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 is a constant source of speculation and concern.
You received a letter from a certain self-called adventurers-agent by the name of Sir Trehlas of the deep, he talked about how he was impressed by your deeds and would like to sponsor you in an expedition to Undermountain for the sake of adventure and discovery, and of course wealth and power for those who come out from Undermountain make great names for themselves in the world and can shape their surrounding with the status they will gain and control how their lives will continue. he even sent bags of coin saying those are just the beginning of what will be a very ludicrous partnership. in the end of his letter he asked you to join him in Waterdeep, specifically in his country home near the city where he will introduce you to your future companions and give you your first assignment to see if you will be great explorers of the dangerous depths
About The Game
In case you are unfamiliar with the lore of Undermountain this campaign will be a massive mega dungeon crawl that will explore the entirety of the mad mage's complex home, there will many exotic and weird locations, creatures, treasures and encounters to be had not all of them dangerous but most of them will be, all three pillars of DnD will take play in this module for every level in Undermountain has its own unique identity and feel, but of course combat will have a lot of time in the spotlight as is the nature of the dungeoncrawl so be prepared for that. that does not mean you cannot turn hostile situation to your favor using guile and wits, as long as the other party is willing to negotiate of course. sessions will take from 3 to 4 hours with them usually ending when there is a good spot to stop once we go beyond the 3 hour mark.
All experience levels are welcomed, if you are new to either D&D 5e, Roll20, or RPG's in general I will do my best to teach you the ropes and you don't have to worry about not knowing things, we all been there, as long as you have the want to learn I am sure we can get you on your feet by session 1. however do keep in mind that this game starts at 5th level so you will have quite a bit of abilities to keep track off so if you are very new you will need to do a bit more homework then usual
I'm quite knowledgeable in the rules of 5e and can provide smooth sessions without having to flip through the rulebook all the time. Constructive Criticism is always welcomed after sessions, I strive to make the best experience for my players but I will need your help to do so. Jokes and swearing are totally fine however racism, sexism, bigotry, and any other nefarious behaviors towards other players are not allowed at my table, respect all around goes places in keeping the group together and maximizing fun. And finally, this game does have adult themes as Undermountain has many terrible and gruesome acts committed in it so keep that in mind.
Character Creation
Dungeon of the Mad Mage is a 5-20 level module, so we will be starting at level 5 with a quite a bit of gold to equip your characters properly for the descent into the dungeon. I allow all official Wizard of the Coasts books to be used when making your character as long as it makes sense within the setting, except for the Tasha ability increases changes those are not allowed, any Unearthed Arcana or homebrew must be approved by me beforehand. We will be using a more buffed standard array for stats generation that goes like this: 16,15,14,12,10,08.
Characters will be made during session 0, I recommend you have a base idea in your head if you want but try and not build too much on it as we will be doing that during session 0 so everyone can get to know each other and make the characters together, this way hopefully we can have a smooth session 1 with everyone having talked to each other as players and can now roleplay with their characters
About me
Hello, my name is Zakaria, but you will probably call me Zak like the rest of my friends. I'm he/him, 21 years old with a strong love for role-playing, collaborative storytelling, and honestly just having a good time in general. I have been running and playing D&D for more than 3 years and I enjoy it very much. It always makes me happy to hear my players scream when a terrifying enemy approaches them, feel the nervousness in their voice when I ask them if they are sure about their next action and the multitude of questions they ask me, which shows that they are interested in the story and very immersed in it. However, what makes me most happy is when a player says that they really enjoyed the session.
Concerning Payment
Session 0 is totally free! we will get around and talk character ideas and teach any new players the ropes, after that you will have to pay 7.50$ which is half the amount declared in the post for session 1, and after that payment will be in full for subsequent sessions. Payment is always done before sessions within 72H of the end of the previous one (ex: You will have to pay 7.50 dollars within 72H after session 0).
Requirements:
Having a good mic is a must as we will be using discord's voice chat to talk in-game so get discord as well if you don't have it, decent internet helps as well, a webcam is not necessary but if you want to use it be my guest. If you want in on the Adventure then please send me a private message with your discord ID so we can talk more.
Public Mod Note
(Sedge):
All games to be located within a SINGLE thread. Please ensure you are following the posted rules.
Icewind Dale is a harsh and unforgiving landscape. It is the very edge of the explored world, the last stop for travelers and civilized society. The vast open tundra, bordered by the Reghed Glacier on the east and the Sea of Moving Ice to the west, is buffeted by heavy winds thick with snow. War is common, both inside and against the ten towns. With wood, meat, and plants all in short supply, Icewind Dale is a difficult environment in which to survive. Nevertheless, people persevere for summer always arrives, and there is the promise of daylight that keeps folk hopeful of a brighter future
However Icewind dale has been trapped in a perpetual winter that is getting worse every day. Ferocious blizzards make the mountain pass through the Spine of the World exceedingly treacherous, and this land has not felt the warmth of the sun in more than a year. In fact, the sun no longer appears above the mountains, not even in what should be the height of summer even if its light still slightly reaches the land below. In this frozen tundra, darkness and bitter cold reign as King and Queen. Speculation has risen on what is the reason behind such a long winter, from dark and evil wizards using dark magic, to threats from the strange creatures of the underdark, to perhaps divine wrath by Auril the frostmaiden herself. whatever the reason something must be done, lest the entire community of the dale will perish.
No matter what reason you find yourselves in ten towns, whether you are trying to hide from authorities or dark enemies outside the frozen hellscape, or you are a native of icewind dale seeking to make a living and survive as your home is slowly freezing over, maybe you heard that there are many secrets and magical items hidden in the icy depths and you came to claim them, or perhaps you come here to seek glory as many great heroes done so before. you find yourselves coming together, as threads of fate weaves your path as one. for who knows, you might be able to stop the everlasting rime, or die and become another frozen nameless corpse
About The Game
As you might have noticed from the description Rime of the Frostmaiden is all about gritty adventure and survival in a hellish frozen wasteland. You will be threatened not just from monstrous creatures or your fellow man who may want exactly what you have, but also the elements themselves could spell doom and the end of an adventurer's career by freezing to death. It will also be enhanced with plenty of homebrew content that I will use to bolster the module and possibly fixes some of its issues to make the experience better. sessions will take from 3 to 4 hours with them usually ending when there is a good spot to stop once we go beyond the 3 hour mark.
All experience levels are welcomed, if you are new to either D&D 5e, Roll20, or RPG's in general I will do my best to teach you the ropes and you don't have to worry about not knowing things, we all been there, as long as you have the want to learn I am sure we can get you on your feet by session 1.

And finally, this game does have adult themes like Isolation, horror, gore, death by the elements as icewind dale under the everlasting rime has turned into a horrible place to live in the further you get from the meager civilization that is Ten-Towns
Character Creation
Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden is a 1-11 level module so we will be starting at level 1. I allow all official Wizard of the Coasts books to be used when making your character as long as it makes sense within the setting, except for the Tasha ability increases changes those are not allowed, optional features from Tasha and any Unearthed Arcana or homebrew must be approved by me beforehand. We will be using a more buffed standard array for stats generation that goes like this: 16,15,14,12,10,08.
Characters will be made during session 0, I recommend you have a base idea in your head if you want but try and not build too much on it as we will be doing that during session 0 so everyone can get to know each other and make the characters together so you are familiar with each other when the game starts.
