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.

About The Game
--

The game has started and we are in the second half of the campaign, the party are level 13 and have entered the 13th level of undermountain, an Arid Wasteland molded to existence by the supreme will of the Mad Mage himself. Here water is scarce and the artificial sun does not relent, Insane Hobgoblins ride of machines they don't understand, and a massive Worm made of Adamantine burrows making pathways and destroying others. Just another Tuesday in Undermountain.

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, We will only be using the 2014 rules as that is how the campaign has been going so far. 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.

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, but you will be starting at level 13 with a quite a bit of gold and items 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 and as thus certain races might be disallowed if i think they would not fit the dungeon, in addition to that the only subclass that is banned is Gloomstalker Ranger for balance reasons, 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 until we talk about the campaign, the party currently has a Firbolg wildfire druid, Human fighter/warlock and an elven Ranger/Rogue/cleric. 

About me
--
Hello, my name is Zakaria, but you will probably call me Zak like the rest of my friends. I'm he/him, 24 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 6 years and I enjoy it very much. I enjoy meeting folk as part of my work and fostering a friendly environment alongside the table and outside of it, I believe that in order to have fun on the table everyone has to be in a good mindset and I strive to get there. I love engaging with my players and immerse them into the story and the world, and love to see their reactions, for example It always makes me happy to hear my players excitement 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. I enjoy setting events up and I'm always proud when the group picks up on it and starts to connect the dots (even if that rarely happens) However, what makes me most happy is when a player says that they really enjoyed the session.

Concerning Payment
--
