Fellhunters
GURPS | Campaign
About the adventure
Fellhunters Bands of mercenary monster hunters protect the common folk from creatures of the Dark as members of the Fellhunter's Guild. Sponsored, in part, by the Church of the Five-Fold Sun, and chartered by the Crown, they use any means necessary to get the job done...even, sometimes, the dark arts of their enemies. World and Era: A world much like our own, a pseudo European dark fantasy setting with early firearms, roughly equivalent to the early 17th century, ruled over by the puritanical Church of the Five-Fold Sun...a religion with a golden pentagram , single point upright, as its symbol, representing the five ancient solar deities that the Church reveres as faces of the One True God. Based mainly in German and Dutch myth and folklore. Inspired by such media as Van Helsing, Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, Brothers Grimm, Season of the Witch, the Witcher. A world of folk and faerie tale horror, where the monsters are sometimes not as bad as the men.
Game style
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.

Additional details
How to prepare
Webcam, mic. We'll make characters together. Dice will be on app. You don't need to know the rules to start, I can teach you. Be prepared to get intense.
What I provide
I have everything we need. Bring yourself and your computer.:)
Gameplay details
You'll get a copy of the checklist from me and we can go over what to straight up avoid. Session zero will cover safety tools and expectations from the game. Even though we'll be using GURPs, we'll be using cinematic options and not the full tactical system, so expect fast, hyper-action play, with a very dark edge.

How will character creation work
We will create 250 point exceptionally competent (mostly) human Fellhunters together in the first session. I like to do it that way to make sure characters have ties to each other and gel well.
