About the adventure
📖Learn to Play Dungeons and Dragons 5e 2024 step by step📖 "Tom is a talented and wonderful GM. His guidance of character and story is masterful. Weaving character plots and personal tweaks seamlessly into printed material (I have only played Icespire peak with him so far) gives the world and the story a depth that I find rewarding. His combats are smooth with excellent soundtracks the add ambiance without overpowering the mood. He has a wonderful balance of player agency while still moving the story forward and how he resolves skill checks and narrative events are as fun as they are insightful. I really cannot recommend him highly enough, it is one of my favorite tables to have sat at as a player. " - Luke 🗺️Exploration of Drakkenheim🗺️ 🕵️Find what has drawn you to this destroyed city 🕵️ 💜Can you hold on and face the world ending dangers?💚 About the Story: Fifteen years ago, a falling star struck the city of Drakkenheim, reducing it to a shattered ruin shrouded in a strange, shifting magical Haze. Within its broken streets and collapsed towers, reality bends unpredictably, and the air itself hums with dangerous arcane residue. Among the rubble lies delerium mysterious crystalline material both beautiful and volatile, coveted by all who dare enter. Now, the city is claimed not by a single power, but by competing factions and desperate fortune-seekers. Military remnants, arcane scholars, zealots, and opportunists all carve out fragile footholds amid the ruins, each pursuing their own goals in a place that resists being controlled. You are drawn into this living ruin as scavengers, survivors, and adventurers. Every expedition into Drakkenheim brings risk and reward in equal measure where lost treasures, hidden dangers, and impossible discoveries wait in the shadows of a broken world. Welcome to the world of Drakkenheim, with an adventure set for the majority in this one city from Lv1 to Lv13 and perhaps beyond. You'll meet many interesting NPC's & factions with their own plans for the city and it's wealth. And best monsters adapted to the wasteland they now call home. In short, only the brave or foolish would try to tame the city and it's many denizens. Whether you are beginner or a veteran, I'll happily help you along with character creation, learning the rules, learning Foundry and any other aspect of the game.

About me
⏰My Timezone is CET/CEST (Brussel-Europe)⏰. And yes I do sleep at night.😂 If you want to know who Tom is and what he brings to the table in regards to his Storytelling style, have look below or send a personal message via Startplaying Games or visit The Gaming Peeples Discord channel via this link: https://discord.gg/YBKGg3c5qN ☀️ ABOUT STORYTELLER TOM ☀️ 43y-He/Him🍟 Greetings and Salutations, I'm Tom from the sunny country of Belgium (Antwerp) where I live with my girlfriend and our 2 cats Louis & Minnie. Besides living a 'normal life', I'm a Storyteller with a passion for over 27 years of non stop telling tales. I love playing in roleplay Heavy, sandbox orientated campaigns, with focus on player character development, who make the world their own. While interacting with interesting and engaging NPC's with their own unique stories and silly voices. Plus I love adding lot's of improv and unexpected solutions to many obstacles our players face during our stories. In 2021 during the Pandemic, I landed in a burnout, due to my work taking over my life. Running over 60 to 70 hours per week for a job with no benefits nor any thanks given. So I decided that in May 2022, that all would change and I would build upon my passion for storytelling. This with my own brand The Gaming Peeples.
