Bivane hosts one of the finest Autumn's Fall festivals in the whole of the Ravinian North. This year's promised to be the best yet, until dinner ran off.
Description:
Welcome! This is a Thanksgiving-themed one shot. All characters will be designed ahead of time and assigned based on interest through Fantasy Grounds. Once up and running, there will be a little time for customization as needed. We will be using Google Meet to communicate. The goal: Find out what happened to all the turkeys in Bivane. Where did they go? How did they get free? What is that horrible sound emanating from the Greenwood? Possible triggers include: references to preparation/butchering of meat, descriptions of violence and gore. You will need the updated version of Fantasy Grounds Unity installed for this session to function. You need not have a paid subscription - the free demo version will let you into the game.
