About the adventure

"Storm King's Thunder" is a Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition adventure that sweeps players into a sprawling saga across the Savage Frontier, set in the world of the Forgotten Realms. The story begins with the ancient ordning among giants being shattered, causing chaos and disorder among their ranks. As different types of giants strike out to assert dominance, they endanger the smaller races that populate the realms below. Amidst this upheaval, players start their journey, uncovering clues and forging alliances to understand the mysterious force that instigated this giant uprising. Their quest leads them from isolated farming communities to the upper echelons of giant strongholds, presenting them with opportunities to explore, negotiate, and combat in a world teetering on the brink of war. Throughout the campaign, players will encounter a colorful cast of characters, each with their own ambitions and secrets. As they delve deeper into the lore of the giants and confront formidable foes, they will have the chance to influence the power dynamics of the North. The narrative arc of "Storm King's Thunder" is not just about battling giants but also involves solving ancient mysteries and preventing the resurgence of a long-forgotten evil. Rich with Norse mythology-inspired themes and epic storytelling, the campaign combines classic D&D dungeon crawling with large-scale conflicts and moral quandaries, offering a robust and dynamic experience for both new and experienced players.

How to prepare

Players will need a mic and headset for audio purposes. In addition, you will need to setup free accounts on Roll20 and Discord. It's recommended that your understand the basics of D&D 5e and read the player info for the setting not only for lore on the world but also additional character creation options.

What I provide

I have a paid Roll20 account so all the benefits of a Pro subscription using their API features. I have a subscription to CzePeku and Neutral Party battlemaps, Kenku FM for music & sfx, Discord for voice and community with other players in my games. For myself I am a tough but fair GM, I like to run challenging encounters that has a risk of PC death. I like to keep the rules light and approve of improv and thinking outside the box ideas. I enjoy doing character voices, creating boss mechanics and side quest activities.
