About the adventure
Welcome to the world of high-risk, high-reward mercenary work, where danger lurks behind every contract, and fortunes are won or lost with the turn of a blade. You are no mere sellsword—you’re a member of Claude Bahdley’s Mercenary Guild, a ragtag yet fiercely capable company that takes on jobs across the legendary lands of the Forgotten Realms. From the neon-lit underbelly of Skullport to the sprawling wilderness of the High Forest, you’ll carve out a reputation running missions that range from escorting eccentric wizards, reclaiming lost artifacts, taking down infamous outlaws, or meddling in political games far bigger than yourselves. With Claude at the helm—a veteran of both war and deception—there’s no telling where your next job will take you. What you can count on is action, intrigue, and the constant battle between loyalty and personal gain. The Guild always pays well, but survival? That’s up to you. Will you seize glory and riches, or will your name be lost to history like so many before? There’s only one way to find out: Take the contract and step into the adventure.

About me
I've been running games since the early 90s. I have a pro-player mentality, which means I want your characters to succeed with their goals provided the dice gods see fit to allow them. I have run games for people aged 8-65, modules, campaigns, and my favorite homebrewed adventures. I love new players, and watching the sense of wonder and freedom light up the faces of people who may have forgotten how to play with their imagination. I am most certainly willing to teach new players the proverbial ropes, or grind through a tough tactical challenge for experienced players. I've run many homebrew campaigns, pre written campaigns, and so many one-shot adventures over the years it would be tough to put a number on it. I am not a professional voice actor, but I do change my voice for different NPCs. I am not a professional game designer, but, I do write my own adventures, hombrew settings, monsters, all kinds of oddball magic items. I run a fun game, with serious moments, quirky NPCs and serious laughs. Let's have some fun together rolling dice and creating memories for you and your friends. Custom one shots and campaigns available by request.
