About the adventure
Brindlewood Bay is a game that combines "Murder, She Wrote" with H.P. Lovecraft. You'll play a group of elderly women, members of the local Murder Mavens Mystery Book Club, who help the authorities solve murder cases in a picturesque New England Town. Over the course of their investigations, they become aware of a dark occult conspiracy that connects the cases, and will eventually have to face that conspiracy in order to save their community. So get out your knitting set, grab those baking recipes, and let's solve some murders!

About me
I've been obsessed with RPGs since I was in middle school and my friend handed me the D&D 4e handbook. I've been playing RPGs off and on through various one-shots and mini-campaigns since high school. Those early years my DMing career consisted mostly of my brother and I messing around in one-on-one sessions. Things really started kicking off for me in college, where I ran and played in multiple campaigns. I ran Star Wars FFG, Legend of the Five Rings FFG and The Expanse campaigns throughout my college years. It was also around this time that I started learning and performing Improv, which hugely impacted how I ran and played the game, as well as shaped me as a storyteller. I generally enjoy a lot of narrative and roleplay, with a healthy dose of combat, and lately my goals for DMing include improving my combat encounters. Join my games if you want something other than D&D5e! My favorite systems right now include: Mothership, Delta Green, Forged in the Dark, Carved from BrindleWood, and Slugblaster!

Creating your character
Character creation is super simple and quick. You don't have to crunch any numbers, and you don't need a super fleshed out backstory, we'll discover all of that through play! We'll create characters together during Session 0 before hopping into our first mystery!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
All you need to play is to friend me on discord (PentaPo#5614) and I'll take care of the rest!
