Rime of the Frostmaiden

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

A barrier of everlasting winter has surrounded the denizens of Icewind dale. With everyone trapped outside and no hope for escape, people are starting to get desperate and do everything to appease Auril the frostmaiden. Can society survive or will everyone just go back to barbarism. Or can anyone save the people of Icewind dale and defeat Auril before she grows even more powerful.

Game style

Roleplay Heavy

“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.

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 to prepare

Game will be hosted on discord. So players need at least a microphone and access to a discord account. Everything else will be provided for them. Players are free to create characters. It will be no problem transferring them over.

What I provide

This game will be played on Forge VTT. All maps will be set up. You can import your characters from D&D beyond. You will have access to all available 5e content, with maybe the exception of Matt Mercers Gunslinger. There will be music. I am a DM that knows the 5e rules very well, but rule of cool is always accepted. I usually tend to focus more on RP and narration rather than combat. I need to improve my combat prowess. This game is rather difficult though, so players can expect a challenge.

Gameplay details
