About the adventure

If you want to try an Old School game, but weren't sure you wanted to commit to a campaign, try a One-Shot! Play a character in an old school-styled dungeon crawl and see if this style of play is for you. I love it, and you may too! New players welcome!

Game style

Dungeon Crawl

A “Dungeon Crawl” is a scenario where players navigate a dungeon or labyrinth-like environment for the entirety of the adventure. It emphasizes battling monsters, collecting loot, and avoiding traps to survive to the end!

How to prepare

Discord, Mic, (video optional) and Fantasy Grounds Unity client. No need to purchase anything: my license allows me to run games for Demo clients. Useful, but not necessary to read the rules - use this opportunity for discovery!

What I provide

Quick hack and slash, some exploring, a little role playing, delving through dungeons and caves to enjoy an evening playing a little Old School Essentials without committing to a campaign. All you need is Discord, a Mic, and Fantasy Grounds Unity VTT app. https://discord.gg/2thJVYemae Characters are already created and ready to play. Just jump in and begin exploring (fighting, setting off traps, stumbling through forests and caves, etc.) No commercial materials - all my dungeons are created by me!

Gameplay details

Players can expect fighting, traps, and spell use. In a dungeon and caves, so descriptions of closed-in spaces. Monsters are usually out to get you. Old School games were typically very challenging to characters. Death was frequent. As heroes in search of gold and glory you brave those dangers, and clever players can win out the day.
