About the adventure
ā¢ Starts at level 1 and ends at level 11. ā¢ Tactical and deadly combat, urban exploration, and roleplay opportunities galore! ā¢ Collaborate and collude with factions. Veterans of the city guard, a heretical flock, insidious criminals, and scholastic mages. All will want your attention. ā¢ Save Drakkenheim! Or burn it all down trying. Embark on dangerous expeditions into the ruined city of Drakkenheim. Explore monster-filled ruins, haunted streets, shattered mage towers, baroque cathedrals, and even ancient castles. Face off against factions whose opposing objectives may clash with your characters' personal goals. Survive not only Drakkenheim's monsters and corruption, but also fierce political intrigue. Encounter all manner of otherworldly horrors. Battle undead husks, predatory beasts, and mutated monstrosities, or use cunning, ingenuity, and teamwork to survive and circumvent these threats. Dungeons of Drakkenheim follows a story line where your character's choices change how and why certain things happen. Ultimately, the story follows you, and if you survive the threats plaguing the streets of Drakkenheim, you may indeed save it.

About me
I have been playing D&D for over seven years and running games for the past five. It's my passion (read: obsession), and I aim to introduce more to this fantastic hobby, because it really should be shared with as many people as possible. My games usually contain a healthy amount of roleplay (as a voice actor, I just can't resist), tactically challenging combat, and I like to make sure that exploration is rewarding for each player.

Safety
How Samuel creates a safe table
Safety Tools: Triggers and content can be discussed openly or in private. General D&D violence and gore is a part of the game and cannot be avoided. Breaks are taken at natural points, but in extreme cases (ie. character death), they will happen immediately after to check in. Aftercare can be made available upon request. Session 0: Introduction to Drakkenheim, character creation, and discussion of any homebrew rule changes.
