Report Adventure

About the adventure

"It's very unusual, to hear reports of Wild Griffins hunting as a pack. It's a well known fact that they're solitary creatures, and to think their flock is made of 6 to 12 fully matured adults is a chilling sentiment. Yet the massacres that all happened on the same day, and the evidence found on all sites paints a unsavoury picture...Two local farmers and their stock, a merchant from I'lmadris and a small unit of the Queen's army. Together totalling 14 dead. The beasts also killed the animals, 12 horses and some livestock, however they did not feast on their carcasses...can't say the same for their human victims. This latter part of the report is also an anomaly, Griffins tend to shy away from human flesh and adore horse meat. So how can we be certain that the culprits are Griffins? There's no mistaking the feathers, long as a man's arm, found on all three crime scenes. And claw marks on the bodies...cuts so deep they'd make a Grizzly shiver.'' You're members of Guild Zlatorog, tasked with hunting down cults & creatures of evil across the Realm. This mission will require you to track the flock, investigate the phenomenon of what brought these apex predators to form a unit and report back. By no circumstance should you engage with the flock. Even a single mature Wild Griffin is a substantial threat in an open field. Sidenotes: - viable for new and experienced players - players bring a level 3 character sheet (I can send you a pre-generated character if you'd like to skip this step) If you have any questions, feel free to message me. Best regards

About me

Tabletop games open the possibility for great experiences. If done right, they can be deeply fulfilling and meaningful. I've read plenty of highly rated fantasy books, seen just about every relevant fantasy movie and read countless texts regarding myth and story-telling. All of these elements combined comprise my GM fuel which allows me to give players a strong ''theatre of the mind'' experience and create moments where they can let their inner creativity manifest. I have been actively GM-ing since 2019, the longest campaign lasted 3 years (bi-weekly schedule). I have had players of all ages at my table, still friends with plenty of them to this day. My favourite, fantasy writers: Joe Abercrombie & GRR Martin novels: First Law saga, Song of Ice and Fire, Witcher books, Dark tower fantasy TV series: Game of Thrones, 90's Hercules(nostalgia), fantasy movies: LoTR, 1st Jurassic Park(nostalgia) game: Witcher 2&3, God of War first trilogy, Final Fantasy 9 I prefer the stories we tell at the table to be in the vain of gritty fantasy while maintaing a degree of humour which works well within a darker setting. I highly enjoy giving players plenty of freedom. If they want to ignore the main quest and instead rally all the hyenas in a neighbouring savannah, announce themselves supreme beast-masters to the neighbouring kingdoms, then lead the gargantuan host of hyenas and storm the white walls of Minas Tirith? I'm all for that.
