This poster seems like the lifeline you so desperately need. You read the title again. Wanted Brave Adventurers!

Warhammer Fantasy is a brutal, detailed and atmospheric system, a perfect reflection of the setting it's based in.

About me
Hi, I’m Tom, or Inq. I’ve been playing and GMing since the late ’90s, when a group of friends and I decided to try D&D for the first time. One of us bought the 3rd Edition Player’s Handbook, another grabbed the Monster Manual, and I picked up the DM’s Guide… which is how I accidentally started running my first game. It was an absolute mess, but we still had a blast and in time I've gotten better. And I’ve been running games ever since. Since then I’ve played and run dozens of systems and I don't know how many campaigns, some of them spanning years. I’ve built homebrew worlds, run games in established settings, and taken groups through published modules. Over time, even though I still feel like an amateur, enough players have convinced me that I might actually be pretty good at this. For me these games we play are about story and fun above everything else. If a rule gets in the way of a great moment, we find a way around it. The best campaigns are the ones where everyone gets to leave their mark and shaping the story, the world, and the adventure.

Creating your character
We will follow standard WFRP4e creation rules. This means you will roll a random character, including random race and career. If you keep this character you get to begin with bonus XP. If you don't like the character you rolled you get options to reroll, or even simply pick your character, though this means you start with less or no XP
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Planning to use Discord for voice, so you need to have an account. We'll be using Foundry VTT which you don't need an account for.
What Tom brings to the table
VTT, music and a pretty in depth knowledge of the world. If you're new to WFRP I'm happy to teach you the basics, and if you're new to Warhammer Fantasy I'm more than happy to talk your ear off about the setting lore.
Homebrew rules
I use group advantage. No PvP without the consent of all parties.
