About the adventure
The city of Blackbottom is about to suffer a massive blow, and it needs a group of heroes that will rise to the occasion: fend off hordes of demons, save its citizens and find a way out of this massive mess! Whether you're an experienced DRAW STEEL player, or you're eager to learn about it, this adventure will for sure be one you won't forget. If you haven't played this system yet, DRAW STEEL is a mix of heroic fantasy with deep, tactical combat, while ensuring there's very little to no "dead turns". There's no missing attacks or getting stunned for a round unable to do anything, because we want you having cool moments as often as possible!

About me
Hey! My name is Tomas, but you can call me Cas. I'm a 30-year old guy from Argentina, and I've been running tabletop RPGs for almost 9 years now, both pre-written modules and entirely self-made ones. I love making interesting combat encounters, puzzles, magic treasures and cinematic moments for the characters to shine and feel cool!

Creating your character
If you're an experienced player, then feel free to create your own level 1 character! We will discuss a few details before we begin so you can better tailor your choices. If you're not yet familiar with DRAW STEEL, then no worries, we'll make your first character together! You can have a concept in mind beforehand and we translate it into mechanical terms, or you can browse the possibilities and pick based on what you think you'd enjoy the most.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
This short campaign will be played using the Codex, Draw Steel's official VTT. If the group does not have keys, I will provide them, but you will still need to have Steam to download the VTT. We will also meet up in a Discord server that I've created for chatting.
What Cas brings to the table
• Combat encounters with more depth than just "Kill them all!" • Custom-made montage tests and scenes • Unique treasures and titles designed for the adventure • Plenty of opportunities to have cool, heroic moments • Voiced NPCs (at the best of my ability) • Immersive music and ambience

How Cas creates a safe table
We're here to enjoy ourselves and have fun, so any situation which would diminish those things is something I actively want to avoid. Feel free to speak up or message me in private if you feel it's too much and we can work together to make the scene better for everyone involved. We'll go over common triggers and what situations to avoid before we begin playing, however, to try to reduce those situations to a minimum. On top of that, everyone can always take a break if needed as well (as long as you notify me beforehand).
