The Adventure
"The fire crackles low in the Dusty Flagon. A hooded merchant named Aldric Voss slides into the booth across from you, his eyes darting to the door. He places a sketch on the table — a golden amulet shaped like an eye with a cracked gemstone at its center."
"This was stolen from my family three weeks ago. The thief fled into the Tomb of Echoing Shadows — the sealed crypt beneath the old ruins north of town. No one who enters returns. But the seals are cracking, and I hear the whispers now even in town. I'll pay each of you 50 gold to bring back the amulet. And whatever else you find down there... keep it."
A local merchant in the village of Ashenmoor hires your party to retrieve a stolen amulet — the Amulet of Whispered Light — from an ancient tomb beneath the ruins north of town. The tomb was sealed decades ago after adventurers entered and never returned. Recently, the seals have weakened, and strange whispers bleed through the stone at night.
Expect riddles, traps, skeleton combat, and a boss fight against a Shadow Wraith. This is a classic dungeon crawl designed to teach new players the basics of D&D while giving experienced players a satisfying evening of adventure.

Common Questions
Do I need to know the rules?▼
Absolutely not. DM Ash guides you through every action step by step — what to roll, what it means, how combat works. You just describe what your character wants to do, and the DM handles the rest.
What do I need to bring / install?▼
Just Discord with a working microphone. Camera is optional. No dice, no books, no character sheet prep. Everything is handled for you.
How do I join the session?▼
After you sign up, join our Discord server and head to the 🎲 Game Table voice channel at 7 PM EST on Saturday. Show up 5–10 minutes early to test your audio.
What if I've never played D&D before?▼
This session is specifically designed for first-timers. Every mechanic gets explained in the moment. Most players feel completely comfortable within the first 15 minutes. Just pick Theron (Fighter) if you're nervous — he's the most intuitive.
Can I bring a friend?▼
Yes! Just have them sign up separately. We have 5 seats per session, and characters are designed to complement each other.
What happens after the one-shot?▼
You'll get an email after the session with options to join a longer campaign. No pressure — but most players want to keep going after their first session.
