In this Ghibli-inspired adventure, you will: ✨ Explore a world of lush forests, ancient magic, and powerful spirits. ⚔️ Face armies of mages and divine guardians standing against the tide of corruption. 🌑 Confront the growing darkness threatening to plunge the world into chaos. 🔍 Uncover lost secrets and forgotten gods as you follow the echoes of the Last Song. Game Details: 🎭 Roleplay-heavy, story-driven campaign 📖 Starting Level: 7 🎁 Starting Gear: One uncommon magic item + base class equipment 🎲 Stat Gen: Standard Array, Point Buy, or Rolling Are you ready to make your mark on a world at the edge of change?

One of the best one-shot games I’ve ever played. From beginning to end, I felt truly included and seen; not just as a player, but as a person. Dylan/Alyx has an incredible talent for storytelling and player engagement. Their ability to make everyone feel welcomed at the table, no matter their playstyle or experience, is something special. If you get the chance to play at their table, take it. You won’t regret it.

The plot was clever, with a satisfying mix of mystery, exploration, and combat. The encounters felt challenging yet fair, and the pacing kept the energy high without feeling rushed. This was a phenomenal game

I was accepted to the game, asked a bunch of questions about the vibe and tone of the party so I could match it. Played one game where I spent 50% of the time waiting to join the party, and four days later was informed hat the rest of the players had changed their mind about adding a 5th player. Host did not refund the session.
