Candlekeep Mysteries: Forbidden Books, Dark Secret

Campfire embers are the last thing you remember. Whether you were traveling alone or guarding a merchant caravan, the wilderness suddenly went dead silent. Then came the masked attackers—too many, too coordinated, and overwhelmingly lethal. Your camp was slaughtered. But you? You were taken. You awaken in darkness, bound in heavy chains deep underground. If you ever want to feel the sun on your face again, you and your fellow captives must forge a desperate alliance, break free, and survive an escape that will spiral into a world-spanning epic.

A BIT ABOUT ME: Hello, my name is Aron, I’m 34 and I started playing this game as the forever DM just before COVID hit and have been DMing multiple weekly games since. I am for the most part fairly introverted which this hobby has helped deal with, and while I may not do all the little funny voices (it’s a thing I’m working on) I’m a sucker for the Rule of Cool and a good story! And what better story then one you build together as a collaboration with other like minded individuals?! Outside of D&D my interests revolve heavily around music, movies, and other general nerd things

$15/ session: Click here to sign up or learn more Bi-weekly / Thursday - 6:30 PM CDT This is a beginner-friendly Dungeons & Dragons campaign set in the frontier town of Phandalin. You’ll start at level 1, take on local quests, explore ruins, deal with monsters, and gradually uncover a larger threat tied to the region. The campaign blends open-ended adventures with a growing story, so you’ll always have direction—but your choices matter. Built for New Players No experience needed. This game is designed to teach you as you play: Step-by-step guidance during sessions Help with character creation Rules explained in plain language A supportive, low-pressure table Worried About Starting? I’ve Been There. “I’m not creative enough” You don’t need to be. Just decide what your character does. “I attack.” “I search the room.” That’s enough. The flavor comes naturally over time. “I don’t know the rules” You’re not expected to. We’ll handle that together. The only rule that matters at the table: keep the game moving and have fun. “I’ll feel awkward roleplaying” No voices required. You can simply describe what your character says or does. Roleplay is about decisions, not acting. “I don’t know how to build a good character” You don’t need an optimized build. Fun, interesting characters matter more than perfect ones—and I’ll help you every step of the way. What to Expect A mix of combat, exploration, and roleplay Clear guidance without slowing the game down A campaign that starts simple and grows in depth A story shaped by your decisions The Only Thing You Need to Bring: A willingness to try. This isn’t about winning—it’s about building a story together.

THE MISTS ARE CALLING. You don't remember entering Ravenloft. You remember the road. The fog. And then... nothing. Now you stand in a land where ancient evils walk freely, where Darklords rule through fear, and where the Mists don't seem interested in letting you leave. But you weren't brought here by accident. Ravenloft: Beyond the Mists — No Road Leads Home is a dark, story-driven D&D 5e campaign built for players who want more than a dungeon crawl. Expect: • Gothic horror, mystery & suspense • A deeply character-driven story • Meaningful choices with lasting consequences • Exploration and challenging tactical combat • Custom maps and an immersive Foundry VTT experience • Atmospheric music, weather, lighting & visual effects • Secrets, twists and discoveries • Opportunities for your character to become part of the larger story • A respectful table where everyone gets a chance to shine GAME DETAILS 🎲 System: D&D 5e 🖥️ Platform: Foundry VTT 📅 Day: Sundays ⏰ Time: 3:00–7:00 PM EST 💰 Cost: $10 per player/session 🎁 Session 0: FREE You don't need to be an experienced roleplayer. You don't need to know Ravenloft lore. You just need to be willing to step into the Mists. Because once you do... No Road Leads Home. If you're looking for a campaign where your character isn't just another adventurer passing through the story—but part of the story itself—I'd love to have you join us. Dare to enter?
