D&D Tyranny of Dragons Fridays (Beginner Friendly)

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

Join your own Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition Adventure Path! Individual players welcome. No experience with D&D or Fantasy Grounds necessary. A strange cult has been attacking settlements, across the North. Dragons descend from the sky, and the people flee in terror. True heroes are needed, to stand against the tide of chaos and destruction. Who will answer the call? Create a hero for the struggle ahead: a Dwarven Cleric, an Elven Ranger, a Human Wizard, a Dragonborn Paladin, or maybe a Tiefling Rogue. Curious about Dungeons & Dragons? Maybe you've played Baldur's Gate 3, or watched Critical Role? If you're itching to play, but don't know where to start, *this* is your game!

Game style

Rule of Cool (RoC)

“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.

Combat Heavy

“Combat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.

How will character creation work

Players may participate in a free 'Session 0' for character generation. Characters can be created in D&D Beyond, but we will work together to transfer their details to Fantasy Grounds. Character options will be limited to those found in the 2024 Player's Handbook.
