About the adventure
Heroes of the Borderlands is a fun, light-hearted Dungeons & Dragons adventure designed specifically for new players. Your journey begins at the iconic Keep on the Borderlands, where you'll be tasked with helping the quirky residents with various quests. These tasks serve as a gentle and fun introduction to the core mechanics of D&D. As you grow more confident, you'll venture into the untamed wilderness surrounding the Keep and eventually the dreaded Caves of Chaos, taking on ever-greater challenges. Will you and your fellow adventurers be able to overcome these obstacles and become the heroes the Borderlands so desperately needs?
