Prevailing wisdom often states that a Dungeon Master should never split the party. However, going against prevailing wisdom is often a way to create new and memorable experiences for players. It’s possible to create a unique cinematic experience where the tension rises as each half of the party watches what the other is going through.
Split The Party provides advice, encounters, and an original adventure that guides Dungeon Masters through dividing the party in ways that enhance the suspense and create a cohesive experience from multiple angles. Whether it’s one half of the party trying to survive on their own while the other half desperately tries to locate and save them, or the characters taking on different tasks while preparing an extraordinary feast, there are many ways for the heroes to work together separately towards a common goal.
