The Wild Beyond Witchlight | *NEW* Official D&D 5e Adventure

About the adventure

Something Wicked This Way Comes Once every eight years, the fantastic Witchlight Carnival touches down on your world, bringing joy to one settlement after the next. Its owners, Mister Witch and Mister Light, know how to put on a good show. But there's more to this magical extravaganza than meets the eye! The Wilds Beyond Witchlight is a wickedly whimsical adventure primarily set in the Feywild plane that takes the party from level 1 to 8. The adventure adds two new player backgrounds: the Feylost (for characters who grew up in the Feywild) and the Witchlight Hand (for characters who work at the Witchlight Carnival), as well as two new races native to the Feywild: the mischievous fairy and the harengon, fleet footed rabbitfolk. Although the adventure has not been released yet, it's been hinted that the passage of time will be a heavy theme throughout. Be one of the first to experience this new adventure for the world's greatest roleplaying game! GM Style Dungeons & Dragons is a collaborative exercise where both the players and the DM work together to tell a story that will be remembered long after the campaign has concluded. My number one rule is every action you make should take the fun and enjoyment of everybody else at the table first, and your own second. Just a simple shift in mindset ensures that all participants have a good time! Roleplay is my favorite aspect of D&D's three pillars and I strive to create an immersive world that lives, breathes, and responds to the character's actions or inactions. Player's should feel that their character's actions matter and have real consequence to the progression of events. Minor combats are resolved with theater of the mind or sometimes a more narrative approach, while major fights will make use of battle maps for tactical decision making. Even though I started playing table top RPGs with D&D 5th edition, I greatly enjoy the old school mantra "rulings over rules". The rules should act as a framework to facilitate fun and drive the action forward instead of hindering player's creativity. Clever interactions with the environment and out of the box thinking should be rewarded instead of bogged down by rules as written limitations. I take everybody's enjoyment and comfortability at the table very seriously. Games are inclusive to people of all walks of life, and nobody should be made to feel singled out. I'm available at all times to discuss any issues that may arise. Have questions? Please don't hesitate to reach out and ask!

How will character creation work

Characters will start at level 1 per the adventure and will be created via DnD Beyond. We will work together leading up to session 0 to create characters that tie into the adventure world and the party as a whole. Please note that the adventure has not been released yet! After session 0 we'll continue to work together to create strong adventuring hooks as I get acquainted with the newly released module.
