Gameplay details

At our table, your safety and comfort are of utmost importance. We prioritize creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for everyone involved. To ensure a positive and respectful gameplay experience, we have implemented various safety tools. Prior to the start of the campaign, I will provide a link to a Lines and Veils document. This document allows players to establish boundaries and communicate their preferences regarding certain themes or content that they may find uncomfortable. Lines represent topics that should not be crossed or included in the game, while Veils indicate subjects that can be present in the story but should be handled with care or off-screen. By collectively establishing these boundaries, we aim to create a space where everyone feels safe and respected. During our Session 0, we will discuss not only the game mechanics and character creation but also important topics such as expectations, tone, and the use of safety tools. This is an opportunity for each player to express their preferences, concerns, and any specific topics they would like to address. We will also review the Lines and Veils document to ensure everyone is on the same page regarding the content we will explore in the campaign.
