Phandelver & Below- The Shattered Obelisk-2024 Rules & Monsters!

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | Campaign

About the adventure

A small frontier town needs your help. A dear friend involved in a mining operation has hired you to deliver some goods to this wilderness settlement. A relatively simple job that will become anything but.... You will face dastardly threats that wish to find the treasures hidden in the small towns past, and eventually a malevolent cult that threatens this towns future. These threats may seem common at first, but you will pull the threads of a much larger conspiracy that could even threaten the whole of Faerun. Join me on a classic D&D adventure that has been updated and expanded to bring you all the way from level 1 to level 12. I want you to feel engrossed in the living world I'm creating for you. I'm hoping to do this with amazing visuals, dynamic battles, atmospheric ambience and music, and living characters to interact with.

Luke does a great job at feeding you enough info to feel immersed in the world without feeling like you're getting info overload. Has a nice casual manner than makes it comfortable for newer people. Recommended.

Me and my friends found Luke when we were looking to start a new campaign and we really lucked out! He’s great at keeping informed on the rules and making sound ruling, extremely approachable, considerate, knowledgeable, and willing to collaborate with players to make whatever fun creative experience you have in mind work. Also, his use of Foundy VVT is *on point*, and seamless. Would absolutely recommend to otherso, especially if you’re trying to get into D&D 2024.

Luke is a great DM who is both engaging and inclusive. He even offered a free combat encounter to get us use to the VTT and our characters. Highly recommend!

Additional details

How to prepare

Players will need a noiseless microphone and a computer with a decent internet connection. Players will also need a great attitude and a willingness to work together with the other players. Foundry, Discord, Forge & D&D Beyond accounts will also be needed and are free.

What I provide

First and foremost my love for the game and the setting. I enjoy helping people write their own stories and bring them to life within the world. An inclusive and friendly atmosphere to help everyone feel comfortable and have the best campaign possible. Years of knowledge and experience with game mechanics, roleplaying and VTT functionality. I run a fully optimized Foundry table with effects, animations and audio. I do try and do voices for all NPC's although its a work in progress
