SUMMARY: Since Oct. 2021, I have had the good fortune of participating in one of Miranda Elkin's Nightwick Abbey megadungeon campaigns. Below is a catalog of all the sessions that have been run using Old-School Essentials (BX D&D) with some homebrew rules by Miranda. It has been a fantastic adventure in a hell-haunted abbey cursed by its founders' hubris and I think really shows off old-school D&D at its dungeon-crawling best. If this sounds fun, then come brave the depths!

ReplyDeleteThanks for reading! A lot of the homebrew rules are found here at that Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/InPlacesDeep/posts
DeleteThe biggest being that Nightwick has unique takes on the standard BX classes.
The sessions usually last about 3-4 hours at a time and despite being a big group, we've gotten more efficient
