About the adventure
Recover lost artifacts. Unravel the mystery. Decide who deserves the power. A collection of powerful magical items has been stolen, and dangerous artifacts have vanished into the world. You’ve been hired to recover them, but nothing about this job is simple. As you chase the trail across Faerûn, you’ll uncover dark secrets and a web of questions: Why was this forgotten college really targeted? Why does your employer seem more afraid than angry? And who, really, are the right hands to have these curiosities? This is a story-rich campaign blending mystery, tension, whimsy, and moral ambiguity. Expect immersive roleplay, faction intrigue, arcane oddities, and moments where your choices truly matter. Your actions will shape the world, the fate of the artifacts, and the legacy your character leaves behind. After all, finders keepers... right? This campaign features: • Morally gray choices that shape the world, factions, and ending • A mystery-driven story with player agency at its core. • Whimsical and dangerous magical artifacts, each with unique effects and consequences. • Dynamic roleplay and social intrigue, where your words carry weight. • Creative, tactical combat with custom monsters, traps, and encounters. • Custom items and puzzles, designed to make you think and work together. • Immersive FoundryVTT experience with animated maps, lighting, music, VFX, sound design and more. • A game that reacts to your choices and remembers them. This campaign begins small (a theft, a few strange relics here and there) but the deeper you go, the wider the world opens. Expect the tone to shift from grounded mystery and arcane oddity into something far-reaching, reality-bending, and deeply character-driven. The road to level 20 leads through choices that change the world. Whether you're here for drama, heroism, chaos, or comedy, your character will shape the story. This is a passion project, meticulously built over hundreds of hours, and tested through multiple groups. New players are welcome. Session 0 is free! If the listed time doesn’t work for you or you have questions, feel free to reach out! New groups can be arranged!

About me
Gather 'round, and let’s tell your tale. My name’s Jaidyn, a professional writer with a lifelong passion for TTRPGs and immersive storytelling. I’ve written countless stories and crafted many D&D campaigns over the years, and now I’m channeling that expertise into hosting some unforgettable TTRPG experiences. My focus is ever on player engagement and collaborative narrative, tailoring each session to bring out the best in your characters and group dynamic. I run my games through FoundryVTT utilising a huge library of sounds, maps, tokens, effects a more. Expect an experience as immersive as TTRPG can be! Whether you have a specific campaign in mind or need a little inspiration, I’m happy to run any D&D adventure you’d like. If you’re unsure where to start, I’ve spent hundreds of hours refining my own custom campaign (ready to launch in Foundry!) that is a balanced experience of rich world-building with dynamic gameplay in the world of Faerun. I relish creating vibrant settings, memorable NPCs, and branching storylines that adapt to your choices, and most importantly, watching my players have a blast! Fun is no.1. Let’s craft a tale that’s uniquely yours! P.S. I'm super approachable, no stress, message me with any questions or concerns and I'll get back to you asap :)

Creating your character
You’ll be invited to our Discord upon signup to meet your party, ask questions, and prepare. We’ll create characters together in a free Session 0, covering optional rules and light backstory. Doing this as a group is encouraged for a cohesive party, but not required. All official 2024 content (plus some UA) is allowed; older material is fine if adapted to 2024. Use point buy or roll, whatever you prefer!
Don’t worry if you’ve missed the first sessions! This is a long campaign and the story is just starting to unfold, we're not even out of the prologue! There’s still plenty of room to make your mark. New characters are worked into the story with care, and I’ll help get you up to speed in a way that feels natural and exciting. You won’t be dropped into the deep end, just come jump in!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
All you need is: • A laptop or desktop computer • A web browser • Discord • Microphone A pre-prepared character on DnD Beyond can be imported but starting from scratch is completely fine!
What Jaidyn brings to the table
- Immersive FoundryVTT setup – maps, lighting, sound, VFX, tokens, puzzles, traps & more. - A handcrafted, reactive world – choices matter and consequences evolve. - Distinct NPCs & factions – voiced, motivated, and memorable. - Creative encounters & puzzles – tactical combat, clever challenges, rewarding problem-solving. - A flexible, player-driven style – your choices shape the story. - A welcoming, collaborative table – for roleplayers, tacticians, and storytellers alike.
Homebrew rules
We have a few little homebrew rules: - Intimidation checks can alternatively be made with strength instead of using charisma (charmisa still available). Scary barbarians! - Crit fail rules. If you roll a 1 to attack, something bad may happen! This goes for npc's and monsters as well! - Flanking, specifically a variant that grants +2 to attack rolls for the flanking members. - Stealth, insight, perception and investigation ability checks are made blind (you can't see the result) so the dice don't give meta knowledge. If you don't notice any traps, you won't know if it was because you rolled a 1, or because there actually aren't any, just like your character!
