Adventure Overview:
Beginner-friendly adventure! Learn to play Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition!
THE RETURN OF TIAMAT! Defy the Queen of Evil Dragons in this adventure for Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition. Tyranny of Dragons combines and refines two action-packed Dungeons & Dragons adventures—Hoard of the Dragon Queen and The Rise of Tiamat—into a single, sweeping campaign. Corrected from the notoriously lazy, sloppy, and nonsensical printed version.
In an epic campaign set on the west coast of Faerûn – the famed Sword Coast – dive headfirst into a massive struggle between a cult plotting to unleash an ancient evil into the world and the factions that rise up to meet that threat! Infiltrate the cult’s ranks and bases! Battle terrifying dragons that threaten the peace! Coordinate with famous groups to thwart the cult’s plans! Wield legendary weapons that grow with you! What legend will you forge in Tyranny of Dragons?
What If You’re New to RPGs:
Don’t worry! This campaign starts at 3rd level and focuses primarily on following the plot, exploring the world during the story, and roleplaying amongst the Party and with NPCs they interact with. If you are new, you you will learn to create a character on D&D Beyond and how to play Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition, even if you are completely new.
What Players Need:
A working microphone, a free Discord account, a free profile on D&D Beyond, and ~3 hours of time you’re okay with being fun will be needed to participate in the session. A camera or webcam is encouraged for immersion, but not required.
What the GM Provides:
Entry-level to intermediate instruction on how to play the game, additional access to content on D&D Beyond, as well as a stream on Discord of the 3D Virtual Tabletop application, TaleSpire.
Character Creation Guidelines:

Characters will level as normal from 8th-15th level in the second adventure, The Rise of Tiamat. Player character stats will be determined using Standard Array or Point Buy. If you don’t know what these are, don’t worry – it’ll all be explained!

This was my first D&D campaign, and I started as someone who didnt know much about the game or its intricacies. Not only was Keenan extremely accomodating, his world building, and immersive story telling makes coming to session every week a blast. Highly recommend!
I have been playing various TTRPGs for years and Keenan is a great DM. He was a lot of fun and took into consideration the personalities of the players he was running for. He made voices for some of the characters and had nice ambience even for this short one shot.
I cannot recommend him enough to run a one shot and I hope to be a part of a campaign he runs in the future.
I played my first DnD game with Keenan and he was FANTASTIC! He took the time to walk through every single aspect on “How to Play 101” weeks before!
My party and I had a great time with Keenan! He made our game “educational” and engaging and let us get a lil’ goofy!
10/10 would recommend!

I played my first game of D&D with Keenan and it was just so fun while he was patient explaining rules, and it was so easy going. Definitely worth the price of admission, as he's definitely willing to roll with whatever shenanigans the group gets up to. My only complaint is I can't give him 6/5 stars
Now of course, a good DM can make a game and that is still a very true fact for Keenan, however he is more than just a good DM. He is a storyteller and a collaborator, he brings to life any story he tells and does it so with craftsmanship.
Keenan is THE DM who not just creates a campaign but a world you can get lost in with the layers of story building, roleplaying, and combat that he breathes to life. He is very welcoming to new players, working with them in and out of sessions to have the best experience for everyone.
Keenan is an amazing DM who gets very involved in the campaign and puts a lot of heart into the story telling/world building. He is also an exceptional DM for first time players like myself very patient and always ready to help can't recommend enough!
So what to tell you about keen is he is a great and fun dm has alot of patiance makes the game fun makes great use of homebrew would deffo.recommend
Keenan is a phenomenal DM with an incredible knack for world building! Settings feel alive and dynamic, and characters have all felt distinct and memorable! He gives a large degree of freedom to the party to approach situations however they would like, and combat encounters are challenging but exciting! I am a bit of an optimizer myself, and the fights we have encountered have consistently been engaging and allowed each player character to have moments to shine. Keenan is also great about working with players to ensure that everyone is comfortable with the subject matter in the game, and he has been very accommodating with requests for topics to avoid. I would absolutely recommend him as a DM!
Keenan will utilize both audio and visuals to ensure you have a great representation of the ambience and world of whatever campaign you take part in. He helped get me into D&D finally and I’m loving it
