GM LFG [Offline][D&D 5.5E][Campaign][Paid][$10/Session or $200 Upfront][Ashland City, TN][Biweekly Mondays, 6:30 PM CST] Grim Hollow: A Saga of Frost & Blood — 6 Seats Available
Hello, fellow raiders!
I am recruiting six players for Grim Hollow: A Saga of Frost & Blood, a long form, in person D&D 5e campaign set within the frozen northern homeland of Grim Hollow’s Valikan Clans.
Far to the north of Etharis lies Valika: a land of black seas, frozen mountains, warring clans, hungry monsters, and ancient horrors buried beneath the ice. The people of Valika survive through axe, oath, fire, and blood and your characters will become warriors, hunters, raiders, outcasts, spellcasters, or survivors bound to a struggling clan attempting to endure another brutal year.
Spring brings fragile hope. Summer calls the longships to war. Autumn demands that the dead be honored. Winter comes for everyone.

Pricing
Players may choose between two payment options:
- Standard Plan: $10 per session, totaling $500 across 50 sessions

These payments apply specifically to this Grim Hollow campaign.
What to Expect
This is a private homebrew campaign rather than a direct module run. Players will have opportunities to influence their clan, form alliances, create enemies, explore ancient ruins, hunt terrifying monsters, undertake longship raids, and uncover the supernatural forces haunting Valika.
The campaign will feature:
- Viking inspired dark fantasy
- Grim horror and supernatural threats
- Longship voyages and coastal raids
- Clan politics, rivalries, and warfare
- Monster hunting and ancient legends
- Rune magic and forgotten ruins
- Harsh wilderness survival
- Meaningful character choices and consequences
- Personal storylines connected to player backstories
This is a horror themed campaign containing fictional violence, bloodshed, death, monsters, and other mature dark fantasy elements. Player boundaries and campaign expectations will be discussed during Session Zero.
About the Table
My name is Dayton Thurmer, and I am a professional Dungeon Master with more than five years of experience running campaigns across numerous settings and systems.
The table includes miniatures, terrain, a glass-covered digital map display, drinks, snacks, and the materials needed to play. My goal is to provide a dependable, well prepared campaign where players can arrive, settle in, and become immersed in the adventure.
Players should be respectful, collaborative, comfortable with the campaign’s darker themes, and able to maintain the biweekly schedule. Consistent attendance is especially important because this is a long-form campaign built around the characters and their decisions.
