Changeling: The Lost Second Edition, Chronicles of Darkness | Campaign

About the adventure

It is 1923 and in the United States prohibition has been going on for 3 years. Organized Crime now has a solid foothold in American society as they supply alcohol to those willing to pay. And you have just escaped from the Gentry. You are a Changeling, once human you were taken from your life by a Fae. They tricked you, enticed you, or maybe just took you. Whatever it was they took you for, they changed you and broke you to their will until you weren't you. With some luck and skill, you managed to escape and come back to the world. You came back to Harrodville, a town south of Chicago. It's just far out enough that people can brew alcohol to sell to the Chicago Outfit. From the woods come them, the Hobs, creatures of fairy tales, myth, and on occasion servants of the Gentry. They cause havoc and make sure you can never forget that you were taken. This game takes place with custom courts based on common conflicts of the time: The Court of Order who seek to be the calm in the store. The Court of Hedonism who are desperate to enjoy themselves. The Court of Abstention who loathe the loose morals so many engage in. The Court of Liberty who express themselves to their fullest. The Court of Subversion who are consumed by greed. The Mob, the cops, the Hobs, the Gentry, and getting back your life. These are the challenges you face as a Changeling in The Wyld 20's!

Oscar is a great storyteller and he makes playing an awesome time. He knows how to bring in each player's strengths and challenges and makes them all fair game. You get to grow as a player and as a character. He does an excellent job of teaching players the game and if he doesn't know an answer he finds it quickly. As someone who hasn't played TTRPGs in a long time, he made coming back to the gaming table a great experience! I highly recommend him as a GM for a levels of game players. I wish I could choose more than 3 tags to describe his awesomeness.

Oscar has a fun, flexible and creative GM style that encourages storytelling and player autonomy. Any player who appreciates imaginative use of the rules would have a blast playing in his campaigns. He also has a knack for making sure each and every player gets an equal share of story time so everyone has a chance to shine.
