About the adventure

THE LAST LIGHT OF BLACK HOLLOW Travelers whisper of a village where the sun sets too fast… and the night lasts too long. Tonight, you arrive in Black Hollow just as the final rays of daylight die behind the trees. Doors slam. Windows shutter. Villagers vanish into their homes without a word. And then the darkness moves. Discover a cursed village swallowed by living shadows, where nightmares hunt anything caught outside. Flickering lanterns are your only lifeline as the night grows colder, hungrier, and more desperate by the minute. Can you survive until dawn? There is no escape. There is no cavalry. There is only the dark… and whatever crawls within it. So, gather your courage, guard your light, and pray the sun rises again. Because in Black Hollow… the night hunts back.

About me

As an organized and detail-oriented Game Master, I bring rich plot lines and immersive story elements to every campaign. I specialize in weaving player backstories seamlessly into the narrative to create cohesive, unforgettable adventures. With experience spanning decades—from my start with the Red Box Dungeons & Dragons to my deep love for 3.5 edition—I’ve honed my skills and storytelling craft over time. After returning to 5E four years ago, I’ve been hosting weekly online games that keep players engaged and coming back for more. Currently, I run campaigns using the 2024 Dungeons & Dragons rules on the Shard Tabletop Virtual Tabletop (VTT) platform. Let’s roll the dice and make stories come alive!
