About the adventure
It's been a life. You've walked the same path for a while now, and although it's not always easy, it's been bearable. Come one morning, a reason to leave that path arrived. At first light, a song heralds you to depart from your haunt and to seek... something. The song has no words, only pure meaning, and it means to have you travel. That isn't so easy to do, however. The world of Pugna is vast, with no true measurement in record. From the highest Aether to the deepest Underdark, countless lives stir the river of fate. You exist in the middle, the Mortal Fields, where time buries empires and their remnants return anew bearing a different name. Everything drifts away eventually, be it crowns, domains, or even memories. There's something in the drifting that the song wants you to see. Against all odds, you follow the song. A new path has opened, and you soon start to drift away. Family, friends, homes, riches... They are all behind you now, and you only carry the skin on your back, what little you can fit in your bag, and the beckoning song at sunrise. Your adventure has begun. --- A PbP Game that will touch your heart and wrench it if given the chance.

About me
Welcome to my profile, bozo. Here, you'll find how my ECCENTRICITY stands as the foundation to my craft. I tried DnD in 2018, and within weeks, became the DM and have been cursed with this power since. My stories focus on the struggles of the character and the emotional turmoil that comes with them. In light we may see a paladin who blooms with righteousness, but in the dark, they are haunted by every soul they've claimed in the name of their God. My studies in psychology only deepens my interest in this kind of approach. Running games isn't just an avenue for me to display my writing; the stories that happen within my games are born from our interactions as fellow players. You are as much a writer as I am in the game. If you're the sort to enjoy seeing the growth of your character as a person, then take a seat. This table welcomes those who want to grow alongside the story, as both PC and Player. I've been DMing for over 7 years now, reaching my 8th. I hope to see more creative minds intermingle with mine, synapses exploding together to create heartshaking tales!

What to expect
Preparing for the session
We only need Discord for this. Aside from that, prepare a character with a story you want to explore deeply and emotionally.
What The Eccentric brings to the table
I will provide a rich, psychological story for you to explore the depths of your character. Together, we'll write a tale of growth, struggle, and wonder as your character confronts the turmoils of emotions, morality, and purpose. With my background in Psychology, I will delve into who youe character is, and we will explore their strengths and weaknesses.
Homebrew rules
We will have some modifications to the rules since we're using an Original setting. The most notable change will be Whispers turning into Verses, which are parts of the Song you hear. They can lead you to wondrous encounters.

How The Eccentric creates a safe table
We will employ lines and veils to establish our boundaries. By knowing our limits, we can then explore every other avenue to have a deep, heavy tale of introspection and light. We will alao discuss the events of the game to unwind and understand the current stance of the story so we can stay on the right path.
