Discworld | One-Shot

About the adventure

"Ooook!" This is the last known word spoken by The Librarian, custodian of all knowledge in Ankh Morpork's magical library, before his disappearance. However, after being turned into an orangutan in an arcane accident decades ago, that particular word wasn't unusual coming from his mouth. What made it peculiar, is that wizards have started disappearing ever since, leaving the city in terrible danger from the whats-its from the Dungeon Dimensions. The University now turns to an unlikely place for help: The City Watch. * * * * * Adventures in Ankh-Morpork, the Discworld tabletop roleplaying game, catapults you onto the streets of the Big Wahoonie, and once you've dusted yourself off you can adventure to your heart's content. With imagination and some shiny math rocks at your fingertips, your story on the Disc awaits. Based on the popular Discworld fantasy series by Sir Terry Pratchett, Adventures in Ankh-Morpork is an officially licensed tabletop roleplaying game set in its most recognisable city, complete with Sir Terry's iconic wit, humour, and humanistic satire.

My name is Davey, and I'm a professional and award-winning storyteller, actor, writer, and theatremaker. I've ADORED Discworld for over a decade, and I'm so excited to run this game. No need to be very familiar with the material, it's a delight regardless and can be enjoyed without that knowledge! Though there will be some recognisable faces to encounter. I hope to roll the dice with you soon!

How will character creation work

The system is very easy! Not hard at all. It's as easy as a definitely easy thing is to do. And also, deeply silly. All characters are premade and are members of The Watch or the Unseen University staff - first come, first served! We'll go over the mechanics (such as they are) at the start of the session πŸ₯³
