ABOUT THE ADVENTURE
A town sends help after a broken dam upstream routed a fork of the river through a long dried-up bed. Now, a pair of children who were playing by the riverbed have gone missing, but no one in the town has ventured into the woods across the old riverbed, stating that an old curse has returned with the water.
ABOUT THE SYSTEM
Dungeons & Dragons is the world’s most popular tabletop roleplaying game (TTRPG). It is a cooperative, storytelling game where you and other players take on the roles of different characters within a story. As you play, your character will make friends and enemies, fight monsters, discover loot, and complete quests.
But while the goal of many games is to score the most points or win, the ultimate goal of D&D is to tell a story. There are dice and Basic Rules involved, and often maps and miniatures or tokens, but the tools that come into play most often are the imaginations of the players.
