KILL THE BASILISK
Heart: The City Beneath RPG | Campaign
About the adventure
THE BASILISK TREADS UPON GROUND BOTH HOLY AND COMMON, WEEPING AND WAILING. PUT IT OUT OF ITS MISERY. Your party has been commissioned for a grave task: Kill the Basilisk. Little is known about the creature, other than it is a pitiable spreader of disease and death, wreaking havoc on the denizens of Heart. Your Client, Harvest-the-desolate(Harvest), has directed you to go to Worm Town, as the Hound there has reported a sighting of the beast. Heart: the city beneath is a high narrative-exploration-based ttrpg made to tell stories of unfortunate souls venturing into the horrifying Heart, a shifting, roiling landscape underneath the city of Spire. This four session campaign will be bloody, dark, and laden with misery. It will focus upon combat and exploration through the heart, and nauseating terror of the creatures and people that live there. Characters may die, and before that they may become unrecognizable. LASCIATE OGNE SPERANZA, VOI CH'INTRATE

How to prepare
Come with a discord account, a reliable microphone and wifi connection, and a way to edit a spreadsheet easily.
What I provide
I will be offering a pdf outlining our safety tool Script Change, as well as excerpts outlining the rules and character creation of Heart. I will also have a session primer about the setting, and will have music playing during our sessions. Our dice roller is in discord, and our character sheets will be over google sheets. Play will be based on roleplay and storytelling, and as a GM i will always try to do what is the most cool (or terrible) over what conforms to the rules or the setting the most.
Gameplay details
We will have a session 0 (Which will be provided for free) during which we will go over character creation, as well as Script Change, which is the safety tool that will be used. Keep in mind that the threat grievous injury, physical and emotional, as well as death to the player characters is integral to the story, however when it comes to larger, more real-life themes, are up for discussion. Most important is the safety of the players and I will always be available both in and out of game to discuss ways to make players feel safe and comfortable to craft this story together. Leaving or missing a session is permissable at any time, as well as refunds if a session is majorly dissapointing.

How will character creation work
This will happen primarily during session 0, unless a player feels comfortable enough to create a character beforehand. Supplemental material beyond the core rulebook is on the table, with the GM's notification and approval. (I will agree in most cases)
