About the adventure

The cold wind blows, far to the north of the swords' coast, the region of Icewind Dale and the 10 towns have been cut off by ice and wind, by the goddess of winter herself. In this desolate area, you will need to work together to survive, up here, while there are deadly monsters, they are not the only thing you need to worry about. The weather and the cold is as unforgiving as any owlbear. This adventure will be using the Heliana's Guide to Monster Hunting rules for tracking, hunting and crafting both allowing you to stay alive and to craft items and clothes to give you a fighting chance in the frozen north! I am Jen, I have ran this module once before and look forward to doing it again! I plan this to be a very survival based adventure but I am first and formost a rule of cool dm, I love payer creativity and if you can sell me an idea i am more than happy to give you a chance!
