About the adventure
Step into a setting like no other in our world of Theras — Eastern Tyrwhin. A place where the magic of wizards is a precious commodity and the power of noble houses eclipses that of kings. This isn't just a campaign; it's a creator's canvas, where each player builds not just a character but an entire cultural tapestry. From designing your noble family's coat of arms to establishing the economic industries that sustain your city, every detail is yours to command. Celebrate your own crafted holidays, uphold your unique customs, and erect monuments that may stand the test of time. Influence stretches beyond the battlefield into the very culture and society of Eastern Tyrwhin, making you a true architect of empires. Inspired by the splendor of Italian city-states during the Renaissance, the industrious barons of America’s Industrial Revolution, the opulence of Gilded Age England, and the majesty of Russia's czars, your character will have the chance to leave an indelible mark on a world that's just waiting to be defined. Your journey will span two epic 15-episode seasons, elevating your noble from level 10 to 20 amidst a backdrop of intrigue, diplomacy, and historical grandeur. As you weave the threads of your family's story through the tapestry of a burgeoning civilization, every choice becomes a legacy. Together we will fill in every corner of our map, write our history, and plant ourselves firmly in the world. The noble houses you build, the alliances you forge, and the legends you craft will echo far beyond our borders, casting your influence across a world stage dominated by dragon kingdoms, immortal military oligarchs, and arcane technical wonders. This is more than a game; it’s a chance to reshape history. Join us, and propel Eastern Tyrwhin from the margins of the map to the heart of an epic, unfolding drama. What will be your legacy?

About me
Hey new friends! Long time player of tabletop role playing games (with a gap where my life was taken over by military service and corporate America), I ventured into online GM-ing during the global pandemic. Baking my own bread didn't work out, but this has! Hosting games has been such a wonderful adventure for me personally, allowing me to keep in close contact with friends and relatives, to nurture a creativity that my work and life had put on the back burner, and (quite unexpectedly) make new friends on each adventure. Before GM-ing, I led small groups of 4 to teams of 200+ in both the U.S. Army and Fortune 100 companies. The skillsets I learned in order to juggle competing priorities, create dynamic and adhesive groups, and foster individual growth are skills I bring to my gaming table. The majority of my games are hosted in a homebrewed world and follow DnD 5E rules. At my table you will easily find life-long players with decades of experience smiling and cheering on those who are taking their first steps into roleplaying games. I lean heavily into collaborative story-telling and love to create lore around my players, as their backgrounds flesh out and enrich the world. While overarching campaigns may take us on adventures of world shattering consequences, many adventures are simply a fun night out with friends. 🎥 An adventure mashing together plot hooks from every Nicholas Cage movie? Let's do it! 🧟♂️Want to turn your favorite bed time story in a survival horror game? I got you! ⚡Just need an excuse to speak in a funny voice and spam Eldritch Blast? There's room for you here, pal. And if you don't see a game that fits your schedule, feel free to shoot me a message and I'll help get a game started or matched for you. Got a group a friends ready to go and just need a GM? I'm available for private one-shots and campaigns for groups of 4+. Can't wait to roll dice with you soon!

Creating your character
Character sheets will be made available in Roll20 before Session Zero. Those comfortable creating a character entirely are encouraged to, but time will be set aside for each player to finish making or fine tune their character during the session zero.
Anticipated schedule: every other Wednesday at 5:30PM Pacfic beginning in August. 35 sessions in total. 3 "Session Zero" one-shots building up characters at levels 3, 5, and 8. Two season style story arcs will be ~15 sessions each. This game will focus on building dynasties in a kingdom filled with rival fiefdoms. It is played at high level and leans heavily on story-driven roleplay.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
While a webcam is not mandatory, it is always nice to see everyone's smiling faces. A microphone is required, and headphones are highly recommended. Sessions will be held over zoom, with the virtual table top provided on Roll20. In-game hand outs will be available detailing major locations, historical events, and regional customs and courtesies.
What Elle McIntire brings to the table
I will provide the maps, tokens, music, effects, lighting, and players will have access to my entire compendium on Roll20. Each party is granted their own channel in my Discord server for group discussion, anti-GM scheming, and session recaps via memes. I also record each session on zoom (for my own notes), and am happy to share upon request.

How Elle McIntire creates a safe table
A Session Zero will be held to finalize character creation and introduce new players to the world lore. Lines and veils will also be discussed in the session zero; however, any player is able to speak with me in private using my open door policy before games and between sessions. Discord is utilized for game group chats to debrief what was was enjoyable during the game, what what enjoyed, and what could be improved for player experience.
