About the adventure

Survival! Mystery! Prehistoric Beasts! Players take on the role of everyday people who are brave and competent, but also in over their head. The game is designed to help you create the kind of stories that are full of action and suspense, but in which fighting is rarely a good option. Will you escape with your life? And what kind of person will you become in your quest to survive? There’s only one way to find out…

About me

I love running games for my friends and want to meet new people. My ideal role playing game experience is one part puzzle, one part strategy, and one part silly. Obsessed with Fallout, Elder Scrolls, and pretty much anything set in space.

Character creation

Creating your character

All Player character creation will happen during the session.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

We chat over Discord, we roll dice over Roll20.

What Tom brings to the table

Lights, camera, action! This is collaborative storytelling scenario. You will not only create your own characters, you'll also make major decisions about the narrative that we're about to experience. This game is fun to play, but hard to survive. Don't get too attached to your character! Unlike life, if your character dies on Dino Island, you can always make a new one who just happens to show up the next scene.

Homebrew rules

We'll be playing based on the standard Escape from Dino Island rules. Escaping the Island will require teamwork and clever decision making. Some actions can be taken without needing any roll, but when rolls are required they'll typically be two 6 sided die, modified by the stat being used. Stats are Fit, Clever, and Steady.
