About the adventure

Welcome to Waterdeep, the Crown of the North, where a wondrous tale of urban adventure is about to unfold. Our story begins with the gathering of adventurers at the Yawning Portal Inn and Tavern. Volothamp Geddarm, the famous explorer and raconteur, has a quest for them — one that entangles the characters in a bitter conflict between two nefarious organizations. If the adventurers complete his quest, Volo rewards them handsomely. Yet a much greater prize lies hidden somewhere in the City of Splendours, waiting to be claimed You start the adventure as a band of friends looking for fame and fortune if you survive your character will grow from low level and progress through to at least 11th, the sky is the limit in this city of intrigue and excitement. An excellent starting block for new players wishing to learn D&D and more experienced players who would like to try out a new character build from the starting levels. This will be a long running campaign and new players are welcome to join in at any time.
