Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (WFRP) 4th Edition - Ubersreik - Original Campaign (Solo) - Play-by-Post (PbP)
About the adventure
Nestled in the craggy shadows of the Grey Mountains, the fortress-town of Ubersreik guards the Grey Lady Pass. The city of Ubersreik is on the brink of civil war. Emperor Karl Franz makes the controversial move to remove ruler Lord Jungfreud from power. You are assigned as a part of Lady Emmanuelle Nacht's retinue, the Imperial Herald, charged with maintaining stability between the nobles of the duchy as two factions emerge. How far will you go to see peace and save the city from internal conflict? Ubersreik is a unique solo original-made adventure that takes you on an espionage-themed adventure, putting your wits and discretion skills into test within the grimdark world of Warhammer Fantasy! Expect a grounded take on the Warhammer Fantasy world. You will be taken on the ground level of issues within the city of Ubersreik, enwrapped within its political intrigue, see the struggles of the common people, and fight in skirmishes that may take a mortal piece out of you. The first week of play will be free to get a taste of my GMing style and the story. This is a solo game (I.e One Player, One GM). Only one player need apply to get the game started.

About me
Hello, I'm Brandon! I have been playing TTRPGs for over 10 years and have seen an array of systems since my teenage years ever since picking up my first ever Dark Heresy book. I am interested in the universe of Warhammer, both 40k and fantasy, and love any systems that covers the occult and modern fantasy. My favorite systems are Warhammer Fantasy, Rogue Trader, Unknown Armies, Delta Green and World of Darkness. Ever since my adolescent years, TTRPGS has consumed itself as the peak of my nerdy interests. I got involved with a Warhammer 40k roleplaying club and played from Dark Heresy all the way to Only War. Subsequently, I got into its fantasy equivalent and clung to that pretty fast. When I'm not behind the GM screen, I like to watch movies with my partner on the couch and give my kitten plenty of scratches. I am on the autism spectrum and take no mercy on telling people of my hyper fixations on my interests in film, history, video games, and naturally: TTRPGS. I consider myself a cinephile and writer at heart. Whatever I put into my games, it's most likely inspired by the various media I have watched.

Character creation
Creating your character
We will create characters on Discord. I will share a form-fillable PDF for players to use. We will create characters using the standard methods in the book. As this is a solo game, you will be given 1000 bonus XP at chargen to even out the challenges.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
All you need to play is Discord. Knowledge of the rules is not required as I can walk you through how the game is played. Dice rolls will happen in-chat using Jodri, a roll-dice bot made for WFRP. Discord server here: https://discord.gg/CGNu62WNy - pop in and say hi.
What DMBrandon brings to the table
I will provide digital copies, digital maps, a music bot, dice bots, and fillable character sheets to use.

Safety
How DMBrandon creates a safe table
Players should expect something directly from a WFRP game. Blood, gore, intrigue, and mystery. All that fun grim darkness stuff. As a solo game, expect to control the complete wheel of the plot. I will be happy to help out players if they feel lost in direction during the game. Session 0 will go over player expectations and boundaries. I feature mature content, but I never include explicit sex scenes and will always fade to black. There is likely to be some gory scenes and we will discuss boundaries around a Session 0. We will use X, N and O cards to allow players to indicate when content is too triggering and we will roll back, fade to black, or change course to make sure everyone feels safe. This is done completely without judgement and includes the Open Door so anyone can take a break without fear of judgement. At the end of the game we will check in for some aftercare and a debrief and I will ask for some feedback.
