Dream Eaters is an Escape Room-styled one-shot that can be played by anyone at any moment. Due to its ethereal nature, you can play it as a standalone one-shot, or plug it into any running adventure without any prejudice to the ongoing story.
This short adventure orbits the Dream Eaters Collective – diminutive rogues, with a “particular” sense of humor, this small collective of sprites was exiled from the Summer Court precisely for putting at risk the other creatures of the Feywild, dedicating their time to torment adventurers. They now populate a microplane adrift between the Feywild and Shadowfell, and take advantage of the numerous portals connecting the fey realm to the Material Plane to steal the souls of adventurers during their sleep, to watch them fight for their own lives.
Dream Eaters is a collection of small puzzles and one battle that can be played in as quick as 2 hours.
