About me
Hello lovely people, my name is Rowan (none/they); professional writer, educator, and GM with over a dozen years of experience across a variety of systems and genres. Fantasy, horror, and superheroes are my bread and butter, but I've been know to dip my toes in the scifi and steam/eco/cyber/diesel punk pools here and there. Safety tools are mandatory for all games, and I will not tolerate those who do not make space for marginalized peoples. With that said, I can't wait to see you at my table!

Creating your character
Playbooks are on a fist come, fist serve basis. We will make characters together during session 0. You may use any official playbook for Monster of the Week, all of which i will provide in PDF format.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Headphones and mic required, webcam encouraged but not mandatory. When you join the discord you should familiarize yourself with the lore peovided, to better assist in making a character.
What Rowan brings to the table
We will have a personal discord to use for communication, as well as accessing lore and game resources. We will use Roll20 for character sheets, though I encourage physical dice rolling. We will use Google Meets for sessions, since it has a relatively good captioning system.

How Rowan creates a safe table
Upon joining, you will fill out a player form with lines and veils. I will collate the list, go over it during session 0, and post it to discord. Additionally, I will explain X cards and Open Door Policy during session 0, and offer breaks during sessions.
