Plot Summary: This year’s Midwinter Carnival is held in Highport’s glamorous Sunset Fell district. The festivities include a bustling outdoor holiday market and special performances at the Cassantler Villa, which the Cassalanter family have graciously opened to the public for the duration of the holiday. The pleasant atmosphere is tainted when the famed opera singer, Aria Cavatina is attacked by a tiny fiend that seemingly appears out of nowhere. The City Watch shuts down the event, holding guests in the villa for questioning until the culprit can be identified. With an estate full of the city’s most prominent citizens and a family with a secret so dark they'll do anything to protect it, mayhem and mystery await this Midwinter!
About the Dungeon Master: Your DM is Andrew Smith. Not only is he a skilled game master, he’s a former educator, a computer programmer, and a father. He’s a friend of the Academy and we know he will be your friend as well.
What to Bring: Players will portray well-to-do guests at the celebration. Please create your own third level character, or arrive ten minutes early to choose a pregenerated character for this one-shot. Dice and a miniature to represent your character would be welcome but are not required.
Create your character using a combination of the Player's Handbook, Xanathar’s Guide to Everything, and Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything. Stats should use the point-buy system or the standard array. Characters may start with any non-magical equipment from the Player’s Handbook that makes sense for the holiday occasion.
Players who share some character details with the DM in time for the game may choose from a list of magic items to start with. Please find your GM on the Adventurers' Academy Discord as rew #4943 or e-mail him and he'll be in touch.
