About the adventure
The city of Baldur's Gate is a powder keg, and someone just lit the fuse: Duke Abdel Adriana is brutally murdered during a festival, throwing the city into chaos. As tensions rise, three key power brokers vie for control, forcing you to choose sides in a web of corruption, shifting alliances, and violence. It’s not just a murder mystery...it's a battle to prevent the city from plunging into a bloodbath!

About me
Hailing from Edinburgh, Scotland with a background in creative arts and video game development. I have been passionate about ttrpgs for over a decade. There is a unique magic found in the collaborative storytelling games like D&D provide and it is my great joy to help facilitate that experience for you. Whether you are new to the hobby, an experienced player looking for a consistent group or a returning veteran of the old days I can't wait to roll the dice together!
