About the adventure

Having recently arrived at the small village of Phandalin, you've been hired by Sildar Hallwinter to rescue his husband, Gundren Rockseeker. Kidnapped by a band of goblins and hobgoblins, he's been hauled off to Cragmaw Castle, a ruined castle on the edge of Neverwinter Wood. Gundren had recently found a map of Wave Echo Cave, the fabled Lost Mine of Phandelver. Sildar thinks he's been kidnapped because of this, and has promised you 100gp each, if you can find and return Gundren. (This adventure is adapted from Chapter 3 of the Lost Mine of Phandelver adventure into a one-shot adventure, designed to be welcoming and accessible for beginner players. It is for 3-6 characters of level 3.)

Additional Details

How to prepare

You will need a mic, and preferably a webcam, but if you don't have a webcam, that's totally okay. I think it just makes things more personal. Aside from telling me about your character, or making it yourself, you don't need to do anything else.

What I provide

I have a D&D Beyond subscription, and a discord server where we will play. We'll be using the D&D Beyond tools for dice rolling, so no dice are needed.

Content warnings

How will character creation work

Before the session, tell me a little about the character you want to play, and I will make a character for you on D&D Beyond, that you can claim. Alternatively, if you are familiar with D&D, you can join the D&D Beyond campaign and make your own character. Ability scores will be set using the standard array, or point buy. All characters will be Level 3, and from official materials (no homebrew).
