About the adventure

The pirate ship Inheritor has been plaguing ships up and down the coast for years, but the behavior of the pirates has changed over the last few months: instead of taking booty from the vessels they attack, Captain Jarzon and his pirates are capturing crew members and taking them away. Those who know of this new development suspect that the Inheritor has become involved in a slaving business, but the truth is even more sinister. The captain of the Inheritor is a recent convert to a very old religion: that of Shar-Ngolyeth, That Which Lurks Beneath the Tide. Captain Jarzon believes he has been promised great power, in exchange for which he captures people to sacrifice to Shar-Ngolyeth. His ultimate goal is unclear, even to those of his crew who have also converted, but he sometimes speaks of an island beneath the waves.

About me

Hi! We are Peach (Keeli Rae) and Grim (John), a married couple of DMs/GMs passionate about TTRPGs. Grim has been a DM for 24 years and has run Dungeons and Dragons from First to Fifth editions, Pathfinder 1st and 2nd editions, Vampire the Masquerade/World of Darkness, Call of Cthulhu, Cyberpunk Red, and Aliens. Peach has been playing for about five years and running games for over a year. She mainly runs DND 5E. We can run Warhammer 40K for Glory Fantasy and Kids on Broomsticks. What should you know about us? We take time and care to prep for each session. We will customize each adventure with stories and plots to make our players' experience one of a kind. Do you like fantasy? Other worlds? History? Fan-Fiction? Heists? We got you. What about horror? That's Grim's Favorite! If you've got an idea, we can help it come to life to be played through. We are also happy to assist players in developing backstories for their characters throughout a campaign and will create custom quests based on those backstories. We love working with players of all levels, from the brand-new to the more experienced. We are also LGBTQIA+ friendly. Come hang out with us as we travel through worlds and adventures!

What to expect

Preparing for the session

just need discord and mic as this is how I communicate mostly. Please create characters ahead of time so there is a chance to go over it and it does not cut into playtime. Characters can be made via D&D beyond or the Charactermancer in Roll20. I also have a selection of pre-generated characters made, if players wish to just jump right in or have a tough time making characters.

What Peach and Grim Games brings to the table

I bring my compendium on Roll20 that can be used in-game. These include: Dungeon masters Guide Players Guide Volos Guide Modenkinin Tome Monster Manual Xanathars Guide A Heist on Roll 20 Tasha's Guide Van Rickten's Guide Fizban's Treasury The Phantom Woman Mines of Phandelver Tales of the Yawning Portal Ghosts of Saltmarsh Raven's Call Multiverse Blood of the Fallen Star Strixhaven and more!!!!
