About the adventure
The adventure takes place in the Firefly Cellar, a windowless basement beneath the House of Rest, so named because its only light comes from lamps lit by swarms of fireflies. After spending the night here, you and your fellow adventurers wake up in the morning with the same tune your their heads. Is this a curse or just a catchy tune? Sometimes it’s both! ---------------------------------------------------------------- Are you new to D&D? Do you want to try it out but don't want to start a FULL campaign yet? Do you like roleplaying? If you answered yes to any of these, this is the game for you! Hi, my name is Ryan. I am a Los Angeles-based veteran Improvisor and DM looking for players like you! I encourage roleplaying and use my years of Improv experience in the game to keep it interesting, surprising, and FUN! So come along and join me for a few hours of spooky fun!

About me
Hello, everyone! My name is Ryan, and I am obsessed with D&D. I am a professional illustrator and improviser based in Los Angeles. I started my D&D career as a player about a year ago and instantly fell in love with this game, and I decided that the best way to share my enthusiasm was to start being a GM. I will be using these unique abilities to draw people to D&D and show them why it is the greatest game ever created.
