About the adventure

For generations, children across Etharis have whispered of The Beast, a nightmare that stalks the edges of every tale and every shadow. Most called it a myth until entire villages began vanishing overnight, their people torn apart and devoured. Shadowspawn and twisted horrors crawl from the woods, The Beast’s heralds, sent to test the strength of mortal defenders. Every attack feels like a warning, if the heroes fail to defend the innocent, Etharis itself will rot from the edges. And each time the heroes stand their ground, they hear the faint, mocking howl of The Beast echoing across the night sky, promising it will come for them. Now, prophets, scholars, and even desperate rulers whisper the same dread truth, The Beast cannot be slain by mortal steel. Only a collection of ancient relics scattered across the cursed lands of Etharis carry the power to bind or destroy it. Each artifact is hidden behind horrors of its own. Vampire lords that clutch sacred blades like toys, witches who weave curses around relics of faith, and long-dead kings whose tombs refuse to stay sealed. The world teeters on the brink of annihilation. Will you dare to hunt down these relics, piecing together the last hope of Etharis, or will you become just another story The Beast leaves behind in blood and ashes?

About me

Hello I'm Jack, a hopefully soon pro DM, and a so-so writer lol. I have over half a decade of experience in dungeons and dragons. I use fancy maps, well chosen environmental music, and a well chosen selection of third party books to enhance what we all love about this game. I will use your characters to enhance the lore of the world you will step into.

Character creation

Creating your character

Character creation will be level 3 character and creation will happen before session. Races will be those found in Grim Hollow books. Most third party Classes and Subclasses will be allowed. We will be using the 2024 ruleset

What to expect

Preparing for the session

A Mic will be needed and a discord of course. A PC will also be needed, a decent one is recommended but I've run for someone using a chrome book so I'm sure almost anything will work.

What Jack brings to the table

I bring custom, as well as paid for maps, carefully choosen music to enhance scenes, not to mention the grim hollow content and all WoTC content. Foundry will be used for VTT and discord for talking.

Homebrew rules

Influence die, grievous wounds, and other rules that are in grim hollow books as well as mutation and contamination from The Dungeons Of Drakkenheim to represent the madness around the world.
