About the adventure

A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET : DREAM WARRIORS It's 1987 and something has been plaguing the dreams of the town of Springwood, Ohio. A Horror from the past that's been confronted before by the adults and a previous generation of teenagers. Unfortunately, the stories became urban legend and many of those kids who experienced the horror have moved onto college and safer streets or mysteriously were never heard from again. Many of the adults who did know of these horrors have retired or divorced themselves from reality, preferring to live in ignorance or willfully covering up those tragic events in hope of keeping things 'out of sight' and thus 'out of mind'. For a while, the population slept peacefully, not dreaming of what terrors may come. Unfortunately, for the citizens of this town, they do not know the more you supress the truth and bury the history, the stronger it returns, especially in the case of the serial killer and dream demon known as Freddy Kruger. But this time.. he has not returned alone. In the Dreamscape, Freddy has reached out into other realms of horror to ally himself with other 'legends': a wraithlike girl who moves through televisions and radios cursing her victims with few days before death comes, a blank faced butcher who moves in silence murdering anyone who gets in his way, a ghost faced serial killer who always seems to be in more than one place at a time, a hockey masked brute who knows nothing but barbaric and brutal slaying of both unsuspecting and willful teenagers, a desiccated slave with a hook hand and a ribcage of bees that swarm and sting all those who would call his name or venture into his mirrorworlds, a priest of hell with a grid of diamond nailed hammered into his head who calls forth chains, teaching lessons of sadomasochistic pain and pleasure, a horrific mime with a smile that just won't quit who never breaks character as he's breaking your bones.. and more! Embrace Your Dreams, Discover The Power Within, and Destroy The Dark!

About me

I'm an author, game designer, and creator of EMPYREAN: The Hyperfantasy RPG. I’ve been building worlds and running games since childhood, and I specialize in sprawling, player-driven adventures where your choices genuinely matter. Expect deep worldbuilding, memorable characters, dangerous choices, puzzles, mysteries, tactical combat, exploration, and stories that can go places you never expected. I run games that are chill and welcoming out-of-character, but intense and consequential once the adventure begins. I am a lifelong nerd/geek who has lived all over this huge country and traveled my whole life; I love gaming with, learning from, and meeting new people of all alignments, backgrounds, experience levels, and social personality types! Whether you’re brand new to TTRPGs or have decades of dice behind you, there’s a seat at my table. Bring your imagination, your curiosity, and your weirdest character ideas. Come roll some dice. Let’s make a story worth remembering.

Character creation

Creating your character

Begin at Level 3. We utilize a version of D&D 3.5 / Pathfinder 1e (Some Feats Allowed!) Base Classes from d20 Call of Cthulhu or d20 Modern Classes Only! No Homebrew. Craft: Medicine and Craft: Rootwork are available for healing trees and crafting. You will get Survivor Perks (!) as you level and Character Traits based on your character's playstyle and decisions.

Safety

How R.A. creates a safe table

We can always discuss something if it is particularly bad or triggering for you, but as this is an adult horror game there are almost no boundaries and players should expect all sorts of horrible things to occur.
