Game style
Rule of Cool (RoC)
“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.
Roleplay Heavy
“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
Theater of the Mind
“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.
The crew has just finished their first milk run, and are returning to Drinax with the prize!

How to prepare
Be ready to read some material and get into character to play an amazing game.
What I provide
I bring a boosted Discord server, a Roll20 Pro account, all the Traveller books in pdf format, and my sense of story.
Gameplay details
I've selected a lot of trigger warnings because space is HUGE, and there's no telling what you're going to run into. That said, consent is an ongoing conversation and I use a living lines and veils document and safety cards to stop the action if we have to. Your safety is my top priority.
