About the adventure
🎪Wild Beyond the Witchlight is a wickedly whimsical Faerûnian adventure. It starts at The Witchlight Carnival, a traveling extravaganza that only visits this world once every 8 years for a mere 8 hours. Though many secrets lie beyond the masks and facepaint of the carnival, you will need to uncover them if you wish to complete your quests.🎪 🎭This module is fairly roleplay heavy, as the module itself is built with the ability to be completed without ever having lifted a bludgeon or blade. That doesn't mean you won't be fighting at all however it just means there is always a peaceful solution to every encounter. I welcome one and all to join my table, whether you're a beginner on their first campaign who needs a lot more help or a seasoned veteran with over a thousand sessions under your belt.🎭 🎟️As a DM I tend to focus more on player agency than anything else, giving you total freedom to decide where and when the party goes somewhere and how they deal with the events that come up. I may nudge you in a direction and offer advice when asked but the decision is ultimately your own. So, what are you waiting for? Don your gear, strap your boots and buy a ticket.🎟️ ✨The carnival is about to begin✨

About me
I've been playing tabletop games almost my whole life in varying capacities, however I only picked up DND in high school during my freshman year. I was taught most of what I know today from my DM at the time. My junior year is when I picked up the curse of being a GM since then I've been running games on and off depending on the availability of my friends. Now I'm looking to improve upon my skills as a GM by running more games for more people, possibly making a few friends along the way while enjoying the hobby we all love to immerse ourselves in. I may have 5 years of experience as a GM but I always have room to improve and I'm looking to improve with every session I host.
