About the adventure
"To the North is an ocean without water. Mountains form islands in a sea of ash and cinder. Boats built of bone and sinew slice across the grey waves, hunting the strange fauna and one another..." This is a bleak open world sand-box campaign set in the Tephrotic Nightmares hexcrawl, with additional fishing mechanics provided by Fisk Borg.

About me
Hello Everyone! I'm Daria (She/Her), a trans RPG writer and GM from the Midwest (USA). You can find my work featured in the first two issues of Knock, as well as the upcoming Beetle Knight TTRPG. I've been playing TTRPG's since I was 7 years old, and been running weekly games for my family and friends since 2015. I have experience with a long list of TTRPG's, but my recurring favorites are Troika!, Mork Borg, Mausritter, and Mothership. My games here will almost always be held on Roll20, and tend to skew more towards an open world sandbox style of play. Horror also tends to be a consistent prominent theme in the games I run, as Monster/ Creature reveals are one of my personal specialties.

Creating your character
Character creation will be handled during session 0. You may either use the scvmbirther website to generate a random character in a single click, or you may choose a class and roll up a character traditionally.

Safety
How Daria creates a safe table
Combat is fast and brutal, player character death is not unlikely. Don't let that get you down though, there's always a cool new class to try out.
