About the adventure
"The air is moist. The moisture mixes with your sweat- the heat is relentless. The drone of insects gives you headaches, and the fever from the infected wounds has left you delirious. Your raft is damaged, and there are spirits in the trees." Fever swamp is a critically acclaimed sandbox hexcrawl adventure by Luke Gearing and Andrew Walter. Join me on one of my all time favorite adventures, and set out to find the wreckage of the Wasser Koenig, a warship stocked with weapons and loot and mysteriously lost to the fever swamp. This adventure Includes: - 15+ hex map locations. - 2+ full dungeon locations. - 1 base town, the rotten, cult-ridden town of Clink. - A mobile map feature: the Corpse Pile! - 6 isolated swamp clans to meet, with their own customs and peculiarities. - Over 20 monsters to find and get eaten by. - Sickness and infections! - 6 horrible swamp witches.

About me
Hello Everyone! I'm Daria (She/Her), a trans RPG writer and GM from the Midwest (USA). You can find my work featured in the first two issues of Knock, as well as the upcoming Beetle Knight TTRPG. I've been playing TTRPG's since I was 7 years old, and been running weekly games for my family and friends since 2015. I have experience with a long list of TTRPG's, but my recurring favorites are Troika!, Mork Borg, Mausritter, and Mothership. My games here will almost always be held on Roll20, and tend to skew more towards an open world sandbox style of play. Horror also tends to be a consistent prominent theme in the games I run, as Monster/ Creature reveals are one of my personal specialties.
