About the adventure
-BEGINNERS WELCOME 📺 https://youtu.be/dyZK8JkKWqI (Savage Worlds Rifts Ad) The Dark Frontier ain’t for the faint of heart. Out here, it’s more than just outlaws and lawmen— ley lines blaze across scorched plains, raiders ride with plasma rifles, and ancient things stir beneath the dust. The settlements are few, the dangers are plenty, and if you wanna make it, you’ll need grit, guts, and a little luck on your side. 🪝HOOK: Copper Creek sits on the edge of it all, barely holding together under the weight of secrets, fear, and something foul rising in the hills. The Widowmaker Mine’s gone silent. Folks whisper about a rider in black who left nothing but ruin behind. The town’s law is worn thin, and what passes for peace won’t hold much longer. This is a gritty, post-apocalyptic Western tale for Savage Rifts, where shootouts meet sorcery, and the ghosts of the past don’t always stay dead. Whether you’re packing spellfire, steel, or cybernetics, Copper Creek might just be your last stop… or your only chance to make a stand. 🎲🎲SWADE makes it Fast! Furious! and Fun!🎲🎲 Savage Worlds Adventure Edition is a streamlined tabletop role-playing game system featuring fast-paced gameplay, narrative-driven mechanics, and a customizable approach to storytelling.

About me
"Grab a hot drink, a seat around the fire, and listen to my cowboy song." "Comfortable? Good! Now, before we get started, I want you all to know that I tell my tales for your enjoyment and pleasure... so please respect each other and don't enter this area if you desire to cause another harm. If someone's pain is your objective or entertains you... You won't make it past the opening credits of our story." [About me: Having been in (often teaching) the Arts for over 25 years, I really enjoy teaching, and I understand how and love to foster creativity in players!] --Experienced GM/DM/ST for roughly 35 years. I have professionally run hundreds of games over multiple systems. In that time, I have learned that it is the players' story and I am just here to facilitate that experience and make it run smoothly and be as entertaining as possible. I see game rules as a way to keep on track and involved...I never let them get in the way of creativity or the group's enjoyment! I came to StartPlaying looking to run some serious and/or seriously fun sessions. My story telling style is light and flows easy. I do not let the mechanics detract from the experience, but use them to enhance the story you want to be told! Teaching new systems to new players is an experience I enjoy. We were all new players, or new to a system at one time...and without kind and proper guidance we probably wouldn't still be involved in this amazing pastime! Roll well and see ya around!

How DuChampion (JJ) creates a safe table
This will be an open door game, if you need to take a break, for any reason, please do so!! All I ask, is if you can, please mute your mic so I know you are out. -Any use of "out of character" Racism, Sexism, or Discrimination or Personal Attacks of any kind will get you banned. -Players who do these things repeatedly "in character" are discouraged/warned/and subject to being (quickly) kicked or banned. -If you do not follow the “Fade to Black” rule you will be kicked or banned. **Fade to Black Rule** During the game, if there is ever an event, situation, or anything that as a player makes you feel Please say “Fade to Black” (same as N card although sometimes I don't see the chat right away)and that scene will end. I will not ask, I will not judge, I will take control and respect this choice. No story is worth paining someone!
