As a queer woman I don't always feel welcome, that's never been the case at this table. Plus I've always had my ideas supported, if you want to make something cool happen with your character, they'll find a way for it to work so long as it doesn't ruin the game for anyone else. Just always been a great table!

Chill and fun. Cares more about player involvement than making others take part in their story. I always appreciate that.

Inclusive and safe above all. Great for beginners and more experienced players looking for a game that emphasizes a good time. Open to unusual race and class combinations.
