About the adventure
🧿 A Dark, Lovecraftian Campaign of Cosmic Dread 🪶 Custom Content & Original Story 🧝 Roleplay-Driven Horror 🧊 Survive the Frozen North 🌌 Confront the Unknowable 📖 A Story Shaped by Your Characters 🩸 Inspired by: The King in Yellow & The Thing ❄️ “The cold preserves… but it does not forgive.” Far to the north lies Rovnas, a frozen land where Goliaths and Dwarves carve out fragile lives beneath an endless blizzard. But something ancient stirs within the snow — an echo that should have remained buried. When a mysterious patron offers each of you 25,000 gold to retrieve a vinyl from a long-dead city entombed in the frost, the task seems simple. But as the journey unfolds, the line between reality and nightmare begins to crack. The aurora hums with impossible color. Voices whisper in languages no mortal throat could shape. And through the storm, something watches. The stars are shifting. The silence isn’t empty. Will you return with your sanity… or join the choir beneath the ice? 🕯️ Perfect for Players Who Enjoy: Deep, character-driven narratives Creeping dread and psychological tension A slow-burning horror that rewards curiosity 🌠 The expedition leaves soon. Bundle up. Bring your courage. And don’t look too long at the sky.

About me
Hi! I'm Maiya, an artist, game designer, and professional Game Master. I started running D&D 5e games for my friends and immediately fell in love with the medium. Since then, I’ve branched out into systems like Cyberpunk RED and Daggerheart, crafted collaborative fantasy worlds, and even been developing my own TTRPG system. To me, tabletop RPGs are a way to express creativity and bring stories to life with others. I often find myself talking with players daily about upcoming sessions and what we’re all excited to explore next. TTRPGs have been deeply meaningful to me, helping to heal my soul and giving me a creative outlet I can share with the world. Growing up in the USA and spending three years in Japan has also greatly influenced my storytelling and artistic vision. In my games, I prioritize collaborative storytelling, crafting worlds and stories together with my players. I love roleplay-heavy sessions with immersive storytelling, but when combat occurs, it’s challenging and high-stakes, making every encounter feel intense and meaningful.

What Maiya brings to the table
All the content I own via D&D beyond. Immersive ambience music. I provide a story with characters first, meaning every characters story is intertwined to the main plot.
Homebrew rules
Flexible Initiative: Allows the players to choose each round who will act next. The rounds work as a back and forth between the players and the DM. This makes combat significantly faster, gives more player agency, and keeps everyone engaged.

Safety
How Maiya creates a safe table
During Session 0 we will be going over all the safety tool and agreeing to a code of conduct. This will outline all rules and topics we want to be off-topic, No exception! I also make strong use of the X, N, & O system, where a player can PM any of these at anytime to interrupt the session and allowing me to change course. My sessions are always against any hate speech of any kind.
