About the adventure
The most dangerous magic school in Arthurian England. Irreverent, queer, and punk rock. They need to stop sending these damn grad students into the dungeon. | 🗡️🌊✨👸 | In this fantastical world inspired by Arthurian myth, adventurers will: - Create precocious student wizards - Attend sorcery classes by dubious professors - Race to plunder the school against other live adventuring groups! How is this a MMO? - Multiple adventuring parties with real players loot, murder, and scheme - Shared persistent world: help your fellow students or set-up traps to loot their corpses later! Why Shadowdark? - it's FAST - it's DEADLY - it's FUN

~~ Don't play someone else's script, PLAY YOUR WORLD! ~~ - ABOUT ME - I'm a middle school teacher who moonlights as a GM. I've GM'ed since 5th grade and now run a small alternative tabletop gaming collective specializing in small press, indie, and otherwise alternative TTRPGs for queer gamers. ~ No AI used in art or writing. ~ All human brain juice simulating medieval fantasy.

How dexter ✨ creates a safe table
We utilize a Player Intake Form for player preferences and lines/veils. We use a "raise your hand" function to indicate a moment to pause. As always, I'm available through direct message to discuss your safety. We are all co-collaborators in each other's fun and safety!
