About the adventure

Tonight, the surface world celebrates the Ceremony of Light, unaware of the shadows stirring far below. Deep in the endless gloom, a drow matron has bound herself to an ancient, malevolent power, one that demands unthinkable sacrifices for dominion over both shadow and light. Now, drow eyes turn to the surface… This journey takes heroes from the tranquility of the surface into the perilous labyrinths of the Underworld. Prepare to face chilling horrors, negotiate with strange and dangerous factions, explore awe-inspiring yet deadly caverns, and battle to stop the relentless Rise of the Drow.

About me

Hi! My name is Clay and I'd love to GM your game! I’ve been running 5e since 2017 and have been playing since 2016. I GM an IRL game and do one-shots with friends when scheduling allows but that's not often enough. I own several games and love to try out new games.
