About the adventure
This campaign begins in a quiet, almost fairy tale world. Gods are myths, monsters are stories, and life is small and safe. Then a traveler arrives bleeding silver, ancient wards fracture, and something long sealed begins to wake. The illusion of safety shatters in a single night. As horrors press in from beyond the veil, the characters are noticed by greater powers. Gods, shadows, fey courts, and forces of death all reach out. You are not born special. You are chosen. Each character awakens a Calling tied to one of the five planes, shaping who you may become and who will hunt you. This is a grim dark, low magic campaign with challenging combat and meaningful stakes, without survival bookkeeping. Magic items are rare and significant, enemies are dangerous, and preparation matters, but the focus remains on story, atmosphere, and decisive moments rather than tracking rations or arrows. Expect creeping horror, ancient secrets, and a slow reveal of a broken cosmology. The world will not be saved easily. The question is not whether the darkness can be stopped, but what it will cost you to try

About me
I’m a creative easy going human in his 30’s based in rainy England. A little about me… I’m an arty, corgi dad who started playing ttrpgs in the dark times of Covid, quickly progressed from intrepid hero to Gm after watching way too much CR and D20, I started with 5e and have progressed into the new 24/5.5 what ever you wish to call it rules, and have recently started dabbling in Daggerheart. My games are collaborative, and rule of cool is key! I want to help bring the stories you want to tell to the table, and if the core rules don’t do it I’m happy to introduce homebrew/ third party content to help bring it to life (providing it isn’t utterly broken) In my spare time I am partial to coffee, drawing characters and gaming! But most importantly of all I am a corgi papa and he does like to add his own sound effects sometimes too…

Safety
How Iggy creates a safe table
I always begin with a Session Zero, where we set expectations together, discuss boundaries, and ensure everyone feels comfortable with the themes in play. I use tools such as the Deck of Safety to highlight topics we may want to avoid or approach with care. During sessions, I check in with players and encourage open communication if something is not working. Breaks are built in at the halfway point, and anyone is welcome to call for a pause at any time. My goal is to create a table where everyone feels safe, respected, and free to focus on the fun of telling great stories together.
