About the adventure
Annam, the All-Father of the Giants, established the Ordning, the Law that imposed order and hierarchy on all their Lords. But now the Ordning of Annam is shattered. The ancient Law that was keeping the Giant Lords in check is no more! And to make matters even worse, the great Storm King Hekaton is missing. With him gone, there is no one preventing the predatory, merciless Lords from indulging in their desire for conquest. For, to the Giant Lords, the right to conquest and dominion belongs by right to the greatest and strongest. Like a storm, or an avalanche, their coming strife will be unstoppable and just as destructive for everything and everyone in its path. The giants’ tyrannical rampage will not only put the settlements of humans and other small folk in jeopardy, but also attract the attention of the giants’ ancient enemies — the Dragons — who will not abide the rise of another giant empire. It is only a matter of time before they will retaliate, unleashing a cataclysmic war... There was never a bigger threat to the peace of the lands. But you... you might have a small* chance to stop this storm, to avert this avalanche... _______________________________________________ Giants! Dragons! Size puns! And other, even worse things. Creatures older than both combined. An evil so ancient, that it was already old when the Giants were young... Who is going to look out for the little* guy? In this case, that would be YOU. Not the one doing the looking out, I mean being the little guy. And I mean, LITERALLY the little guy. The SMALLEST guy in the room, guaranteed. The Ordning and the Giant Lords' conquest? There is little* you can do about that. What you can do, is teach them that they shouldn't tread on you. Size matters*? Maybe, but it's not everything. Join this campaign. It will be HUGE* fun! It's a MASSIVE* undertaking against an IMMENSE* threat to everyone. This GARGANTUAN* campaign will take you from level 1 to level 11 (at least), and it's guaranteed to have the BIGGEST* BIG* Bad Evil Guy ever. I have remastered and changed a bit the story, to make it more immediately connected to and involved with your characters. I will connect your character's tiny*, little* backstory to the bigger* overarching narrative of the campaign, because I love doing that. And I remake and customize many maps in Dungeon Alchemist. I always foster an inclusive, chill environment for playing. This is not a competition, we're telling stories together, not playing against each other :) --> Session 0 is FREE, of course <-- It's the little* things ;) ----------------------- *giggle ...I stll have a GIGANTIC* reserve of size puns :)

About me
Hey :) My name is Frollo, and I love being a GM. See, the thing is, I love stories. And I love Tabe-Top Role-Playing Games because YOU get to tell AND live the craziest stories. To me, TTRPGs are a celebration of creativity and fun. The best stories come from their characters, and that's YOU in a Role-Playing Game! EVERYONE at my table gets to express themselves, and dream up crazy new identities to play with. I have a chill, relaxed GMing style, story-driven and focused on collaborative fun. The occasional, despicable PUN might also be spotted here and there, in all its cringe-worthy glory. And you are welcome to sit at my table. Beginner, first-timer, veteran, LGBTQ+, introvert and extrovert. It's a safe space for everyone. I promise we will have fun and tell a fantastic story, with you as one of the protagonists. I always customize and remaster the campaigns I run. I'm a big fan of mixing up your character's backstories in the campaign story, so players' choices are meaningful and their characters are part of what's going on. It will not be just another out-of-the-box Curse of Strahd. I am also very fond of redrawing and remaking maps in Dungeon Alchemist, so most maps will be custom made, with lights, colors, and 3d perspective. I have a Discord Server with channels for each group, and to track NPCs, places and all the things. We use it to chat and do downtime stuff as well, of course. Like haikus to commemorate the deceased... And lastly, I add some atmosphere to my sessions using ambience and encounter music. I might probably be the Worst case of "Forever DM" you've ever seen. I am from Italy, where I live, and I started playing TTRPGs a (very) long time ago, with a group of friends based around a our local game store - one of us actually worked in there. I might have played most RPGs ever published, once or twice. Or at least read them. I love D&D 5E because it reached a great balance of fun, versatility and rules. It is also a very welcoming system for beginners. But in cases of emergency, I can "break the glass" and GM Vampire, Cthulhu, Cyberpunk and Pathfinder like there's no tomorrow.
