About the adventure
Something strange is happening to your hometown of Willowshore! Nestled on the banks of a river winding through the legendary Specterwood in Tian Xia’s haunted land of Shenmen, the people of Willowshore are no strangers to supernatural threat, but the danger that comes to town on the first day of summer is unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. Over the four seasons to come, you and your fellow home-grown heroes must face evil spirits, sinister fiends, and frightening curses, lest the town of Willowshore succumb to the Season of Ghosts! 🎨 I partner with the talented artist Jay Echo! Players who sign up to play with me can commission them for a character art piece at a special rate! https://linktr.ee/Jayecho

About me
Greetings, fellow adventurers! I’m Gerik, your dedicated Game Master! For years, I’ve been immersed in the world of tabletop RPGs, guiding brave heroes through fantastical worlds. I bring a blend of creativity, humor, and immersive storytelling to every session. I look to foster a table community where everyone can laugh together and feel welcome. I have been described as theatrical, high-energy, and a bit of a madman when playing a nefarious villain. But above all, I am a GM who wants you to have a good time, and I'll do my best to make that happen! But don't just take my word for it, check out my reviews to see what others have to say! My tables support 100% human made art! 🎨 I do not accept generative AI in my games.

What to expect
Preparing for the session
In the Season of Ghosts Adventure Path, each player character calls Willowshore their home—be it one their family has lived in for generations or a place they’ve only recently arrived at. Due to the overarching mystery and plot, it is required that players utilize the player's guide for this adventure. You can find it here: https://downloads.paizo.com/SeasonofGhosts_PlayersGuide.pdf No software installation or account creation is required. Access to a stable internet connection and your browser is all you need! A mic is required, as well as a set of headphones for all the music and sound effects. Getting into a roleplaying mindset is very highly encouraged!

How Gerik creates a safe table
Each player who joins my server is required to sign my onboarding document, where I outline all my table/community rules. These cover topics such as behaviors that will not be tolerated as well as other housekeeping topics. Refusal to sign this document disqualifies players from playing at the table to ensure the safety of all members who do.
