to confront the horrors and challenges that Icewind Dale offers, from fierce wildlife to unsettling magic, all while uncovering the dark secrets that hold this land in winter’s cruel grasp. Whether you’re hunting dangerous creatures across the tundra or becoming embroiled in the intrigue of Ten-Towns itself, you’ll encounter all manner of trials, from frozen wilderness survival to navigating the human struggles of the townsfolk. The campaign will span the entirety of the Rime of the Frostmaiden module, but should you prove victorious, the adventure will not end there. The vast world of Faerûn will open to you, offering further exploration, intrigue, and stories yet untold. All are welcome at the table, whether you’re a veteran adventurer or just starting your journey. Together, we’ll brave the frost and uncover what lies beneath the snow and shadow.
