About the adventure
Grab your proton pack and your pumpkin spice—something spooky is going down in the fields outside town. New players welcome. No experience busting ghosts required! Welcome to Ghostbusters International, a game of laughs, slime, and supernatural chaos powered by the classic D6 System! In Pumpkin Patch Panic, strange events are unfolding at a sleepy farm just days before Halloween. Reports of moving scarecrows, glowing pumpkins, and missing farmers have hit the Ghostbusters tipline. It’s up to your team of rookie Ghostbusters to gear up, investigate, and stop whatever eldritch harvest is brewing before the town gets carved up like a jack-o’-lantern. This one-shot is perfect for new players, with a simple plot, funny dialogue, and light horror that's more “cartoon spooky” than scary. Whether you're an '80s fan or just want to try a rules-lite game with personality, this adventure is a perfect introduction to Ghostbusters International.

About me
Hello everyone! Greetings from Greece! I've been delving into the world of roleplaying games for over 15 years now, with around 10 years of experience as a Game Master. While my heart remains true to the timeless allure of DnD 3.5 edition, I've also developed a fondness for running Cthulhu, Savage Worlds, and I'm always eager to explore new systems. My passion lies in fostering immersive roleplay, orchestrating epic battles, and crafting captivating adventures that leave players on the edge of their seats. As a business owner, I cherish the flexibility of my schedule, allowing me to delve into professional gameplay experiences for the sheer joy of it, while seeking players who are equally devoted to character development and the intricate tales that unfold. Beyond the gaming realm, I find solace in horseback riding, and I've also found myself drawn to the world of arts, wearing the hats of both a singer and an occasional actor. Initially, my journey into acting was motivated by a desire to enhance my skills as a Dungeon Master. However, my profound love for the arts, including playing the piano and professional singing, has led me to embrace the world of theater, where I've actively participated in numerous productions. Looking forward to connecting with fellow enthusiasts and weaving unforgettable stories together!

Storytelling
Knows the Rules
Sets the Mood
Antigoni runs a great, inclusive, engaging campaign. I love how she keeps the story moving along, and continually checks in with each player so that everyone feels like they have a seat at the table. Her command of game mechanics is solid, RAW, any questions or ambiguity are quickly resolved. Story elements are carefully woven together. Finally, Roll20 is like a second language to her, there is no waiting, no fumbling around, the game progresses seamlessly.
Antigoni is a wonderful DM. I am currently playing Age of Worms with her, and she has put a lot of thought into the world and the characters within it, making each interaction feel significant for the character you cherish so much and are bringing into the game. I am only a month and 3 levels into the game and I can already tell that this is the type of campaign and DM style that forever DMs, such as myself, are always searching for. I highly recommend playing in one of Antigoni's games if you get the chance to
I have been playing with Antigoni for over a decade so I might be a bit biased - but then again she has avoided joining the endless piles of the GMs I don't play with... so that has to count for something :P Antigoni's GM style if more focused on the narrative, the story telling and the player choices, she is very experienced both in D&D and many other RPGs. If you are the kind of player who enjoys more story/narrative focused games I think you would totally enjoy her games.

How Antigoni creates a safe table
This game is designed to be fun, spooky, and silly, but everyone's comfort comes first. Here's how we’ll ensure a safe and enjoyable session: 📋 Lines & Veils A short Lines & Veils form will be shared digitally before the session (via Google Forms or StartPlaying tools). You can fill it out anonymously and update it at any time. We’ll review shared boundaries quickly at the start of the session. 💬 Session Zero (Mini Version) Since this is a one-shot, we'll do a brief 10–15 minute Session 0 to: Set the tone (cartoon horror, comedy-focused) Review boundaries and safety tools Go over rules and how the dice work Introduce characters and answer any questions ⛔ X / N / O System We’ll use X (stop), N (neutral/slow down), and O (okay/continue) in text chat or voice, whichever is easier for you. You can also send me a private message at any time during the game if something feels off or needs to change. 🤝 Aftercare We’ll spend 5–10 minutes post-game to: Check in emotionally Share highlights or concerns Let everyone decompress and say goodbye 🎮 Gameplay Style Tone: Lighthearted horror-comedy (more Scooby-Doo than Stranger Things) System: Classic Ghostbusters D6 (rules-light, fast-paced) Playstyle: Roleplay-focused with quick, funny combat and creative problem-solving Style of GMing: Player-driven, flexible, and supportive of wild ideas and improv
