About the adventure
Currently playing - Call of Cthulhu: Darkness Beneath. In this campaign, we'll play tabletop games from the Basic Roleplaying Family Tree: Call of Cthulhu, Delta Green, and Mothership, all of which feature fragile humans who are trying to deal with mind-shattering truths around them. Instead of superhuman power fantasy, these games are down-to-earth portrayals of people in difficult situations. The power of the character in these games comes from the creative use of limited resources, and far from being hack-and-slash, players can instead learn to trust their own problem-solving skills and ideas as they untangle spooky mysteries. Groups who enjoy these games typically enjoy story-first (rather than mechanics-first) play. They frequently enjoy roleplaying, solving mysteries, and exploration more than combat.

About me
Hi - I've been a professional gamemaster for five years with kids between 8 and 18... but some of my players are aging out! I'm hosting games for teens and adults so we can keep playing together.
