About the adventure

Embark on an Epic Adventure: Tyranny of Dragons Step into the legendary saga that unites two of D&D 5e’s most iconic adventure modules: Hoard of the Dragon Queen and The Rise of Tiamat. In this grand quest, the Cult of the Dragon, under new and sinister leadership, seeks to amass ancient relics to bring the fearsome dragon goddess Tiamat back to the Material Plane. They have formed a dark alliance with the Five Chromatic Dragon flights and the malevolent Red Wizards of Thay, plotting to unleash a draconic apocalypse upon the Forgotten Realms in the name of their Queen Mother. Adventurers, gather your gear and steel your resolve! The fate of the world rests in your hands.

Game style

Roleplay Heavy

“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.

Theater of the Mind

“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.

Rule of Cool (RoC)

“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.

How will character creation work

It is expected that the party aligns with a good moral outlook. You will all begin at level 1 and level up at specific game milestones throughout play. Races & Classes All official 5e races and species are permitted (PHB, XGE, TCE, etc.). All official 5e classes and subclasses are permitted (PHB, XGE, TCE, etc.). No homebrew races or classes for this play through We’ll aim for a diverse party of classes; no duplicates, please. Characters can multiclass starting at level 2. Stat Rolls We will do all rolling in person session 0. Options for rolling stats: Individually roll 4d6kh3 twice, reroll all 1s, and take the better result. Collectively roll 4d6kh3, reroll all 1s, and use the resulting array for everyone. Starting Feat As heroes, you may choose one feat to start with. Starting with a feat can significantly enhance your character’s abilities. Choose one that complements your class and play style. To Consider Assigning Stats Each player may choose where to apply their scores. Dexterity is the most valuable ability score in the game for melee types (Fighter, Rogue, etc.). To balance this, caster types (Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard, Druid, etc.) may choose to base their spellcasting on INT, WIS, or CHA. The highest among your DEX, INT, WIS, or CHA can be applied to your initiative. Alignment Alignments are mainly reserved for creatures from the outer planes and those closely connected to them (e.g., paladins and clerics). Otherwise, alignment reflects where characters stand in the major struggle of the setting: good vs. evil is the primary axis, and lawful vs. chaotic is the secondary axis. This can suggest behavior, but isn't strictly prescriptive. For this campaign, characters are expected to be on the side of good, but are free to range the secondary axis. Wealth & Items Equip your character with all the items needed for an adventuring job, including the material components for your prepared spells. Roll 4d20 + 20 for starting gold. Start with three consumable special items (each under 199g in value): Health Potions Magic Potions Spell Scrolls of Level 0/1/2
