Player goals and expectations, including how the pacing will work with check-ins throughout the day. Introduction of safety tools to create a comfortable and inclusive environment for everyone.

How will character creation work

When and How: Character creation will take place before the game begins during Session 0, which is held in text chat. This allows us to work together to integrate your character into the story, build connections with other players, and ensure everyone has a shared understanding of the game’s world and tone. Starting Level & Stats: Characters will typically start at Level 1–3, depending on the story and game type. Stats will be rolled or chosen using a standard array (with some flexibility if it fits the narrative). I’m always happy to help with builds, whether you want to play a classic archetype or something truly unique. Customization: This is a highly narrative-focused game, so character backstories and motivations are key. You can expect lots of creative freedom, but we’ll work together to ensure your character fits the setting. If you have an idea for a custom race, class, or magical feature, let’s talk!
