About the Adventure

“With Gede in their hearts and teeth in their mouths, these noble creatures keep us safe from the dangers in the dark.”   – Sister Imeria, Crocodile Caretaker in Training

The City of Threndall has an undead problem, and it constantly lurks beneath the surface in the complex maze of the city sewer system. Luckily, The Sisters of Gede have taken it upon themselves to manage the problem with a unique method: Giant Crocodiles. Collected as hatchlings, the nuns care for them until adulthood, and then release them into the sewers as guards. You discovered a sinister plot to poison the crocodiles, weakening the defenses against the undead in the process, by a team of cultists who worship Shune the Vile. Hanging in their ritual room was a tapestry emblazoned with the Hilbor Familiy crest. The nuns, grateful for your work, hope that you will continue to provide assistance in order to keep their dear crocodiles safe. It is time to delve deeper into the manor to find what ties still remain.

This short 2-3 session adventure will feature several returning characters of the 2 previous arcs, Delicious in Dungeon and The Crocodile Nuns of Gede. The adventure is great for beginners and experienced players who enjoy exploration and danger around every dark corner. This is the final arc of the story, which will begin on April 28th, running consecutive Monday evenings until complete.

What is ShadowDark?
An “Old School” RPG inspired dungeon delver that uses a lot of the same mechanics as D&D 5e, but simplified. It is super easy to learn (described by Dire Den on YouTube as “The Best Way to Learn D&D”) and focuses on exploration and finding treasure. Magic is rare but powerful, and the dark is incredibly dangerous, so don’t forget to bring enough torches!

What I Provide:
Upon sign up, please send me a message using the Contact button or through the RPG Club Discord so I can get you access to the Shadowdark Rules, Character Sheet, and answer any questions you might have. We can set up a time to go over character creation before the session so that way you can jump right into the action.

We will use Zoom for video and audio, the link is provided when you sign up.

What You Need: 
A webcam, a mic, and a way to roll dice (d4-d20).

I felt really lucky to have Jeremy introduce this game and ttrpgs to me with this game. He was patient and walked through character creation and a small heist that felt like it was equal parts action and intrigue. Highly recommended.

Jeremy’s knack for storytelling is truly superb. The lore, the dangers and especially the end of session cliffhangers keep us all coming back for more. He has a fantastic ability to immerse players into vivid surroundings and introduce them to interesting NPC’s along the way.

Jeremy thoughtfully encourages players to be active participants in character development and the world-building process. This equates to limitless imagination, super creative game sessions and a hell of a lot of fun for everyone!

My first introduction to D&D was with Jeremy after a friend won a session with him. We’ve done D&D, Blades in the Dark, he created his own Grim Dark campaign, Mork Borg, Shadow of the Demon Lord (modified), so many different systems. I’d say he’s quite the dabbler, but if Jeremy’s running it, it’s gonna be a good time.

He gives his players lots of creative freedom. He’s great with feedback so don’t be afraid to tell him what you may have liked or didn’t like in a session as he likes to experiment. He doesn’t pull punches soo if you roll poorly expect bad things to happen (but isn’t that fun of it?!)

Overall you can expect a good session and you’ll definitely have fun.

Jeremy has a gift for developing absolutley unique and fully immersive worlds. He creates an experience that allows players to easily lose themselves in thier characters. He guides players on journeys and adventures so thoroughly that players can’t help but become fully emotionaly invested in the world and their fellow adventures’ well being. A world class GM, easily on par with the Matt Mercers and Brennen Lee Mulligans of the TTRPG world.

I’ve been playing Jeremy’s games for years now and he never disappoints. His theater of the mind immersion is tip-top! Always runs his games very professionally with lots of fun involved. Very creative to bring in lots of new game elements and surprises. He has run DND 5e, but also runs many other platforms for me that are always great. I always need a lot of guidance and babysitting for character creation and game mechanics, and he is adept at providing plenty of information while not slowing down the group.

He’s the picasso of plot twists – the Shakespeare of shenanigans – balancing bad-assery and blending it with boons and banes.

I raise my glass to the miracle maker who makes my Tuesdays a little tastier!
