About the adventure
This one-shot unfolds in a quiet, forsaken village within the mysterious Forgotten Realms. Perched on the edge of a rugged coast, a solitary lighthouse stands as both guardian and sentinel over the dark, restless sea. But an ominous darkness radiates from the lighthouse, casting a sinister shadow over the rocky waters. The danger has become overwhelming—boats are torn apart, sailors are missing - no survivors have been found. This is a haunting, immersive horror adventure designed to grip your heart and ignite your fears, lasting approximately 3 to 3.5 hours. This game is for both new and returning players! We're excited to come together and dive into an adventure, using Discord for voice, Owlbear for tokens and visual maps, and Sync Tube to create an immersive atmosphere with background music. Feel free to share your favorite tracks! I'm 100% open to music suggestions to make our journey even more memorable!

About me
Hey there, friends! 🌟 Welcome to my corner! My name is Reno and I am a passionate gamer with a rich background in tabletop games and MMORPGs. I've been diving into the world of D&D 5e for 3 years now and have been running games for almost as long. I love creating a chill and laid-back vibe at the table. While I often lean into some spooky horror themes for our adventures, I totally encourage bringing in a bit of comedy too! So, let’s keep things fun and lighthearted—don’t hesitate to bend the rules and just enjoy the game! Can't wait to share some epic moments with you all! 🎲✨
