𝓝ot every monster is a creature of flesh of blood. Here is an entity whose skeleton is made of wood and stone. Its eyes are glass but they are no less seeing. Its breath is the wind, but it is no less alive. You have heard of ways to quiet the restless spirits of the dead, but how do you lay a house to rest?
Touchstones: Penny Dreadful (2014), Darkest Dungeon (2015), The Empty House (1915), The Premature Burial (1844). Themes and content warnings: Tragedy, betrayal, ghosts, supernatural experiences. Content might include analogues of real world spiritualism and religious practises, live burial, implied torture (with no active depictions), creepy crawlies.
Hello friends, family, and misc! Welcome to the The House of Lament, a haunted house crawl for D&D 5e (2024), levels 2-3. This is my own adaptation of the 5e adventure of the same name, using elements of its original 2e printing and several tweaks I made while testing Flee, Mortals! to give it some extra ✨peril✨. I've run it once before and would love to take it for another spin.
This will be a 4 session affair, played weekly on Monday evenings at 7pm CET and starting on December 8. We will play online using Roll20 as a VTT and discord for voice + everything else. Each session will require you to be available for about 4 hours, have a good microphone, and a quiet environment. Note that the game will take us through the holiday season! I don't celebrate, so I am primarily looking for others who would otherwise be in a social black void during December.
A little about me: I'm Anna, 36, and we may have crossed paths around the forums or on a dark crossroads before. I've been playing and running many different TTRPG systems for about 10 years. I think D&D works super well as an action dungeon crawler with lots of challenges to solve, butts to kick, and class resources to manage, and those are aspects I like to emphasize. I stick closely to the rules, say "no" often, stay quiet often and let players take the lead. I expect players to engage with curiosity, in good faith, and with awareness of what makes the best experience for the group, that is, prioritising the people at the table ahead of the fiction.
More information and application form are here. Please do not message me directly, and no need to post a reply to this thread! Just the application form will do. I'll be in touch with potential players by November 25 and we may do a little try-out session, or just have a chat. Assume the worst if you don't hear back.
Thanks for the interest so far! I'll start going over applications later this week and folks are welcome to apply for as long as the form above is open!
