About the adventure

There's something wrong with the children of Broadview Heights, Ohio. They seem to be extremely different people than they were just a few days ago. Kids that were model students and kind as can be are now just shells of human beings. They seem to be empty inside. As if what was once there no longer is. One of the residents swears he saw one of the children at night stalking the neighborhood in a very menacing way. Almost blatant, like they didn't care if they were seen. And most peculiar thing is their eyes were glowing a deep burnt orange. What has happened to the children of Broadview Heights? Will they ever return to normal? And if so can they do it without help? Without you these children may never again have a normal life. And what's worse the citizens of Broadview may not live to see the light of day as a result. Are you up to the task?

How to prepare

You are not required to be on camera although I highly recommend it because seeing your teammates helps with the connection through gameplay. A mic will be required as we are using audio. A standard rule I have for all my tables is if you choose to roll physical Dice and you lie about it you are only cheating yourself out of a fun experience. But you are also cheating the other players who are trying to play legitimately. Just keep that in mind. Also for this game I have not decided preemptively if you'll know each other. we will decide as a if you would like to be connected to each other's characters or not. This game has a built-in feature of everyone being connected to everybody else... But that's not necessary and so we will decide what everyone wants to do at that time.

What I provide

This game will be entirely theater of the mind. We made not even need anything such as roll 20. For this simply jumping onto a discord voice chat will be sufficient enough. However since it's set in modern Day USA, maps will be easily provided via Google lol

Gameplay details

All content and trigger discussions will be during session zero. We will be able to go through and find what everyone is comfortable with. I will never place any explicit content that I know will upset someone in my games.
