(One Shot) Learn to Play Dungeons & Dragons: Rosethorn

About the adventure

Dungeons & Dragons! The tabletop role-playing that started it all! If you've never tried it before, now's the time to do so and get in on the fun millions of new players are having every day. This adventure - from Sly Flourish's Fantastic Adventures - is a fun and straightforward mystery where players have to figure out who is behind the recent bandit attacks on a local village. It runs the full gamut of D&D - there will be combat, exploration, and role-playing aplenty depending on what the party wants to do. The goblin tribes outside of the small town of Whitespire have recently begun running devastating raids against trade wagons and farm folk. When the local sheriff seeks help to put an end to these dastardly robberies, the characters uncover multiple levels of mystery and subterfuge, and discover the secret behind the goblin attacks. As a bonus, all players will receive a free Audible code for the audiobook version of Fantastic Adventures, narrated by the GM, Rudy Basso!
