About the adventure
When the rains refused to leave, the valley flooded and crops rotted. All suffered, except Greystone. Before their gates were closed to the outside world, rumours of full larders, plump bellies and great feasts turned many a jealous eye their way. But now the city has fallen to some inhuman corruption, twisting the land and people. Growls, groans and shrieks can be heard for miles around, and from the sewers pour a thick syrupy blood. Doom has come to Graystone. Inspired by Darkest Dungeon, your crew of crawlers will embark on a series of raids on the lost settlement of Greystone. Gather treasure, complete quests for the local guilds and Church, set up safe rooms to help crawl even deeper into the darkness and most importantly, get out before you run out of light.

About me
Trans Woman approaching 40 at the speed of time. TTRPGs have been a major part of my life for well over 25 years now and most of that time has been spent in the DMs chair. I'm a huge believer in collaborative world building and a world that feels alive. I'm in training to be a therapist, so safety at the table is something I prioritise. This is especially important with the horror themes I love including. I'm a lifelong horror fan, and the key is giving enough to let your imagination run wild, rather than going for shock value. As well as building and releasing tension. Theres a reason some of the best horror films have moments of humour scattered through out and I love building that sense of dread along side the comfort of the group to lean on.

Creating your character
Players will make a level 1 character using the options in the core book. Character creation for Shadowdark is fast and easy. At the start of the session we will run through character creation.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Check out this youtube short for a quick overview of the process of character creation, but full details will be provided at the beginning of the session! https://www.youtube.com/shorts/sB98KEZKxAU
What EldrichTea brings to the table
A free Discord account is all you need for the game. We will be playing with Owlbear Rodeo which is a VTT that works in your browser, no account needed! Once you join the game, I will send you an invite to the Discord server. We will be using Monty Cooks consent form that I ask all players to complete, in confidentiality, before the session. Players can choose to roll virtual dice or their own physicals, if you too are a dice goblin.

How EldrichTea creates a safe table
I have completed my Level 3 Counselling, so while this is a horror themed game with potential for character death, I still put the saft of the table first and foremost. There will be space for a check in and check out at the beginning and end of the session. We will be using a consent form to tailor the experience to the table. Lines and Veils are available at all times.
