About the adventure

This is the 'Nest of the Eldritch Eye' one-shot adventure! A dark, dungeon crawl through the bowels of Neverwinter at the request of Lord Neverember himself. As a band of militia you will charged with investigating a strange murder within the City. What will you discover along the way? Who will be in your company? Will you survive the horrors you unearth? A fully immersive experience with top down token art, detailed maps and a soundtrack underscoring the whole game. If you love the Forgotten Realms setting, then this game is certainly one for you. Free session 0 - character creation / and discussion prior to the actual game (as listed). Can run a few of these sessions if people can't all get together before the actual game just to help accommodate peoples work / lives a bit better. (Also any characters that are created can be saved and brought forward again for other one-shots or campaigns).

About me

Greetings, adventurers! My name is Sylvander and I'm delighted to be bringing you a collection campaigns and one-shot adventures. I have a background in storytelling, art & theatre. I have experience running heavily immersive games using Foundry VTT and Discord for a wide audience of diverse players, and I always look forward to seeing what each player brings to the table. The systems that I prefer using are D&D 5e (2024), Power Rangers RPG, Marvel Multiverse RPG, Pathfinder and Warhammer 40k: Wrath & Glory and Imperium Maledictum.

Character creation

Creating your character

The available options for character creation are comprised from the following books; Player's Handbook (2024), Eberron: Forge of the Artificer (2025), Heroes of Faerun (2025) & The Horrors Within (2026). This one-shot adventure is set at Level 3 for all characters. Players can either select a top down illustrated character token from a predetermined pool of top down illustrated characters. Or players can submit their own top down character token prior to the adventure starting (eg. their own token kitbash, a token they may already use or have had custom made prior).

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Players must prepare by having access to Discord (used for voice), and access to a chrome web browser that supports Foundry VTT (used for the game). Players must have a microphone and headphones to be active in the Discord voice calls. All players will be provided with Foundry VTT log in details on discord prior to the game beginning. Free session 0 - character creation / and discussion prior to the actual game (as listed). Can run a few of these sessions if people can't all get together before the actual game just to help accommodate peoples work / lives a bit better.

How Sylvander creates a safe table

Session 0 will be the initial point that players can bring up anything they would like to avoid. Going forward players can also reach out to the GM privately through discord through an Open Door policy and make their concerns known. Alternatively, they could make use the X,N & O cards digitally within Foundry mid-game to signal any immediate concerns within a session.
