About the adventure
Ankh-Morpork, Discworld’s greatest city. From the Post Office to the Patrician from the Unseen University to the Mended Drum, the city is full of all kinds. When strange murders start happening, that aren't Assassins' Guild approved, members of the watch, wizards, and even witches will need to investigate.

About me
Hey there adventurers, I'm Jenni! I love RPGs, especially D&D, and I want to be your GM! Every morning, after I do my usual wake-up routine, I grab a cup of coffee, sit down at my laptop, and start working on your games. I prepare the maps, upload player character sheets, get player tokens ready, and customize adventures. I work full time to make your gaming experience the best I can. Over the years, I have helped create 100s of characters at conventions, one on one, in my “Building Character” panel, and at home with friends. I’ve easily GM’d just as many games privately as well as at multiple conventions. In addition to being an admin for Rocky Mtn. RPG Guild, I've also had the great opportunity to work with published creators on the Dungeon Masters Guild. I've even skinned some 5e compatible games to Discworld, Disney, and Firefly themes. I'm keenly aware of the difficulties of inclusivity in the world of RPGs and work hard to make sure everyone feels welcome and wanted as a player. I like to have fun at the table and almost always abide by the "rule of cool". From kids and newbies to adults who've played for years, I've GM'd them all. While getting to introduce new players to the world of D&D is one of my favorite things, playing with people who know their way around the game is always a great time, too. So, whether you’re an experienced player or just starting, I promise you’ll have a good time. I hope to get you rolling initiative soon!

Safety
How Jenni the RPG_Maven creates a safe table
We'll be using D&D's three pillars of play: exploration, roleplaying, and combat. The care and well-being of everyone at the table comes before the game or story. For safety, I use the "X" card as well as lines and veils. Lines and veils are used to set boundaries on content in a game. Lines are hard limits on content, things that the GM or the players don’t want to engage in. Setting up a line means that content won’t show up in the game at all. Veils are soft limits, things that are ok “behind a curtain” or when they “cut-to-black.” Setting up a veil means that the content might be in the game but not spotlighted or described in great detail. Lines and veils can be adjusted as needed throughout the game. There is always an Open Door. Players can leave or take a break from the game for their own safety and well-being at any time without being judged. I have a zero-tolerance policy on racism, homophobia, ableism, body shaming, transphobia, and misogyny, including microaggressions in or out of game. Not sure what those are?
