How to prepare

-A mic would be easiest but I'm ok with typing on Discord. -Have a way of keeping track of your points because you will lose some SAN, LUCK, or HP -It will be fast if you create your character before hand but you may talk to me on discord if you what help

What I provide

I will also use the screen sharing to show dice rolls so you don’t need to bring any dice but you can if you want. I’m more flexible with the rules and more for a fun experience. I'm very creative and if a better option is available, may change or a way that may support you more.

Gameplay details

I don’t charge any session 0 At the start of the session, we will talk about characteristics so you may add what subjects not to bring up in that time. If you’re feeling uncomfortable send me a message or tell me. This game type does include a lot of content warnings, it just depends on what happens. My discord username is edteheditor.
