About the adventure

You awaken deep below the surface, imprisoned by drow and surrounded by horrors. With no gear, no map, and no idea who to trust, you must escape the Underdark before it drives you mad—or worse. But something darker stirs in the depths. 🕷️ Survive the Depths: Navigate twisted tunnels, fungal forests, and alien caverns. Face mind flayers, demons, and worse in a world with no sun and no mercy. 🕷️ Flee or Fight: Escape is only the beginning. As demonic madness spreads, the question isn’t if the Abyss will rise—but when. 🕷️ A Descent into Chaos: For players who enjoy gritty survival, uneasy alliances, and high-stakes exploration in a world turned upside down.

About me

I’m a full-time GM with a tech brain and a storyteller’s instinct. I run clean, well-prepped games with a healthy dose of improvisation and just enough chaos to keep players guessing. I love throwing players into situations they’ll definitely survive (probably). Also: unapologetically committed to terrible accents, delivered with great enthusiasm.
