About the adventure
Privateers & Pirates is a swashbuckling high-seas campaign where you begin as a green sailor, newly recruited to a privateering crew. Lured by the promise of gold, glory, and the open sea, you leave your old life behind and step aboard your new fate. Armed with the King’s seal, you hold legal authority to raid enemy vessels. Merchant ships, naval frigates, and pirate galleons alike are fair game. The sea is lawless, dangerous, and full of opportunity. Every ship on the horizon could bring fortune—or spell your doom. Will you rise through the ranks to become a feared privateer captain? Or will the tides drag you to a watery grave? The ocean awaits, and it's ripe for plunder!

About me
Hey, I'm A(d)a(m)! Ever since my first TTRPG session, I’ve been hooked. I love the stories we create together, the legends that unfold, and the memories that stick long after the dice stop rolling. I strive for a table built on camaraderie, clear communication, and collaboration. What to expect: - I mainly run D&D 5e. - I use safety tools in all my games to help ensure a respectful, comfortable experience. - My table is open and welcoming to everyone, whether you’re a veteran adventurer or just starting out. I hope to see you at the table soon!

Creating your character
- At the start of the Campaign, Players start at Level 1, for 1 session. - New Players will join at the current Party Level. - Characters will be made out-of-session, with GM discussion.
The Level 9 party now runs a crew, with a storm sorcerer as captain, 2 homebrew classes(martial and spellcaster), and an artificer. They fly an airship and have 3 normal ships in their fleet.

How RPGAdam creates a safe table
I run a friendly, welcoming table where everyone can relax and enjoy the game. Before our first session, I'll go over a few safety tools to help make sure the space feels fun and comfortable for everyone.
