About the adventure
First session Free! Imagine your tenth birthday arrives—that pivotal moment every child in our region dreams about. But for you, there's no cheerful professor waiting with a starter Pokémon and a speech about friendship. Instead, you receive an unmarked envelope containing a sleek black card with coordinates to Viridian City Gym and these words: "Your potential exceeds the ordinary path. A different journey awaits." In this campaign, you'll make choices that challenge the established order, build power through unconventional means, and discover that the line between ambition and ruthlessness isn't always clear. Your potential has caught the attention of influential people. People who see the flaws in a system that hands weapons to children and calls it tradition. People who understand that true greatness requires breaking rules, not following them. The question isn't whether you'll receive your first Pokémon—it's what you're willing to do once you have it. Are you ready to walk a different path?

About me
I'm Colette, a Dungeon Master and published author with a passion for interactive storytelling. For the past 15, I've been crafting immersive D&D 5e and TTRPG experiences that put players at the center of their own epic tales. My approach to DMing combines creative worldbuilding with a deep respect for player agency. I believe that tabletop RPGs shine brightest when everyone at the table contributes to the unfolding narrative. While I'm a laid back person most of the time, when I'm passionate about something, as with tabletop gaming, I can become quite fixated. Reliability is central to my professional ethos. In my years of DMing, I've maintained a consistent schedule with my groups, almost never missing a session and always providing advance notice when rare scheduling conflicts arise. When I'm not behind the DM screen, I'm often working on my creative projects. My experience as a published author informs my approach to campaign narratives, character development, and world lore. I'm part of LGBTQ+ community and committed to creating a welcoming table where all players can feel comfortable expressing themselves through their characters and storytelling contributions. Whether you're seeking heroic adventures, morally complex narratives, or something uniquely tailored to your group's interests, I'm excited to collaborate with you on creating memorable gaming experiences that will keep you coming back for more.
