D&D Lvl 5 One Shot Adventure: Some Caustic Hospitality

Time: 5:30 - 9:30pm 

Cost: $15

Location: Bard & Baker Troy, 501 Broadway, Troy, NY

Join DM Alex and the rest of the crew for a Dungeons and Dragons one-shot adventure for Level 5 characters. Create your character, grab some dice, and see if you can survive your stop in the little town of Orlane.

The heist didn’t go off exactly as planned, but it’s not all bad news. You got away with it and the city watch are chasing bad leads for now. While they’re distracted, the boss has sent you out of the city on an old smuggler’s route. A modest fort town and a few nosy farmers are all that stand between you and a posh safe-house. Odd glances and rude words have made the journey a tense one. Are these locals onto who you are? Or has something else got them asking questions? 

This horror-themed one-shot adventure is inspired by Douglas Niles’ Dungeon Module N1 for Advanced D&D. 

This one-shot will combine a small dose of social deduction with a harried escape from a collapsing dungeon and will take about 3 to 4 hours to complete depending on player choices. Some previous play experience is encouraged but all are invited to join the table! 

Come prepared with a character of your own imagination equipped with an uncommon magical item using any currently published 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons materials or use one of the pre-generated characters and items provided. You are encouraged to bring along writing supplies. 

Seats are limited so RSVP here to save your spot! Seating begins at 5:30pm to grab food, drink and settle in before the game begins around 6:00pm. Please arrive early if you are planning to choose a pre-generated character.

DM Alex Timmis (he/him) loves telling stories around the table with friends. He has been playing Dungeons and Dragons for eight years and rolling dice behind the DM screen for four of them. While an improv performer and instructor, Alex fell in love with role playing games and helped bring FIASCO! to life onstage at the Mopco Improv Theater in Schenectady. He is currently the Artistic Director of the Electric City Puppets. Role playing games, like improv, give us space to play and explore roles we don’t typically get to play in our day-to-day lives. Alex encourages a playful and respectful table where all players get a chance to add to the narrative and share the spotlight with one another.
