About the adventure

I’m obsessed with vampires, werewolves, zombies, and all things Gothic horror, and I’ve channeled that passion into a Dungeons & Dragons campaign full of dark atmosphere. You’ll explore haunted castles, cursed forests, and shadowy wastelands, all filled with the terror and mystery I love so much. If you’re ready to dive into the darkness with me, this is the campaign for you. Join me for a game that’s welcoming and engaging for everyone, with a darker, more serious tone. This adventure invites you to make decisions that shape your path through a narrative filled with twists and turns. Your choices will matter and shape the outcome of this campaign. We’ll be using a virtual tabletop (VTT), a digital platform that brings the gaming table to life with high-quality maps and tokens. It’s accessible from any computer-based web browser, making it easy for you to jump right in. I’m known for my attention to visual detail, a solid grasp of the rules, and setting the perfect mood, so you can expect an immersive and engaging experience. I'm looking forward to seeing you at my table!!!
