About the Adventure

Adventure Description

Get started playing D&D5e with a veteran D&D player and dungeon master who has taught the basics of D&D 5th edition to hundreds of players since 2015.

There is no better time to learn the basics of the hobby or dive back in after spending years away. So gather your wits and weapons! In this classic Dungeons & Dragons adventure, you and your fellow heroes are tasked with a noble and urgent quest—rescuing a stolen villager from the clutches of sinister forces before it is too late.

As you traverse through the forests toward a long-forgotten tomb, you’ll uncover traces of the Delian Order, a legendary group of ancient knights whose oath-bound duty was to protect the innocent. What mysteries will you unearth in their ancient resting place? What dark forces could possibly be interested in such a forsaken sanctuary?

 

Technical Requirements

  1.  A working microphone / headset. Webcam is optional, but encouraged.
  2.  A free Discord and D&D Beyond account. 
  3. A quiet distraction free place to enjoy the game.
  4. A positive, friendly, welcoming attitude for all players. 

How to Prepare

  1. Sign up to the game to receive a link to join my Discord channel.
  2. I will send you access to the D&D Beyond Campaign where you will build your character before the session begins. Characters are built using a 27 point buy system and have access to every official book on D&D Beyond. Before the session, I will import your character into Foundry VTT where we will play the game.
  3. I will send you your own personal link and password to join the game on Foundry VTT. 

What I Provide as DM

  1. 29 years of TTRPG experience including 11 years playing fifth-edition and 5 years as a professional DM for hire.
  2. Full access to D&D Beyond and complete character integration into Foundry VTT. 
  3. Professionally designed battle maps from some of my favorite Patreon creators, complete with integrated animations and lighting effects on Foundry VTT.
  4. In-game sound track and ambient effects for an immersive cinematic experience. 
  5. Game-specific Discord server with Nitro for voice, video and game discussion among players.
     

Who will like this game?

This adventure is perfect for players wanting to learn and have fun playing one of the most popular TTRPG game systems. If you are interested in learning D&D Beyond, Foundry VTT, D&D 5e or are just interested in seeing what roleplaying games are about. I have a seat ready to welcome you.

I have a strict no discrimination policy at my tables and have had the joyful privilege of running games for folks with accessibility challenges such as cerebral palsy and clinical blindness. You are welcome at my table, whoever you are and whoever you wish to pretend to be during our adventures.

 

Character Creation Guidelines

Characters will be created in D&D Beyond where you will have access to all official Wizards of the Coast books and the character options within. If you would like to have one-on-one session to help build a character before the game, please contact me on discord to schedule this. I’m happy to help.

You are encouraged to write a short backstory (or concepts) for your character to 3-6 sentences. Ex: Maven Thornbow was the son of a fletcher in a small village near a dangerous forest. The village rangers did well to protect the village, but one night a werewolf rampaged through and bit his father, spreading the curse to him. His father chose exile over death and fled into the faraway mountains. Now that Maven is old enough, he seeks to find his father again and face him. Determined to break this curse and bring him home.

 

Gameplay Themes/Content Warnings

The Delian Tomb features themes of kidnapping, violence, ritual sacrifice and ghosts.

 

Looking for more adventure?

I run an open sandbox world that is full one shots and extended adventures set in the Hidden Forest Kingdom of Calenoth. Once you join one of my Calenoth setting games, your character will be playable again in any future session that you join in the setting. Start with a one shot and then join other parts of the campaign without the long term commitment of a many months long adventure!

Awesome DM

Chris is awesome. I am about 10 sessions into City of Brass with him and loving it. I previously played an epic two-year long campaign and a short 10-week campaign with him as DM. He is a great actor and role-player, brings life to characters and really works to incorporate your character backstory into the major story elements. He has a good balance of combat and non-combat and he has a thorough understanding of the game and the mechanics.

“This sounds like an overstatement, but I literally want Chris to be the DM of every campaign I do. His narrative skills and his understanding of what makes D&D fun for different types of players means that there’s very little dead-time, whether you are doing combat or RP. His ability to successfully balance the needs and storyline of all players means that I’ve never left a session feeling dissatisfied. Truly an excellent DM.”

After several outings with Chris as my DM I can confidently say that he is one of the best I have ever been at a table with. He is very talented at world building, role play interactions and always makes you feel like he somehow knew your character before you did. Would highly recommend booking him for any game
