I enjoy running PBP games, but one major flaw to them is that they are so slow, that I once estimated that to run one of the 5e Hardcovers in its entirety, would take TEN YEARS. (I'm three years into Tomb of Annihilation, skipping much grind, and we have not made it to the actual Tomb yet).
So, I've been thinking of running a nice palate-cleansing short adventure. I've been pretty busy, so it can't be anything that takes too much prep work. (Unlike, say, my Revel's End game, where I was writing the adventure myself, which I just couldn't find time to do. For those involved in that game, I promise, I will return to it some day!). I think that the Candlekeep Mysteries are nice and short, and we should be able to finish one without too much trouble.
I'm inclined to run "A Deep and Creeping Darkness" - a mystery of a missing mining town. I'm not married to it, if someone has another suggestion.
Character Gen Rules: Level Four.
I want to keep it simple:
So, anyone want to give it a shot?
EDIT: Looks like we have:
@KahlessNestor playing Ruznami Warmaker, Dwarf Abjurer Wizard
@Leatherhead playing Argenti, Genasi Warlock (tome pact with Aurumamma)
@DEFCON 1 playing Hawthorne Grandview, Inquisitive Rogue and mining consortium agent
@VLAD the Destroyer playing Kaliban, Psi-Warrior Gnome
@Steve Gorak playing Ethian Silvermoon, Elf Cleric

Character Gen Rules: Level Four.
I want to keep it simple:
- No Feats. No multiclassing. No UA.
- PHB, Xanathar's, and Tasha's are allowed, though, including Tasha's "optional features". (I haven't seen much of that stuff in play, so I'll allow it.)
- Standard Array Abilities. (Yes, you can float your racial bonuses, but I want a story reason).
- Take Average HP.
- 400gp starting cash. You can buy common consumables, but no starting magic items.
So, anyone want to give it a shot?
