About the adventure
Your heart trembles as you wade past the too life-like stone statues - carved with rage, fright, joy, and devotion. They descended the Gorgon's Cave before you, seeking its monster or fabled goddess. You pray to only find the latter. Praying she'll revive the land before more starve. Lost Gods is a level 3 one-shot for D&D 2024 set on Theros, and inspired by Greek mythology. Specifically, Medusa's myth. You can expect: 🧠A dungeon crawl emphasizing varied solutions, not just brawn. 🐍Emotionally nuanced characters and antagonists. 🧭Maps, handouts, and art for a smoother, immersive experience. 🧝5 ready-to-go pre-made characters, including backstories and usage guides. 🤗A welcoming environment for everyone (Beginners, LGBTQ+, etc.) If you're interested in running Lost Gods yourself, it's part of Uncaged Vol.1, a feminist adventure anthology on the DMs Guild.

About me
Hi👋, I'm Franc, better known as Golvin. I'd like to be your GM. While I mainly run D&D, Call of Cthulhu, and Alien RPG, my real pleasure is trying new modules and systems. (Cowboy Bebop RPG anyone?) Which has led me to a specialization in running one-shots, often including highly detailed handouts, pre-made characters, and other player aids. I also write the Reviews from the Far Reams Substack newsletter, currently focused on helping others get the most out of Call of Cthulhu 7e modules.

Creating your character
Use one of 5 pre-made characters or create your own level 1 characters. If you make your own, please follow the character creation guidelines below. (Must be completed prior to the session.) --- Character Creation Guidelines --- - Standard Array or Point Buy only. - D&D 2024 PHB only. GM's Note: I provide all content via Roll20. Those wishing to use D&D Beyond may do so as long as I see your rolls in Roll20. (Note: D&D Beyond fails to mark 2024 content as legacy outside of the PHB and DMG.)
What to expect

To participate in the game, you will need: ✔️A Roll20* account (free), ✔️A Discord account (free), ✔️A microphone, ✔️A headset or quiet space (i.e. no background noise please). *Roll20 doesn't do well with touch screens.

Safety
How Golvin - One-Shot GM creates a safe table
After joining, players are sent my Line & Veils and ask for theirs in return. Which are then confirmed at the beginning of the session as part of a mini-session 0. During the game, if anything disturbs you, please tell me, leave an "X" in the chat, or privately message me. I will then remove the offending or skip past it. Likewise, if you feel the adventure is going in an unsavory direction but use an "N" instead. I will also check in if I notice anything is off.
