The Museum of Magical Oddities is hosting its exclusive Moonlight Gala: an evening enchanted celebration where nobles, scholars, and thrillseekers gather to witness the unveiling of rare arcane artifacts. You and your party have been hired as temporary “guest curators,” which is really just a polite way of saying night security for hire during the most prestigious event of the season.
At first, the evening glimmers with elegance: floating lanterns drift through the atrium, enchanted performances captivate the crowd, and each exhibit radiates its own peculiar magic. But as the moon reaches its zenith, the museum’s wards begin to strain… then unravel.
Suddenly the night shifts. Animated exhibits wander the galleries. Hallways twist into unfamiliar configurations. Guests whisper about odd disappearances. And somewhere in the chaos, the enchanted ambiance changes, and you can tell you need to be extra cautious.
You must navigate social intrigue, enchanted halls, and increasingly restless displays as you decide the fate of several powerful magical artifacts that everyone wants but only some should have.
Will you protect the museum? Exploit the chaos? Or make a choice that will be remembered long after the moon sets?

Dungeons & Dragons 5.5 Edition
https://dnd.wizards.com/start-playing-dnd
Description:
The first Dungeons & Dragons game was played back when Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson chose to personalize the massive battles of their fantasy wargames with the exploits of individual heroes. This inspiration became the first fantasy roleplaying game, in which players are characters in an ongoing fantasy story. This new kind of game has become immensely popular over the years, and D&D has grown to include many new ways to vividly experience worlds of heroic fantasy. The core of D&D is storytelling. You and your friends may tell a story together, guiding your heroes through quests for treasure, battles with deadly foes, daring rescues, courtly intrigue, and much more. You can also explore the many worlds of D&D through any of the hundreds of novels written by today's hottest fantasy authors, as well as engaging board games and immersive video games. All of these stories are part of D&D.
