Dungeon Delvers 101: A Beginner’s Journey

Dungeons & Dragons 5e | One-Shot

About the adventure

Welcome to the Arcane Alehouse, where every adventure begins with a roll of the dice! Nestled deep in the heart of Fenrir Forest, the Arcane Alehouse is more than just a cozy tavern—it’s a gateway to untold adventures. Flickering lanterns cast warm light over wooden tables scarred by a thousand stories, and the air hums with the sound of crackling fireplaces, clinking mugs, and whispered legends. Travelers of all kinds gather here to share tales, forge alliances, and—most importantly—find work. Whether you’re a wandering rogue, a curious wizard, or a brave warrior ready to make a name for yourself, the Alehouse’s job board always has something for those willing to take a risk. This game is designed for new players who are just stepping into the world of Dungeons & Dragons. No experience? No problem! I’ll guide you through the mechanics, from rolling your first dice to making choices that shape your journey. The adventure begins as your party gathers around the job board, where three quests await. The choice is yours, and every decision leads to a unique and exciting experience. My goal as a Dungeon Master is to create a safe, welcoming, and engaging space for storytelling, teamwork, and fun. Expect a mix of lighthearted roleplay, thrilling encounters, and opportunities to learn as you go. Whether you’re here to test your skills, embrace your character’s story, or just enjoy a night of adventure with friends, the Arcane Alehouse is the perfect place to begin your hero’s journey!
