About the adventure
The noble Lady Olivia Leng has enlisted your group of skilled adventurers to enter the Monveau theater to investigate the disaster that followed the premiere of "The Horror Within", Bertrand Guillard's new play. Those who saw the play were driven mad by the site of it and fled into the night. Rumors have begun to swirl that there is something sinister lurking in the theater, and it holds to key to reversing the psychic damage. Are you up for the challenge? This is a 1 shot adventure from The Arcane Library, written by Kelsey Dionne. PCs should be 8th level, if you do not have an 8th level character, I'm happy to provide a pre-generated one for you for any class. Please note that this adventure does contain some horror elements including themes of devolving sanity from eldritch horror.

About me
I have 3 goals in life: Tell great stories, make awesome stuff, and pet every dog. I tell stories through acting, writing, and tabletop RPGs. I make awesome stuff through game design, crafts and fabrication, and producing events and shows. I'm still working on how to pet every dog. I am a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, as well as being Neurodivergent and I strive to do what I can to create a more equitable and accessible space for all marginalized people within the TTRPG world and beyond. I've been playing Tabletop Role Playing Games since 2004, and running games professionally since 2008. I've run everything from homebrew campaigns with friends to running at large scale events like GenCon and PAX for companies like Wizards of the Coast and Paizo, running Pathfinder Society games and teaching literally hundreds of people how to play Magic: the Gathering. I specialize in teaching new players, because I love introducing new folks to my favorite hobby.

How Dorian creates a safe table
Gameplay at my tables is immersive and roleplay driven. I pride myself on creating a fun, welcoming environment for all players no matter their experience level. I love running games for new players, and I'm always happy to help with rules questions. If you have a disability that requires accommodation, please reach out to me so that I can do my best to make that happen for you. Content Warnings: Horror, Isolation, Madness I use x cards as well as red/yellow for Table Safety in my games. You can find my full Table Safety FAQ here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Tw8q9vLwtmwNdrIJB4UN4GAUQkFPXppEDQqef0r4aiA/edit?usp=sharing I also have a commitment to providing a safe space at my tables, and therefore have a zero tolerance policy for bullying and bigotry.
