About the adventure

-> TLDR: This campaign is about broken legends and rising lunatics trying to reclaim a world already lost to profit, progress, and creeping cosmic rot. It’s ideal for players who enjoy dark fantasy, open-world chaos, arena showdowns, wild character creation, and apocalyptic mystery wrapped in heavy metal style. -> Experience a world where the last embers of myth smolder beneath soot-stained skies, and the only heroes left are leather-clad mercs with sponsors and stage names. While cities burn coal and coin in equal measure, something alien slithers between dreams and dimensions—watching, whispering, waiting. -> What to expect as a player: 🔹 Forge the remnants of a legend or rise as a reluctant savior through a lifepath system shaped by a fallen age. 🔹 Immerse yourself in a gritty, smoke-choked world handcrafted at the table, where myth is memory and progress devours magic. 🔹 Uncover a lurking cosmic threat as mindflayers and horrors beyond reality start tearing through the world’s fragile sanity. 🔹 Make choices in a morally fractured society that has traded ideals for machines, and faith for factories. 🔹 Discover that even in the darkest age, when reality frays and gods are dust, someone must still choose to stand. -> This campaign will begin on an evening of events and squalor. A celebration and show unlike any other. When the headlining band pulls out unexpectedly, your ragtag group must take their place at center stage and face a crowd hungry for spectacle and blood. This is your chance at stardom, do not disappoint them...

About me

Hello there! I'm Kenny, an experienced professional and full-time gamemaster. With a background in creative writing (B.A.), game design (A.A.), and certifications in narrative design, I bring both structure and spontaneity to every session. I've also designed my own adventure paths, campaign settings, and mechanics, giving me a deep understanding of how story and mechanics can work hand-in-hand. My true passion lies in collaborative storytelling — weaving unforgettable adventures through improv, roleplay, and the dynamic systems of TTRPGs. Whether you're new to the table or a seasoned dice-roller, I’m here to help you explore new worlds, tell epic stories, and, most importantly, have a blast doing it.

What KT Beauchamp brings to the table

-> GAME FEEL & TONE ☑️ A gritty, mature high-fantasy experience with grounded realism and narrative depth. ☑️ Inspired by a compelling mixture of Kings of the Wyld & A Little Hatred (books)—expect serious themes, moral ambiguity, broken up by moments of dark humor and wacky hijinks. ☑️ Roleplay-first, danger-always. Tactical combat meets meaningful exploration and complex character interactions. ☑️ Warning: This world pulls no punches. Character death is on the table—know when to fight, and when to flee. -> GAMEPLAY & PLATFORM ☑️ Run on Foundry VTT, a dynamic and intuitive platform with modded support for smooth and cinematic gameplay. ☑️ Centralized through a fully moderated Discord server—complete with reference libraries, game updates, and community spaces. ☑️ Professionally made maps, rich narration, and living NPCs turn every village, ruin, or throne room into a place worth remembering. ☑️ Enhanced by soundscapes, music, and visual flair -> GAME TO GAME EXPERIENCE ☑️ The table is a collaborative writer’s room—bring your ideas, instincts, and character drama to life. ☑️ Cinematic combat and roleplay: Think in terms of scenes, arcs, and emotional payoff—every encounter is a story beat. ☑️ Expect deep roleplay with a diverse cast of NPCs, including fully realized romance and follower options. ☑️ Sessions are designed for inclusion, ensuring every player gets spotlight moments across exploration, interaction, and conflict. -> CAMPAIGN EXPERIENCE ☑️ Collaborative worldbuilding: Campaigns are shaped by the table. Vote on key aspects and create a world that feels personal and unique. ☑️ Start with Lifepath generation, tying your backstory into the setting from day one. Your character will have deep ties to this world and those within it. ☑️ Campaigns follow a tier-based “book” structure, allowing for epic arcs while maintaining full player agency. ☑️ Explore a sandbox world that reacts to your decisions, inspired by open-world RPGs like Skyrim and Elden Ring.

Safety

How KT Beauchamp creates a safe table

To ensure a safe and comfortable environment for all players, I use the following safety tools: ✅ A consent form all members of the group must complete. This will determine Lines & Veils ✅ Session zero to discuss concerns, boundaries, and themes before the game begins ✅ At least one 10-15 minute break in the middle of the session ✅ Open door policy. Contact me any time with questions or concerns ✅ In games of darker themes I enjoy running loose and humorous games when possible. The object of the game is to have fun. ___ --> What a player will experience in this Campaign | Rating out of five skulls | Roleplaying - 💀💀💀💀💀 Exploration - 💀💀💀💀 Tactics/Combat - 💀💀💀 Politics - 💀💀 Puzzles - 💀 RATING: R CONTENT WARNING: AGE OF MADNESS deals with dark and existential themes.
