About the adventure
One step. New world. New problem. Every door drops you somewhere different. No map. No warning. • Strange places Dead cities. warped spaces. places that should not exist. • Real danger Old threats. harsh rules. mistakes that stick. • Strange faces Allies you might trust. rivals you might regret. • Classic adventures Old school stories rebuilt for 5e. Tough choices. Real stakes. Pick a door. Let’s see where it goes. [[Beginner & LGBTQIA2S+ Friendly]] -------------------------- 📣See what Jerry has to say about my GM'ing: ⭐"I've always been curious about D&D and somewhat head this misconception that if I tried to seek out a game I would be met with a gatekeepy vibe for not knowing the rules. I thought I'd have to read all the rule books before I even started. Leopold was so welcoming and helpful with setting up a meeting over discord to create my character and the conversation flowed like we were old friends and not at all rushed. The game experience was everything I'd hoped it'd be with his storytelling and the participation and enthusiasm from him and the rest of the group. I can't wait for next Wednesday to play again!"

About me
Hey everyone, it's me, Leland, aka Leopold the Just in most social media spaces! I’ve been deeply invested in tabletop RPGs since the start of the millennium, & I still love every second of every game I run or play. Aside from that, some of my other interests include going to music events, board gaming, playing strategy & RPG video games, camping, traveling, eating delicious food, learning more about science & art, getting tattoos, going to aquariums & museums, & much, much more. As a GM, my storytelling focus is on strange events, haunted & horrific places, emotional buy-in & consequences during roleplay, & NPCs you won’t forget. I run everything from cozy slice-of-life games to bleak horror, sometimes both in the same session. If you love group storytelling & want to play in an immersive world that feels alive, then I’m the right GM for you. --- What to expect at my table & in my community: • Sessions with a strong narrative focus on character development • Action-packed, descriptive combat that keeps you on the edge of your seat • A living world where NPCs react & evolve based on your choices • Shared storytelling that includes everyone, with collaborative worldbuilding that lets you leave your mark • A chill, inclusive space where everyone is welcome & every identity is valued • Exclusive $5 community one-shots for active members, bringing players from across tables together for fresh stories & shared adventures • Regular community events: exclusive access to my discord video game streams, board game nights, video watch-parties, & a live Kenku FM radio station; all to offer recreation during downtime between sessions So go ahead & pull up a virtual seat. Let’s tell some stories together!

How Leland House Jr. creates a safe table
I'll have everyone submit lines/veils/interests via DMs, then I will distribute a pdf document for the other players to have on hand or have it as a handout in the VTT of choice. Then we'll go over them during session 0, along with making characters and doing some collaborative storytelling to establish relationships between said characters. I typically post a custom agenda the day before session 0 begins.
