About the adventure
This Mini-Campaign Will be run using the Adventurers League Ruleset, if you are unfamiliar i've included all the information you'll neeed on the discord server included in this post! Beyond the quiet village of Oakhurst lies a place spoken of only in whispers: the Sunless Citadel, an ancient fortress that was swallowed by the earth long ago. Now, rumors of treasure, strange magic, and missing adventurers have begun drawing attention to the ruins once more. Whatever lies within has remained hidden for generations, but not untouched. The journey will take you deep beneath the surface, through crumbling halls and forgotten chambers where danger lurks around every corner. Ancient traps still guard the ruins, while monstrous creatures have claimed the fortress as their own. Not everything you encounter will be eager to fight, however, and knowing when to draw your weapon may be just as important as knowing when to put it away. The Citadel is far from empty. Rival groups of goblins and kobolds battle for control of its ancient halls, each with their own motives, grudges, and secrets. Choosing who to trust, and who to deceive could change the course of your expedition. Every discovery may reveal another piece of a mystery that stretches far deeper than the ruined fortress itself. Whether you seek glory, fortune, answers, or simply the chance to prove yourselves, the Sunless Citadel offers all the danger and adventure you could ask for. But the deeper you descend, the clearer one truth becomes: some places are buried for a reason.

About me

What to expect
Preparing for the session
Before your first session: - Join the game's Discord server (Server Invite Link: https://discord.gg/KRmZEspBjj) - Make sure you can access Owlbear Rodeo. (Should be light enough to run even on mobile devices) - Make sure your microphone works and that you have a reasonably quiet place to play. I use Discord for voice chat, announcements, and between-session communication, while Owlbear Rodeo is used for maps and combat. You do not need a powerful computer or a complicated VTT setup. If you can use Discord and open a web browser, you're ready to play.
What Knights of The TableTop (Riley) brings to the table
I want my games to feel like you're sitting around a table with a group of friends telling an adventure together. I'll provide character voices, atmospheric music, occasional sound effects, maps, and everything you need to run the adventure. I put particular emphasis on making NPCs feel distinct and giving locations their own atmosphere. I have a strong understanding of the rules and will do my best to keep the game moving without constantly stopping to look things up. I enjoy tactical combat, and smart positioning, creative use of abilities, and good teamwork will absolutely be rewarded. At the same time, I'm not interested in punishing players simply for not knowing every rule. If you're new, I'll help you learn. If you want to try something unusual, tell me what you're attempting and we'll figure out how to make it work. Most importantly, everyone at the table gets a chance to contribute. I want players to feel comfortable taking the spotlight, but I also keep an eye on the table to make sure nobody gets left behind.

Safety
How Knights of The TableTop (Riley) creates a safe table
Player comfort is important to me, and I want everyone to feel safe speaking up when something isn't working for them. Before the game, I'll ask each player to privately message me their Lines and Veils so I know what subjects to avoid or handle carefully. You never need to explain why something is a boundary. During the game, we will use a simple X-Card system through Discord. If something happens that makes you uncomfortable, simply type X in the chat. You don't need to justify it, explain yourself, or ask permission. I'll immediately move the scene in another direction. After each session, I also like to check in with players and ask three simple questions: - What did you like? - What didn't you like? - What would you like to see next time? Your feedback helps me make future sessions better and ensures that the game remains a place everyone wants to come back to.
