I actually had been intending to do a similar sort of cosmic horror spark with the Cthulhu CoinSides involving the cipher part and the glow in the dark aspect, but your Spark seems much more thought out and better integrated with the functions of the coin as a whole! I also love the selection of the headings, really adds to the tone and atmosphere of the Spark.

I feel like the ritual goal and events around Yvain's death perhaps should be laid out at the beginning of the Spark for the benefit of the DM/GM, as it can potentially get a bit confusing as to the order of events and what is meant to happen when and how precisely the summoning and offering is supposed to work...or just detail that these are all elements the DM/GM can choose to include or not. I do love the open ended aspect of it!

I like the different methods used for the coin (the map part is my favorite!) and the way the story is told via the characters. The different scenes certainly give enough of a vibe of them to be able to act them out throughout the story however it plays out. I also freaking love the title, I'm always so bad with titles and yours fits perfectly 🤣

This is brilliant! Well written and interesting throughout. Love the cosmic horror angle :)

This is a really cool concept, and the way that you leveraged the features of the actual Coinside to play a role in the scenario is really effective. It has a very creepy feel, and at the same time a lot of different possibilities to explore and different ways for the PCs to respond to what is happening. Nice!

Awesome Adventure Spark. Thank you for entering it. FYI: My PDF messed up the titles when I printed them, but I can see them fine on the screen. Not sure what happened.
