About the adventure
I welcome Spectators to join my Discord server for free and see how I run games. Just send me a Message. >>> “Greetings, friends! If you’re watching this, it’s because I’ve experienced an unexpected shutdown—in organic terms, I’m dead.” This strange message invites our intrepid adventurers to Striving, an expansive megaplex city on Aballon, the planet of machines. There, they gather in a neon-lit establishment, surrounded by androids, robots, and aliens of all kinds, to meet an old friend. The bartender brings them refreshments—and a holographic recording from their mutual acquaintance, now dead. The discovery of their friend’s unexpected murder turns these strangers into a crew of unlikely investigators! They’ll need to outrun murderous robots, outwit clever foes, and analyze perplexing clues, all while wondering if they’re hunting the murderer, or if the murderer is hunting them. This is a short 2 level adventure starting at level 1 for up to 6 characters. >>> We'll be playing on Discord via Asynchronous Play-by-Post. Maps will be provided through Google Slides. The expectation is that you'll post at least once a day. I will post several times a day depending on what's happening. I put many hours into my Play-By-Post games each week so you're getting a much bigger commitment from me as the GM than you normally would in other PbP games that tend to have GMs that only post once per day.

About me
Hi there! My name is Joe and I live on the east coast near New York City in the US. Mainly experienced in D&D 5e, Pathfinder 2e, Starfinder 2e, and Legend of the Five Rings 4e, I'm an RPG veteran of 34 years and I have thousands of hours of experience, mostly DMing. Despite my experience, I'm only 46-years-young. My favorite thing about playing RPGs is role-playing, problem solving, combat, and planning. I often throw humor into my roleplaying and horror into my GMing. I love fantasy and science fiction books, movies, and TV. I play video games, mainly RPGs, and I'm 12-years married with a young son who loves gaming as much as I do. I have a two-year-old daughter too! Drop me a line and say hello. Good gaming!

What to expect
Preparing for the session
We'll be playing on Discord via Asynchronous Play-by-Post. Maps will be provided through Google Slides. The expectation is that you'll post at least once a day. I will post much more often than that. We'll occasionally take breaks when I'm on vacation and need a mental health break / technology detox for a week or two. You will need: - Discord account (free) - The ability to post on Discord at least once a day - Reliable internet connection - An eager and pleasant attitude and a desire to have fun
What togashi_joe brings to the table
I'll provide an organized Discord server with Bots (RPG Sage and Thread-Watcher), maps and tokens on Google Slides, official images for most NPCs, detailed descriptions with a passion for writing and improvisation, and an experience that focuses on players and fun first and foremost! I'll be posting on Discord several times a day depending on what's happening. I can also provide pre-gen characters from the boxed set.
