The Netherese, Thayans, and Ashmadai all seem as though they're no longer a threat, and the Lord's Alliance is forging ahead like a well-oiled machine. I kind of want things to start off all hope and sunshine. I've got the Abolethic Sovereignty having been licking their wounds in the shadows while Neverwinter went about rebuilding. The purpose is to thwart the Lovecraftian-like abominations from the Far Realm from their machinations of controlling Faerun.

I'm using a lot of Aberrations/Monstrosites for my game.

I'll keep a look out for that post and probably use a lot of the info for history, but I definitely want to set my game after 1491 DR. I liked it, and it had quite a few tidbits in there that I added to my notes. So for advice, see if you can't hunt down those adventures (last two are on DM's Guild I believe) and if you really want to get detailed seek out the Neverwinter Vinyl Campaign Map by Gale Force Nine at a whopping 30' x 42'. That too went very well.Īs far as continuity went, as we were playing we got the Lord Neverember changes from Rise of Tiamat and just went with it - having the PC's see him suffer the changes and return to Neverwinter. Once the first season of Adventurer's League came out, the players were really all invested in the setting, so we played out the season's 'Tyranny of Dragons' adventures and set them in Neverwinter instead of the suggested Phlan. The second two adventures are also chock full of additional lore, NPCs and story hooks. I converted them to the 5e playtest and we had a blast. At the same time Wizards started their 5E playtesting so I set my campaign there, using the Campaign book as the guide.Īs part of playtesting, I managed to nab the D&D Encounters adventures set there: I nabbed the Neverwinter Campaign Setting on advice that it contained little real rules and was 75% descriptive fluff.
