About the adventure

Calling all thieves, burglars, and scoundrels! You have just received the opportunity of a lifetime: eleven full contracts with the Golden Vault, a mysterious criminal organization determined to do good in the world. You'll break into a museum, sneak through an impenetrable prison, steal jewelry from a notorious thief and a Feywild mage, and even liberate a legendary magical tome from an efreeti and his lackeys. Each contract provides the chance to test your skills, prove your mettle, and bring justice to this harsh world. Of course, you're not the only crew assigned to these marks, and your rivals aren't above playing dirty to get what they want. Do you have what it takes to beat them to the punch and become the most storied gang of thieves in the land? Join our talented scoundrels on a series of daring heists that will put your wits and skills to the test. You'll study blueprints, plan your approach, and pivot on a dime when things go wrong, just like a proper thieving crew. As you turn your eyes to bigger and better targets, the stakes will only get higher. Will you successfully steal the prize, will you get caught, or will someone else get to it first?

Additional Details

How to prepare

Playing at my table is simple! You'll need a microphone and a webcam, a free account on D&D Beyond and Roll20, and Discord. You can find campaign links for D&D Beyond and Roll20 on my Discord server. If you have character art you'd like to use to represent your character on our Roll20 virtual tabletop, send it my way and I'll set that up for you.

What I provide

⟢ No dice? No problem! My Discord server has a digital dice tray brimming with RNG dice, and you are always welcome to use D&D Beyond's virtual dice instead. ⟢ I have pre-generated character sheets ready for use—all you have to do is ask! ⟢ All sessions include ambient music streamed through Discord. ⟢ All my owned content on D&D Beyond is available to characters built using our campaign link. The library is too extensive to list here, and if you absolutely need a race, class, or spell I don't have, I'm happy to pick it up.

Gameplay details

Safety Tools ⟢ Session 0: We'll have a Session 0 for character creation, discussion of lines and veils, and collaboration on the overall tone of the story. Will this be a gritty anthology filled with races against time or the campy adventure of some goofy pickpockets? The party will decide that here. ⟢ Lines and Veils: We'll discuss these in our Session 0. If you're uncomfortable sharing yours in a group setting, you may DM them to me on StartPlaying and I'll incorporate them quietly. ⟢ Open Door: If you need to step out for a few minutes for a mental health break or to resolve a real-life issue, you are welcome to do so. ⟢ Breaks: We'll take a ten-minute break near the middle of every session.

How will character creation work

Character creation will take place in Session 0. At that time, we'll establish whose backstories are entwined, whose are independent, and how your characters know each other. Don't worry about sharing the details of your backstory with the whole party, though—everyone has secrets, and figuring out your party's pasts is half the fun of TTRPGs. (Just be prepared to work with me to fit your backstory into the world!) You'll start at level 1 and end at level 11. I will have pre-generated character sheets available on D&D Beyond upon request.
