About the adventure
7th Sea is a 17th-18th Century world modeled on Renaissance Europe. The game has elements of pirate fiction, with many different sorceries, secret societies and plenty of political intrigue. I tend to run it as a combination of The Princess Bride and Black Sails, although it is highly customized to the players. The world of Theah is very broad and I encourage my players to work together in building a ship that will become the focus of the campaign, and allow you to explore the world.

About me
Hey all! I am a school social worker by trade, and I run D&D 5E for the kids in the framework of group therapy and social skills development. However, my preference really lies in more old-school, crunchy games such as 1st Ed. 7th Sea, Torg, and D&D 3.5. I am a firm believer that elaborate rules don't necessarily have to interrupt a good story, as long as the GM is good at navigating them. If you are interested in any of these systems, please reach out: as I get my feet wet, my rates will be very competitive. I have been playing D&D and other RPG's since the age of nine, so given that I am old (AF), I bring over 30 years of experience and hundreds of games run as GM. I've been using Roll20 since 2013, and have over 10,000 hours of employing just about all the bells and whistles it has to offer.

What to expect
Preparing for the session
a mic and a Roll20 account are a necessity, webcams optional. Familiarity with 7th Sea 1E would be preferred, but absolutely not necessary.
What Jon brings to the table
I'll admit struggle with voices and accents, however I am very accomplished with crafting npcs and storytelling in general. I have a pro Roll20 subscription, and all books in PDF format. I will include music, custom maps, tokens, and handouts.

How Jon creates a safe table
Instead of a checklist, I will send out an open-ended questionnaire. I find there are always things that get missed on a checklist, however if you prefer it, one can be provided.
