Night of the Bacci
An idyllic isle lies empty; its people vanished. Seductive music echoes through the alleyways, luring you into the forest and the night is drawing in.

About the adventure
Welcome to a world inspired by the classical myths of Ancient Greece. Where Gods walk the world, and mortals can become legends. Night of the Bacci is a one-shot adventure set on a beautiful island paradise, surrounded by warm blue waters and filled with an air of mystery and promise. Embark on an epic quest to find the missing villagers of the island, track down where that sweet music is coming from and do battle with the god of wine & song. Designed as one shot to be played by a group of 3-6 players, this adventure is for those who daydream of classical Greece, its myths and monsters.

About me
I'm Rob, I've been DMing for friends for the last 7 years and for paying tables for the last 2. At my table, I believe we are all there to tell a collective story together. I encourage good-natured roleplay and respectful humour so everyone can feel they are part of the team. With a background in creative writing and improv comedy, I offer a table where the story captures your imagination, and even the daftest jokes help tell the story we're telling together.

Creating your character
Players can choose either from a selection of 6 pre-made characters designed especially for this adventure, or if you'd like to discuss preparing your own character, which can be arranged if done far enough before time.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
We will be using Discord and D&D Beyond as well as Beyond VTT function. Invites to a server will be sent out a day in advance of the session for some session 0 discussions and to allow players to discuss the adventure beforehand.
What Rob brings to the table
My approach to Game Mastering is centred on collaborative storytelling. Expect an emphasis on roleplay, with rich narration, distinct character voices (including some silly ones!), and fast-paced, occasionally brutal combat. I ensure a sense of fair play and encourage player experimentation in all encounters.

How Rob creates a safe table
Safety & Boundaries Before we begin, I will message each player to outline the adventure’s themes and establish clear player boundaries. I am committed to adapting this story to ensure everyone at the table feels comfortable and respected. During play, we will use the Red Flag Rule: If any content from the GM or another player crosses a line or causes distress, simply "raise a red flag." We will immediately pause for a five-minute break to address the issue, either publicly or privately, and adjust the scene before continuing.
