About the adventure

Somewhere, lost in the shrouded realms of death, lies a land of endless night where long-forgotten horrors are revealed to those who travel through the mist. There, in a crooked house lives a Crooked Man with a crooked grin. He raises crooked arms to a Crooked Tree at the edge of midnight and hears the whispers of the Old Ones. They speak of a beast that stalks the darkest woods and darkest hearts, a crown of horns upon its head. If you lose your way and feel a warm breath that chills you to the bone, run. Follow the songs of harvest time, and before long, you’ll find revelry in the dancing shadows of blazing wicker. No matter your story, these lonesome, misty rails will deliver you to where the hallowed cannot save you. Now is the time to brave the dark wood, beware the witching hour, and weave your own dreadful folktale underneath the Crooked Moon.

About me

I try to bring a welcoming environment for new players, but also a creative enough one so that players who have been playing for awhile get a little something different. I like to think out of the box and encourage my players to do the same! If you want to somersault off the back of a moving horse while firing an arrow I will do my best to make that happen. While your fate is in the hands of the dice I view your fun’s in mine and as such I try to make my table not only a fun time but a place people can escape from the craziness of the world.

Setup for characters will be standard 5e however, there are some special subclasses to this that I will pin to the discord chat if characters are interested.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

What Samhein brings to the table

I happily embrace the rule of cool as a DM. One of the things I love about DND is the creativity it allows for people and the amazing adventures that creates. I encourage this in my players and provide a safe environment for them to do that in. As a DM I do my best to also immerse my players in the world around them, this usually involves voices and graphic world building descriptions.
