About the adventure
Welcome to Icewind Dale! The sun hasn't risen in two years. The Ten Towns of the frozen north are dying, slowly, quietly, one frostbitten soul at a time. The people who survive it are starting to do desperate, dangerous things. You are not heroes yet. You're survivors with unfinished business, drifters, locals, and outlanders thrown together by bad luck and worse weather. But somewhere beneath the ice, something older than Auril is stirring. And if nobody stops it, "frozen tundra" becomes the least of your worries. Rime of the Frostmaiden is a survival horror adventure wrapped in a frozen open world. Expect atmospheric tension, morally complex NPCs, and moments that genuinely feel like campfire ghost stories. I run games with full voice acting, a "yes, and" attitude toward player creativity, and a table culture built on trust, laughs, and the occasional dramatic death stare across the virtual table. New players are absolutely welcome! I love helping people fall in love with this game.

About me
Hi! I'm Nick, and I've been a forever DM since before I knew that was a thing. I grew up on cartoons like Regular Show, Edd Edd and Eddy and Adventure Time, the kind of storytelling where (in some) the stakes are real, the humor is sharp, and somehow a mundane moment turns into an interdimensional crisis. That's the energy I bring to the table. I run games where NPCs have opinions, the world reacts to what you do, and no two sessions ever feel the same. Outside the game I'm a Youtuber, streamer and educator, which means I've spent years learning how to read a room, hold attention, and make characters feel alive. When you hear an NPC at my table, you'll know them. When you make a bold call, I'll find a way to make it land. I also run games with my IRL group on YouTube (D20 Dilemma: https://www.youtube.com/@D20Dilemma ) if you want to see exactly what you're signing up for before you commit. I run in English and Macedonian, so if you've ever wanted to play D&D in your native tongue, reach out!

Creating your character
Let's team up to craft a level 1 character that’s not only thrilling for you to embody but also fits seamlessly into the setting and theme of the campaign. We can hop into a private voice call and work through the details together. Once we’re ready, we’ll dive into Roll20 to set up your interactive character sheet. I'm here to support and inspire all your character concepts and backstories. If you’re already comfortable with Roll20's character creation process, I’d be glad to provide you with a blank character sheet so you can customize it on your own!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players will need Roll20 for rolling online dice and Discord for online voice communication, as well as a decent quality microphone or headset.
What Nick brings to the table
As the Game Master, I’m committed to providing a rich and engaging experience for all my players. Here’s what you can look forward to: First, I have a Roll20 Pro subscription, which grants you full access to a vast array of Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition resources. You won’t need to worry about missing any specific rulebooks or materials; everything is readily available for your convenience. Additionally, I have nearly every D&D 5E book at my disposal, allowing us to explore a wide range of options for character creation, spells, and adventures. This ensures we can tailor the experience to suit your preferences and make the most of the campaign. To enhance our sessions, I curate background music that complements the atmosphere and mood of our adventures. Whether we’re navigating tense situations or exploring serene landscapes, the right soundtrack will help immerse you in the story! I also bring my acting and improv skills to the table, infusing life into non-player characters and crafting a dynamic narrative. My goal is to make every encounter unique and memorable, so you truly feel like you’re part of an expansive world! Lastly, I’ve set up a dedicated Discord server for our group, featuring channels for roleplay, character details, player feedback, and casual chat. This will give you a space to delve deeper into your character’s backstory and aspirations.

How Nick creates a safe table
In every single one of my games, I take great care to make sure everyone is having the best time possible, and my messages will always be open to anyone at any time that want to bring anything up to me. During my games, we have a regular half time break to either refill on snacks or talk about what comes next in the session. When you are in my games you can be sure that you will always have a person to be here, hearing you out and accommodating accordingly to your needs!
