Channel Your Inner Rogue with 13 Heist Adventures in Keys from the Golden Vault<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Get the Mission, Plan the Caper, and Make Sure Everyone Gets Out Alive with the Prize<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Renton, Wash., February 2, 2023<\/strong> — D&D players are not strangers to impossible missions. A perilous heist requires careful strategizing followed by daredevil antics when something unexpected happens and the players\u2019 plan goes sideways. Dungeons & Dragons invites players to experience the thrill, drama, strategy, and intrigue of the heist genre in Keys from the Golden Vault<\/em><\/strong>, the latest Dungeons & Dragons book of adventures. Keys from the Golden Vault<\/em> will be released in North America on February 21, 2023 and on March 24, 2023 in the UK\/EMEA.<\/p>\n

\u201cA secret organization called the Golden Vault sends mission briefings to its operatives\u2014the adventurers!\u2014in the form of magical, golden keys that are inserted into what looks like a mundane music box. Instead of a pretty tune, though, the music box then provides a recording with all the information needed for the adventurers to hunt a particular item of interest,\u201d said Amanda Hamon, senior game designer on the D&D Team and co-lead designer of Keys from the Golden Vault<\/em>. \u201cIt\u2019s up to the adventurers to do the reconnaissance necessary to circumvent any defenses and pull off a legendary heist. Teamwork is paramount, because as so often happens in these capers, something will go wrong, and creative thinking could save the day!\u201d<\/p>\n

The Golden Vault is rumored to be associated with metallic dragons and based on one of the good-aligned Outer Planes. Its operatives help the downtrodden and innocent when the law can\u2019t. The organization\u2019s motto is: \u201cDo good, no matter the cost.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

D&D players can live out their fantasies of running a caper like one they might have seen on the silver screen in movies such as Mission: Impossible;<\/em> Ocean\u2019s 11;<\/em> or even The Great Muppet Caper<\/em>. The thirteen adventures in Keys from the Golden Vault<\/em> range from levels 1 to 11. They can be played as one-offs dropped into ongoing campaigns, or run as a campaign of heists perpetrated by the same crew.<\/p>\n

\u201cEach adventure includes two full-page maps: one that players can use to plan their heist, and another the Dungeon Master uses to run the adventure,\u201d said Chris Perkins, Story Architect of the D&D Team and co-lead of Keys from the Golden Vault. <\/em>\u201cThe players\u2019 map, however, is often unreliable or incomplete.\u201d<\/p>\n

Keys from the Golden Vault<\/em> has an alternate cover by Simen Meyer, available only through game stores, and an evergreen cover by Anna Podedworna, available in North America on February 21, 2023. Fans who pre-order the digital\/physical bundle at dndstore.wizards.com will be able to access the digital release on February 7, 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
