Confrontation at Candlekeep
Candlekeep is under siege, and it needs adventurers to help protect it! Heed the call to defend the legendary monastery and stand against the tide of evil.
This Special pre-dates D&D Adventurers League, and was part of the D&D Next playtest that become fifth edition. This adventure by crafted by the legendary Teos Abadia, Greg Bilsland, and Shawn Merwin, who consulted with Forgotten Realms creator Ed Greenwood, as this adventure acts as prequel to his novel The Herald (2014).

DDEP 05-01 – The Iron Baron
Deep in the Greypeak Mountains the fire giant warlord Baron Ugarak has enslaved hundreds of small folk to toil in his iron mines furiously extracting elementally infused ore for an as yet unknown purpose. Surrounded by a monstrous army and decidedly shady allies, the Baron poses a dire threat to the goodly folk of the north.
Part of Season 5 of D&D Adventurers League, this is often overshadowed by it’s sequel below, but the two form a duology, and we think they’re best played in-order.
A multi-table Epic adventure for level 1-4 and 5-10 Forgotten Realms characters.
DDEP 05-02 – The Ark of the Mountains
The flying galleon Thunderbound descends on Beregost, unleashing the wrath of the cloud giants! To save the town from annihilation, heroes from far and wide must awaken the lost machine entombed under Durlag’s Tower. Dare you board the Ark of the Mountains and do battle in the burning skies?

DDEP 08-01 – Chaos in the City of Splendors
The hunt for the dragon’s cache has attracted ne’er-do-wells and fortune seekers to Waterdeep from far and wide and the gangs of Waterdeep are not about to let such a bounty of talent go to waste. Chaos and shenanigans await the brave and the bold in the City of Splendors!
Part of Season 8 of D&D Adventurers League, this is s fun, low-stakes romp through the city, unconnected to the rest of of the season, and a personal favourite of Spencer’s.
A multi-table Epic adventure for level 1-4 Forgotten Realms characters.
DDEP09-01 – Infernal Pursuits
A horse race in Baldur’s Gate becomes a hellish battle on infernal war machines in Avernus when the characters get caught between two evil merchants… and must hang on for dear life.
Part of Season 9 of D&D Adventurers League, the blerb above wildly undersells this one. This is Mad Max-style chaos, set in literal hell. It’s unconnected to the rest of season 9 in anything other than setting, and is likely as close as you’ll get to the fury road.
A multi-table Epic adventure for level 1-4 and 5-10 Forgotten Realms characters.
