About the adventure

๐™Ž๐™ฉ๐™ค๐™ง๐™ฎ: Say goodbye to touch screens and Prime same-day delievery, and say hello to the aftermath of the Y2K scare (nothing happened). Welcome back to the year 2000, October to be exact. Within the busy metropolis of Brightfalls, there is aways an event happening downtown, some party being hosted or some get-together planned. But these outings can get costly. You reach into your pockets and find out that you are flat broke. Someone in the party found an old teddy bear in their house and it might be worth something. But who knows where this thread will lead you. ๐™’๐™๐™–๐™ฉ ๐™ฉ๐™ค ๐™€๐™ญ๐™ฅ๐™š๐™˜๐™ฉ: An estimated 3hr story with a wonderful mix of Roleplay and problem solving.

Game style

Roleplay Heavy

โ€œRoleplay Heavyโ€ games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.

Mike is an experienced Game Master who genuinely loves RPGs and cares about his players. When you sign up for one of his games, he's going to make sure your questions are answered and that you have every resource that you need before the first session. He also has a terrific Discord community where you can hang out with other players and have a great experienced between sessions. I have played both D&D and Kids on Bikes with Mike and I saw firsthand how much shared storytelling is to him. He's always prepared for his sessions, but if the players throw a monkey wrench into the plans, Mike rolls with the punches. As a result, player agency is an important aspect of his games. Mike's never going to railroad his players. And, even though Mike is a flexible GM, he really knows the rules of the games that he runs. If you're looking for a top-notch GM who provides second-to-none gaming experiences, you should give one of Mike's games a shot!

The BEST DM that I have ever played with! He's amazing with storytelling and battle combat! You can definitely tell that he enjoys DMing and will work with players to achieve fun! Not only that, but his self-made campaign, Tainted Majesty, has amazing depths and exploration. With so much to do in combat, roleplaying, and storytelling, the options seem endless!

Mike is an incredibly talented DM, I strongly recommend you give his games a try!! He has created a living, diverse world where a character you create will have a unique place in the setting and story. Whether its a one-shot or starting a new journey as a campaign, definitely look Mike up if you want a rich story-driven setting.

Mike is imaginative, funny, and a great storyteller. He gives a lot of opportunities for players to be creative themselves and have an impact on the world/setting they're in.
