Dungeons & Dragons B/X, Dungeons & Dragons 1e | Campaign
About the adventure
Barely one day's march from Kelven, the uncharted tracts of the Dymrak forest conceal horrors enough to freeze the blood of civilized folk. Those who have ventured there tell how death comes quick to the unwary-for the woods at night are far worse than any dungeon. But you are adventurers, veterans of many battles, and the call of the wild is strong. Will you answer the call, or are you afraid of the dark terrors of the night? Nights Dark Terror is one of the first Wilderness style campaigns It opens up The Grand Duchy of Karameikos to your party and lets you travel where you wish with tales of terror for you to piece togther and follow. You and your friends must make the right decisions and use all your skills and courage to succeed. Come along and explore the world of Mystara where game play is simpler and far more deadlier. Playing by post gives you the freedom to enjoy an adventure without the commitment to a weekly time of day to play. Play on your phone on the way to work, on the train on the bus or even at work Shhhh! I won’t tell. If you do not want to play with Video or audio or are unable to then this is the perfect medium to play an RPG game for you. This adventure will be a play by text asynchronous adventure. Asynchronous games are played as and when people have the time to play and no more than one person has to be online at the same time. By joining the group you commit to posting at least once a week, more is better.
This is a play by post game you are billed at the set time of the game but play as and when you can. The game will start when it has the minimum amount of players.
