What I provide

Most of the game will be theater of the mind, however if combat comes up and we need a map I do have them. I use Kenku.FM to provide ambience music and sound effects. I tend to embrace the rule of cool. Character sheets will be provided for all players. At the end of the campaign I will provide a group portrait and Character Portraits as well!

Gameplay details

Players can expect a rules light experience. I will link a lines and veils document to all players. In session 0 I will go over all the rules and we will go over character creation.
