$5 One-Shots - Play Tonight!

Far beyond the reach of the Empire lies Orner Bay: a stormy northern frontier of cold seas, ancient ruins, timber towns, merchant houses, and uneasy ambitions. Its cities are built atop the bones of forgotten civilizations, its coasts teem with smugglers and privateers, and its people are caught between independence, profit, and the looming promise of imperial annexation.

This is a series of connected one-shot adventures filled with nautical danger, frontier politics, buried mysteries, and hard-won freedom. Each session stands on its own, but together they reveal the tangled factions, haunted shorelines, and dangerous wilderness of a region that refuses to be conquered quietly.

What will you do as you uncover the...Mysteries of Orner Bay!

About the DM

Hey folks, you can call me Ryan. I've been DM'ing since the original 5e release in 2014, and professionally running games since 2020. I've run multiple year+-long campaigns to their ends, as well as dozens of one-shots and smaller adventures. This series of one-shots is set in my homebrew region, Orner Bay, where the frontier meets pulp adventure and mystery, and we explore a world that is rife with adventure and danger.

I take a lot of inspiration from sources like Fallout, The Witcher, Wheel of Time, Legend in the Mist, Princess Mononoke, Drakkenheim, Draw Steel, Deadwood, The Mummy, Conan, and others, both in the actual content of the world and in the style in which I run the game. I'm looking forward to seeing you experience this world with me.
