About the adventure
When famed mountaineer Deswin Oakenbell vanishes in the icy peaks, his bumbling but big-hearted brother Peppin hires you to brave a frozen wilderness hiding far more than snow and silence. What begins as a rescue mission quickly becomes a chilling mystery—one where the cold isn’t the only thing hunting you. Whether it's your first roll of the dice or one of many, no experience is needed, seriously! I love introducing beginners to D&D and making sure everyone feels welcome and seen at the table. You will be stepping into a living world where your choices matter, your ideas shine, and your character’s journey feels personal. ** Whether you're brand new or well-travelled in the realms of adventure, I’d love to guide you through this one of a kind adventure. Let’s make some memories in the frozen frontier. See you on the mountainside! ❄️

About me
Heyy heyy! Glad to see you here! I've been DMing for 3 years now and I now DM at my local game store! Although I'm no veteran, I fell in love with the game quickly and absorbed it's rules like a sponge. I have been told by my players that I truly was able to get them in the right mood and mindset with my storytelling and the atmosphere I create at the table whether through music, lights or the small things I add to fit the theme. I love DMing and I hope to have you join my table so we can tell great stories together!

Creating your character
* Level: Start at Level 1 (advancement throughout the campaign). * Ability Scores: Point Buy * Allowed Sources: Official 5e books (when in doubt, reach out! :) ) * Starting Equipment: Standard class/background equipment + 1 healing potion + 1 special trinket (this could be an heirloom, a keepsake, or a sentimental item that has no mechanical effect but adds to your character's story) + 1 common magic item of your choice * Homebrew classes or subclasses: Not used in this adventure * New Players Welcome: I will happily walk you through character creation before our first session and provide beginner-friendly options, cheat sheets, and guidance.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
To be able to play, you will need: * A Discord account (I will be sharing with you the link to the server we'll be using) * A Roll20 account (no subscription needed) * A character sheet (I will give you guidelines on how and where to create your character)
What Lucy Moon brings to the table
* Clear, patient guidance if you’re new * Supportive table culture (zero tolerance for any kind of hostility towards other participants) * Cinematic combat described vividly and with respect of your boundaries * Character-driven storytelling and fail-safe/fail-forward style in storytelling * Handouts, maps, and tools to help you visualize the world without spoiling the theatre of the mind * Flexible roleplay space where your creativity sets the tone * A DM who genuinely loves creating fun, cozy, chaotic, heroic moments for players
Homebrew rules
* (Optional) I like to have stealth checks and sometimes even perception checks blind to the player so that the result doesn't affect the progression of the action, good or bad. (I think it makes things more realistic) (We can remove or keep this rule if you do not like it ofc!) Ex. You're walking in a forest, it is late and it is getting darker by the minute. You notice a slight glow that you perceive from the corner of your left eye. [Perception check for DM eyes only] Focusing your vision and looking through the darkness you manage to notice that this glimmer came from what looks like the eyes of something... living. You get close with sword and shield drawn... only to realize that it was just a bioluminescent mushroom (nat 1, you thought it was something dangerous but it was really inoffensive) * (Optional) Death saves are rolled between the concerned player and the DM to keep the tension high (this homebrew rule could also be removed if you do not like it)
