About the adventure
Across the sub-zero sea, miles and miles away from the nearest inhabited area, sits the lonely base of Shelf Rock, not so lovingly monikered "The Crypt" by those who have inhabited it before. Some say it's called that because it's so boring it's torture, with only a scant few ships coming through at all. Others says it's because dark things happened there, and it's sent stronger men screaming into the frozen air. Only one thing's for sure: several months into your assignments and in the dead of winter, The Crypt is stirring, and the only way out is frozen solid.
Game style
Roleplay Heavy
“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
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.

Gameplay details
I follow strict rules in terms of keeping my games safe for everyone involved. Separate forms are sent out to each player to better grasp their boundaries, and whose boundaries are what will not be shared. Aftercare is discussed as to what levels everyone thinks they made need. Lines of communication on safety tools are always open, and I will remove content that is triggering or uncomfortable without any questions asked. As a rule, I do not allow any of the following at my table: racism, homophobia, transphobia, antisemitism, islamophobia, or xenophobia. There are considerably more things I can add to that list, but in the interest of brevity: don't be discriminatory. I will check you on it.
