Game style
Theater of the Mind
“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.
Rule of Cool (RoC)
“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.

Storytelling
Nova's ability to weave engaging player character arcs is truly remarkable. My character's backstory, which includes an NPC fiancée, is skillfully integrated into the main adventure, creating the deeply immersive romantic experience I had requested from them. Nova's storytelling allows for rich character development and I am always excited to see how the fictional relationship and friendships evolve. It's been a fantastic journey so far!
I'm very happy with the experience Nova has brought to the table! I haven't played many games before, but this game is by far my favorite. I've discovered that I like play by post (pbp) games a lot, and I recommend pbp games to people who have busy lives or struggle with talking over voice chat. Nova has made a very in depth world for us players to explore, and each part of the journey new and unexpected. I know I will be returning to their table to play again.
I wasn't entirely sure what to expect, being new to D&D and especially for a one-shot, knowing that this was one-and-done. However, coming out of things, I had an incredible experience. First of all, things started off incredible behind the scenes as I was able to bring in the bare bones of another character that I wasn't ready to give up, and by the end of the one-shot, I was satisfied with her conclusion. Gameplay was fun and not too fast-paced, the combat was just the right amount of challenging, and the roleplay opportunities were fun and carried the story through. Nova knew all the rules and was able to explain things to me in a way that I understood, and they were completely prepared with everything, from visual aids to music. Pure and simple, I had a blast and would absolutely play other games with them. Edit: I have since joined another game of theirs, this one a long-term PBP campaign, and in a word- it's amazing. Nova shows mastery of not only the ruleset, but the world itself, making it feel alive, like we're actually *living* in it. I get excited when I log in to see what I've missed, to be able to catch up on this amazing story being told and add my small part to it. Nova is also great at getting a newbie like me up to speed, and nothing ever feels drawn out or complicated. Their explanations are short, concise, and enable me to understand exactly what I'm doing. This edit just confirms what i've said above: Nova is a FANTASTIC DM. PBP, One-Shot, Long-Form- it doesn't matter the format or the subject, you're going to have a blast from beginning to end.

What I provide
I have content sharing on demiplane! I will respond routinely throughout the week, unless I give notice otherwise. I will deliver a masterful theater of the mind experience. The server we play on will have scenery art, character art, and general art to aid imagination. There will be a playlist representative of the game's soundtrack. As the story progresses more songs are unlocked. Positioning can be tracked in the theatre of the mind or my physical boards during combats. You can look forward to meeting Dynamic NPCs and enemies. I will make combat engaging with battle narration. Murderworld BCE is a beginner friendly campaign filled to the brim with opportunity for character development, social commentary, and alternative endings based on plot maps, natural consequences, and player feedback. I DO NOT CLAIM OWNERSHIP OF ANY MUSIC OR ART USED FOR THIS CAMPAIGN
Gameplay details
The Luxton Technique Discussion and lines and veils will be completed during on boarding. At the end of each chapter, aftercare is conducted by gauging if everyone is doing okay with the subjects that were portrayed. We then do a highlight reel where everyone shares their favorite moment. We give time to ask (in character or out of character) questions. Finally we facilitate dedicated time for players to express wishes for the future of the story and an opportunity to vent or give feedback to avoid bleed. Open communication all the way.
