"Lost Mines of Phandelver" Finish - 2023 D&D Reboot - New Adventure "Dungeon of the Mad Mage" Awaits

And so .. surrounded by the "boss" monster of Phandelver (The Spider) the adventurers "rocked it" courtesy of the Party Leader Magic-User making his experience points up to 5th Level [big time adventures await] - and this figuring out how to use the dreaded Fireball Spell. Kaboom! The room of baddies (giant spiders, bugbears and The Spider himself) was consumed in magical fire [but the party leader was careful to protect his fellow PCs]. This also weakened the stability of dungeon foundations by destroying the dungeon protector - the magical Dwarf God idol [crumble, crumble .. RPG PC vandalism .. so magic is no longer holding the structure together]. With the dungeon collapsing around them in Indiana Jones fashion the party race to a new opening which seems to be "stable" (see below, the ending of The Spider NPC and his dreams of utilising "Fell Magic"):      

A bizarre sight awaits them, a chair on a chain harness, a bucket with a sign, "One at a time. A gold coin for the bucket man" and a long dark vertical chimney with a distance white pinprick of a light, with faint sounds of raucous revelry carrying down the chimney. One by one the adventurers ascend and teh party find themselves in the surreal surrounding of the Tavern of the Yawning Portal, an entrance point to the "Dungeon of the Mad Mage" and "Waterdeep"!

In 2023 the dungeon and dragons adventures restarts with a reboot from The Lost Mines of Phandelver. The PCs also carry the secret of the demonic presence they have released onto the unsuspecting denizens - who (thought they) have troubles enough of their own.

Dungeons and Dragons .. Spoiler alerts:

Although in typical Dungeon Master fashion I reserve the right to add bespoke elements and levels in to suit my whim and figure collection (present and future)! In typical strange fashion I have also gone and ordered the prequel! Dragon Heist, describing the setting of the town of Waterdeep!
