About the adventure
Nestled on the northern Sword Coast, between Neverwinter Wood and the Sword Mountains, is the town of Phandalin. Centuries ago, Phandalin was a thriving settlement with deep ties to its neighboring communities. But then bandits overran the town, and Phandalin lay abandoned for centuries. Only in the past few years have settlers built a new village on the ruins of the old. These townsfolk hope to grow Phandalin through hard work, camaraderie, and the shared purpose of building a lasting home. Threatening their efforts and their survival are bandits, brigands, and monsters. Are you brave enough to protect them? This will be an adventure from levels 1-12 including both the Lost mines of Phandelver and The Obelisk.

About me
Consistently one of the most recommended DM's on the site!!! Hello adventurers! I am Mallow, and I hope to be your new favorite DM. I have been playing 5e since 2015-2016 and have garnered a ton of DM experience through running Adventurers League (WotC organized play) at a local shop as well as the big conventions in Phoenix. My style tends to lead to comedy, humor and the "rule of cool" instead of dark, gritty, and RAW. A lot of my style focuses around putting a unique and intriguing twist on some of D&Ds most classic settings and campaigns.

Creating your character
Characters start at level 1. Point buy or standard array + fixed HP. Characters will be created inside of the D&D beyond campaign. Players are welcome to discuss classes before hand but there will be time in session 0 to build your character. We will be using the new 2024 ruleset.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Please have a Microphone and a stable internet connection. A headset is heavily preferred to avoid feedback. All platforms can be used as web only, discord being the only downloadable part of what we use. We will work out any technical kinks in the early sessions.
What Mallow brings to the table
I bring all source books unlocked on D&D beyond for character creation, a pro Roll20 account with fully immersive maps, and a ton of energy.
