About the adventure

Uses the 2024 ruleset, for full info the onboarding section on The Gaming Peeples. "Tom is a talented and wonderful GM. His guidance of character and story is masterful. Weaving character plots and personal tweaks seamlessly into printed material (I have only played Icespire peak with him so far) gives the world and the story a depth that I find rewarding. His combats are smooth with excellent soundtracks the add ambiance without overpowering the mood. He has a wonderful balance of player agency while still moving the story forward and how he resolves skill checks and narrative events are as fun as they are insightful. I really cannot recommend him highly enough, it is one of my favorite tables to have sat at as a player.

Game style

Rule of Cool (RoC)

“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.

Combat Heavy

“Combat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.

Roleplay Heavy

“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.

Dungeon Crawl

A “Dungeon Crawl” is a scenario where players navigate a dungeon or labyrinth-like environment for the entirety of the adventure. It emphasizes battling monsters, collecting loot, and avoiding traps to survive to the end!
