About the adventure

An old professor invites you to his cabin for the evening. A doctor fallen on hard times calls you frantic and raving, begging for your help. A family farm has become a distillery for a batch of moonshine that's poisoning locals. This is a series of 1 shots containing 3 investigations that will keep you on the edge of your seats from start to finish. The horrors abound but you must act quickly. It's up to you to stop the monstrous things lurking in the shadows before they reach the light of day, there's no time to scream. See Recruiting Notes for details on the specific 1-shot for this time slot.

Excellent GM, super helpful, and has a wonderful personality. He is also very patient and will help explain things if you need help! I had a wonderful time! After playing again with him, I can tell you that my review originally was correct! I will also add that he is really good at making the world feel alive and I love how he gives room for players to roleplay! It's a great time! Definitely recommend Mike to anyone!

Had a great time in a one shot campaign. He did an excellent job teaching me as Iโ€™ve only played Pathfinder once before. I definitely look forward to getting in more games with them.

What a great teacher and intro into the world of Daggerheart. I would recommend Mike as a GM to anyone new to Daggerheart and wanting to try it out. He answered every question quickly and thoroughly. You can tell he has a great grasp on the system and the online tools we used.

Character creation
Creating your character

This game will use pre-made characters the stats are in place but you can feel free to bring life to the character and make changes to their appearance personality and other narrative focused details.

The current party

It was supposed to be a fun social evening with the professor and some new friends. It doesn't take long for things to start feeling off. What secrets are being kept from you? They can't be that horrific, right?

Safety
How Mike_d20 creates a safe table

We'll have a brief session 0 where you can pick your characters and learn how to use the tools within Alchemy to play Call of Cthulhu. We'll also go over the basics of the rules and how a few key mechanics work. Alchemy makes it very easy to use the X card we'll review this before any sessions start. All sessions will include a short break especially after more intense moments; players can also call for breaks whenever needed. I also have an open door policy so players are welcome and encouraged to reach out to me about any issues at all.
