About the adventure
A journey that begins with the published Bridge Nine adventure and then breaks free into a wide-open campaign fully directed and created by your choices! This campaign welcomes everyone: longtime Cosmere fans, Cosmere newcomers, TTRPG veterans, and absolute beginners alike. —- Roshar is a world shaped by storms and scarred by endless war. You live among bridge crews and soldiers, scouts and scholars. When a fierce highstorm uncovers ruins hidden deep within the Shattered Plains, you become part of a daring expedition sent to explore it. But fate strikes cruelly, leaving you lost beneath towering cliffs, trapped within a maze of chasms. But something within you stirs. As danger closes in and survival hangs by a thread, mysterious Spren begin to take notice. Ancient secrets permeate the ruins, the stories and myths of fallen heroes long vanished, the Knights Radiant, protectors who once guarded this world, then turned their backs on it in its greatest time of need. This adventure invites you to embrace danger, disaster, and the call of something greater. Choices matter, bravery is tested, and each step takes you closer to discovering who you are meant to be. Accept these latent gifts, or defiantly reject them; the choice is yours. But one thing is certain: the Knights Radiant must stand again, and your legend awaits. — This campaign features: ⚡ A beginner-friendly and safe table. Perfect for newcomers to TTRPGs, the Cosmere RPG, or the Stormlight setting, with a GM who excels at teaching new players while keeping the story flowing. ⚡ GM with 10+ years of experience, who has been running the Cosmere RPG since its beta release, and a longtime Cosmere reader with encyclopedic knowledge of the setting. ⚡ Player and narrative-driven gameplay where your choices will shape the world and the story around you. ⚡ Personally curated playlists for every scene and location. ⚡ Artwork for every NPC and location, bringing Roshar to life. Journey into the chasms today and begin your adventure across Roshar!

About me
Hello! I am a 33-year-old GM of 10+ years who primarily runs the Cosmere RPG! I’ve been GMing since the beta release and I love the Cosmere. In my free time, you will find me on 17th Shard or the Coppermind wikis, or rereading Stormlight. If you’re a hardcore fan, you’ll find a GM who shares that passion. If you’re new, you’re just as welcome and i could not be more stoked to share this with you. Together we’ll tell a story that is as fantastic and heroic as the books while still being uniquely your own!

Creating your character
✍️ We’ll create characters together during Session 0. ✍️ Before our first session, you’ll need to sign up for Demiplane. Feel free to browse around and see what excites you. ✍️ Full access to Cosmere RPG content will be shared with you during Session 0, but feel free to start forming ideas ahead of time. ✍️ No homebrew classes or features will be used, all character options must come from officially supported content available on Demiplane.
What to expect
Preparing for the session

(Safari is not supported.) 💻 A decent and stable internet connection to a ensure smooth session. 💻 Quality audio input, such as a headset or a good microphone. Please avoid using speakers or built-in laptop mics, as they often cause echo or poor audio quality. 💻 Discord (free to download or use via browser) for voice communication. 💻 Demiplane account (free – no purchases necessary). Takes 1-2 mins to sign up. https://app.demiplane.com/auth/signin?returnTo=/home 💻 Forge account (free – used to access Foundry VTT, which is also free and browser-based for players). https://forge-vtt.com/signup 💻 Optional but encouraged: A webcam if you'd like to share video.

What Nerdyindeed (Geoff) brings to the table
☑️ A dedicated Discord server just for your game, where you can ask questions, coordinate with players, and keep the adventure alive between sessions. ☑️ A fully equipped virtual tabletop through FoundryVTT with soundscapes and ambient music, dynamic battle maps, and built-in character tracking and progression. ☑️ Real-time, in-game safety tools. ☑️ Open DMs in between sessions. I will be available via discord DM and will make it a point to be as accessible as possible for players outside of sessions. I will usually reply within a day if not sooner. ☑️ A Demiplane account with access to all required shareable content for the Cosmere RPG, available to players at no cost. ☑️ Experience. I have run a ton of games and use that experience to provide games that value spontaneity, player choice, and variety. ☑️ Consistency. Games run when scheduled. If a player or two can’t make it, one-shot content can be run instead. If half or more players are unavailable, the group can vote on whether to skip the session or run the alternate content.
Homebrew rules
🎲 The game will be run mostly rules as written, with only one optional homebrew addon. 🎲 I provide an optional set of choices for the Plot Die system that grant players greater narrative control when an Opportunity is rolled. 🎲 These options aren’t additional rules, but structured prompts with light mechanics to illustrate what a “Change the Narrative” moment could look like. They serve as inspiration and a jumping-off point for players to creatively influence the scene. 🎲 The rules-as-written Plot Die mechanics are always available and can be used at any time.
