About the adventure
The dragon Cryovain has been driven from the far reaches of the northern lands. In a search for a new home, they have settled on Ice Spire Peak. However, their presence has been at odds with the creatures who already call this mountain home. Now Phandalin and the other cities on the edge of the Sword Coast are best by monsters of all sorts. You and your band of adventurers must help to save the city of Phandalin, and to stop Cryovain as he terrorizes the mountains near the city. This campaign is intended for new and beginning players to D&D. Players will begin at level 1 and progress through level 7 by the end of the campaign. This is the perfect opportunity to learn D&D, to take a step up from previous experience in one-off games, and start your journey!
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.

How to prepare
Players will ned a mic, and a device that can access the internet in order to use D&D Beyond and Foundry VTT. It would be best of this device were to be a computer of some kind, as sizing, access to D&D Beyond and Foundry VTT works best on a computer over a phone or other mobile device. If a computer is not accessible we can discuss options and test out what device is available ensure successor the player!
What I provide
will bring content from D&D Beyond for all players, as well as Foundry VTT! I try to make my games enjoyable for all players at the table, and incorporating all players, ideas, and goals into the story told at the table. Especially hoping to work with newer players and introducing folks to DND, my goal is to explain rules, characters, spells, abilities, and skills with the most information possible to encourage players to explore their own characters and actions.
