About the adventure
You stand on the deck of your spelljamming ship, even as explosions obliterate two of its masts and hurl a dozen of your fellow sailors into Wildspace! Distant stars and wheeling clouds of multicolored gas spin around you as the first pirate galleon slams into your starboard side, and a gust of foul wind washes over you as the galleon’s air envelope merges with your own. Seconds later, your vessel is boarded by astral reavers—humanoids possessed of strange features, waving cruel weapons, and unleashing blasts of magic. Your lies on the deck nearby, her body ruined by shrapnel. “Hold the top deck!” she snarls with her dying breath. “Grant them no quarter!” What do you do? Welcome to the wild world of Spelljammers. In this swashbuckling adventure, you’ll play a new recruit, learning the ropes of spacefaring. As you explore and learn to navigate your ship, you’ll come face-to-face with a brand new threat to Wildspace. Then, in Light of Xaryxis, you’ll fight off a group of desperate alien invaders, fleeing their dying star system. Characters will develop along the way with their own arcs, nestled within backdrop of the campaign. Players will start the campaign at level 1 and reach level 10 by adventure’s end. We'll use the Point Buy system for ability scores, milestones for leveling up, and take the average for hit points. This is a post at your own pace game over Discord. I'll check in three times every weekday. Players are asked to check in twice every weekday. Please reach out to me if you have questions.

About me
I cut my teeth on roleplaying with West End's Star Wars system at a young age. I quickly learned that RPGs were an awesome way to connect with people who have similar interests, and these games also scratch an artistic itch. When I'm not involved in something kind of geeky, I'm involved in something incredibly geeky--probably involving superheroes. I enjoy all things comics, Transformers, Science Fiction, and fantasy (especially when dice are involved). Despite each of these child-like addictions, my wife, Cindy, continues to love me in a super adult-like fashion. Also, I've published over 30 books, which you can see here: https://www.amazon.com/author/sevanparis
