About the adventure

Interested in learning about Essence20, the game system used for Power Rangers, GI Joe, Transformers, and My Little Pony? Want to join a group of teenagers with attitude and save Angel Grove? Then this game will be for you! We will be playing with the Essence20 game system, explaining how the system works and showing how it is similar and different compared to other game systems.

Game style

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.

Zach is so great. He worked with me to get a game going that I've been dreaming about and has been so helpful every step of the way. He goes above and beyond to make the game so much fun. When you find the right GM, you know, and with Zach you know.

I've been playing in a Power Rangers game with Zach as the GM for over a year now, and it's been so much fun. He lets us have fun first, and is genuinely excited when we blow up his well-laid plans with creative uses of our abilities.

Additional details

How to prepare

Players will need a microphone in order to interact with the GM and the rest of the players, Discord downloaded, and an account on Roll20. Players may roll with their own physical dice, or use the dice rolling in Roll20.

What I provide

I bring illustrations and maps.

Gameplay details

In Session Zero, we will go over the basics on how an Essence 20 game is played, as well as character creation. We will discuss the use of the X, N, and O cards on Roll20, and how Discord will be incorporated into the gameplay. For aftercare, I handle that individually as an "Open Door" policy of players being allowed to come to me and state their feelings separately so they don't feel pressured in the moment.

How will character creation work

Character creation will happen during Session Zero, including relationship building and specification to help give players a starting point for how they're characters interact with each other. If players wish to go with a premade character, that's fine too! I will bring some premade characters to choose from.
