About the adventure
Fellhunters Bands of mercenary monster hunters protect the common folk from creatures of the Dark as members of the Fellhunter's Guild. Sponsored, in part, by the Church of the Five-Fold Sun, and chartered by the Crown, they use any means necessary to get the job done...even, sometimes, the dark arts of their enemies. World and Era: A world much like our own, a pseudo European dark fantasy setting with early firearms, roughly equivalent to the early 17th century, ruled over by the puritanical Church of the Five-Fold Sun...a religion with a golden pentagram , single point upright, as its symbol, representing the five ancient solar deities that the Church reveres as faces of the One True God. Based mainly in German and Dutch myth and folklore. Inspired by such media as Van Helsing, Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, Brothers Grimm, Season of the Witch, the Witcher. A world of folk and faerie tale horror, where the monsters are sometimes not as bad as the men.

About me
I’m a military veteran (a long time ago), a father of several wonderful children, and an amateur mythologist, poet, and philosopher. I've been playing and running games for 42 years, a partial list of which is on my home page. I’m here to run games, and make that as easy and fulfilling as possible. Wanna see what I bring to the table? https://www.ofgodsandgamemasters.com/ and https://www.youtube.com/@OfGodsandGamemasters for my written work, my voice work, and my actual plays. I can run nearly any game, and that flexibility and wide knowledge improves all my games. I build deep, intense, and well-realized worlds, but my games and stories are player and player character driven and focused. I'll be glad to work with your table to create a custom setting and adventures that are absolutely bespoke and tailored to you!

Creating your character
We will create 250 point exceptionally competent (mostly) human Fellhunters together in the first session. I like to do it that way to make sure characters have ties to each other and gel well.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Webcam, mic. We'll make characters together. Dice will be on app. You don't need to know the rules to start, I can teach you. Be prepared to get intense.

Safety
How Jack (Of Gods and Gamemasters) creates a safe table
You'll get a copy of the checklist from me and we can go over what to straight up avoid. Session zero will cover safety tools and expectations from the game. Even though we'll be using GURPs, we'll be using cinematic options and not the full tactical system, so expect fast, hyper-action play, with a very dark edge.
