The Online Resources – I’ve included links to some excellent websites that can help you run your game, along with some awesome YouTube channels that will improve your skills as a DM. The Handouts can be printed as is or used as a starting point for your own creative spin.

I usually print them using a variety of construction and specialty papers cut to fit my printer. Most handouts provided further motivation for the players to want to hunt down the main villain, Nezzar, since he has no contact with the players until the last chapter. The Handouts – The module came with one handout to give to the players. They are great for handing out to players (as they explore each section) so that they can better visualize the encounter. The Player Maps have all hidden locations, traps, and secret areas removed.

The Maps – All the maps that I used to run The Lost Mine of Phandelver, including some custom maps. If you want a more in-depth analysis of the charts, check out my Dungeon Master Resource Page. I’ve included the adventure-specific charts and a blank copy if you prefer to make your own. They include Monster Stat sheets, Encounter Lists, Village Rosters, Rules Synopses, Campaign Setting Overviews and more. The Charts – All of the charts and tables that I use to run the campaign. The Campaign Diary – The full Tale of the Saviors of Phandalin as they attempt to collect on a $50 debt. This is a complete overview of our experience playing this adventure. One of the best sandbox adventures, and it takes place in the same town? How convenient. In the maps section, I include a merged map that depicts all the locations of both adventures. By adding the sandbox-style message board and the rampaging white dragon to the Lost Mine storyline, you can create an absolutely epic campaign that should take players up to 8th level and beyond. Plus, with the publication of The Dragon of Icespire Peak from the D&D Essentials Kit, the two are perfect adventure companions. Your players will become heroes as they save the village of Phandalin from hordes of goblins, doppelgangers and worse all led by a sinister and maniacal Drow mage. It is designed for PC levels 1 – 5 and has a good mix of wilderness, dungeon, and village encounters with a decent story.

The Lost Mine of Phandelver is the introductory adventure for the 5th Edition Starter Set.
