About the adventure

In the east of the Empire lies the haunted realm of Sylvania. Once a prosperous and valued region of the empire, it fell to Vampiric corruption some 500 years ago and has never been right since. Falling under the power of the Grand Duchy of Stirland, the land is still tainted with ill reputation. Refusing to allow this blight on his family's reputation, the Elector Count of Stirland has put out a call for any and all who are willing to help purge the land of Sylvania of undead, curses, and other dark portents. Past crimes will be ignored, pay will be offered, and to the heroic and competent positions of power may even be made available. It will not be an easy task, many who join the endeavor are likely to join the hordes of the undead lurking in the foggy depths of Sylvania. Despite this, the pay is good, the work is moral, and forgiveness for past misdeeds is rare. It is up to you to stand up against whatever dark threats lurk in Sylvania and put them to rest. You get to be one of the great heroes the Empire needs!

About me

Hello, my name is Oscar and I am a game designer and active GM! I hope to GM a wide variety of games for an equally wide variety of people so that I can experience more perspectives on TTRPG's. I like the strange and the niche and want to bring unique TTRPG experiences to life! I've been a GM since 2017 and in that time I have run a number of different types of game. From galaxy spanning space adventures to gritty and cruel low fantasy I can run a variety of different tones and settings. I tend towards more combat but I am just as happy to run more story and role-play focused games. I'm not overly attached to any one system, and if I don't already know it I'm happy to learn it. I've actively run 5e, Lancer, Crowns, Five Torches Deep, and Shadow of the Demon Lord as well as familiarized myself with Eclipse Phase, Wrath and Glory, Starfinder, Pathfinder 2e, and the Lumen Engine.

Our party ranges in experience and Oscar has done a fantastic job of answering questions that arise while not getting bogged down in explanation. His campaign ideas are fun but have potential to get gritty as well. Friendly, safe, just played last night and already looking forward to next week.

Oscar is a good guy. He runs a good game and shows his enthusiasm for the genre. He lets each of the players shine in their own way.

Oscar is great, he's wonderful at responding quickly to unplanned decisions made by the players, he has a strong grasp of the rules and when something is unclear, he's quick at deciding a fair choice that will keep the game moving. Highly recommend!
