Icewind Dale has become trapped in a perpetual winter. 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 over two years. In fact, the sun no longer appears above the mountains, not even in what should be the height of summer. In this frozen tundra, darkness and bitter cold reign as king and queen. Most dale residents blame Auril the Frostmaiden, the god of winter’s wrath. The shimmering aurora that weaves across the sky each night is said to be her doing—a potent spell that keeps the sun at bay.
Dalefolk live in a scattering of settlements known as Ten-Towns. The drop-off in caravans coming from the south and travel between settlements in this never-ending winter has left everyone feeling isolated. Although each town has resolved to appease the Frostmaiden with sacrifices of one kind or another, no respite from winter’s fury seems forthcoming. For adventurers such as yourselves, Ten-Towns is a place to test one’s mettle and, in the spirit of heroes who have come before, leave one’s mark on this frigid, blighted land.
I am looking to start a Rime of the Frostmaiden campaigns that will be played on weekends (whatever works best for everybody. I have been playing and DMing since 3.5, but I have not had as much time to play this past year. Now that I have more free time I am looking to get back into it all and start a new long-term campaign.
This is a more difficult campaign, a long one too; if you are a newer player just trying out D&D this might not be the best for you
Since this is a difficult campaign I do not mind min-maxing
I want to make sure everybody has fun and lets everybody else have fun, no Debbie downers!
I prefer that people have not read or played the adventure, it makes it more fun for everybody.
Characters will be made in dndbeyond then imported to FoundryVTT (50x better than roll20).
If you are interested respond to this post telling me a little about yourself and your discord. Hope to play with some of you all soon!
This sounds interesting. My grown up daughter and I are looking for a weekend evening game. We live far away and decided this is a good way to enjoy time together. We both have played most of our lives. I started in the 80's and played a lot of 3.5. I took most of the last 5 years off but recently we started playing 2 two player campaign with our old friend, a DM. I would be super interested in a Goliath Ranger/hunter or Gloom
I love DND a lot, extremely passionate and I love RP. I do have school but I am graduating in 20 or so days, so time will not be too much of an issue for me. Please hit me up if you want to know more, but fair warning, I am 17 so if that is a problem I completely understand. Have a good day!
Hi I'm Quinn, I'm twenty two, and I'm definitely interested in joining your Icewind Dale game. From what I've heard of the module I think I'd enjoy the desolate frozen wasteland that it seems like it is. I've played Curse of Strand quite a few times so I know I actually really enjoy a difficult game. I'd love to hear back from you about the time you plan on running the game, and about creating a sick character to fit into the story. My discord is Roarkt#1018. Thanks!
Hi, I am a new player but am a quick learner. I am 20 years old, I am in university, but I will have time on weekends to play. Haven't read anything about the campaign. My discord is aBombinaBowl#6858.
I am available Saturday days, but I have other commitments on Saturday evening starting at 8:30 EST. (I do not know what time zone you are in.) Sadly my Sundays are largely booked.
I am an older gamer who first played AD&D in 1979. I've been playing 5th edition for over four years. I have a lot of experience with other game systems too. You can find out plenty more about me in my LFG post.
I am fairly flexible as to what to play, preferring to defer such decisions till I know what the party composition will be so I can any plug holes.

I'm looking for a new group to play with on the weekends if that is what you're looking for! I can usually play 3 out of every 4 weekends, my work has a rotating weekend schedule.
27 year old female, have been playing DND on and off for the past few years but never played a full campaign due to previous groups falling apart. The only module I've played or read any of is Curse of Strahd, things were really just going to shit in the most interesting and exciting ways when that group had life intervene.

Greetings! I am looking for a campaing for me and a friend of mine, we both are over 30 and we played a long term game for over 3 years.
I really love the sound of the campaign! I heard that it is really fun, but other then that i avoided any information in case i'd ever get the chance to play in it.
As for me (us) as players; we are really enjoing a mixture of RP and Combat and be part of an immersive world, created by the DM and forged by us a group.
Also i have an extended Post if you want to know a little more about us as potential players!
I am an older gamer. I played 1st edition when I was a young kid and then moved on to 2nd edition, which I still love.
I missed all of the 4th edition, and came back to the scene when 5th edition came out. I got a lot of books, but have nobody to group with as my old ones have all moved to other countries.
I'm new to the internet gaming but I think it could be even better, and I am an avid role-player. You can count on me. I just opened a discord about two minutes ago.

Been real interested in the campaign for a long while and I'm excited you're planning to run it!
I've been playing for about 7 or 8 years now, and have more experience DM'ing than playing, would like to be a player for a change... my schedule is mostly free, although I might be joining up a couple campaigns on fridays and sundays after New Year. Still willing to hear other people's scheduling beforehand and be flexible about it.
