About the adventure

The quiet, snow-covered village of Deadsnows is no stranger to harsh winters, but something far more dangerous has begun to stalk the icy wilderness. Under the light of the full moon, villagers are found torn apart, their bodies savaged by a creature of unnatural strength. Whispers of an ancient curse spread through the town, and every snowstorm brings a new wave of terror. Is the monster a cursed villager or something far older and more sinister? In A Moonlit Howl, designed for 10th-level characters, players will immerse themselves in a classic werewolf horror adventure filled with paranoia, tension, and mystery. The setting of Deadsnows offers isolation and fear as the villagers turn on one another, suspecting that one among them may be the beast. Your party must investigate, search for clues, and navigate the growing suspicion to stop the creature before it strikes again. The line between hunter and hunted blurs with the full moon fast approaching. This adventure is for players who love suspenseful storytelling, dangerous combat, and unraveling dark secrets. Whether you're a veteran or newer to high-level gameplay, A Moonlit Howl promises a rich narrative experience with classic horror themes. Expect tense moments, tough decisions, and a race against time as your party uncovers the truth behind the ancient curse. Will you stop the terror or fall beneath the beast’s claws?

Party notes

Step into the snow-covered village of Deadsnows, where the full moon's light reveals something far more dangerous than the bitter cold. In A Moonlit Howl, a 10th-level adventure, you’ll investigate a string of brutal killings where bodies are left torn apart under the eerie glow of the moon. The villagers whisper of an ancient curse—and each night, the tension rises as they wonder who will be next. This adventure blends classic werewolf horror with intense investigation and high-stakes combat. You'll need sharp minds, quick wits, and strong teamwork to uncover the truth before the next full moon. But beware—what you find might challenge your sense of trust and loyalty. Who can you rely on when the beast could be hiding among you? If you love suspense, mystery, and the thrill of the hunt, A Moonlit Howl is perfect for you. Ready to face the curse of Deadsnows?

How to prepare

In order to enjoy the game online, you will need access to Discord, a microphone, and the rules for Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition. This fast-paced game assumes the player has at least a general familiarity with the rules and their character sheet. Have a character created ahead of time, and if you have any questions, you can always reach out to me!

What I provide

I use Owlbear Rodeo as a VTT and custom maps and tokens for player characters! Ambient music and various character voices will be used to help set the mood. If you have a fun idea for your character I always try and embrace the rule of cool when appropriate to let your character shine!

Gameplay details

How will character creation work

Character creation should happen before the game starts. Please design a character at 10th level, with a free feat at level 1 (variant human will not get an extra free feat). For stat generation, I encourage either using 2d6+6 or 4d6 drop lowest. This game assumes using the 2014 legacy ruleset and anything published under the 2014 rules is fine, if there is homebrew content you would like to use, drop me a line, and I'm sure we can make it work!
