About the adventure

Welcome to Valla'Tair, the City of Salt, Rom'Myr's last great city on the edge of time. The urban campaign is the promise of freedom: where PCs are encouraged to move about in three dimensions, plotting their heists from damp alleyways, fog-slick rooftops and foul sewers; where a quick tongue and clever wit is more deadly than the sharpest blade; where PC creativity, audacity, and roguish luck carry the day. It's the promise of exotic bazaars, forbidden seraglios, diabolical sorcerers and heathen cults, where lives are measured in silver and where - with enough gold - anything is possible. Had enough of the rough and tumble city life? Pass through the Ash Gate and explore the endlessly fascinating world of Rom'Myr, where forgotten knowledge an unknown artifacts wait to be discovered. Rom'Myr is a "Dying Earth". Dying Earth is a subgenre of science fantasy which takes place in the far future at the end of life on Earth, when the laws of the universe themselves fail. Dominant themes include world-weariness, innocence, idealism, entropy, heat death of the universe, exhaustion or depletion of many or all resources, and the hope of renewal.

What I provide

I will provide an on-air studio for gameplay. I will use pictures of the world, place locations, items, and characters you encounter to aid in visualizing the mysterious world. Most I draw myself, so Rom'Myr has a distinctive flavor and style. You will receive my campaign guide and "twenty questions answered" about Rom'Myr. Free rules and character sheets.
