About the adventure

🚀 Embark on an epic journey through the world of Mass Effect! 🚀 Game Synopsis: The Sovereign Incident is dismissed as Geth madness. Commander Shepard has vanished. And out on the rim of known space, entire colonies are beginning to go dark. You are one of many souls aboard the SS Emberline, a long-haul passenger vessel en route to New Canton, a rugged colony in the Terminus Systems. You’re not with the Alliance or any Citadel goverment. You’re engineers, former mercenaries, discharged soldiers, ex-cons, pilgrims, debt-dodgers, dreamers. All of you are running from something or chasing something new. When the ship is ambushed by slavers mid-transit, you’re forced to band together and fight for your lives. With the crew dead, the vessel barely holding together, and the remaining passengers thrown into chaos, you become unlikely heroes—adrift in a shattered ship, in a galaxy on the brink of war. But your escape is only the beginning. Whispers of vanishing colonies echo in every port. Survivors speak of entire populations disappearing without a trace. And somewhere out there, in the void, the Collectors are gathering, and the Reapers are coming. You were just trying to survive. Now, you may be the only ones left to stop what’s coming. 🚀 In this game, you will take command of a spaceship, traverse the treacherous expanses of space in a campaign set in the beloved world of Mass Effect, between the end of Mass Effect 1 and the beginning of Mass Effect 2. Navigate the galaxy, battle the Reapers and the Collectors, and navigate the complex politics of a galaxy on the brink of chaos! 🚀 Game Information: Game Duration: 3 - 3.5 hours Levels: 2-12 VTT: Foundry VTT Character Creation: Fixed stat array + feat at level 1 New players are more than welcome!

About me

Hi there! I'm Mmaria, a Professional Dungeon Master. I am a Brazilian woman who always had a passion for games, specially TTRPGs. The first time I played an RPG game was when I had only 14 years old, and the expectation of great adventures led me to beg my grandmother to buy me the Starter Kit for 4ed D&D and a set of dice. Ever since I've been playing TTRPGs, mostly as the Game Master. You see, DMing is not only my job, but also my passion. I've always loved writing and creative projects, so to be able to weave a tale of adventure with a group of friends, to build entire worlds and live a thousand lives is truly incredible! I've been working as a Professional DM for 2 years now, with over 10 tables in discord, and now I'm transitioning over to StartPlaying! I've ran multiple official and homebrew campaigns over the years. I'm also recording a stream of Curse of Strahd with five other friends and myself as the Dungeon Master, which you will soon be able to find in Twitch and Youtube. I love running spooky games, so you'll always see some Curse of Strahd, Ravenloft, Underdark and sometimes even some Call of Cthulhu campaigns going! I'm also building a massive homebrew world, which is the initial setting of our stream. I have my own version of Curse of Strahd, a revamped (pun intended) version that drastically expands on the official 5E campaign to include layers upon layers of original content based from the Ravenloft modules and gazetteers of the 2nd and 3.5 editions. Above all, however, is my will to make sure you have the best time possible during our game! Immersion is key to telling a story and I guarantee that with my DMing and the tools I use - creative plots, fully fleshed out settings and NPCs, engaging descriptions, animated maps, image handouts, music and sound effects - you will have fun! If you'd like to join any of my games, please send me a message or a request!
