PLEASE NOTE that any games marked (continuing) are likely to have most if not all of their spaces filled already
Gate of Dreams (Continuing)
System: DnD 5e
GM: Marina Wallace
Description: High fantasy, political drama – involving intrigue, combat and magic. Set in a Kingdom beset by enemies on all sides, it will be up to the players to choose what path lies ahead for the kingdom. Themes of war, betrayal and conflict, with players having positions of power in court.
Spaces: 6
Age Rating: 12
Content Advisories: Fantasy Violence, War
Plunder of Stable Alba (Continuing)
System: Ars Magica 5e
GM: Angus Balkham
Description: In early 13th century Scotland, as King William prepares his young son for the throne, a threat arises in the north to challenge his rule. This would not normally concern members of the Order of Hermes, a Europe-wide collection of wizards sworn to non-intervention in mundane politics, but this event carries ancient echoes of a dark secret in the Order’s history… In this game, players will play various members of a group of magic-users and their community in a world that works as people of the Middle Ages imagined it. Tremendously powerful magic is available with players designing their own spells, but they might contend with angels, demons and faeries as much as with politics and the church. (This campaign is focused on interaction with other humans, but is open to player ideas.)
Spaces: 5
Age Rating: 12
Content Advisories: Likely immediate threat and light fantasy violence; possibly other risks, which will be discussed before play
Rime of the Frostmaiden (Continuing)
System: DnD 5e
GM: Jamie Wheeler
Description: North of the Spine of the World and west of the towering Reghed Glacier is a frigid expanse few dare to explore, let alone inhabit. For two long years, the god of winter’s wrath has kept the sun from rising in Icewind Dale. Suspicion and desperation eat away at settlements plunged into perpetual darkness. And still greater threats may loom on the horizon. Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden is a tale of dark terror that revisits the forlorn, flickering candlelight of Ten-Towns and the many bone-chilling locations that surround it.
Spaces: 5
Age Rating: 15
Content Advisories: Horror, Dark fantasy, Fantasy violence, Death by freezing, TBH not finished reading the campaign, so not sure
Dream On!
System: Tales From the Loop
GM: Mint Zekoll
Description: You are a group of kids living in the idyllic (boring) US town of Petaluma, Iowa in the 80’s. Nothing really ever happens in this rural town, until one day, a large number 4 appears on the school gymnasium wall. The next day, it’s gone, and in its place, a 3 appears. Assuming it to be a kid’s prank graffiti, the school calls an assembly. But why do some kids seem so tired and jumpy? Why is the resident bully, Peter, not present? What happens at the end of the countdown? Similar vibes to Stranger Things and Dark (both Netflix shows), mystery/horror/sci-fi. “The 80’s that never was” filled with strange tech, top-secret government organisations, robots, and experimental research programs.
Spaces: 4
Age Rating: 15
Content Advisories: Nightmares, reality manipulation, hallucinations, homophobia. Strong language and swearing likely, but all of these subject to change as lines and veils are set during session 0!
