About the adventure

Gather a band of heroes, venture into a mysterious dungeon, and face a mighty dragon. Dragon Delves celebrates one of D&D’s oldest traditions with ten adventures for characters levels 3-12, each centered on a dragon and its lair. Battle evil dragons, ally with good ones, and confront dilemmas where the line between hero and villain isn’t always clear. Where there are dragons in dungeons, there’s adventure. ... and we'll be playing our way through all of it over the next year, one 5-hour extended one-shot at a time. Feel free to join us for one, a few, or all of them! You can choose to keep your existing character and let me connect them to the storylines, or roll up a new character each time. TLDR: 5 hours each. Once/month. Keep your loot. Commitment: Optional. 🗝️This month’s Adventure:🗝️ Level 3 - Death at Sunset (Oct 2026) A century after heroes slew a Green Dragon, her ancient lair has awakened again - sickening the forest and claiming five villagers who vanished without a trace. Now, a newly hatched wyrmling has taken root in the corrupted grove, and only brave adventurers can uncover what has returned and put an end to it. Upcoming Adventures: Level 3 - Baker's Doesn't (Nov 2026) Level 4 - The Will of Orcus (Dec 2026) Level 5 - For Whom the Void Calls (Jan 2027) Level 7 - The Dragon of Najkir (Feb 2027) Level 9 - The Forbidden Vale (Mar 2027) Level 10 - Before the Storm (Apr 2027) Level 11 - Shivering Death (May 2027) Level 12 - A Copper for a Song (Jun 2027) Level 12 - Dragons of the Sandstone City (Jul 2027)

About me

"Travis is a great storyteller and integrates player characters into his worlds extremely well. His worlds feel real and it's very easy to get lost in the moment. One of the greatest feelings I have from his games is that I feel that I was there, instead of a quiet observer, I feel my characters have stakes and choices. Travis is a master at group building. He knows the characters well and suggests way to better mesh them together. All in all, it's probably the best experience I've had in D&D" Greetings Adventurers! My name is Travis and I've been makin' magic happen at the tabletop since the 20th century. If you like a fun & immersive table with heroics, traditional fantasy energy, player agency, and light comedy - let's roll the dice together!

Safety

How DM Travis creates a safe table

Safety tools keep everyone at the table comfortable, so the focus can stay on the game we all love! Breaks: We will take a 5min break roughly every hour. Feel free to take a break whenever needed, too! X-Card: Players can anonymously display an X card on the VTT game canvas if a topic comes up that makes them uncomfortable during play. If/when that happens - we simply fast forward or audible and get right back into play. Players can expect to go through a quick introduction & tutorial before play begins. We will discuss safety tools and topics to avoid during that time.
