About the adventure
A beautifully written and engaging adventure for players seeking to find a missing daughter in a town brought to its knees by a mysterious malady unlike anything anyone has seen before. A rich cast of NPCs to question and interact with (with a variety of moral standpoints and ways of seeing the world), investigation, traps, adventure, and a good balance of roleplay and potential combat. This is a short adventure in the play-by-post format, lasting between 3-6 weeks depending on the pace of the group as a whole. Discord, Owlbear, Tupperbox and Avrae used for smooth flow in combat and immersive roleplay. An attentive DM in UK timezone for posting. One off ticket price for the entire adventure. No ai writing, a fleshed-out setting with depth of description, responsive NPCs and the chance to explore as much as you wish.

About me
I have always had a love for sword and sorcery, and a compelling story. Since finally getting the chance to come to the table a couple of years ago, I have found my passion in play by posts. I love to meet new characters, weave worlds and tell tales, form bonds and offer difficult moral choices. I believe that play by post can offer a chance for real and meaningful role play between characters, and make TTRPGs accessible to those with a difficult schedule, or who are shy, or for any other reason are unable or reluctant to make a regular table - or for those who can and just need a daily fix to keep them going! I have run many play by posts, both short 6 week adventures and on going campaigns, and they are always a lot of fun. Everyone is welcome at my table so long as they are respectful to others. I love diving in with experienced players and guiding those who are new. I use Owlbear, tupperbox and avrae via Discord to provide the most immersive experience possible, and always work with my players to give them the most epic experience for their character in the setting.

What The Silent Bard brings to the table
Tupperbox provides clear and individual NPCs with real personalities, responsive to player choice and engagement. I will tailor some aspects of the experience to characters and their reasons for being a part of this adventure, perhaps putting moral choices before you, nods to your character's personality. If you want to try something I'll try to find a way to make it happen!
