About me
DMing since 2015, have run official D&D WoTC Campaigns and homebrew ones that ran from months to years. Love teaching newbies but also grinding it out with the veterans. I'm experienced with both adults and kiddos, have professional background coaching kids and adults competitive swimming. Come one, come all! I have rules not just for Dungeons and Dragons 5e, Knave & Shadowdark for Fantasy but also Delta Green (Lovecraftian Detective), Vaults of Vaarn (Weird Scifi) and Mork Borg (Doom Metal RPG)

Creating your character
Players will create characters at the beginning of the session since it is so quick and then boosted up to level 3. Simple sheet of paper will do or can download a premade character sheet to fill out. This module and session has little to no continuity to adhere to unless players really enjoy their characters and wish to proceed with a larger adventure later on.
The Waking of Willowby Hall is an adventure designed by YouTubes Questing Beast, a whimsical romp through a "dungeon mansion", a highly interactable adventure that has dangers both inside and outside! Adventure designed to be completed in one session!

What Nashcraeft brings to the table
I will bring the rule system and adventure module. Theatre of the mind will be employed with a few visual/audio aids to liven the mood. Can expect LOTS of gameplay and interaction with the adventure, opportunities to roleplay with NPCS and affect the story, and a rules light system that favors rulings over rules. I will send everyone the available drafts of the Knave 2e rules pdf, which is only a dozen and a half pages in its entirety.
