So your Adventurers are a bit shaken up after encountering a Manticore? Why not keep things simple and get a bit of gold for warning some miners about the Dragon? Alas, things never go as planned, because once your players arrive at the excavation site, they'll be enticed with magic items to expl...

Congratulations on making it to the Finale of Act 1 for Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk!

Welcome back once again! This is the twist we've all been waiting for. The base version of Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk is fun, but it lacks in a few departments. One of which is The Big Bads; both Venomfang and The Spider.

Your players will have the option to enter from a few different locations, but overall things are relatively simple. Towards the end there's a chance for Glasstaff...
