Even for a short trip to investigate the undead that ventured into their village, road is full of risks — for example, did you know a person could have the moldy status, because that's apparently a thing (and not a good one). But we're definitely not going to spiral out of control and worry about every fairy-tale-turned-reality that might jump out of the shadows and ambush us.</p><p><br></p><p>Definitely not.</p><p><br></p><p>To see how this party of neophytes is faring, join GM Phil Ulrich along with our crew of would-be adventurers:</p><ul><li>Chris as Dunny, the local blacksmith, whose father's old sword may be more than it seems. He's been poisoned by the undead, and has to find a cure.</li><li>Nick as Frye, a hardworking cook at the local tavern, who dreams of becoming a great chef (but mostly finds himself working for ruthless overseers in the kitchen).</li><li>Liz as Lyssa, who works at the ferry running people and cargo across the river, but thinks there has to be more to life than this.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>This is the second of a three-game series of&nbsp;<em>Legend in the Mist</em>, which is designed for fantasy storytelling that scales from our small town heroes to folk heroes of legend. It's a different flavor of fantasy TTRPG, with a vibe that feels quite like&nbsp;<em>The Hobbit</em>, where ordinary folk may find themselves in extraordinary adventures. It has a narrative-centric focus and flexible character creation so you can make the hero you want and play them the way you want.
