In this on-going journey, adventures find themselves working together to unravel the mysteries of Candlekeep Library that bring fame and fortune to those brave enough to face the unknown. Since gaining entry to this esteemed bastion of scholars, a group of adventurers follow one mystery after another, fighting off a host of fresh new monsters in novel places, all in the classic DnD setting of Faerûn. In this campaign we'll level from 1 to 16 where along the way we uncover secret portals to unexplored planes, charm our way into a secret society, contend with ancient demons and more, offering a healthy balance of encounters from solving puzzles, to roleplay and combat. Anyone is welcome to join this on-going club, but it's best that they have a character already made so they can easily jump in. If you need help making one, I can spend some time doing this with you. The character should also be the appropriate level based on the corresponding date and level (see below) we'll be in the campaign's cycle. It's recommended that you join this club with the intention to stay at least for 5+ sessions so you don't disrupt the flow and bond between group characters, but you are free to drop out or miss sessions if necessary. November-December: levels 1-4 January-February: levels 4-7 March-April: levels 8-11 May-June: levels 12-15

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a teacher who combines my love of video games and fictional stories with subjects like personal development, history, psychology, and anthropology, and writing. I want to stimulate learning within the environments students find themselves most engaged, whether they be in virtual worlds or ones in their imagination!
I have 6 years of teaching experience with 18 year-old English-learners and children ages 7-13. I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Anthropology from Clemson University and use this degree to help students reflect on others' perspectives. My philosophy of teaching ensures students hit every spot in the learning cycle. When my students grapple with new concepts, they will reflect on the connections these concepts have to their personal lives, and actively experiment with these concepts in activities that rely on teamwork, problem solving, and promote creativity. Creativity is my bread and butter. It is my personal wish to have every student ignite their love of learning by creating something they can proudly show off to parents and friends.
Besides being a fan of video games like World of Warcraft and Skyrim, I love movies, reading, hiking and listening to podcasts, practicing self-defense (Krav Maga), and dancing to electronic music. I have lived abroad and travelled to over 10 countries, and enjoy studying other cultures and ways of living.Reviews
