The Zlatorog Chronicles: Sleepy Meadow
What ought one say as each hardship comes? I was waiting for this, I was practicing for this
About the adventure
"A giant has been sowing fear and chaos among the western hamlets of Maribor. Our intel notes, that it is also a vampire, apparently. As if a rampaging giant isn't enough, this one uses magic to conjure a fog and catch its prey unaware. Its prey being humanoids and beasts, but it even took down an adult Wyvern, as reports indicate." You are employees of the agency Zlatorog, tasked with hunting down creatures of evil. This latest report suggests that the creature, despite it being a giant, is difficult to track without an appropriate specialist. Its also quite possible, that standard martial weapons will not harm it. Approach this one with diligence, hunters. Sidenotes: - the setting/world is an equivalent of 17th century Eastern Europe - create a level 2 character or I can send you a pre-generated one If you have any questions before signing up, feel free to ask! Best regards

About me
Tabletop games open the possibility for great experiences. If done right, they can be deeply fulfilling and meaningful. I've read plenty of highly rated fantasy books, seen just about every relevant fantasy movie and read countless texts regarding myth and story-telling. All of these elements combined comprise my GM fuel which allows me to give players a strong ''theatre of the mind'' experience and create moments where they can let their inner creativity manifest. I have been actively GM-ing since 2019, the longest campaign lasted 3 years (bi-weekly schedule). I have had players of all ages at my table, still friends with plenty of them to this day. My favourite, fantasy writers: Joe Abercrombie & GRR Martin novels: First Law saga, Song of Ice and Fire, Witcher books, Dark tower fantasy TV series: Game of Thrones, 90's Hercules(nostalgia), fantasy movies: LoTR, 1st Jurassic Park(nostalgia) game: Witcher 2&3, God of War first trilogy, Final Fantasy 9 I prefer the stories we tell at the table to be in the vain of gritty fantasy while maintaing a degree of humour which works well within a darker setting. I highly enjoy giving players plenty of freedom. If they want to ignore the main quest and instead rally all the hyenas in a neighbouring savannah, announce themselves supreme beast-masters to the neighbouring kingdoms, then lead the gargantuan host of hyenas and storm the white walls of Minas Tirith? I'm all for that.

Ivan is, without a doubt, one of my favorite Game Masters around. His games are consistently inventive, filled with fresh ideas and unexpected twists that keep players on their toes. He has a real talent for improvisation and rolling with the punches, making every session feel alive and responsive to player choices. What really sets Ivan apart is the way he allows players to shine. He creates space for character development, clever ideas, and bold moves—always encouraging creativity and rewarding roleplay. He’s also incredibly fair, with a solid grasp of the rules that keeps everything balanced while still leaving room for cinematic moments. Most importantly? His games are just plain fun. Whether you're a seasoned player or brand new, you’ll leave the table already looking forward to the next session. Highly recommended.

Ivan ran an unforgettable Daggerheart one-shot and I, for one, need more. He understood the rules very well, which helped him run the game very smoothly. But must of all, his ability to incorporate players in setting scenes and creating the narrative was exemplary.
