About the adventure
It is 1923 and in the United States prohibition has been going on for 3 years. Organized Crime now has a solid foothold in American society as they supply alcohol to those willing to pay. And you have just escaped from the Gentry. You are a Changeling, once human you were taken from your life by a Fae. They tricked you, enticed you, or maybe just took you. Whatever it was they took you for, they changed you and broke you to their will until you weren't you. With some luck and skill, you managed to escape and come back to the world. You came back to Harrodville, a town south of Chicago. It's just far out enough that people can brew alcohol to sell to the Chicago Outfit. From the woods come them, the Hobs, creatures of fairy tales, myth, and on occasion servants of the Gentry. They cause havoc and make sure you can never forget that you were taken. This game takes place with custom courts based on common conflicts of the time: The Court of Order who seek to be the calm in the store. The Court of Hedonism who are desperate to enjoy themselves. The Court of Abstention who loathe the loose morals so many engage in. The Court of Liberty who express themselves to their fullest. The Court of Subversion who are consumed by greed. The Mob, the cops, the Hobs, the Gentry, and getting back your life. These are the challenges you face as a Changeling in The Wyld 20's!

About me
Hello, my name is Oscar and I am a game designer and active GM! I hope to GM a wide variety of games for an equally wide variety of people so that I can experience more perspectives on TTRPG's. I like the strange and the niche and want to bring unique TTRPG experiences to life! I've been a GM since 2017 and in that time I have run a number of different types of game. From galaxy spanning space adventures to gritty and cruel low fantasy I can run a variety of different tones and settings. I tend towards more combat but I am just as happy to run more story and role-play focused games. I'm not overly attached to any one system, and if I don't already know it I'm happy to learn it. I've actively run Exalted, Lancer, Crowns, Five Torches Deep, and Shadow of the Demon Lord as well as familiarized myself with Eclipse Phase, Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 4e, Chronicles of Darkness, Pathfinder 2e, and Cyberpunk RED

How Oscar C. creates a safe table
This game will use a session 0 to set player expectations, make characters, and discuss safety tools. This game also uses X,N,O cards for player safety during game. X cards stop the game if content that players are uncomfortable with comes up, N cards are used when a player feels content that could lead to an X card is coming, and O cards are used to check in on a player if you feel content may have upset them. This game uses the Lines and veils safety tools. Lines are content that players do not want in the game at all. Veils are content that players only want hinted at. The default lines and veils at this table are No Sexual Assault, No Racism, No Homophobia, No Misogyny. This game will have a 10 minute break if it goes beyond the 2 hour mark. This game also has an open door policy, so players are free to leave for any reason if they need to.
