About the adventure
A legendary weapon has been stolen. You're sworn to retrieve it. This campaign is built for beginners and built for character. Learn through play with a GM who cares more about your relationships, your oaths, and your growth than complex mechanics. Your choices shape everything. Based on the bestselling novels by Brandon Sanderson. The storm hits at nightfall. You press your back against rain-slick stone as lightning cracks overhead, watching the others in your party debate the next move. The scholar argues for patience. The soldier wants to press forward. And you? You're thinking about the oath you swore three days ago, the one that changed everything. This is a world where the promises you make have weight. Where a quiet moment comforting a frightened ally might unlock powers that charging into battle never could. You'll manipulate gravity, craft devices from storm-charged gemstones, and forge bonds with spirits drawn to who you are and who you're becoming. I'll provide everything you need to understand the world before session one. Just show up ready to play. This campaign is built for beginners and built for character. Learn through play with a GM who cares more about your relationships, your oaths, and your growth than complex mechanics. Your choices shape everything. Ready to weather the storm?

About me
I am an entertainer at heart, whether that is on a stage, in a band or with you at the table. The games that I run build on my history as a musician, actor, designer and engineer. I love building systems that encourage creativity of both myself and my players. Layer by layer, I build complex living worlds full to the brim with adventure and mystery for players to explore and enjoy. I write and run games for people. Every person that joins one of my games is a unique contributor that brings something special. My goal as a GM is to help you, the player, play the game you want to play. To enjoy playing a character that speaks to you. Don't see a listing that speaks to you? Send me about a custom game in the Cosmere or another system you would like to try.

How Elias creates a safe table
Become familiar with the game and you fellow players in session 0. This special session is your introduction to the game and your fellow players and GM. We take breaks! Halfway through each session and whenever you are feeling a little overwhelmed we take a 15 minute break. At the start of the game fill out a convenient form to let the game master know what you are and aren't okay with in the game. This sets the game master up to be aware of your boundaries and keep the game fun for everyone. These games are a safe space for non native English speakers.
