How to prepare

Players need a webcam and mic. They are encouraged to read the rules ahead of time, but do not need to.

What I provide

The setting of this game is the best part! I'll work to bring a whole host of characters to life through voices, characterization, and improv so that the mavens can focus on cracking the mystery in an every increasingly eerie world. Also, as a queer DM I'm dedicated to making sure that the games are safe and inclusive for everyone!

Gameplay details

I utilize lines and veils and the x card. Especially, because this is a cosmic horror game that also vacillates back and forth between light and darker atmosphere, I want players to be able to play for the creepy and the spooky of the story, but also be able to say, "This is a lot" and know they will be listened to at the table. We'll use chat and / voice for X card or pause buttons.
