How to prepare
Besides the essentials (good internet, computer, headset with microphone), players should ideally bring these to enhance their "Shadows of Atlantis" experience: A love for pulp adventure: An appreciation for classic adventure stories, Indiana Jones, and the spirit of exploration is key. A sense of wonder: A willingness to embrace the unknown, the fantastical, and the Lovecraftian elements. An open mind: Be prepared for the unexpected, embrace collaborative storytelling, and be open to new ideas. A note-taking system: A notebook, digital notes app, or even just a good memory to jot down important clues, character details, and memorable moments. A willingness to roleplay: Dive deep into your character, embrace their personality, and bring them to life through your actions and dialogue. While not strictly necessary, these extra elements will significantly enrich the gaming experience and help players fully immerse themselves in the world of "Shadows of Atlantis."
What I provide
"Fellow adventurers, prepare to embark on an extraordinary journey unlike any other! We will be utilizing the power of modern technology to bring the lost world of Atlantis to life: Foundry will serve as our digital map, allowing us to track our progress, manage combat encounters, and share information seamlessly. Syrinscape will immerse us in the atmosphere, providing dynamic soundscapes that will bring the ocean depths, ancient temples, and bustling cities to life. Imagine the crashing waves, the whispers of the wind, and the eerie calls of unseen creatures. Midjourney will generate stunning visuals, transforming our imaginations into breathtaking images. We'll witness the grandeur of Atlantean architecture, the horrors of forgotten creatures, and the beauty of the underwater world. But technology is merely a tool. The heart of this adventure will lie in the meticulous research and historical context I bring to the table. As a scholar with a Masters in Comparative Religions and History, I will weave in the intricate details of ancient mythologies, explore the philosophical and religious beliefs of Atlantis, and provide a deeper understanding of the historical and cultural context of this lost civilization.

How will character creation work
**"Before we plunge into the depths of Atlantis, we'll dedicate a special session – Session 0 – to crafting our extraordinary investigators. This will be a collaborative effort where we'll: Explore character concepts: Discuss our individual interests and brainstorm unique character ideas that fit the pulp adventure style of the campaign. Develop backstories: Uncover the motivations that drive our characters to seek the secrets of Atlantis. What secrets do they yearn to uncover? What personal demons do they seek to conquer? Build compelling backstories: We'll delve into our characters' pasts, exploring their skills, connections, and the events that shaped them into the adventurers they are today. Session 0 is crucial for creating characters that are not only powerful, but also deeply personal and meaningful. It's an opportunity to build a strong foundation for our investigative team and ensure that everyone feels invested in their roles."
