...and not so new members.
Candlekeep Mysteries is the latest WotC adventure book. Here's the marketing blurb.
An anthology of seventeen mystery-themed adventures for the world's greatest roleplaying game*.
Candlekeep attracts scholars like a flame attracts moths. Historians, sages, and others who crave knowledge flock to this library fortress to peruse its vast collection of books, scribbled into which are the answers to the mysteries that bedevil them. Many of these books contain their own mysteries—each one a doorway to adventure. Dare you cross that threshold?
Candlekeep Mysteries is a collection of seventeen short, stand-alone D&D adventures designed for characters of levels 1-16. Each adventure begins with the discovery of a book, and each book is the key to a door behind which danger and glory await.
* Jeez! I'm not going there.
I'm going to run it as a set of one shots, but if you want to use your character in more than one chapter, then that's fine too.
I'll open it up for lots of players, but only six will go on an adventure at a time. I suppose it'll be something between public and private - if someone joins the game but doesn't go on an adventure, they can still read what everybody else is doing.
These are supposed to be mysteries, not hack'n'slashes. If mysteries aren't your thing, then it's probably best not to join.
* PM me or post here if you want an invite.
* I'll prioritize new players.
* Posting once per day.
* No experience with D&D 5e is needed, and help will be given to new players.
* The free basic rules are fine (PHB, XgtE, SCAG, TCoE are allowed too if you have them).
The first adventure is:
Chapter 1: The Joy of Extradimensional Spaces
An Adventure for 1st-level characters
