About the adventure
Between the time when the oceans drank Atlantis and the rise of the sons of Aryas, there was an age undreamed of. And unto this, Conan, destined to wear the jeweled crown of Aquilonia upon a troubled brow. It is I, his chronicler, who alone can tell thee of his saga. Let me tell you of the days of high adventure! You are a true hero of the Hyborian Age. Maybe you're a Cimmerian barbarian like Conan, a swordswoman like Red Sonja, a sneaky thief, a wizened sorceror careful to avoid the darker aspects of the dark arts, or a beautiful Princess forced to flee her lands by an evil usurper! Hyboria is a fascinating world to explore - what do you want your character to face? Ancient horrors, swashbuckling pirates, mysterious and unknowable forces, corrupt kings, a complex quest, or a series of tombs to loot. You could face a sorceror who says unto you thus: "You broke into my house, stole my property, murdered by servants and my pets, and THAT is what grieves me the most! You killed my snake…" You don't need to know the game system. We are going for the FEEL of the Hyborian Age. The mechanics are crunchy in places, but we'll learn it as we play with a focus on the story and your characters and true swords-and-sorcery feel of the world.

About me
I've been running roleplaying games since 1980. I'm new-ish to hosting games on-line, but what I may lack in technical expertise I hope to make up for in enthusiasm and making it fun for you! I play "rule of cool" and I look forward to roleplay with you!
View Profile →Character creation
Creating your character
We will create a custom character, together, in a pre-session (free), using the game's character creation system (that you do NOT need to know!), a character that fits your vision within the Hyborian world setting. Hyborian characters are considerably more capable than the regular person (this game does not have "levels" but you might think of starting as sort-of 3rd level in a D&D sense- you're not a beginner).
What to expect
Preparing for the session
All you need is a discord account, and a mic, and a I'll provide a link to Foundry where I host the game. And either an idea for a character, or we can discuss ideas, or you can roll randomly!

Safety
How Swords and Sorcery creates a safe table
I'll send a content form/lines and veils, for you to identify any topics of concern. I have an X-card on the virtual tabletop in case of concerns during play.
