So I just finished a sesion zero, and my players unanimously agread on an old god eldrich kind of campaign.
This....is not going to be a serios campaign...i can tell.
I would like to seed uneasiness, and worry, even if the game is silly.
In my setting, the one or two old gods have found their way to this poket univers. Which a long forgoten deity had made for themselves away from the forgoten realms and the nine hells, and the elemental planes.
And the old gods are trying to break in, and do...i dont know...prey opon the minds of mortals?
And I thought it would be cool too add a false hydra that the old gods made at some point, to....maybe reap the flesh and minds of thoughs it can?
Any way may players are all level one and they are....
An male undead ranger-eventual swarm keeper(rats)
A femail dwarf palliden-hates rule, loves grave robing
A male tabaxi wizard-fire!
And a wolf-woman-blood hunter-i dunno yet
I would like some help with this, I do not know much eldrich horror information.
I am researching it, but I would like any tips and suggestions.
I would go for horror in your descriptions, though ultimately if the game is going to be a silly one and you are okay with that, you should totally embrace it and make up some new eldritch horrors' that do weird but funny things.
maybe there are a group of senile old wizards that constantly forget things and have to use programmed illusions to remind themselves, Maybe they all have silly names, maybe there is a cult that is super into LSD and thinks they are tripping but its actually a reach to the horrors. Get silly with it, and have fun!
I mean, the standard eldritch horrors are lovecraft with the serial names filed off (mind flayers, etc), but a supersized water hydra is actually a pretty good match on tentacled horror.
