About the adventure

👤🏡In this game, you take the role of someone moving into a small community and starting their life anew. 🌽👩🏼‍🌾Maybe you’ll restore your family’s farm. 🌲🌳Maybe you’ll explore the mysterious forest just beyond town. 💕💍Maybe you’ll fall in love and get married! This game is a hack of Ironsworn and Ironsworn: Starforged about living a cozy life with good company, one day at a time. The key inspirations for Iron Valley are life and farming simulation games such as Animal Crossing, Story of Seasons (Harvest Moon), and Stardew Valley. No prior experience or knowledge of Iron Valley, Ironsworn or other games required. 📖 This campaign unfolds in a Play-by-Post (PbP) format, facilitated through a dedicated website called https://harpy.gg/. The game is fully compatible with a broad range of devices, including mobiles, tablets, and phones. As your Game Master, I'll be checking in and updating the game multiple times daily. Players are encouraged to participate at least once a day, especially when their characters are involved in active scenes.

About me

|| ## ENGLISH ## || I love stories! I love to tell them, but I am even more interested in getting to know new ones. RPGs are a great way for people to connect, and share their stories while creating stories together! I mostly enjoy the collaboration aspect of RPGs, especially in our hyper-individualized world. We have the opportunity to hone our creativity, roleplaying, critical thinking, and many other life skills while having a lot of fun, and having fun together! My favorite games are narrative and/or rules-light in which players are encouraged to explore and develop their characters. With my teaching background, I'm experienced in active listening and facilitation, which eases conversations and understanding for everybody in the group. My goal is to build immersive worlds and create unforgettable experiences WITH my players. I run both one-shots and campaigns in many different scenarios from books, movies, TV shows, and anime. I'm excited to create memorable stories with you! Are you ready to dive into a world of our making? 🚨 I ALSO DO CUSTOM-REQUEST GAMES!! 🚨 Check my Games Played section, below.

Amo contá-las, mas estou ainda mais interessado em descobrir novas histórias. Os RPGs são uma ótima maneira para as pessoas se conectarem e compartilharem suas histórias enquanto criam histórias juntas! Gosto principalmente do aspecto de colaboração dos RPGs, especialmente em nosso mundo hiperindividualizado. Temos a oportunidade de aprimorar nossa criatividade, interpretação de papéis, pensamento crítico e muitas outras habilidades vitais enquanto nos divertimos muito, e nos divertimos juntos!
