Trying to survive out of the darkest fairytale
Changeling: The Lost Second Edition, Chronicles of Darkness | Campaign
About the adventure
All that time, taken by the Extraordinary Once, it felt impossible to get away. Even in the agonizing moments of hope, you knew there is no way the Noble will let you go. It was their fairytale, and you were just an actor, a puppet, a toy. And yet, that night something was different, a phenomenon happened, so important, that for a moment possessing you, or not, became meaningless. That was a chance you had to take. So here you are, back into the safer mundane, normal houses, normal streets, only you are no longer fully normal. But you can't shake a feeling of unease. Wasn't the Noble going more or less in the same direction as you? You will need to create a life that could hide you, find allies, fight off the lesser servants and eventually understand the looming threat better. Even facing a godlike being, you did not give up yet, so no reason to do it now, after you actually got out. It may look dark now, but so does the night before the dawn. *** The same setting is shared with a Vampire the Requiem, Werewolf Forsaken and Hunter the Vigil games I am planning, so actions from one campaign might influence the other. https://startplaying.games/adventure/cm8qufy94003mnu3s4avdltd6 https://startplaying.games/adventure/cm8qv4ncb008rnu3sywayx21k https://startplaying.games/adventure/cm8v7u0ak0003gzc962rn7o3n In case of any questions, or suggestions please feel free to contact me here, or on Discord: dridenwornegon

Good Storyteller.

Driden is a game master with a vivid imagination and a sense of adventure. I especially like how he creates characters who are hags or witches! Moroever, he knows how to adjust the level of difficulty of the game to particular people, so regardless if you are a newbie to RPG or an experienced player, you will have a lot of fun!
Bessus
A fantastic Master for both beginners and veterans. The history he created in D&D made my first contact with this system absolutely amazing (this is a feat for a person raised on WH). However, what makes him absolutely unique are his own worlds and stories, which you immerse yourself in completely! So much so that players start calling each other by their characters' names even outside the game! However, he has one flaw...time flies too fast during the session!

We played few campaigns together, one spanning for a few years, and he always has fresh ideas and interesting concepts, keeping you on your toes. The stories are engaging and when we play the time simply flies by, unnoticed. At the same time, he can handle strange player concepts well, adjusting accordingly to whatever shenanigans we did. I can strongly recommend him, whatever adventure you'll start will be an unforgettable one :)

Driden has been runnin one of the longest campaigns I played in ever. It was epic, and amazing and we even had follow up campaigns after that! Wanna have fun and love through amazing adventures? Sign up, it ain't easy finding someone as good as he is!

I have played in a fascinating universe of "generally our good old Earth, but with some supernatural twists, added elements from known fiction, etc". Driden finds hidden gems in history and books and smoothly incorporates them into our world. Plots are precise enough that we know what we're doing, but open enough for us to explore some crazy ideas. When we suddenly think of something really surprising, Driden doesn't try to push us back on track, but lets us go where we want and somehow makes it about some part of the plot. His NPCs seem to be full persons, not just a few needed traits sewn together. We can ask them quest questions, but also talk with them about life, work, or family - and the talk will be natural.

How to prepare
A willing spirit and an open mind should suffice, but it would be nice to have some initial ideas for your Lost. Session 0 will obviously be free.
What I provide
I will be on camera, but you don't have to be. There will be images for NPCs, major places et cetera, so it will be easier to track. I will also try to have ambient music and sounds through the session. Definitely putting on some mannerisms, et cetera, while role playing the NPCs.
Gameplay details
CW: Changeling can seem whimsical, but underneath it can get really, really dark, so let's be ready for it.
