About the adventure
š¹ Hunt horrors both biological and mechanical! š¹ Survive the chaotic Chicagoland in 2095! š¹ Untangle a complicated web of corporate intrigue and a world-shattering plot! There are things that go bump in the night, partner. Born in the labs, runaway experiments, creations of deranged scientists, honest folk turned monsters by circumstance or choice, and even those who willingly turn themselves into something unsavory. There are also those who keep Chicago safe from these things. Bio-Hunters, both freelance and corporate, are a breed apart - they get to crawl down into the dark places and take the fight to the monsters. It's often a thankless, dangerous job, but hey, whatever pays the bills, right? But when an ambitious corporation decides it's time to step up the bio-hybrid game, there's only one group of misfit hunters that can stand in their way. That's you. So polish your chrome, bust out the big guns and ride that van into the sunset... and hope for a payday before another mutated octogator drags your down into the depths of the sewers.
It's still early days for the campaign! Come and join! The elevator pitch for this campaign is "The Witcher meets Cyberpunk in the anarchic dystopian America". The game is a plot-point campaign (essentially, a large sandbox with certain "story missions"). Personal storylines of player characters drive the game and are intervowen with the main plot.

Additional details
How to prepare
You will require Discord and a Forge account (both are free, you do not need to have a Foundry license as a player). Familiarity with the rules is welcome, but not required - I will explain and guide you as we play, and the mechanics are fairly simple anyway. Bring your cyberpunk tropes and vibes with you, and be ready to dive into a setting full of danger and adventure. And have a spare character. Just in case.
What I provide
- Foundry VTT with paid modules for Savage Worlds Adventure Edition. - Scenes, maps, tokens and all manner of visual aids via Foundry modules or image manipulation magics. - Funny accented voices. Most importantly, I'll bring you a full-scale plot point campaign in Chicagoland, set between 2095 and 2096. Intrigue, investigation and, of course, monster hunts are going to be the main course, peppered with personal storylines and vivid NPCs.
Gameplay details
The world of Interface Zero is a gloomy place. Nations were shattered, there are rogue AIs on the loose, and human life is cheaper than ever. Given the theme, players are expected to be able to take the typical cyberpunk themes in stride. That said, ultraviolence is not something we'll focus on; lines & veils will be established as well. Sexual content might be mentioned, but will be fade-to-black in all cases, not ever on screen.

How will character creation work
Characters will be created together at Session 0. If you're joining after the initial start of the campaign, I'll schedule a personal Session 0 with you to help out with this! Savage Worlds is a pretty simple system, but building a character requires some reading of Edges and Flaws, as well as equipment.
