About the adventure

A silent night is upon the tower, the snow muffling all sounds under its white cover. The tower itself is abandoned, but serves as a landmark and safe resting place for travelers. You are part of a loose collective who have undertaken a task together—all spending the night in this tower, in preparation for tomorrow's journey. Gather a sleds worth of clay that has been seeped in the overflowing waters of the hotspring. The Apothecary's Guild will fund you handsomely enough that this harsh winter can be spent inside a warm house. Frostpelt Monkey Queen will be guarding the place as her own domain. After all she spends almost half of her day in the warm embrace of her private hotspring. ----- 🎺Celebrate your love for roleplaying either as a newcomer or long time veteran! ⛵This is a self contained prelude to a campaign in an adjacent Faerun, where everything is not exactly as the Forgotten Realms imply. 🦘Play a setup adventure at level 3 ❄️ Choose to enjoy this as its contained adventure or bring your character on to the full campaign! ☃️Be taken care of at a safe table!

About me

Heya! I'm Vlue (he/him) a 30+ Finnish game master. I work in video games, production and design as my focus. I've been running TTRPG's for 16 years, on average above one session a week. I've other passed or approaching the 1000 sessions mark. I love deep stories, a variety of characters and a sizeable helping of silly. Combat is kept brisk and with moments of interest, so that it stays away from the dull repetitiveness. Lets play, laugh and cry together!

Character creation

Creating your character

There are premade characters available awaiting in an abandoned tower for you to choose from. Make a level 3 character from official 5.5e content with: Array, Point Buy or Rolling

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Check that your microphone is working and check that you would be happy to listen to the quality for 3 hours every week. Have a discord and roll20 account. Discord links will be provided as you join the game. I will be using a webcam, it is not needed for anyone else but you are welcome to!

What Vlue brings to the table

I will provide you with living NPC's and an interwoven story. There will be both heartwarming moments and that tightness in your chest as the somber music comes on. Your character's lives are heavily reflected in sessions: events from your past, family, needs and wants. Roll20 pro and all official 5.5e content. Ambient music, and we will be doing a ton of roleplaying. Combat exists but is there to help tell a story rather than a focus.

Safety

How Vlue creates a safe table

We have a session 0 where we go through lines and veils that I have asked for prior, which can be added to whenever. We use digital X cards(button prompts, macros and dm's) We do aftercare. My DM's are always open and I am ready to jump out and in of the game as many times as is needed for the players to feel comfortable.
