About the adventure

You are a group of wild animals that live close to the MacDonald Farm. This year they are in charge of hosting the big fair. And in order to show off to all of the other farmers, old Mr. MacDonald has made the grand prize for the "Largest Pumpkin" competition one years supply of good feeding corn. It's now up to you wild animals to secure your winter food by stealing the grand prize however you have to. This will be an extremely chaotic, fun, one shot. The system will be a costume system I have crafted (and play tested many many times, in campaigns and one shots.) It is a roll assisted system with elements taken from Kids on Bikes (like assigning dice to your stats and explosions) and Thirsty Sword Lesbians (Like playbook moves that lend themselves to character driven mechanics.) Hope to see you at the barnyard!

About me

Itching for adventure and immersive storytelling? Then I'm your GM! A kind fae that would definitely never steal your name, soul, or anything else of the sort, and I resent the accusation! I have a background in theatre and years of playing pretend in the woods, so expect lots of over the top roleplay, whimsy, and lots of in depth worlds! I place a lot of important on open communication, rule simplifying, and above all else, having a great time. Of course, new players are more than welcome at all of my games! I love building worlds that feel lived in, with a lot of culture and many individual characters. I also LOVE taking the ideas my players give me, and running with them. So don't be surprised when that one small joke you made during character creation comes back at a large scale in the story! I am flexible, adapt to my player's needs and put great effort in my games. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me!

Mizuki is an incredible storyteller! She puts her heart and soul into the world to make it immersive and engaging. She uses voices, maps, and excellent dialogue to create a world that is alive and feels so much bigger than the slice you as players get to see. She is inclusive, creative, and really works with you to craft a great collaborative story. I cannot recommend her enough!

Mizuki has been great. He's really created an interesting story to unwind. Even with our group of independently created characters that are on all ends of a spectrum, they've created a space that there can be respectable conflict and camaraderie. I've loved developing my character with this group and fully recommended this GM!

Alex is the BEST, especially when you're trying out a new system. She helps make it simple but engaging from start to finish and gives breaks during a session so we can get snacks or use the bathroom as we need. I bought this experience for my wife and she loved it as well. Highly recommend!

Such a bubbly and energetic GM! I had such an amazing time interaction and engaging with multiple NPC throughout our sessions, each with such dramatic personalities that made it so fun to engage with. They did an amazing job always improvising and being in the roles of each NPC and really heightened the tension in high action scenes to hijinks when it called for it. I can't stress how the extra physical acting Alex brought to the table was such a great way to connect and their energy always made me want to give it my all too! I always felt safe at the tables and immediately clicked with our wonderful table and it was so beautiful how Alex crafted our PC's backstories together for a satisfying end. Thank you so much Alex :)

The GM is really fun and very versatile with Roleplaying. Extremely helpful, creative and lighthearted. Would definitely recommend to friends interested in any kind of tabletop game.

Character creation
Creating your character

Once you have signed up, I will put you into my discord server where you can chat with other players. It will have all of the resources you will need for the game. From there we will arrange a one on one meeting to build your character, learn the rules and brainstorm what kind of story you would like to tell! From there we will schedule the game!

What to expect
Preparing for the session

Think of what kind of animal you want to be, and what kind of heist stereotype you might want to fit, if any. You should also think of why you want this corn and what you are willing to do to get it. Finally, think of any connection you have to the farm, or any of the creatures on it. Have a discord account so we can get connected quickly and begin creation ASAP :)

What Mizuki Magica brings to the table

The system we will be using as well as a the rules and detailed character creation process so you can feel secure in it, even if you are new to ttrpg's. When it comes to gameplay I am a very dynamic rule of cool DM that loves the rule of cool. If you can come up with something crazy enough I am more than likely to allow it and work it into the world. Expect lots of character voices and in-depth RP.

How Mizuki Magica creates a safe table

I highly doubt we'll need any warnings but because characters will be animals we will talk about what animals might be triggering for anyone as well as any content that would make anyone uncomfortable so we are able to have as much chaotic fun as possible! I will have a one on one character creation to confirm with everyone what they are comfortable with and what kind of ideas they would be excited to work into the story. We will also have check-ins and a small break half way through.
