About the adventure
Dive into the story of one of the BEST classic horror universes this October with this Alien Earth inspired level 3 D&D one shot! Your crew has been dispatched to deal with a crashed ship here on Earth. A routine rescue mission, or so you thought... Something is hunting you in the claustrophobic halls of the ship. A perfect predator. The creature lurks in the shadows, waiting to strike. And it has some new friends... Your only hope of survival is to work together, but paranoia seeps in as the aliens become all too powerful! In space, no one can hear you scream... On Earth? They just don't seem to care... This is a Level 3 one shot! *Note that this will be played via D&D and not the Alien TTRPG system. You Can Expect: 👽 A Horrifyingly Good Time 🎙️ Professional Voice Acting ⚔️ Horror movie tropes galore! 🎨 Beautiful Scenic Art 🗺️ Evocative Battle Maps 🎵 Immersive Soundtracks 🎲 FULL D&D Beyond Access 🤗 A Safe and Accepting Environment for those with disability, neurodivergence, & the queer community.

About me
My name is Kelly (they/them) and I have been playing TTRPGs for over 10 years. I've GMed for a wide range of systems, including D&D, Powered By The Apocalypse, Vampire: The Masquerade, and more! Right now I am the Storyteller for Tabletop Tiddies (Tiddies By Night). I have sat at the table with some of the big names of the industry, including Matthew Mercer, B. Dave Walters, Erika Ishii, and Noura Ibrahim. My style is very malleable, adjusting to the wants of the players. I run a safe table that prioritizes consent and inclusion, and my games are always LGBT+ friendly. My favorite themes vary wildly, I love Horror, High Fantasy, Sci-fi, Modern, and Survival. I enjoy heavy RP focused games, but won't shy away from a good fight. I've run multi-stage epic level fights, as well as personal 1v1 duels on church roofs. I use Roll20 for maps, tokens, and audio (all ambiance, so you can mute if you have auditory concerns), and the players can use whatever they prefer for their sheets. I also have all of D&D Beyond unlocked for your use! We'll play over Zoom or Discord.

How Kelly Wright creates a safe table
- A lines and veils consent form will be sent out in advance along with the D&D Beyond Campaign Link and Roll20 Link. Please fill it out to the best of your ability before our session, and we can go over it during the session. - The Content Warnings listed are a guideline, all content will be adjusted to the comfort of all players! - We will have a session zero featuring introductions, safety tool explanation, and expectations for the game. - A 15 minute break will happen at the halfway mark of every session. - If at any time during the session you feel uncomfortable or unsafe, you can type X in chat, say X out loud, or make an X on camera and I will stop the scene and address the problem. - At the end of the session we will do "Stars and Wishes" where everyone who would like to can share their favorite parts of the game and what they'd like to have more of in the next session. 📖 House Rules: - Drinking a potion can be done as a bonus action (roll for it) or as an action (max HP). - Nat 1s and Nat 20s are automatic criticals. - Magic Scroll Usage: Arcana DC is 10 + spell level - If you don't feel comfortable doing a character voice, that is totally ok!
