About the adventure
The scream of a railgun slug tears the air, an instant before it vaporizes a hulking supernatural horror. Nearby, energy weapons sizzle, carving arcs of light through the perpetual twilight. A super-powered warrior smashes through a concrete barrier, leaving a trail of debris, while a mystic incants, weaving threads of raw magic drawn from the very fabric of the fractured world. Across the battlefield, a psionic warrior unleashes a mind-shattering attack, bending reality with mental force alone. This is the Megaverse of Rifts – and your journey is about to begin. Imagine a post-apocalyptic world not just recovering, but violently reborn. A place where the remnants of technological empires clash with burgeoning supernatural horrors, all vying for mastery. Unpredictable "Rifts"—holes in the very fabric of space and time—gash open without warning, spilling forth unimaginable creatures, ancient beings, and catastrophic dangers from countless dimensions. Whatever you imagine—whatever you fear—it’s somewhere on this war-and-chaos ravaged world, a testament to the boundless, terrifying possibilities. In this maelstrom of magic and metal, hope flickers in the form of the Tomorrow Legion. They are the last bastion against the encroaching madness, a desperate rallying point for the greatest, the bravest, and yes, the craziest souls who dare to dream of a future better than the broken past they’ve known. They stand against an infinity of threats, tirelessly battling for survival, forging alliances between beings from across the dimensional spectrum. And now, they need you. Rifts is a multi-genre role-playing game that captures the imagination unlike any other. It’s a universe where magic, horror, and the supernatural not only coexist with science, high technology, and the ordinary, but blend into something utterly unique and thrilling. With countless dimensions at play, anything and everything is truly possible. Here, your imagination is the only true limit to the adventures you can embark upon. Are you ready to wield a plasma rifle in one hand and a spellbook in the other? To pilot a giant robot one moment and consult a psychic oracle the next? Then prepare to answer the call. DM-Paul is your experienced guide into the Savage Worlds of Rifts, ready to lead you or your group (4-6 characters) through unparalleled journeys on Foundry VTT. Whether you're a seasoned veteran of the Megaverse or a fresh recruit eager to learn the ropes, DM-Paul welcomes all levels of player experience.

My Journey to the DM's Chair My journey began at the tender age of eleven, when I received the Dungeons and Dragons Red Basic Box set, complete with the Keep on the Borderlands module, as a birthday gift. I poured over those pages, and soon, my childhood friends and I embarked on a summer-long quest. It was then I discovered my true calling: I find immense joy in crafting worlds and watching players' characters grow and evolve within the adventures I present. Since those early days, I've had the privilege of introducing hundreds of new players to the enchanting world of D&D. My expertise isn't limited to a single system; I've run over fifty different role-playing games, from Aliens to Traveler, Rifts to Gamma World, and D&D 1st Edition through to D&D 5th Edition. My Philosophy on Adventures At the heart of my approach is the belief that adventures are about the players – their stories, backgrounds, allies, and adversaries. My materials, whether published or custom-created, serve to guide, support, challenge, and ultimately reward you, the players. Let's Begin Your Epic Adventure! If you're seeking a skilled Professional Game Master for your Dungeons and Dragons game (Basic, Advanced, or 5th Edition), or another beloved RPG system, I invite you to look no further. Don't hesitate to reach out to discuss custom campaigns, form a new group, or explore one of my posted games. Warm regards, Dungeon Master Paul

