Please mind our rules on Advertising I think there is no thread that collects large amount of free campaigns in one list yet. I am willing to create and update that kind of list. I will start the list by my own content. I will search free campaigns from internet and add links when I find more content. Post to this thread if you want something to be added. Requirements for listed projects: - Direct link to content that does not require log in / account creation. In most cases direct link to PDF-file. - No piracy.

I won't add the PWYW link until it's confirmed that it's allowed.

I will add this to the list. About Dungeon Master's Guild: ( https://www.dmsguild.com/ ) I wont add links because that content requires log in / account creation. I want easy, direct access for all content on this list.

And are these official free ones? Sounds great there are lots of free stuff but these campaigns can be blown in one session.  EDIT: Found One that will be Perfect. I just was lazy and didnt want to click all the links but found one on the bottom haha.  Tyranny in Phlan is between lvl 5-10 to start Last edited by Snapecot : Mar 20, 2020 Rollback Post to Revision RollBack #8 Mar 21, 2020 Terhonator Terhonator View User Profile View Posts Send Message (Perfect) Join Date: 3/27/2018 Posts: 229 Member Details List has some official ones and homebrew ones. Most of the stuff is from wizards so I think those are "official".

I will link only stuff that Wizards is sharing for free or homebrew content that is available for all people in internet.

We have just started. So far we have played one adventure and just started another one. I am already tweaking and planning on adding adventures within adventures. We are such a small group that I have also created a Gnome, Bard who travels with them! This is a great page........spending hours just dreaming!

I'm really excited ! Do you know if it will soon be available?

I am really glad to hear that you are DMing Clam Island! If you have any more comments, questions or ideas please post everything to this thread:  https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/14861-clam-island-campaign-questbook I am at the moment preparing / playing Goldfish Archipelago campaign for first time with 2 players so I dont wish to publish it before we have finished the campaign. Clam Island is public because we have finished it already. Which main quest line your players chose for Clam Island?

I'm a little confused though. How are these free? For example, isn't Out of the Abyss an official adventure (it certainly isn't free on DnDBeyond)? I'm just wondering what makes these different from other adventures that have to be purchased.  Thanks again!
