About the adventure
Step into the legendary fortress-library of Candlekeep, where every book holds a secret... and some secrets were never meant to be uncovered! In this anthology-style Dungeons & Dragons campaign, each adventure begins with a mysterious tome that draws the party into dangerous investigations, forgotten ruins, cursed villages, extradimensional spaces, and encounters with forces beyond mortal understanding. From eerie horror mysteries to high fantasy exploration, Candlekeep Mysteries offers a constantly changing journey through the vast lore of the Forgotten Realms. This game is perfect for players who enjoy story-driven adventures, roleplay, exploration, puzzles, and uncovering hidden truths. Expect a cinematic, atmospheric experience with richly described locations, memorable NPCs, tense combat encounters, and mysteries that slowly unravel over time.

About me
A long time gamer (and once a theatre kid myself) - Dungeons and Dragon's has become a staple in my every day life! I love to create and play with new people. Collaborating with others has led me to start playing as a Dungeon Master myself. From new players to seasoned vets- all are welcome at my inclusive tables!
