About the adventure

Hie away, hie away! Over bank and over brae, Where the copsewood is the greenest, Where the fountains glisten sheenest, Where the lady fern grows strongest, Where the morning dew lies longest, Where the black-cock sweetest sips it, Where the fairy latest trips it: Hie to haunts right seldom seen, Lovely, lonesome, cool, and green; Over bank and over brae, Hie away, hie away! - Sir Walter Scott This adventure into the Feywild has players solving mysteries, escaping or fighting various denizens of the Feywild, and more! It is meant for players who love solving puzzles and riddles with an air of otherworldly magic thrown into the mix.

About me

Hello there! I'm Anya (she/her) and I'm an American expat living in Germany. I have 26+ years of acting experience and have been playing a variety of TTRPGs since 2009, GMing since 2019. While English is my native language, I also speak French and German. I regularly guest on streamed Actual Plays on Twitch, from Girls Run These Worlds to EUphoria to Live from the Apocalypse and more! I also won the 2025 CRIT Award for Best Indie GM! While D&D 5e is certainly a staple, I adore exploring the less common/popular TTRPGs, such as my personal favorite, Candela Obscura, and got my start in the Serenity RPG back in college. I'm also a Silver Bestseller with my 5e module The Curse of Fate and my Candela Obscura Assignment, The Woman in Red! I look forward to playing with you. 🥰

Character creation

Creating your character

Characters for this game will be level 8 and can be created on your own on D&D Beyond. If you have any questions or are new to D&D, I am happy to meet with you for a half hour to build your character with you! I use the 4d6 method for stats, where you roll 4d6 and drop the lowest number for each roll to determine your character's stats. All players also can pick out one Uncommon magic item for their character!

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Basic webcams (optional) and mics are perfectly fine! This isn't a streamed Actual Play, and the important thing is that we are able to see each other and understand one another. (Note: not required for Play-by-Post games, which are played on my Discord server!) Please have a basic understanding of the rules of 5e, but you don't need to be an expert by any means! That's what I'm here for. You are welcome to have your own physical dice to play with, or you can use virtual dice on websites such as D&D Beyond or even just Google's dice rolling system.

What Anya brings to the table

I will bring a whole host of LGBTQ+ NPCs, maps, and a fascinating Feywild adventure for the characters to explore.

Safety

How Anya creates a safe table

We will discuss the Lines & Veils list in a quick session zero before starting the session, with names stripped away to remain anonymous. There will be no graphic gore in this game, as it is one of my lines, and will be at most fade to black. If at any time a player needs to modify their Lines & Veils, they are absolutely welcome to message me privately, and we will pivot/update that information accordingly. After the session, we will give a quick recap of how the session went and if there were any shifts in tone needed to ensure that all players have an enjoyable time.
