How to prepare

🔧 Ensure you have enough time throughout the week to get the most out of this campaign. 🔧 I am available to respond in the afternoon till 11 PM EST, so I will often include 3 to 5 responses daily, if possible. 🔧 I tend to mirror the player I am roleplaying with, which can affect the amount of messages I provide and their detail unless a scene requires a certain amount of input on my end.

What I provide

🎨 Descriptive and Detailed Storytelling: I take great care in describing each action my players take, including their appearance and how the environment reacts to their actions. I enjoy making players the centerpiece of any given scenario, whether they're part of a larger canvas with their party or interacting with NPCs they've grown attached to. 🗺️ Custom Maps and Tokens: For the campaign, I use a mixture of online, free resources for maps that fit the setting. Additionally, I design maps digitally to enhance the campaign, especially for combat scenarios where I excel. I also create custom tokens for each character, NPC, and creature to provide a clear sense of appearance for individuals and creatures of the setting. 🌍 Living World: I treat each setting I GM as an open, living world. Unlike Westmarch-style campaigns, everything moves with or without the players in each session. This means NPCs, creatures, and environments are capable of growth and change, developing alongside the player characters. This approach allows for solo sessions, sister campaigns with an overarching plot, and a consistent and nuanced cast of characters, I find it provides more memorable experiences. ⚔️ Flexibility and Improvisation: Whether my players do something unexpected or a rule is misread or misunderstood, I prioritize two things: the rule of cool and improvisation. I often adapt my original plans to accommodate the whims of my players, enjoying the role of a reactive GM. I provide a variety of options and always leave the possibility for players to take their own route using the setting provided. 🎭 Player Expectations: Now, enough about me 😅. My only expectations for players are to be respectful and open-minded. Ultimately, it’s about your stories and your interactions with the world, creating your own adventures by exploring and engaging with the rich setting within the campaign. Therefore, create characters with ambition and a willingness to venture into the unknown to conquer this world and its challenges. I look forward to GM'ing for you and supporting your journey from zero to hero.

Gameplay details

Ensuring everyone feels comfortable and safe in my campaigns is my top priority. To achieve this, I use these safety tools: 🛠️Session 0: We'll have an initial session dedicated to discussing expectations, boundaries, and any personal concerns. This helps us establish a safe and inclusive environment from the start. 🔒Lines and Veils: We'll define clear lines (topics that are completely off-limits) and veils (topics that will be addressed indirectly) to maintain everyone's comfort throughout the campaign. ⏸️ Breaks: We'll schedule regular breaks during sessions to give everyone a chance to relax and reset, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience for all. 💬 We will be playing using the Discord platform for communication. I've custom-designed character sheets, courtesy of a friend, specifically for this campaign. 🎲 For dice rolls, we'll be using Avrae, Dice Maiden, or UnbelievaBoat. On my server, I prioritize fun and respectful communication, encouraging a creative and cooperative atmosphere.

How will character creation work

♠ Building Your Background: In the world of Gundam 7, the divisions among factions and ideologies are deeper than ever. Understanding your character’s identity and motivations is essential. Start by choosing an affiliation—be it the Federation, Freedom Fighters, or another group. Once that’s established, expand on your character’s cultural background, ethnicity, and nationality. From there, other details like sex, age, height, and weight should come naturally as you flesh out your character. ♠ Determining your Enhancements: Gundam 7 merges elements from multiple Gundam series, offering a variety of enhancements for your character. You can choose to be a Newtype, an Innovator, or even a hybrid like an Innovator Cyber Newtype. While the setting encourages acquiring these traits naturally as your character develops, you can start with one if it suits your story. Keep in mind that this enhancement will significantly define your character for some time, so choose wisely. ♠ Deciding your Deployment: Each character in Gundam 7 has an assigned class, referred to as a Deployment, which shapes their storyline. ♠ Assigning your Attributes: Each character has six core attributes, rated on a scale from 0 to 3 {with 0 being the human average}. These attributes influence both mobile suit combat and your character's general performance in the setting. ♠ Create your Identity: Combine your character’s background and attributes to create a cohesive identity. Your attributes should align with your character’s personality and role in the story. Once your character is complete, write a detailed backstory that explains their motivations, experiences, and how they fit into the Gundam 7 universe. Submit your final character profile to begin your journey.
