About the adventure

Multiple travelers have reported being accosted by bandits on their way through the woods. They always have the same report, strange bird-like bandits who speak oddly and let their weapons do most of the talking for them. Now the daughter of a local merchant has gone missing on a trip back from the city and he believes these bandits are to blame. You've been hired to find the bandit's hideout and rescue the merchants daughter. You've tracked a group of bandits to their lair. You need to face down their boss, rescue their captive, and collect their stolen goods. Are you up to the task? Come learn to play D&D in this first level adventure. You'll get the chance to infiltrate a bandit hideout, avoid traps and alarms, fight the bandit leader and his lackeys, and rescue the kidnapped child from her captors.

What Mike_d20 brings to the table

I see tabletop games as a great opportunity for catharsis. We're here for different reasons maybe to learn something about ourselves, turn flaws into strengths, explore new aspects of yourself, or just escape from your daily struggles for a while. Whatever that is for you, I want to help bring it out in this space and have a good time while we do it. I make playlists for all of my campaigns so we can all vibe to some appropriate tunes while we play.
