The Depths of Undermountain

About the adventure

"In the city of Waterdeep rests a tavern called the Yawning Portal, named after the gaping pit in its common room. At the bottom of this crumbling shaft is a labyrinthine dungeon shunned by all but the most daring adventurers. Known as Undermountain, this dungeon is the domain of the mad wizard Halaster Blackcloak. Long has the Mad Mage dwelt in these forlorn depths, seeding his lair with monsters, traps, and mysteries. To what end?" This adventure begins with the players at level 5 or higher and has content that could lead them all the way to 20th level.

How to prepare

To prepare, I suggest reading the Player's Handbook and getting a basis in the rules. We will perform character creation together and there is no software necessary. You are required to have a discord account and a dndbeyond account.

What I provide

I will be bringing my dice, my miniature collection, and my extensive collection of both digital and physical d&d 5e books.

Gameplay details

Dungeon of the Mad Mage is an enormous dungeon crawl with a menagerie of different creatures and challenges within. I am a huge role-player and love to get invested into characters. There will be lots of dungeon exploration and puzzle solving in this dungeon. Combat will usually have multiple options for success.

How will character creation work

The characters will begin at level 5. We will create them in a free session 0 game so ensure that all of the characters work well together and that there is no obvious problems in the party. The goal of this session is to help me break the ice and learn what each player is looking for in the game.
