About the adventure
### **Operation Deadfall** The shadow of Thay is spreading, and whispers of a secret operation have reached the wrong ears. As powerful magical forces move behind the scenes, you’ll be drawn into a dangerous game of espionage, infiltration, and arcane intrigue—one where the truth is often more dangerous than the lies. Szass Tam, the infamous lich-lord of Thay, is pursuing plans that could threaten far more than the lands surrounding Thay. Your party will need to navigate secret organizations, uncover hidden motives, infiltrate dangerous locations, and wield powerful magic as you attempt to piece together what Operation Deadfall really is—and who is pulling the strings. Expect a campaign filled with high-stakes investigation, explosive magical encounters, political intrigue, dangerous missions, and meaningful choices. Trust will be a valuable resource, because in a world of spies, necromancers, and powerful mages, the person standing beside you may be just as dangerous as the enemy waiting in the shadows.

I foster an inclusive space where character choices shape the narrative, player synergy shines, and everyone gets their moment in the spotlight. What to Expect at the Table Smooth Pacing: Advanced Foundry automation for instant damage, saves, and spell tracking so turn times stay fast and engaging.

How Garion creates a safe table
Creating a fun, respectful, and inclusive space is my top priority. Before we begin, I’ll check in with players using tools like Lines & Veils, or a quick Session Zero discussion to make sure everyone is on the same page about tone, boundaries, and comfort levels. You are always welcome to speak up—during or after a session—if something makes you uncomfortable or you'd like to adjust the experience. I want you to feel safe, heard, and supported at the table. Hate speech, harassment, or disruptive behavior of any kind will not be tolerated. This is a table for everyone, and we're all here to have a good time together.
