About the adventure
In “Ashes for Ozem,” you take part in a group of Whispering Way cultists assembled by the grave knight Seldeg Bhedlis to recover a powerful artifact, which lies hidden in the catacombs beneath Fort Ozem. While your superior is less than forthcoming about the purpose for wanting the artifact, he grants you access to an extradimensional library to plan your assault and warns you that the fort isn't as abandoned as it appears. The adventure starts with a meeting of your fellow dark agents and the man who called on you for a briefing on your appointed mission. This meeting is followed by researching the materials given to you and planning the infiltration of the crusader fortress.

About me
Hello and welcome, folks! My name is Mark, I am 24 years old, and I have been DMing Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition for 8 years. I have always been a fan of fantasy since I was a kid watching the Lord of the Rings trilogy and playing Warcraft 3 on our family PC. I vividly remember my friend (whom I still play with) bringing his brother's D&D 3rd edition books and creating characters, only to make new ones every time we wanted to play again. Furthermore, I later stumbled upon a little known show called Critical Role and got hooked on the idea of cooperative storytelling, adventure and role-play. Re-discovering what D&D was had sent me down a rabbit hole into fantasy media like never before, and still has me hooked. I live in the Central Europe Timezone (CET) and I usually run games at 6:00 AM or 6:00 PM, my time. I am willing to run at games at any other time besides night-time hours (10pm-5am CET). I welcome all players, and love teaching the rules of 5th Edition D&D to newcomers. Not only that, but I am confident in my knowledge and experience with the system and can guarantee a smooth game, no matter how complex a situation arises. New or experienced to Tabletop RPGs, I cannot wait to have the opportunity to play with you and unravel the amazing adventures you will set upon.
