About the adventure

You (the party) have been recruited by the Neverwinter Adventures guild as a Copper Rank 1. Not many jobs you can accept at that rank. You ask the clerk and she points you to defending a cart that occasionally heads to Phandelveler to drop off supplies. It's leaves in 2 days, perfect timing. When you head out of the guild, a dwarf collides into you dropping a large map, causing it to unfold. You take a quick glance before he hastily picks it up. "Sorry gents and lassies. In a wee bit of a hurry. Name Gundren Rockseeker. If we ever meant again remind me I owe each of yeese a pint." as he runs away map in tow. The map scribbled with red ink encircling a mountain range near phandlin. In large text above it. "The lost mine of Phandelveler". You've heard the stories of the great treasures that laid dormant in that mine. Did this dwarf happen to find it?

About me

I’ve been rolling dice in D&D since 2018 and stepped behind the screen as a Dungeon Master in 2022—and I haven’t looked back. While D&D 5e is my home base (especially grim settings like Drakkenheim), I’m actively expanding my toolkit. I’m deep in the rulebooks for Cyberpunk RED, Traveler, Pathfinder 2e, and the Star Wars FFG system because I believe the right system makes the story better. I’m here to run the game you want to play. I sit squarely at the crossroads of roleplay and combat. I love when a tense negotiation feels just as dangerous as a sword fight—I’ve had players sweating over Persuasion checks in a basement full of stolen contraband, knowing the wrong word meant a knife in the dark. My table is about moments. Whether it’s a paladin wrestling with their oath or a crew just trying to pay rent, I’m here to make sure your choices matter and the world reacts.

Character creation

Creating your character

When creating your character I want you to ask yourself a couple of questions to really be immersed in the story. 1. Why did I sign up for the Neverwinter Adventures Guild? 2. Where did I hear the story of The Lost Mine of Phandelveler? 3. Why do I want riches in the lost mine? Creator Creations Rules 1. Level 1 characters - Any race, Any Class within the source materials is allowed. 2. 5.5e rules are what we are using so make sure to utilize the when creating your characters. 3. You are allowed 1 Common magical item from your backstory. 4. Try your best to create a detailed backstory. It doesn't need to encapsulate your entire life, but it does need to answer the earlier questions. 5. Homebrew material is prohibited please do not ask. Homebrew items will be created during the campaign not before.
