D&D: Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk, Available Today!
D&D fans can now discover a horrifying plot that is threatening the existence of Phandalin in Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk – available for purchase everywhere starting today!
Phandelver and Below: The Shattered Obelisk returns players to a familiar location that was first seen in Lost Mine of Phandelver, but the stakes now are much higher and more challenging. This new adventure takes parties from level 1 to 12. It includes a fresh take on the town of Phandalin, new secrets for players to discover, and unexpected story twists that lead the characters deep into the Underdark and beyond.
Similar to the hit video game Baldur’s Gate 3 now available on PS5 and PC, the major threat in the campaign is led by those tentacle-faced abominations, the mind flayers. As the masterminds behind the goblins’ mischief in Phandalin, these illithids are different than any others that fans have encountered in D&D. They are involved with a godlet who’s been previously unknown to fans lurking in the Far Realm.
