About the adventure
“Green is the color of life. It is the color of rot. When you see it creep into your towns, you rip it up. When you see it bloom beneath your skin, you bleed it out. But despite your struggle, it always returns. When your cities, your skin, your bones, and your virtue are gone, all that remains will be green.” - Gorthos, the Beast of Blight - A creeping rot festers in Wickermoor Hollow. A once-vibrant forest has fallen to a virulent blight that consumes trees, animals, and people alike—threatening to seed all life with rapidly spreading decay. Those willing to endure the poisonous reaches of Hartsblight Forest must unearth and purge the source of the blight to put a stop to the spreading menace before it turns all to rot.

About me
I have come here to chew bubble gum and crush campaigns. And I'm all out of bubble gum! I love both roleplay and combat and tailor the ratio to the needs of the table. I've run a combat and exploration focused Tomb of Annihilation campaign as well as a roleplay heavy and whimsical Wild Beyond the Witchlight. I can be funny, silly, serious, or weird, and I'm not afraid to improvise and follow the needs of players, even if that means going off the rails or side-questing on a whim. I've been running games on Startplaying for over 3 years and running home campaigns over 30 years. I have a ton of experience and I often bring my own stories, art, and maps to the table. Current Campaigns on Startplaying: Monday 10am EST - Crooked Moon Monday 2pm EST - One-shots Tuesday 10am EST - Vecna: Eve of Ruin Tuesday 3pm EST - Call of the Netherdeep Wednesday 10am EST - Call of the Netherdeep Wednesday 2pm EST - Hoard of the Dragon Queen Thursday 7pm EST - Vecna: Eve of Ruin Friday 2pm EST - Call of the Netherdeep Completed Campaigns on Startplaying: Tomb of Annihilation Storm King’s Thunder Candlekeep (2x) Wild Beyond the Witchlight (3x) Spelljammer: Light of Xaryxis (3x) Journeys Through the Radiant Citadel (2x) Keys from the Golden Vault Dragonlance: Shadow of the Dragon Queen (x2) Book of Many Things (Level 1-11) Adventure Academy (Level 1-10 homebrew) Planescape: Turn of Fortune’s Wheel x2 Curse of Strahd Liveplay Streams: Wild Beyond the Witchlight https://youtu.be/N_fFk-FZcE0?si=2z7wg4Ow6p8zPYN- Curse of Strahd https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcJAqFFseKg&t=71s
