[5E] Learn to Play DnD -- Dragon of Icespire Peak [$20 USD][FoundryVTT][Friday 4:30pm PDT - Biweekly]

Looking to learn how to play Dungeons and Dragons 5e? This is an introduction to Dungeons and Dragons and will be for new players, or players new to 5th edition.

You find yourselves in the small town of Phandalin, a small town nestled in the foothills of the Sword Mountains. The residents of the town are being terrorized by creatures from the mountain that have been displaced by a new threat. A white dragon. The dragon has forced others off the mountain and into the settled region. They now look to adventurers to help rescue and notify others in the surrounding region and to deal with this new threat.

  • Type: Campaign
  • Length: (roughly 25 - 30 sessions)
  • Duration: 2 to 3 hours
  • Date: Biweekly sessions every other Friday at 4:30pm PDT
  • Cost: $20 / session (Session 0 is free)

A private discord server will be created for this campaign, which will be used for communication and voice, so you will need to have a Discord account.

Campaign is hosted on StartPlaying and a free account is required.

I do have a few house rules, which are detailed on the linked google sheet. This is a living document as situations may arise that a new rule may need to be created.

I also have my GM Manifesto, where I detail my personal rules and what is expected from both GM and Players.

So a little about me. I have been playing TTRPGs since the late 80’s, starting with DnD 2e. Since then, I have played other systems such as Werewolf, 13th Age, Shadowrun, Pathfinder, Star Trek, Star Wars, Fallout and Witcher. I started being a DM around 20 years ago. The campaigns that I run are complete sandbox and are character-centric, where the actions of the characters will have an impact (both positive and negative) on the world around them.

I have been called a ‘high maintenance’ GM because I go above and beyond and ask a lot of questions. I will put as much into the campaign and your character’s story as you do. If you want to acquire an ability, item, etc, I will work with you to craft a story around it and make it happen during the session or a side session.

My table is open to anyone regardless of gender, culture or race and as a LGBTQ+ ally I provide an open and inviting table for all who wish to play. I run all types of games and entertain to my players and what they want, but you will find a very good mix of RP, combat and puzzles. I will always work with the players to find out their needs so that everyone gets the most out of playing.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
