This is a private table were we prepare for our upcoming campaign by using game sysems we have never used before. This week we are trying out the game "Mall Kids"

After having finished their home, food and getting their cleric up to date, the party finally went together to get ready for the dwarfs quest. 

While on route, a snowstorm appeard, making it hard to travel. Luckily they had their trusty Goliath which remembered every part of where he traveled which got them through the storm! 

At the end, they finally found the slay of the dwarfs, however, it seemed like some Goblins got their before them... Are they going to be able to get it back? 

The goblins in the kingdom have always been unorganized, sloppy and predictable. Untill the Goblin king arrived. Coordinated attacks with unusual inventions have been used to gain ground in overtaking the kingdom.

You an adventurer are tasked by the City of Eclipse to end the attacks and the reign of the goblin king once and for all.

Moonbright is a nice little town where everything seems normal. But when you enter the tavern, something seems to be off. Why is the tavern emty at lunch time? What is going on here?

Time for you and your friends to find out.

This will mostly be a roleplaying session with minimum combat.

I am a beginner DM so please be gentle with me.

Prologue

The traveling extravaganza known as the Witchlight Carnival visits your world once every eight years. You have a dim memory of sneaking into the carnival as a child without paying for a ticket. That memory has grown foggy over time, though it still conjures a weird admixture of emotions—wonder and awe mixed with loss and regret. During this childhood visit, your character lost something. You tried to find it, but the carnival owners—a pair of elves named Mister Witch and Mister Light—were decidedly unhelpful.

“Silly little screeching cricket,” said Witch. “You forgot to buy a ticket.”

“The carnival goes round and round,” said Light. “The multiverse is our playground. Nothing’s free and nothing’s lost. Every visit has its cost.”

As time passed, your heart became less heavy, and you gave less and less thought to those childhood events. Now, for reasons you can’t explain, the longing to retrieve that which you have lost has resurfaced, as though an old spell has faded away, allowing you to feel the loss as sharply as if it happened yesterday.

The Witchlight Carnival has returned, and you find yourself standing near a ticket booth by the entrance at twilight, just as the carnival is about to open. There you meet others who look as troubled as you. Without knowing how or why, you sense that each of them has lost something as well. Perhaps fate has brought you together.

Joining the campaign

This is a hop-on hop-off campaign. Meaning that every time we play it can be a different party furthering the story. It's on a first come, first serve basis. Therefore I cannot promise anyone a seat on the table.

I will anounce after every session when the next table will be scheduled.

Any information of the campaign so far can be found here: https://wbtwl.burnacid.com/

Your backstory

You have been to the carnaval before as a young child. You have lost something the last time you visted. What that is, is randomly decided the first time you play (or by contacting me on discord). You have come to the carnaval again and end up into this adventure (depending on how far we are ofcourse)
