Absurdia: Burgeoning Chaos
Absurdia, Powered by the Apocalypse RPG | Campaign
About the adventure
Welcome to Illogia, a town so infused with entropy that every hallmark of normalcy is infused with chaos. Of course the town cemetery has visiting days for people to interact with the living dead - to not have such a thing would be abnormal! This is where you live, having slowly grown accustomed to the abnormality. After all, one can only be surprised by Trash Collection so many times before they learn to expect it (the inherent danger of it serves as an excellent motivator). You've also lived here long enough to know there's no way to escape this place (yet?) - all you can do is try to survive and overcome the community you live in. Torn between your alliances to yourself, your friends, and your factions; how long will it take before you, too, are absorbed by the strangeness about town? This is a simple starter campaign for players of all experience levels, so feel free to join even if you're unfamiliar with the system! Note: Except for under extenuating circumstances, leaving the game less than 3 hours before game time will not be refunded.

Gameplay details
- There will be a (free) Session 0 during which we go over rules, setting, and character creation - Every player will be encouraged to add their Lines and Veils to a shared Google Sheet (this will be anonymous). - X, N, and O cards will be via message or on voice chat. - If an Open Door is invoked, other than asking if the player will be back later and what triggered the Open Door no other questions will be asked. - A 5-10 minute break will be taken every hour. - Stars and Wishes will be discussed at the end of the session.

How will character creation work
Upon signing up for the game, you will be added to a Discord server created specifically for this game. There you will find a player resources channel with a Google Drive with the fillable character sheets, lines and veils document, and available playbooks. Characters will start at the base creation level. Feel free to ping me at any time if you have any questions!
