In this session, the call of the Lamplighter’s Guild echoes through Sharn's shadowed streets. But the true challenge awaits beneath the cobblestones—a daring heist at Sharn’s most infamous casino, a den of vice and fortune that plunges deep into the earth. Modeled after the very layers of the supposed Nine Hells, this labyrinthine establishment—aptly named the Afterlife—is where luck meets legend. 🎲 
Step into a realm where each roll of the dice could alter destiny. Navigate decadent halls and perilous passageways that mimic the fiery depths of Baator, as you and your fellow adventurers bluff, scheme, and risk it all against fiendish guardians of fortune. 🔥 
You and your fellow Lamplighters will work as a cohesive unit on this mission. Every table, every roll of the dice, is essential to breaking through the defenses and reaching the Vault of Nessus. Success depends on coordinated strategy, clear communication, and each table playing its part. Are you up for the challenge?

• Premade Characters are available or feel free to bring your own level 4 PC.

• Dice and other Game Aids provided.

• D&D Beyond is accepted and encouraged.
