Legends of Avantris - Season 8
Season 8
Once Upon a Witchlight
Once Upon a Witchlight (OUAW) is a fun, madcap, whimsical canonical campaign (mostly homebrewed) DMed by Nikkie. It's streamed weekly on Wednesdays, via Twitch, since August 17, 2022. Players include Derek as Morning Frost, Mikey as Gricko, Richie as Kremy Lecroux, Mace as Gideon, and Andy as Torbek. This campaign is set in the Feywild (and the world of Avantris), starting with the characters going through the Witchlight Carnival, featured by the Wild beyond the Witchlight D&D module, but morphing into Nikkie's own homebrew. During Guy's Night, Derek was on vacation, resulting in the Avantris crew bringing in Andy to play as Torbek. The resulting popularity of Torbek led to establishing Torbek as a full-time player character, after Torbek went through the Avantris Character Process. To learn more about the Avantris Character Process, watch their Talk Show series Neon Nights.

The Count of Monte Cristo
Edmond Dantes, a nineteen-year-old sailor was falsely accused of treason and is imprisoned without trial in the Château d'If, a grim island fortress off Marseille. After many years of captivity he finally escapes and, under the identity of the Count of Monte Cristo, he plans to take revenge on those who have wrongly accused him.
Vienna Blood
Max Liebermann is a brilliant young English student of famed psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud. When Max comes into contact with Oskar Rheinhardt, a Detective Inspector struggling with a strange case, he agrees to help him investigate a series of unusual and disturbing murders. Max's extraordinary skills of perception and forensics, and his deep understanding of human behavior and deviance, lead them to solving some of Vienna's most mysterious and deadly cases.
Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
The Handmaid's Tale
The Handmaid's Tale is the story of life in the dystopia of Gilead, a totalitarian society in what was formerly the United States. Facing environmental disasters and a plunging birthrate, Gilead is ruled by a twisted fundamentalism in its militarized ‘return to traditional values'. As one of the few remaining fertile women, Offred is a Handmaid in the Commander's household, one of the caste of women forced into sexual servitude as a last desperate attempt to repopulate the world. In this terrifying society, Offred must navigate between Commanders, their cruel Wives, domestic Marthas, and her fellow Handmaids – where anyone could be a spy for Gilead – all with one goal: to survive and find the daughter that was taken from her.
