About the adventure
🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ Welcome ✨ Beginners Welcome ✨ 🔗Industry & Exploitation! 💀Faith & Madness! 👑Power & Consequence! 🔓Totally Open-Ended 🕵️♂️The City Fantasy Sandbox Campaign You've Been Looking For 🥂 In a period of rapid change unlike any the city of Absalom has ever seen, history is primed to be written anew. Slavery has been abolished, the primarch has gone missing; and amidst the turmoil, each of the city's many factions has set their sights on political opportunity. The War of Strings will be a campaign custom-tailored to your characters - the city is a massive sandbox that will respond to your choices and complicate your goals. Your group will define the shape of the narrative, and your group goals will lead you into conflict with the city-spanning intrigues in play. This is not the campaign for passive players! 🗡️High-Stakes Roleplay with Three-Dimensional Characters 🤺Gripping & Satisfying Combat 🎭Excellent Voice Acting 🎨Gorgeous, Layered Maps & Artwork 🎼Impeccable Soundtracks

What I provide
A premium VTT experience in Foundry; gorgeous artwork, interactive city maps, integrated journal pages, and slick combat gizmos. Carefully curated soundtracks piped through Discord. Thoughtful, heartfelt, and colorful character voices. Extensive rules knowledge and an eye for story above all else.
Gameplay details
During Session 0 we'll discuss our various safety tools and how best to utilize them. Afterwards I'll send out the Monte Cook RPG Consent Checklist to get a precise record of which subjects need not be broached during our game. Consent is a constant state of flow, and I intend to foster an environment where the group can discuss uncomfortable situations as they develop, if necessary - and to support one-another in finding the most equitable ways of moving forward with the game.

How will character creation work
At our Session 0, we'll congregate in Foundry and in Discord to discuss as a group what kind of adventuring party we want to create. We'll focus on dreaming up potential interplay between the party's characters, and what sorts of stories we're interested in telling with them. If you need help with character building or rules knowledge, I'll be happy to walk you through them.
