In Icewind Dale, adventure is a dish best served cold.

Beneath the unyielding night sky, you stand before a towering glacier and recite an ancient rhyme, causing a crack to form in the great wall of ice. Beyond this yawning fissure, the Caves of Hunger await. And past this icy dungeon is a secret so old and terrifying that few dare speak of it. The mad wizards of the Arcane Brotherhood long to possess that which the god of winter’s wrath has so coldly preserved—as do you!*

What fantastic secrets and treasures are entombed in the sunless heart of the glacier, and what will their discovery mean for the denizens of Icewind Dale?

Can you save Ten-Towns from the Frostmaiden’s everlasting night?

Are you prepared to journey to Icewind Dale, the frozen north of Faerûn?

Times are strange, and countless rumors swirl around this cold and isolated land, like so many snowflakes in an endless blizzard. This adventure will take us into the frozen wastes of Icewind Dale, based on the Rime of the Frostmaiden official module for Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition. Weekly sessions will run 4 hours each, beginning at 8:00PM GMT+2, each Thursday of the week. The adventure is meant to take players from level 1 to level 12, but with added homebrew content I expect the players to reach level 13-14 at least before the end of the campaign.

The set date for the launch of the module is September 15th, 2020. As soon as the module launches, we're hitting it hard!

Before that, though, we will play an introductory adventure to the module, a series called “Icewind Dale: Fate of the Icebreaker“, a dark, grim and funny adventure that leads into the official story!
Well, sort of. It’s more like it tosses players in the general direction of the official adventure with some silly props and says to go have fun!

Players will begin their adventures as members of a mercenary company that specializes in dangerous courier work. The company is mildly famous in the port city-state of Luskan, particularly for their deliveries by sea to the north to Ten-Towns in Icewind Dale, and occasionally towards the dwarven hold of Mithral Hall.

Your characters, as new members of the Luskar Deliverers, have been given orders to deliver a number of parcels from Luskan to a number of coastal towns along the Sword Coast North, and finally to Ten-Towns!

After finishing this mini-series, we will just cruise into the Rime of the Frostmaiden!

About Me:

Howdy! My name is Zlatan, and I have been playing D&D for more than 25 years on and off, and DMing took a big chunk of that time. Roll20 was a new concept for me, having been raised playing old school eye-to-eye D&D, but I've learned to like all the advantages online play provides. In this game, as in any other I am running, my main and primary goal will be to use my experience and storytelling to create a compelling, engaging, and fun experience for my players. D&D has been my passion for all these years, and I will always give my absolute maximum to work with you in order for us all to create an experience we will be excited to share each week!

What to Expect From the Campaign:

• Characters beginning at level 1 and ending at around level 14;
• Great storytelling and carefully detailed atmosphere, to help immerse the players completely into the ambience of Icewind Dale;
• Weekly sessions that will run for about 4 hours;
• Fully detailed, high quality maps and custom tokens for your characters;
• Premium account on Roll20, with Advanced Fog of War and Dynamic Lighting, all for your enjoyment!
• Carefully selected soundtracks to bring the immersion home;
• Access to my own Discord server (boosted server with premium sound quality) and our own campaign channel within it.

What to Expect From your DM:

• You can expect a fully invested and experienced DM, with years of creating worlds, dungeons and monsters under my belt;
• Special attention to characters: I want to know everything about your characters, so I will be keeping track of your backstories, and all the little changes your characters go through as the campaign progresses. I will then create homebrew content that will be especially focused on player characters and incorporate that into the game, in order to make this a story about your characters too!
• 24/7 assistance: I will be open to your suggestions, critiques, praises and questions at all times! You can express all your ideas via PM at any time, and I will respond at my earliest convenience.
• Teamwork! I am not the tyrant type of DM with the credo „My table, my rules, my way or the highway!“. I believe we can all work together to make this a hell of a fun ride for all of us, and I will sometimes bend the rules, if needed to make our gaming experience better.
• I will constantly invest in Roll20 and Discord additional content, to make and keep this a premium experience for my players.

Character Building Information

• Characters start at level 1.
• Ability scores are selected using 27 Point Buy or Standard Array of 15,14,13,12,10,8 (for details on these methods, refer to your Player's Handbook), or Stat Roll (4d6, drop lowest).
• Standard starting equipment that comes with your class and background.
• Any WoTC released material is acceptable, including Unearthed Arcana that is not superseded by official release. Use of homebrew races/class/subclass will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
