About the adventure
This scenario is homemade by me and is a favorite of my longtime players. It is heavily inspired by Scooby Doo and is a fun campy mystery. The overall tone will be light and focus on solving the secrets of the old mansion. While it may be on the lighter side, that doesn’t mean there’s a bit of darkness present in Clarkesville.

About me
Hey everyone. I am Dakota, screenname BoSSman. I started my TTRPG journey playing AD&D 2E in the early 2010s with friends. Nowadays, I still play D&D 5E, but I have 5 years experience as a Keeper for Call of Cthulhu, my favorite RPG. I also have experience as a Game Mother for Alien, and a GM for FFG Star Wars. I love coming up with scenarios and writing out interesting things for my players to work through. Adding a fun, light hearted touch to horror is something I enjoy, but I'll also add the mysterious and gruesome when it's needed. I am new to GMing professionally and look forward to the experience with you all.

What BoSSman the Keeper (Dakota) brings to the table
This scenario is made by me, so I have all the maps, handouts, and premade characters. I have run this scenario multiple times and know it inside and out. I am not great at voices, but I attempt to give all NPCs one. I stick to the rules but am flexible and open to fun ideas.

Safety
How BoSSman the Keeper (Dakota) creates a safe table
The scenario is not designed to be very disturbing or intense. However, if you are bothered by anything or the game approaches something you are not comfortable with, DM me or voice your concern out loud. I will cut back on or avoid topics that will cause issue. I want everyone to enjoy a campy mystery together!
