About the adventure
This Tale takes place on a peninsula, where a handful of clans fight for supremacy. The geography consists of eleven medium-sized islands with a mixture of expansive jungle terrain, turquoise beaches and Snow-peak mountains (Inspired by New Zealand), populated by two dozen villages, some small encampments and a single large port city. Populated by varying peoples and creatures of countles shapes and sizes. This will be the sandbox you and your co-players find yourselves in. Our story begins on the Western most island in the fishing village Idrija, its inhabitants tired from the day's labours are all but asleep and in the stillness of the night, a Titan rises from the deep blue. An uncanny & unprecedented foe, not seen for decades sets its gaze upon the village. Sidenotes: - strong focus on player's backstories (if provided) - session zero is free of charge - viable for new or experienced players - the focus of the game is dialogue between players and interacting with the many obstacles the world hurdles at you If you have any questions, feel free to message me! Best regards
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.
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.

Additional details
How to prepare
You need to create a standard level 2 character - details on session 0 or via Discord.
What I provide
There will be occasional ambient music during the game, which you can remove at any time. Combat is violent and fast, and likely not present every session - encounters take a max of 35 min, with the exception of tougher fights, those can last an hour.
