About the adventure

You will begin this game as a squire, a trainee to a particular knight of the order and will work your way quickly into joining the fight against evil. You will travel to far off lands. Often entire new worlds, to gain allies and resources for the orders constant fight against those that would consume or destroy without end. You will be expected to honor chivalry and selflessness, even in the most dire of moments. Your foes will range from beasts of incredible size, to your peers; with hearts tainted by greed and desire. You will help raise communities to prosperity and lay low any who would dare strike against the innocent. Against it all, you will be asked to make the ultimate sacrifice to save all you swore to protect and uphold. Such is the mind, the journey and the duty of a Gunslinger Knight.

About me

I love ttrpgs and i love how you can bring strangers together to enjoy a second life. Make them writers, gamers and thespians all at once through this awesome hobby. My goal when i run games is to offer Adventure to different strange and wonderful lands, Creative and thoughtful combat scenes where rules assist the narrative, not ride against it and Life sim events and choices to allow the players to get invested in the narrative at their preferred paced. My go to system is Cypher, as it is setting free with dice mechanics i find allow for a lot of creative and mechanical thinking you don't always see in this space. Plus, being able to play a magic samurai and a techno cowboy in the same campaign, is just awesome.

Character creation

Creating your character

We will have a session 0 for character set up, where i will present and guide you through the materials. This is because Cypher really encourages players to build with one another and bend/flex the rules to cator to the story you wanna tell. After, we will have 2 sessions of proper gameplay for free, to let you try things out.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

.Computer and Network for VTT and Voice Call .Microphone. Inexpensive is fine but try to control background noise and static .Ideas. Whether a detail backstory or a concept for a character, just have something you wanna explore and break down.

Safety

How Joshua Hitz (BasilStrikes) creates a safe table

I'll provide links to a fillable form from Monte Cooks safety gaming, so we can have an idea of what is and isn't doable for you the players. I work off of not all wrongs are created equally. Mistakes will be addressed but expected to be forgiven or given grace. However, any malicious actions or words will be treated with far less chances to repeat. One the moment for apology and understanding has been rejected, I will wield my right to remove you from my table.
