Raptor Peak: Echoes in the Wood

  • Indecisionist Productions Chicago, IL, 60641 United States (map)
This is a section of the painting, "A Man With His Truffle Hunting Pig" by Mary Evans. It features a man in a long cloak and yellow hat looking down to his black and white pig companion with a slight smile suggesting pride.

A game in the D&D 5e system, led by Ansel Burch.

It's Truffle season and the forest at the base of Raptor Peak has long been known for the succulent, musky delicacies rooted up from the bases of ancient oaks. Peaceful legumes aren't the only thing waiting in the forests, however. They're not even the only thing out there that feeds on death.

This game will be great if you like The Lord of the Rings (mostly the parts that didn't make it into the movies), Guillermo Del Toro movies, and Fungi.

Players should build level 11 characters ahead. Otherwise, please let me know (give me any ideas you have), and I will prepare a character for you.

  • You may use a standard array or roll your stats (roll 4, keep 3: 7 times, drop the lowest).

  • Your characters should come into the session with five magic items: one "common,” two "uncommon,” one "rare," and one "very rare.” A list is available here: https://www.dndbeyond.com/magic-items - Returning characters who have picked items from the plots of previous adventurers in Raptor Peak need not count them towards the magic items granted above.

  • You may send me character sheets ahead of the game if you wish.

This game is going to be good for new players.
