About the adventure

This is a 5e game using the free fan-made book Technomancer's Textbook. Again, it is completely free and you can get it here https://anyflip.com/rzjth/fedl/basic. Cyberpunk! Dungeons and Dragons! Witness civilization buckling under its own weight of concrete, drugs and neon. Take part in the story of Castelo (Castle), the private megacity in Brazil of the magical future! The promise of a generation, now broken by economic recession, crime, and the endless greed of the powerful. The Castle is a cauldron of corporations, crime syndicates, magical brotherhoods, warrior orders and, of course, threats from man and monster alike. Pollution and poverty have created sprawling slums where new societal bonds emerge. Adventurers represent people fighting to make the most of this hard existence, or defend their homes, or promote a revolution, or just strike it big and get rich! We are currently pursuing weekly campaign centered around the party's community and the external forces threatening to rip it into pieces. I like to center on character relationships and development, emerging crises, tough choices, and tougher consequences. I play gritty but I avoid being deadly, graphic, or unpleasant. Respect and courtesy at all times.

Recruiting notes

Hello there! We're doing a weekly campaign (subject to change if we need to). I've made pregens of all character classes on their Techomancer book class paths where applicable. Please choose one and edit it if you want to, just let me know which you want. This game will be gritty but depictions of gore, sex, and graphic stuff in general will be skimmed over and NOT explored.

How to prepare

Please read the Technomancer's Textbook. You don't need to read everything: up to page 128 and you can feel free to skip the 'Vehicles' chapter for now, and 'Technology' if you don't plan to play a hacker. That leaves us with a total of 108 pages. Since we are playing on roll20 and Discord, I will give invites for both my game and server, so please create a free account on each.

What I provide

I'll provide maps, some AI art, macros, tokens, and music.

Gameplay details

I'll seek to do one third combat, one third exploration, and one third social interaction. Expect players to create some NPCs and me to muddle things up. "Core" 5e books will be used, plus the Technomancer Textbook. We have some house rules around Rests and combat (natural 1 when shooting into a melee may hit instead someone else). I'll make rulings when there is conflict over a rule, and go back to it later. I will also periodically query the players about their satisfaction with the campaign, and any changes they might desire within reason.

How will character creation work

I will create a few pregens, but we will go over chargen in a special session zero, where you can change what I made or make something new. We will begin at level two.
