About the adventure
Hello! Would you like to go exploring every other week on the Sword Coast, looking for adventure? There is plenty to find, perhaps even a dragon. This is a mix of Lost Mines with a touch of Icespire Peak. It's up to you where it goes. You will start with a simple task: "Take supplies to outpost Phandalin for Gundren Rockseeker". Along the way, you may run into trouble ! Phandalin is a rough and tumble settlement ( think Western Outpost). They are a mostly friendly bunch, but trouble is brewing. Great beginner game, but still lots for more experienced players. There is a mix of homebrew with the option of carrying experience to Shattered Obelisk. My games are laid back with a hint of quirk, bad accents, intriguing characters, but it's up to you who you talk to, where you go. The rule of cool applies, so if you can think of it, then it's open to being added as a mechanic or action. Be inventive and ye shall be rewarded. Backstories will be included where possible so which can add interesting twists and turns to the story. It's all about you and your fellow players to explore where you want, taking into account that there is a friend to help!
Game style
Dungeon Crawl
A “Dungeon Crawl” is a scenario where players navigate a dungeon or labyrinth-like environment for the entirety of the adventure. It emphasizes battling monsters, collecting loot, and avoiding traps to survive to the end!
Theater of the Mind
“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.
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.

Additional details
How to prepare
Webcam optional ( some players feel more comfortable with voice only ) Mic Computer, tablet or phone (Shard awesome for mobile playing !). Shard access is free to use. Discord used for voice, or google meet. Other than that, just enthusiasm needed !
What I provide
Warning, I use bad character accents ( again, enthusiasm rather than talent !) I use Shard VTT, which is very intuitive to use, with maps and audio and unique dice. I can talk you through the set-up. Combat will usually occur each game, RP is as much as you want, and the game will be tailored to you. Every game I have played, I have been lucky to have laid back, inquisitive and enthusiastic players who all play with a sense of humour. So if you like banter, laughter and some silliness, then this is the game for you! Rule of cool definitely will rear its head, along with some homebrew playing. Combat is intense, though it's not always about fighting, sometimes just maybe run away ? It's up to you. Characters will be challenged by experiences, and could die, so think your options through well. Sorry, no PHB2024 :( but open to discussion on characters)

How will character creation work
Usually, players already have an idea of the character they want to play. I leave that up to the group. I have a chat with each player before we start to establish whether a full session zero is needed. We get to gameplay as soon as possible. So depending if its a completely noob group who want a session 0 to create together or people who have already got someone in mind this will be taken into account. I am happy to go through the characters if help is needed. Shard is very intuitive and easy to use for character creation, but again happy to walk you through it.
