About the adventure

Space ... the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Valkyrie. Its mission: to explore strange new worlds; to seek out new life and new civilizations; to boldly go where no one has gone before! The Valkyrie, with a new captain and fresh new crew, sets out on its first mission. To locate, investigate and recover (if necessary) the U.S.S. Alcubierre, a test-bed for a new type of warp drive, that has not been heard from in quite some time (beginner's module). This will lead to further missions and further shenanigans as the crew forges relationships and cements their place in Starfleet history.

About me

So a little about me. I have been playing TTRPGs since the late 80's, starting with DnD 2e. Since then, I have played other systems such as Werewolf, 13th Age, Shadowrun, Pathfinder, Star Trek, Star Wars, Fallout and Witcher. I started being a DM around 20 years ago. The campaigns that I run are complete sandbox and are character-centric, where the actions of the characters will have an impact (both positive and negative) on the world around them. I have been called a 'high maintenance' GM because I go above and beyond and ask a lot of questions. I will put as much into the campaign and your character's story as you do. If you want to acquire an ability, item, etc, I will work with you to craft a story around it and make it happen during the session or a side session. My table is open to anyone regardless of gender, culture or race and as a LGBTQ+ ally I provide an open and inviting table for all who wish to play. I run all types of games and entertain to my players and what they want, but you will find a very good mix of RP, combat and puzzles. I will always work with the players to find out their needs so that everyone gets the most out of playing.

Character creation

Creating your character

SESSION 0 WILL BE A FREE SESSION This is a 1ed Star Trek Adventures campaign, therefore, any official sourcebooks are acceptable. Character creation will take place during Session 0. Pregenerated characters will also be available to choose. Each player will create and maintain two characters, a main character and a secondary character. Occasionally, there will be circumstances where main characters are otherwise busy, so the secondary character will be used. Other situations may arise, such as the main characters are on an away team and an issue arises with the starship in orbit.

The current party

Ship Roles -- These are the roles available for both Main and Secondary characters. Not all roles need to be filled, however, one character per role is allowed. For example, there does not necessarily need to be a Captain or XO PC, but only one there can only be one character (either PC or NPC) of that role. Roles such as Communications or Science Officer will have multiple characters in that role, but only one PC character will be allowed. * Captain * Executive Officer (XO) * Chief Engineer * Chief Medical Officer * Chief of Security * Communications Officer * Flight Controller * Operations Manager * Science Officer * Ship's Councelor

What to expect

Preparing for the session

A private discord server will be created for this campaign, which will be used for communication and voice, so you will need to have a Discord account. Games will utilize FoundryVTT, but are hosted on The Forge. A free Forge account will also be required. https://forge-vtt.com/

What LordEggNutz (Jeremy) brings to the table

As a GM, I create custom sandbox games that are character centric, meaning that your characters actions affect the world around them. The actions, both good and bad, past and present, will have future implications. Your character's backstory will be used against them. Things your character says and does during sessions, or anything else deemed as "in character" may or may not be used as well. As a GM, I feel it is my job to work with everyone that is at the table to create a great story. I am open to working with nearly any concept and any type of story, all I ask is that we work together. I have been called a 'high maintenance' GM because I go above and beyond and ask a lot of questions. I will put as much into the campaign and your character's story as you do. If you want to acquire an ability, item, etc, I will work with you to craft a story around it and make it happen during the session or a side session. I provide Character Creation Clinics where I help with the following * Assistance with creating and fleshing out characters. * Character advancement planning * I allow players to make minor changes (the concept must remain the same) after a few sessions of playing. For example, if you decide to shift a few skills around or decide that the feat you originally chose just doesn't fit after all. They can be swapped out for others that fit the core concept better. I do believe in the Rule of Cool and the statement "Live by the Dice, Die by the Dice. All of my combat rolls are open and visible. You will see the rolls and the damage taken. I also create custom maps; city/town maps, regional maps, world maps and battlemaps are all custom made.

Homebrew rules

Currently, there are no homebrewed rules for this campaign. However, this is subject to change and rules may be created or changed as the campaign progresses.

Safety

How LordEggNutz (Jeremy) creates a safe table

First and Foremost. My table is open to all and hate has no place here. I am an LGBTQIA+ ally and you are welcome and safe. I will NOT tolerate any personal attacks against players. Any such actions will result in immediate removal. I will go over additional details during Session 0, including my open door policy and the usage of Lines and Veils adn X,N,O cards. There are some topics that will never occur in any of my games. * Sexual assault of any kind * Violence against children -- children may die during the course of gameplay, but only the result of such action, such as stumbling over their bodies. Their actual deaths will be done behind the scenes. * Any real-world topics revolving around politics, sexual identity, homo/transphobia, etc will not be present. * IRL racism -- Fantasy racism, such as hatred of klingons, will still be present in some degree. If topics or subjects occur that you are not comfortable with, then please let me know and I will change things. There will be no judgements, reprisals or any other negative impact in any way shape or form.
