From the Fires: A Duet PBP Game - Choose your own adventure!
Fate Accelerated | Campaign
About the adventure
Brought to you by the Warlock Sanctum Collaboration. **Magic Flows from The Breath** Welcome to our high-magic world! Everyone in Agorath feels The Breath in one way or another. It shapes how you dream. How you fight. How you love. Some channel it with practiced focus. Others shape it through passion or pain. It’s not exclusively used by spellcasters either. It is used by weavers, masons, gunslingers, chefs, and musicians. Magic fuels creation, invention, and ambition. The Breath is untamed and there is always a cost for those who delve too far into its wild nature. Magic lives within everything and everyone can tap into its potential. You only need to extend your senses to find it! - Build without limits! Players can world-build as much or as little as they prefer. - Cast powerful magical spells you create sourced from the landscape around you! - Shape your world using The Breath in endless forms! The only limit to our story is your imagination. "It welcomes you into this world and will be the last thing you do when you depart." Our adventure will follow your character's custom story with the help of a GM-played sidekick. Price is $50 for 1-player games and $80 for 2-player games. *Game charges are 3 out of 4 weeks per month.
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.
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.
Play By Post
Play By Post refers to a game in which players interact with the story through messages and text posts. These games are typically played asynchronously throughout the week, which gives players time to consider what they want to do next, and engage with the story at their own pace.
This game is Asynchronous play by post. We post at your pace. Generally, players post once per day or more and the GM will post 1x per day to move the story forward. Saturdays are a day off. Players are not charged until the story has begun and characters are created. “Inactive” players will be charged for the full week and unresponsive players will be removed from the game after two weeks of inactivity, prior to being charged again.
