About the adventure

Unusual and frightening things have been happening in Ravensdale, and apparently elsewhere as well. Travellers are bringing strange tales to the Inn and everyone's talking about creatures, and magic, and thaumaturges of old. One of the recent guests has moved on, but he was apparently more than he seemed to be because it is suddenly very important to track him down. You were the last people to see him, so everyone is looking hard at you.

About me

I'm a geeky gamer mom who loves a good story. I run wholesome, accessible, PG-13 games from a variety of systems. I prefer fantasy and horror settings and love to run a good mystery or heist. Players under 18 are permitted at my tables if an adult family member is also playing and the rest of the table agrees. Please talk to me ahead of time about this. I am committed to making my games accessible! Please let me know what your needs are and I will do my very best to accommodate them.

Character creation

Creating your character

You may bring a character who has already run through Chapter One (A Shadow in the Barley), if it fits the vibe of our Ravenhome. Or you can create a new Origin-level character to join this adventure. We will have much discussion of character creation on Discord leading up to adventure start.

The current party

The local Innkeeper/handyman and bard could use an extra pair of hands. Starting first week of June 2026

What to expect

Preparing for the session

We will be using Foundry for dice rolling, images and music and Discord for communications. You will need a Discord account and a microphone. You do not need anything but a modern browser for Foundry. I will send you a direct link and you won't have to sign up for anything else.
