About the adventure
~Run by an official MCDM Designer~ ⛵ Captain the Stars 🌌 Discover the Cosmos ⚔️ Defy the Imperium 🌍 Save Your Home? "I'm offering you a chance to become more than you'd ever imagine, to make a real difference, to save lives; now take the damn gun." My twist on the Light of Xaryxis adventure from Spelljammer: Adventures In Space. I use my experience designing for 5e professionally to customize the adventure, pulling on materials such as MCDM's Flee, Mortals!, and mixing in my own unique material to give you a Spelljammer like none other! Reshape the face of Wildspace—will you bring the Astral Imperium to its knees? Or join it for the power it offers? This is a high stakes, story first—but action close behind—campaign run by an expert GM with over a decade's experience helping players embody their own legends. 🔭 Discover Your Story

About me
DND Beyond published Writer/Designer (check out MCDM's Flee, Mortals! and Where Evil Lives), bachelor's in Communication Studies with a focus on small group communication from the University of Washington, and over a decade running tabletop RPGs. I'm a narrative-heavy GM with deep rules knowledge, and a healthy understanding of when to bend them! My favorite things are to stir what my players give me into the main story of the campaign, and those wild moments where the whole table smiles wide. I've a strong knowledgebase of the rules, but I'm also flexible and adaptable, able to roll with any punch you throw at me—there's no rails where we're going! With over a decade of experience running TTRPGs, I've game mastered for live actual play shows for years now. I've played heavy tactical, to soap opera, to comedic romps, to deep character exploration. Every game of every style deserves a fun narrative through line to underscore the game. My favorite games to run are D&D 5e, Fabula Ultima, Blades in the Dark, and Quest, but I'm also a rules-text devourer. I love to learn new systems and introduce them to my groups. As a freelance writer and rules editor who focuses on player-facing options and monster design, I can make your wild homebrew character concept a reality! Stemming from my communication degree, safety is the foundation of every one of my games. I highly prioritize open lines of communication and want us all to have a great time playing a game that's fun for everyone at the table.

Creating your character
Our Session 0 will have relaxed time for everyone to ask questions, chat about PC-to-PC and PC-to-World bonds, and button up characters. We'll jump into the action by Session 1!
Saturday Evenings (6:00 PM Pacific Time) New campaign! First handful of Session, get in on the ground floor! You ready to sail the stars?
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Discord and mic required, with camera sharply heightening the experience. I'm running this game with a cloud-hosted Foundry Virtual Tabletop, and a Zoom call (no downloads). I also content share the DND Beyond Legendary Bundle, so no need to buy sourcebooks. IF YOU'RE NEW(ER) TO D&D, ~don't sweat it~, I'd love to help ya out, and I'll have pre-made characters on hand.
What Nat! brings to the table
A Foundry VTT world ready to augment this story, a paid Zoom account, a DND Beyond content sharing-enabled campaign, a game designer's perspective, thousands of hours of gamemastering experience, and the intention to have a lot of fun together!
