A small frontier town rests at the edge of an ancient wood — a place
steeped in legends of majesty and infamy alike. Beyond its walls stretch
the wilds: haunted ruins, forgotten roads, and shadowed corners where
the old world still lingers. This is a grimdark, low-magic
setting, where light is precious and every spark of power carries a
price. Nothing comes easily. Yet for those brave enough to leave the
safety of town, the promise of old lore, glittering gold, and lasting
fame awaits — if you can survive what stirs in the dark. Expect a
hexcrawl style of exploration, blending roleplay, discovery, and combat
in equal measure. Your choices shape the world and leave lasting marks
upon it. I run games for the story — your characters are the
heart of it. Bring strong backgrounds and the courage to venture beyond
the firelight. Survival depends on trust and cooperation; there will be
no player-versus-player conflict here. You will stand together, explore
together, and face the unknown together. The world is vast and
hungry. The town is your haven. Beyond its borders, danger waits — but
so too do secrets, treasures, and the echoes of forgotten glory. About Barberbarian I’ve
been playing Dungeons & Dragons since the Basic Red Box, and I’ve
followed every edition throughout my life. From the very beginning, I
fell in love with the worlds I could build and explore alongside my
friends.
As a barber in a D&D-themed shop, I have the unique pleasure of
talking with gamers all day, surrounded by my oldest books on the walls
and Beholder posters on the ceiling. Storytelling has always been my
passion, and I love creating adventures collaboratively with others.
A few years ago, I began to drift away from D&D — until I discovered
Shadowdark. This game reignited my love for tabletop roleplaying,
giving my games the classic feel I’ve always cherished while opening new
possibilities for creativity and adventure. Now, I’m turning to online
gaming to expand my playtime, meet new players, and craft stories
together in worlds full of peril, mystery, and heroism. my profile link on Startgaming <a href="https://startplaying.games/gm/barberbarian" rel="nofollow">https://startplaying.games/gm/barberbarian</a> Link to the game sign up <a href="https://startplaying.games/adventure/cmhr2a5vd00b0l504nw1edjs9" rel="nofollow">https://startplaying.games/adventure/cmhr2a5vd00b0l504nw1edjs9</a> This game will require payment to the Game Master at a rate of $15 US per session paid through Startplaying.
