About the adventure

The Sword Coast is under threat. Villages burn in the night, caravans disappear along lonely roads, and whispers spread of a growing cult devoted to a terrible purpose: the return of Tiamat, the Dragon Queen. What begins as a simple job soon draws a group of adventurers into a conspiracy that stretches across the entire region. In this epic campaign, your characters will rise from humble beginnings to become heroes who can influence the fate of the Sword Coast. Along the way you will face dangerous enemies, investigate the plans of the Cult of the Dragon, and travel through cities, wilderness, and ancient strongholds in a race to stop a world-changing ritual. This game uses the Tyranny of Dragons storyline (Hoard of the Dragon Queen and Rise of Tiamat) with adjustments to improve pacing and encounters. The campaign combines exploration, tactical combat, and strong roleplaying opportunities, with plenty of space for character development and meaningful choices. This table is welcoming to both new and experienced players. If you enjoy character-driven adventures, teamwork, and watching your character grow from a small-time adventurer into a true hero, this campaign may be the perfect fit for you.

About me

Hi! I'm a Dungeon Master for more than 20 years who loves running story-driven Dungeons & Dragons campaigns using official adventures. My focus at the table is simple: create a fun, welcoming game where players feel comfortable roleplaying, making meaningful choices, and watching their characters grow over the course of the story. I enjoy bringing published adventures to life by giving attention to NPCs, character moments, and the consequences of the party’s decisions. Whether you're a brand new player or a veteran adventurer, my goal is to make sure everyone at the table feels involved in the story. Expect memorable scenes, exciting challenges, and plenty of opportunities for your character to shine as the adventure unfolds.

What André Thibes brings to the table

In this campaign, I focus on creating an immersive and character-driven experience where your choices and backstories can influence the story. I enjoy bringing NPCs to life through roleplay and making the world feel dynamic and reactive. Players can expect a balance of roleplay, exploration, and tactical combat as the party investigates the plans of the Cult of the Dragon and works to stop the return of Tiamat.
