About the adventure

The land of Geoff lies in ruin. Hill, frost, and fire giants march unchallenged across the countryside, enslaving towns and burning villages to ash. The people cry out for salvation. From the caverns below, the vile drow weave their schemes, while in the high clouds and the storm-tossed seas, the great fortresses of Lyn Armaal and the Maelstrom thunder with plots of conquest. This is your chance to take back a kingdom. Step into a campaign drawn from the legendary 25th Anniversary Edition of Against the Giants, expanded with the towering challenges of Storm King’s Thunder. You’ll storm strongholds, crawl through sprawling dungeons, and unravel the dark alliance between drow priestesses and storm giant lords. Every corridor holds danger, every chamber hides a test of will and steel. What to Expect: Heavy Dungeon Crawling: True to the old-school roots, this is a crawl through vast, hostile lairs. Bring torches, rations, and nerves of steel. Rules As Written: Tactical play, no shortcuts. The dice fall where they may. Epic Stakes: Geoff’s liberation, or its final ruin beneath giant boots. The giants believe Geoff is theirs. The drow whisper promises of dominion. The storm lords stir in their halls of cloud and sea. But perhaps the heroes will prove otherwise.

About me

Welcome! I've been running games for over 40 years, and I've published material in the game industry before. If you decide to play with me, you'll discover a fun-forward game without having to drop the fun in favor of encumbrance. I tend to lean towards rules-as-written, but that's so we all start with the same rules. I will provide you with an experience that puts your character up front, with tie-ins to backstories and developing moments in the story that involve you directly. If you're looking for old-school style play with all the flavor of new editions and play styles, then I'm the DM for you.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

You will need a D&D Beyond, a Roll20, and a Discord account to play. Have a headset with a microphone available, and a laptop or desktop computer.

I provide access to all the books, a pro subscription on Roll20 and D&D Beyond, and access to a great game!

Safety

How Uncle DM creates a safe table

We use Lines & Veils, I have an optional Stars & Wishes option for every game. Every game involves breaks, and I have an open door policy about anything. We're here to have fun, let's make sure we can all do that.
