About the adventure
Are you new to D&D and not ready to commit to a full campaign yet? Or, you do not have time for a full campaign. This campaign will take place in and around the Greypeak Mountains in the eastern portion of Faerun (part of the Forgotten Realms). Following the defeat of the Horde of the Dragon Queen, various parties have set out to track down the treasures the Horde hid across the landscape. You have been contacted to aid in this endeavor, but other groups are also searching for these treasures, including goblins, ogres, and giants. This campaign will take the party from 1st to 5th level over a period of 6 to 8 weeks. The adventure will rely upon D&D Adventure League modules for Season 5.

About me
I started playing D&D with 2nd edition. I didn't play for a long time, and started playing again with 5th edition at the end of 2019. I have considerable experience as a DM in both editions.

What Jeffrey Baker brings to the table
I will bring a well-prepared campaign and an in-depth knowledge of the rules to the table. I create an atmosphere that is open to all players and make an effort to give everyone their moment on center stage. D&D has been described as cooperative story-telling, which is the approach I try to take in running tables.
Homebrew rules
Drinking a potion is a bonus action, but if you drink a healing potion as an action you will get the maximum possible hit points restored.
