About the adventure
The cannon and muskets are loaded. The crew waits with weapons drawn. The captain hoists the Jolly Roger and waits for the prey ship to strike their colors, or turn and fight. Either way, you're getting your cut of the booty! All are welcome! Never played a TTRPG before? Come aboard, me hearty, we'll show you the ropes. Old hand at the dice? You'll find adventures and loot galore here. I've created a whole new world for you to explore, full of trade ships waiting to be raided, islands to explore, and villages to conquer! Let's be pirates! We'll use the D&D 5e system for character creation, but we're going to add in guns, a ship combat mini-game, and for the more bookish types, trade goods and cargo. We'll start at 3rd level as newly-signed swabs on an established pirate ship, The Loyal Ranger. This will give us a chance to find our sea legs before moving on to the players getting their own ship!

About me
My name is Tommy and I love introducing players to new games and helping players feel more confident in their roleplaying! I cut my teeth on 3.5e in 2007, moved to Pathfinder 1e, then headed over to 5e before expanding my gaming consciousness to include Draw Steel, Traveller, Fate, and my own, homebrewed, rules super-light game, Kismet.

We'll build our characters together during session zero. Stats will be 4d6 drop the lowest. 5e primarily, 2024 updates by discussion with the GM only We're currently on a large pirate ship, so there's plenty of room on the crew for new characters to "already be there."

How Sage Tommy creates a safe table
We will discuss what's off the table at our session zero, but some things I won't allow at the table include homophobia/transphobia, sexual assault, and racism. X, N, and O cards can be invoked via webcam or direct message, whichever is most comfortable.
