Blades in the Dark | Campaign

About the adventure

This campaign will be directly shaped by the choices and decisions of the crew. We will go over all of this before session 0 and during but players will have the chance to pick, What crew of scoundrels they want to be. Which playbook each individual wants to play. The distinct in the city of Duskvol the crew will start in. Friends & Foes they will encounter is directly influenced by players. This campaign will mostly revolve around improvisation skills and using history/lore from the Blades in the Dark book.

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.

How to prepare

-My players only need a working microphone and webcam is optional but not required. -They will also need a discord account in order for communication to be smooth and easy for everyone. - I will help clear up rules whenever I can but it is up to my players to retain the information over a certain amount of sessions, this varies for player to player.

What I provide

-I intend to bring a fun, safe, and hopefully memorable experience to my players. I do my best to introduce interesting and thought provoking situations for players to overcome and roleplay moments that are unique to my games. -I will be using discord for in and out of session communication, all character leveling up and "shopping" will be done outside of session in order to save time, because I want my players to get the most out of the session.

Gameplay details

I would like to have clear and concise communication at session 0 and any sessions moving forward I'm more then willing to discuss with each of my players individually or as a group whichever they would prefer. I also like to use the X, N, O cards during sessions, players can either text the discord group chat or if they have a webcam raise their hand, I've seen some people get creative and hold up different colored cards which is also fine too.

How will character creation work

Before Session 0 we will go over character creation and how it's done according to the Blades in the Dark book. Session 0 will be for players to see if they like my DM style and if they have an issue with their character then we can go over that before the next session.
