When Winter's Gone is a whimsical Christmas-themed one-shot that can be played by anyone at any moment. Taking place in the village of Oakhurst of The Sunless Citadel prominence, this one-shot provides insight not only into Faerûn's cosmos and constellations, but also introuces quirky and not always good creatures that want to hijack the holidays and the solstice of winter celebrations...
On the 20th day of Nightal brings along the Winter Solstice and, with it, the celebrations of the Faerûnian year-end. The festival known as Simril, celebrated by communities of various walks of life, takes shape with food, drink, and festivities until dawn. People seek in the firmament the constellations that will govern the following year, while children eagerly await the gifts that will be delivered to them by the legendary faun of winter, the Winter Father.
The mists that cloak the Sword Coast on the day of the solstice are seen as a blessing from Tymora - finding the constellations in the sky amidst the mists is a sign of good luck. But what else lurks in the low clouds and the Simril spirit?
