About the adventure
Welcome to Detroit, where the rusting bones of industry stand like gravestones and secrets fester in every shadow. The city is a powder keg of supernatural tension—and you are the spark. Bound by desperation, your misfit band is drawn to The Spaces in Between, a bar that exists outside ordinary rules. Its enigmatic bartender, a collector of stories and secrets, offers you a deal: he will grant you his strange alchemy, but in return, you must step into the stories of Detroit’s night. Each tale he gives you is a mission steeped in horror, injustice, and mystery, and you will be the ones to live it. This chronicle is episodic and sandbox in spirit, in the vein of The X-Files, Millennium, and Supernatural. At its core lies a question: What is the price of your power? From the glass towers of the Technocracy to the blood-soaked alleys of warring vampire sects, from fae-haunted ruins to the poisoned spirit world of the Umbra, every choice will shape who you become. Over time, your characters will grow from haunted outcasts into figures of destiny—heroes, monsters, or something between. Can you cling to humanity while facing the horrors of the night, or will survival demand its final sacrifice? Your story waits in the shadows.

About me
🎲 “Hold on, let me roll Persuasion first… success!” Hello, I’m Tyler — a storyteller, designer, and lifelong gamer with decades of experience behind the screen. My players describe me as Immersive, Supportive, and Masterful. I’ve guided hundreds of players through unforgettable games at conventions, on streams and podcasts, and in home campaigns across North and South America. I’ve collaborated with publishers like Onyx Path, Free League, Chaosium, and Helmgast, and I’m also a published writer and designer with credits in both indie and professional TTRPG projects. Whether it’s your first session or your hundredth, my goal is always the same: create a safe, inclusive space where your story matters. I invite you to explore my reviews and join a game to see why so many players return to my tables again and again.

Creating your character
We’ll shape your characters together prior to your first session. Feel free to sketch something out ahead of time. Expect some adjustments, as I’ll walk you through my custom character creation and homebrew additions to help tie your character deeply into the world.
This is a crossover chronicle, where different supernatural beings share the same stage. The current party consists of two Mages, a Werespider, and a Changeling—each with their own secrets, goals, and unique perspectives on the city’s dangers. There are two open seats waiting to be filled, offering new players the chance to bring in fresh supernatural archetypes and add new layers to the ongoing story. Expect a mix of collaboration, tension, and complex dynamics as wildly different creatures learn to survive together.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
All you need is a microphone and the desire to dive into an unforgettable story.
What Tyler brings to the table
I’ll have Foundry prepared with a full soundscape of ambient music. I also provide PDFs for those who need them, plus a guided walkthrough for new players creating their first Mages or other supernatural beings. Everything is designed to make your entry into the World of Darkness seamless and inspiring.
Homebrew rules
I emphasize storytelling first, mechanics second. Character creation is expanded with my own bespoke additions, as well as custom Merits, Flaws, and narrative hooks to root your character in Detroit’s occult underworld. Dice rolls support the fiction, but when in doubt, story and player choice carry more weight than strict rules. Combat is cinematic, and consequences—both triumphs and tragedies—matter.

How Tyler creates a safe table
Your comfort is a priority. Once you join, I’ll send a Google form to establish clear lines and veils. We’ll use digital or video X, N, and O cards for in-session safety, and everyone’s boundaries are understood and respected. Together, we’ll keep the table safe, supportive, and welcoming.
