About the adventure
⛓️ Kink community dynamics! 🧙 Choose whose life to make better (or, possibly, worse)! 💋 Heartful fetish relationships! 💥 Angels & demons & old gods & sentient ideas, oh my! 🖤 Explore the meaning kinksters attach to equipment & furniture! 💫 Juggle the values & importance of big concepts in small stories! Somehow, you have come into possession of a storage unit once owned by the city's beloved central dungeon, which was shut down years ago. You must now decide how to distribute the equipment and furniture contained therein throughout the local community, according to your values, whims, and the Word you serve. Will a lilu, child of the demon princess of Freedom, give the St. Andrew's Cross to the man who realized that she was free to do and enjoy whatever he wanted while strapped to it? Or will an angel of the Wind, devoted to the values of change, give it to the woman who decided to leave her job to become a dominatrix while topping someone on the St. Andrew's Cross for the first time? Perhaps Cupid will give it to the triad who fell in love while two of them were co-topping the third on the St. Andrew's Cross? And what does St. Andrew think of all this, anyway? This campaign centers the unique stories that develop from kinky lifeways, relationships, and communities. GENRE: Good-deed-of-the-week shows, like Touched By An Angel, God Friended Me, or Kevin (Probably) Saves the World (or, hell, even The Good Witch or Quantum Leap) with a kinky and possibly erotic edge. Access pricing is always available in my games if marginalization means you need to pay less, and tips are always gratefully accepted if you want to give more. Although the possibility exists for this game to engage with erotic scenes and themes with appropriate safety/consent tools (and I am interested in this kind of storytelling), this is not an ERP. If you’re looking for fapping opportunities or material, don’t waste your money on me; find a game offering that.

About me
Salue! ("Hello" in Latin) My name is Gandalfina Face-and-Heart* and I use three different sets of pronouns: e / em / eir / eirs / emself OR fey / fem / fear / fierce / femself OR be / bim / bos / bos / bimself Before I start introducing myself, I wanna say two things. First, I am in the San Francisco Bay Area; if all of my players are from that area (and safety allows), I am MORE than happy to meet in-person, rather than running online. Secondly and perhaps more importantly, if your ability to hire me is adversely affected by being a member of a marginalized group, please contact me; I will work something out with you that works with your financial ability. That being said, on to the introduction... I am, quite literally, alive because of role-playing games. As a young, genderqueer child I often wondered if my own existence was imaginary. Even in a progressive state like California, there wasn’t a word for my feelings - not until Riki Anne Wilchins coined the term genderqueer - before I had already entered puberty. The many worlds of TTRPGs, and the ways in which they were actively created by the players at the table, were among the first spaces in which I could exist, joyously free from the bonds of cisgender heteronormativity. For this reason and many others ~ including the breakdown of mass media's objectifying relationship to stories by emphasizing the shared subjectivity of all participants in a story ~ I am quite the champion of interactive fiction. I've been on a number of TTRPG streams and podcasts at this point, and plan to be on as many as I can! You can find the list of every show I've been on by looking at my Curriculum Vitae (there's a link to it on my Linktree at https://linktr.ee/queermythopoeia ). I also (sadly inconsistently) maintain a blog where I present new RPG material, session write-ups, and analyses of RPG sourcebooks for all manner of games (also find-able by means of my Linktree). * I use 18 different names interchangeably ~ choose a few favorites and change it up as often as you can!

View Profile →Character creation
Creating your character
Character creation will happen during Session Zero, or afterwards in a free one-to-one session if the Bravery/Consent/Safety/Boundaries discussion consumes Session Zero. It's a fairly quick process, even with all of the options turned on. All types of character are allowed: angels, demons, old gods/spirits, escaped dream fragments, sentient ideas, and humans of all types (including soldiers in the War Between Heaven and Hell, the undead, ghosts, and sorcerers). All Superiors and choirs/bands can be chosen. Does that still not have an option you would want? Well, fan content is very welcome, although I still have to approve it on an individual basis. Each character type will be created in the books, as RAW. Demons will be created with 7 Forces, rather than 9.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Please have the technology necessary to connect to Discord, including a microphone. Though I would love to see your face while you play and thus encourage you to have your webcam on, I do not require it. Other than a Discord account (and mebbe downloading the Discord client/app), there are no programs or websites to which you need access. Knowledge of the rules and a rough idea of a character before Session Zero is wonderful and helpful, but not at all necessary.
What Emily Loretta Flummox (et alia) brings to the table
I bring an active Discord channel to discuss the game between sessions, on my Discord server where I run the game. Much of my efforts as one of the storytellers in the campaign is to find the mental/emotional weaknesses of the characters and then push on them. I also bring an exhaustive knowledge of and deep thought about the cosmological considerations of the setting and campaign; every once in a while, a session involves answering detailed questions about that from the players and helping them understand the larger implications of campaign events. I try hard to keep my eyes on considerations of sociocultural power dynamics in the game, as well as player inclusivity, and am very open to hearing when I can improve!
Platforms used
Safety
How Emily Loretta Flummox (et alia) creates a safe table
Players are given to a communally created, living Lines/Veils/Highlights documents during Session 0, which will be held with all players when they join. N/O/X cards are primarily communicated by means of Discord's VC text chat, though spoken or video versions will be very much respected. Every session opens with a 15-minute, detailed reminder of the group's Bravery, Consent, Safety, and Boundaries Practices/Tools to ensure that everyone is on the same page and to ensure that these practices/tools are not forgotten. Also, to repeat: Although the possibility exists for this game to engage with erotic scenes and themes with appropriate safety/consent tools (and has done so, at times), this is not an ERP. If you’re looking for fapping opportunities or material, don’t waste your money on me; find a game offering that.
