About the adventure

BEGINNER/FIRST TIME PLAYER FRIENDLY!! For fans of post-apocalyptic horror, body horror, mysteries, and magical girls! ****Dive into a setting with horrifying creatures, where you are the last hope of humanity. Will you succeed in bringing hope, or ensure everyone’s despair? ****Solve the mystery of the monsters hunting humanity for decades! ****Engage in a lot of roleplaying, difficult combat, and a ton of teamwork! ABOUT: Around 50 years ago, monsters emerged from deep within the earth and ravaged all of the world. Humanity now exists within walled in cities that are surrounded by lights, the only deterrent against the creatures that attack the walls at night. Despite the horrors at their doorstep, everyone tries to continue their lives as if nothing ever happened. Mundanity is pervasive, if held sacred by most of society. One day, in the middle of a calamity, a group of young adults discover that they have been gifted with otherworldly powers. The world now waits and watches to see what they will do with their gifts. Will they find a way to eradicate the monsters that stalk humanity? Only time will tell.

About me

Hi! My name is Noah, Micah, and NoahMicah, you can choose whatever to call me. My pronouns are he/him/his and they/them/theirs and I am half Filipino. I have been GM-ing since 2020, beginning with a way too ambitious homebrewed D&D 5e original story that I still hold dear in my heart. I am an aspiring writer and, as such, I prioritize storytelling and making sure I incorporate as much of my players’ wants and desires for their characters as much as possible. The aspect of communal storytelling is what I love the most about GM-ing TTRPGs. This also includes making sure I make everyone feel comfortable and welcome, be that in ensuring boundaries are respected to incorporating players’ experiences and cultures in the story. I am very proud of my Filipino culture and include that in as many games as possible, so I extend that to my players too. I want to make sure everyone feels heard and has a ton of fun at the same time! Genres I tend to gravitate towards are horror, fantasy, science fiction, and modern/slice of life. Often, I blend one or two or three of these together. If you are looking for deep worldbuilding and a table where your voice is heard and listened to, come on in! I hold all my games on Discord and will provide you with a link when you sign up. I look forward to getting to know you!

Character creation

Creating your character

The first session we do together will focus on character creation since I want to tweak how players make characters for this campaign. I feel that the base way to make characters tends to be very limiting for this system, so I want to try to circumvent that in order to make sure players feel powerful.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

You will need a Discord account in order to play. You will also need a microphone. Other than that, you don't need to download anything else. Maybe find a site for online dice if you do not have two d6s.

What Noah Micah brings to the table

I focus on roleplaying first and foremost, and when combat does happen, I make it as challenging as possible to make it feel rewarding and to inspire players to think of creative solutions. I also do this to encourage players to brainstorm ideas together, I want to encourage teamwork and sharing the spotlight by doing this. While I mostly follow the system's rules, I will always value rewarding player creativity and story over the rules.

Safety

How Noah Micah creates a safe table

I will discuss possible triggering things that will happen in this campaign during session 0. I will also send all players a link to a Lines and Veils document of things that may come up that you can answer you do not want included in the campaign or you are fine with allusions to in the campaign. During the game, if something comes up that I did not account for in the document, please say or type "line" or "veil" and I will adjust accordingly. After every session there will also be time to unwind and talk about how we feel, along with a break during every session. NOTE: Sexual assault will NEVER be included in my games, and I do not tolerate players that try to include that. I also do not allow homophobia, transphobia, sexism, racism, or any other hateful behavior at my table.