Creating your character
DM Paul’s onboarding service: As part of DM Paul’s onboarding service and to demonstrate my commitment to the players who join my games, you will receive two complimentary onboarding meetings, each lasting between 30 to 45 minutes. These sessions are designed to ensure compatibility between the Player and the Dungeon Master in terms of play styles, while also establishing clear expectations. In essence, you will have a comprehensive understanding of what to anticipate before investing your gold coins. Below is a detailed outline of DM Paul’s onboarding process for your consideration. Meeting 1 • The Player and Dungeon Master will convene on Discord to discuss a series of 20 RPG-related questions and answers, setting expectations for the game. This serves as an introductory meeting to foster rapport and determine if we share similar gaming philosophies. • The Player and Dungeon Master will collaborate on character creation and background review, establishing a timeline for character submission for evaluation, uploading, and testing on my server. • I will provide a brief demonstration of my services using Foundry, showcasing combat mechanics and effects. Meeting 2 • Connect your character to my server. • Choose your color. • Select your dice. • Receive a custom introductory narrative for the adventure, tailored to your character's background. • Engage in a brief encounter that seamlessly integrates your character into the storyline as the game night commences. By offering this complimentary custom onboarding service prior to a paid game night, DM Paul aims to cultivate your ideas and concepts for your character, weaving them into the adventure. This approach also creates a unique and mysterious background for each player to roleplay, in contrast to group-generated backgrounds where everyone is privy to each other's secrets and histories.
The World Ended. Then It Got Violently Reborn. Forget the quiet recovery. This isn't your grandpappy's desolate wasteland. Our world didn't just survive the apocalypse; it got violently reborn. Here, the crumbling edifices of forgotten technological empires clash with a tide of burgeoning supernatural horrors, each vying for dominion over a shattered reality. But the true terror? The Rifts. Gaping, unpredictable holes in the very fabric of space and time that tear open without warning. They vomit forth unimaginable creatures, ancient beings, and catastrophic dangers from countless, impossible dimensions. Whatever you can conjure, whatever impossible fear lurks in your deepest nightmares – it’s here, somewhere in this ceaseless maelstrom of magic and metal, a terrifying testament to boundless, chaotic possibilities. Against this encroaching cosmic madness, a flicker of hope endures: The Tomorrow Legion. We are the last bastion, a desperate rallying point for the bravest, the brightest, and yes, the gloriously insane. We stand against an infinity of threats, tirelessly battling for survival, forging alliances between beings from across the dimensional spectrum. And now, we need you. This isn't merely a game; it's a shared odyssey, a collaborative narrative hand-crafted by friends. We're not just seeking players; we're searching for enthusiastic, committed individuals eager to immerse themselves in a rich, living story, contribute to its unfolding legend, and share unforgettable moments (and perhaps a few delightful screams!) with a dedicated, supportive crew.

He's personally connecting with all aspiring heroes for a relaxed, free Discord "Meet and Greet." It’s not an audition; it’s an opportunity to chat, discuss incredible character concepts, and ensure a seamless integration into our burgeoning legend. Don't just observe the coming darkness – help us fight it. Come hang out, roll some dice, and take this Grand Adventure to its true, glorious potential. Your legend awaits!

What DM Paul brings to the table
My table offers a campaign-driven and heavy combat, deep storyline play style where all adventurers are welcome, from fresh-faced beginners to seasoned veterans. Forget the hassle of subscriptions; I provide a self-hosted Foundry Virtual Tabletop, entirely free to players, ensuring a seamless digital experience. Discord serves as our central hub for both immersive audio storytelling and clear text communication, fostering a vibrant community. Above all, I cultivate a safe and respectful social atmosphere, where every voice is heard and valued. Prepare for a richly immersive experience that blends Theatre of the Mind with robust Digital Play support. You'll engage in collaborative and intuitive storytelling, where the narrative isn't just mine, but ours. Your character's journey will be deeply personal, woven with relevant stories about their past and future. I strive to bring Rifts to life through vivid sensory detail: Sight painted with descriptive language, Foundry VTT maps, and Discord imagery; Sound underscored by ambient music, descriptive cues, and Foundry VTT effects; and yes, while not a professional voice actor, I genuinely enjoy doing voices and will dive into character to enhance the experience. Gameplay is robust and varied. Expect thrilling exploration across diverse locations, challenging terrain, and dynamic weather hazards. Combat is balanced, strategic, and descriptive, expertly executed on Foundry VTT. We’ll delve into mystery and horror, both balanced and tailored to character-specific arcs. And yes, comedy will naturally arise or be incorporated when a module gleefully calls for it. My approach to rules runs as written, with any pre-agreed house rules clearly communicated. We’ll tackle written modules, but always with thoughtful character story integration. You'll have access to all current Savage Rifts Foundry VTT game materials, and for those who love the classics, access to most Rifts original game materials, with conversion upon special request.
