PTU: The Social Ecology of Kanto/ LGBTQ+ & Newbie Friendly

How to prepare

We will be using Foundry and I would prefer that players have a microphone. Players do not need to have any experience with the system, or have read the rulebook. We are happy to explain things to you, as the game progresses. However, it will be very helpful for you to learn the rules so that you can make informed decisions about character progression. To that extent, I am more than happy to help you.

What I provide

-The books, -Maps, music, and tokens for Foundry, -My best attempt at NPC voices

Gameplay details

Lines and Veils will be discussed prior to play and X,N, and O cards can be handled publically or privately (through PM). My games are LGBTQ+ friendly and I do not tolerate racism or bullying. Players are not allowed to physically abuse their Pokemon. The player characters will be children/ teenagers, and I expect a certain degree of maturity when playing these characters. Sexual content is strictly forbidden and will result in dismissal. At the moment, our Lines and Veils are as follows: Lines: -Sexual Content -PC Abuse of Pokemon -Discussion of real world drug use Veil: -Pokemon Abuse by NPCs My DMs are always open with any concerns. After the session, we will discuss Stars and Wishes. I truly believe that I can always improve as a GM, and I am always receptive to feedback. The game will be organized through Discord and run through Roll20. Links to these will be provided after enrolling. We will be using the Core Rulebook 1.05, Pokedex 1.05+, and the February 2016 Playtest. We are currently discussing the Sept 2015 Playtest. This will all be provided on the Discord. The Warper and Task Master classes are banned and we are not playing with Base Stat Relations.

How will character creation work

There will be a free session 0 where we create characters and establish backstories. Any players that are joining later in the campaign will also get a free session 0 for character creation (scheduled between us at a time before the next session) in order to ensure that they understand the ruleset and their character. Characters starting now will be starting at 6th level, one Pokemon at level 16, one Pokemon at level 15, and two pokemon at level 14. At the moment, Pokemon may only be chosen if they are from the Kanto region. We will eventually introduce Pokemon up to the Sinnoh region. Throughout the campaign, I will reward players with Trainer experience points if they provide me with a 1/2 page backstory about their character.
