A once proud fortress swallowed by the earth ages ago lies eerily intact. Its broken halls echo with the sounds of battle. An oddity lingers below. Rumors of vigor and malice both emerging from the Sunless Citadel reach adventurers across the land. Welcome! This is a call to adventure for you, a novice to D&D 5th Edition! The Sunless Citadel was the first official adventure for the 3rd edition of D&D. It's been updated to 5E (2014 version). It combines combat, exploration, and roleplaying as the party unravels the mysteries of a fortress built by dragon worshippers long ago. This adventured will be tailored for people brand new to 5E. More on this below. ABOUT ME: My first delve into D&D was 1976, the White Box. We didn’t have a clue. Names were our names backwards, so I was Divad. The way they described hit dice was "1st level 1DieX, 2nd level 2DieX, etc. " So we thought that when you leveled up you rolled that level number of hit dice. So 1 HD at 1st, 2 HD at second, 10 HD at 10th. We had characters with 500 HP! We went through the 1st Deities and Demigods supplement page by page, killing each god and taking their stuff…. Fast forward to now. I'm getting back onto the saddle after a lengthy illness (That's my jaw in the profile). Figuring the best way for me to remember is to teach, so here we are! As a teaching game I will pause at times to explain some of the mechanics the scenes, and role playing in general as needed. I will run "RAW" (Rules As Written) entirely (almost) so you can focus on the core rules and their character. This as a one shot adventure, but at the end of the story (6-8 sessions) we can discuss venturing into the wider world. So tuck your thinking cap under your helm and journey to the village of Oakhurst!
