About the adventure
Run by a 5★ DM with 850+ hosted sessions and a focus on immersive roleplay, fast combat, and memorable storytelling. As a welcome bonus, your first session is FREE so you can get a feel for my DMing and the party! Beneath the unyielding night sky, you stand before a towering glacier and recite an ancient rhyme, causing a crack to form in the great wall of ice. Beyond this yawning fissure, the Caves of Hunger await. And past this icy dungeon is a secret so old and terrifying that few dare speak of it. The mad wizards of the Arcane Brotherhood long to possess that which the god of winter’s wrath has so coldly preserved—as do you! What fantastic secrets and treasures are entombed in the sunless heart of the glacier, and what will their discovery mean for the denizens of Icewind Dale? Can you save Ten-Towns from the Frostmaiden's everlasting night? While having a basic knowledge of the rules is certainly helpful, it is not required. No downloads are required, but you will need an account on Discord. You can find the basic rules here: https://dndbeyond.com/sources/basic-rules Discord: https://discord.com/ This adventure starts at level 3!

About me
Welcome, adventurer! I'm Craig, your Dungeon Master and dedicated guide through the realms of imagination. With a lifelong love for storytelling and fantasy, I’ve made it my mission to run immersive, character-driven games where every choice matters and no two sessions are ever the same. As a DM, I focus on player agency, rich roleplay, and dynamic worlds that respond to your actions. I draw inspiration from mythology, epic fantasy, and a whole lot of late-night dice rolls to craft campaigns full of heart, humor, and high-stakes drama. Whether you’re a battle-hardened hero or brand new to the game, I’ll make sure you feel welcome, empowered, and part of something unforgettable. I design everything—from cities to dungeons—with care, always aiming to create moments that stick with you long after the session ends. So grab your dice, ready your character sheet, and join me at the table. Let’s tell incredible stories, face impossible odds, and share laughs along the way. I can’t wait to roll with you. https://linktr.ee/craigdnd

Creating your character
We start at level 3 and finish at level 14! We will make characters together and have them all setup and ready for start time!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Our game is ran on Foundry VTT which requires only a web browser! We will speak through Discord! Please have a decent mic and stable internet connection!
What Craig brings to the table
I do plenty of character voices, we use music and ambiance in our games. We mostly keep combat quick and simple but also very dangerous. We use the rule of cool often. We have VERY roleplay heavy games!
Homebrew rules
- No flanking rules are used to keep combat simple and quick - Bonus action to drink a health potion, Action to feed it to someone else. - Spell scrolls can be used by anyone even if you're not a caster and/or it's not on your spell list you require a successful Arcana check for it to work. - Nat 1s and 20s apply in roleplay aswell as in combat so nat 1s always being a failure for example. - Moving through enemies' space during combat is difficult terrain and follows opportunity attack rules as normal. Allies' space costs nothing more.

How Craig creates a safe table
I try to create a fun, friendly game for everyone. My thriving server is filled with my current players and players who are no longer part of my games but were happy to stick around. Everyone is nice and happy to help/chat if there are any concerns, queries or issues. Of course my DMs are always open and I'm usually very responsive.
