About the adventure

🔥Game Description🔥 You always knew the Inquisitor is ruthless, but you never thought she would wage war against the world for her mission. Now she is conspiring with forces lost to time, and everyone will pay for the ambition of one person. You and a handful of others are the last bastion of hope. Will you take the banner, and save the world? A story where the tragedy of war clashes with the indomitable human spirit. Your level of experience does not matter in this RP-centric adventure.

Game style

Theater of the Mind

“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.

Gameplay details

đź”®Create your Dream Character: How does an alchemist with a demonic arm and a hedgehog god who talks to him sound? đź”® Exploration and Survival: Driven by the dogs of war, you will journey far and wide, encountering both awe-inspiring and terrifying places. đź”® Tactical Combat: At key moments, carry out military operations ranging from infantry maneuvers and spying, to cavalry charges and tactical strike missions. đź”® Tales of Morality: Even though not everyone is looking for this, you can find more here than simple heroism and epic conflicts. Oftentimes, the most memorable stories in war are not about the battles, but about the people, and how they are affected. đź”® Easy to Learn: As easy as watching a 30-minute video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70njl8wahRA&t=291s) đź”® Visual and Musical Themes: Ranging from carefully curated playlists to stunning battle maps when the circumstances demand it. đź”® Free Hand-Drawn Character Art: After 5 sessions together, you will receive your custom character art with an animated token in Foundry. After 20 sessions, the party will get an illustration of all their characters together. A token of gratitude.

How will character creation work

You can access the Player's Guide, which contains detailed lore about the setting, on my Discord channel. Please create your character before the first session by following the process I outlined in the designated channel. I'm available anytime to discuss or guide you through the character creation process. Make sure your backstory is no longer than two pages and is completed before the first session.
