The Nexus Laboratory sits in a remote part of the frozen tundra, far from prying eyes who would tamper with the innovative projects that take place here. However, when a test subject gets loose, your players may be the only ones who can help the scientists find a solution.

Your players must journey to Dragon Barrow in order to prevent the invading orcs from claiming the Dragon Slaying Sword within! They will have to avoid traps, destroy vengeful wisps, and, if they hope to claim the sword, go toe to toe with a massive skeletal dragon! Should your players search thoroughly, they may even leave with more than they expect!

Axeholm is a dwarven fortress carved into the base of a mountain. It was abandoned and sealed up long ago after being haunted by a banshee. Ghouls and other creatures now prowl Axeholm, while the banshee continues to haunt the fortress's upper halls. It'll be up to your players to clear this fortress and make it a safe haven for the town of Phandalin; should the dragon threat become too hard to...

We've just finished up one of my favorite months of the year! I absolutely love Halloween and just had to prep something on theme: The Liching Hour by B.J. Keeton! For those of you who have already run it, I'd love to hear how it went!
There are quite a few important updates in this Monthly Wrap-Up, so let's get into it!

Hello all! I have an important question that I'm hoping you can help me with. I've been considering updating my notes to help the Visually Impaired for quite some time, and while showing the notes to some of my Discord members, they brought up how they liked that version even more than my original.
I thought I would reach out to everyone to gather your opinions! Here are my DM Notes for A...

Fizzbang Frazzlepop, an eccentric goblin wizard, has dedicated his life to achieving the ultimate form of undeath: becoming a lich. However, his numerous "Get Lich Quick" schemes have all ended in spectacular failure—until now.

So your players chose to negotiate with the Wererats; what could go wrong? Well besides needing to clear out an entire area of Orcs and one angry Ogre! If they manage this and decide to search a bit, they may just find riches beyond their dreams and even a clue on where to find the White Dragon that's been ravaging these lands!

White Plume Mountain is an absolute classic Adventure for level 8 players; one that has been talked about for years and has been redone time and again. Heck, It was even ranked the 9th greatest Dungeons & Dragons adventure of all time by Dungeon magazine in 2004.

Have your players already defeated the Vampire guarding Whelm or have they chosen to go down one of these paths instead, one that leads to the Legendary Trident Wave and one that leads to the Soul-Eating Sword Blackrazor. Your players will have to face a slew of sea creatures, avoid being boiled alive, use their wits to survive dastardly traps, and defeat a powerful Oni if they ever hope to cla...

An escort mission, simple right, perhaps for the non-adventurous type, but for your players, it'll be a fight to survive against Wererats!!!
The Mountain's Toe Gold Mine has been suffering productivity problems as of late. You've been tasked with escorting a new overseer there. It's a rather simple job that pays well and could certainly be left at that...if your players are none too heroi...

Your players have been tasked with delivering supplies to a logging camp run by Tibor, Harbin Westers' half-brother. An easy enough job with surprisingly good pay, but as your players have surely learned, nothing is easy around here. They'll discover an abandoned campsite and need to uncover what happened. If they're too clever, they may just come face to face with a lightning bolt!
It feels like every month goes by faster than the last! I've been hard at work prepping the rest of Dragon of Icespire Peak along with a fun Adventure that you can all look forward to in the coming months! In the meantime, let's check in on what's new with Advent's Amazing Advice!

Harbin Wester is hopeful that a magic item from Gnomengarde can help against the dreaded dragon! It'll be up to your players to venture forth and request aid from the reclusive and secretive gnomes; however, far more threats await when they arrive. The Kings' have gone mad, and a gnome-eating mimic is on the loose! Will your player be able to bring peace to Gnomengarde once more?
As poachers close in on an expectant Sabre-Toothed Tiger mother, a passionate conservationist will do everything in his power to protect the animal and her unborn cubs. That includes hiring your players to travel with him to the frozen tundra and keep watch during the birth.
