Rime of the Frostmaiden

About the adventure

The Icewind Dale has been trapped in everlasting winter for over two years now. The wrath of Aurin, the Goddess of Winter's fury, has awakened storms and blizzards, and caused the sun to never rise over this frosted land. The people of Ten-Towns are becoming desperate. With the implacable storms blocking them both by Land and by Sea, they can't escape. They need Heroes. This adventure is a pre-written module for D&D 5th Edition. I am currently reading through it, and I must say, I'm liking what I see. It takes place in the isolated region of Icewind Dale, and takes the characters from level 1 to level 10. I'll probably add some changes of my own to the setting and to the adventure itself, in ordr to make it a truly unique experience. Bring your warmest clothes!

How to prepare

You need at the very least a Discord Account, as that is what we'll be using to talk. Also hardware that can let you talk to us, so a smartphone or a PC with a mic. I'd also strongly advise having Wi-Fi connection or an unlimited data plan, as these games can potentially consume quite the bandwith. With this, you're set to play, everything else helps but it's not strictly required Ideally you'd want: >A Discord Account >A Roll20 Account >A PC (or Mac, or Laptop) that can run both >Headphones >A Webcam (absolutely not required to use it if you don't feel like showing your face) >A Microphone (many headphones and webcams come with one) >Stable Internet Connection with unlimited data (WiFi or some nice mobile plan)

What I provide

I have a roll20 plus subscription, so we can have some fun with dynamic lighting (realistic shadows and blindspots) on the combat maps. I'll also make sure to give out maps, handouts and notes that can be useful to explore your characters and the setting of Icewind Dale!

Gameplay details

This campaign is about surviving in a frozen land, and defeating the evils that inhabit it. There is going to be overland exploration, investigations of local misteries, fights with barbarians and lot's of COOL dungeons! Heheh
