About the adventure

This is a special opportunity to play exclusive dungeon delves from Shadowdark: The Western Reaches! Experience classic TTRPG exploration with straightforward rulesets and old-school principles. The cultists of the Elephant God lurk in their dark domain, murmuring prayers over a glut of riches. Rumors say the Kings of Kyroa have paid them a fortune in exchange for their wicked sorcery, and now the Jewel of Alkalla glitters in their coffers. The prize is too tempting to ignore... Play with me, an experienced OSR GM. Check out my material here. https://www.gnomestones.fun/ https://gnomestones.substack.com/

About me

https://linktr.ee/gnomestones www.gnomestones.fun You can call me Scraw, Sam, or something else. I was raised on old-school Dungeons and Dragons, and carry forward classic principles in all of my games. I have experience running Dungeons and Dragons (ADND, 3.5e, and 5e), Dungeon Crawl Classics, Old School Essentials, and Cairn. I am founder and director of the Gnomestones gaming organization, which publishes TTRPG modules, creates content for youtube and twitch, manages the website www.gnomestones.fun, and hosts game development jams in the greater Olympia area. I am a long time nerd of fantasy, gaming, philosophy, and nature. My table is welcoming, supportive, and fun, and I have high hopes that the stories you will craft with me will be exciting and unforgettable! I have years of experience as an educator, leadership trainer, and therapeutic group facilitator. I apply my group dynamics training to ensure that my table is respectful, encouraging, and to help each player have fun at their own rate and in their own way.
