Crooked Moon
The haunting whistle of a spectral train trills through the fog, promising adventure and danger in a land between life and death.
About the adventure
You recently found yourself in the possession of a strange ticket for a vehicle known as the Ghostlight Express. It has a time, date and name of a town on it: Druskenvald, however you are certain you've never heard that name in your life. As you read the ticket, a strange feeling comes over you like a shiver through your spine. Something isn't quite right. You hear the bell nearby tolls midnight as a fog slowly begins to creep up you as the sound of a fiddle begins to play in the distance. The squeak of nails on a chalkboard is heard as an old black locomotive, rusted and battered from age rolls out of the gloomy mist, slowing to a halt in front of you and opens it's doors revealing the dimly candle-lit passenger car... All Aboard. COME EXPERIENCE THE BRAND NEW FOLK HORROR CAMPAIGN WRITTEN BY THE CREATORS OF LEGENDS OF AVANTRIS AND TRY ONE OF MANY NEW SPECIES AND SUBCLASSES USING THE 2024 RULE SET!

Me and my friends found Luke when we were looking to start a new campaign and we really lucked out! He’s great at keeping informed on the rules and making sound ruling, extremely approachable, considerate, knowledgeable, and willing to collaborate with players to make whatever fun creative experience you have in mind work. Also, his use of Foundy VVT is *on point*, and seamless. Would absolutely recommend to otherso, especially if you’re trying to get into D&D 2024.

What GM Luke brings to the table
First and foremost my love for the game and the setting. I enjoy helping people write their own stories and bring them to life within the world. An inclusive and friendly atmosphere to help everyone feel comfortable and have the best campaign possible. Years of knowledge and experience with game mechanics, roleplaying and VTT functionality. I have a fully optimized VTT and use custom artwork, tokens and audio to help with immersion.

How GM Luke creates a safe table
This setting is clearly a horror setting that may be unsettling for some people. It is the thing of nightmares. We will have a session zero to go over lines and veils and discuss what we would like to have and not have in our game. I am always ready to halt play to address concerns players may have at the table. I want everyone to feel safe but understand that this is a horror themed campaign. I will have XNO cards at the table and my dm's are always open for concerns.
