About the adventure
Atop a black mountain peak is Grift. Stormy weather bettering the rocks day and night. True silence is an unachievable goal for the populace. The further you walk from the city the stranger the land gets. All that salt in the air must do things to the mind.... Of late, people wandering the wilds around Grift are not returning. Concerned family members are putting up missing posters with rewards in any form they can muster together. Little could they know the source of these vanishings is something strange, mind-shattering, and so very icky icky sticky. For the way has been prepared, the syringe's have been filled, and the doctor is in....

About me
I've been gaming for 18ish years. I got my start in the before times of 3.5e D&D, and slowly but steadily expanded into other systems. I run all sorts of games, with a focus on narrative flow, collaboration, and ease of play (very much not above heavily house-ruling out clunky mechanics).

Creating your character
Character creation in Mörk Borg is incredibly simple. Built to get you up and running in under 30 minutes. We will collaboratively create characters right at the start of the session, give them some gross quirks, and get right into the story. I have access to plenty and plenty of extra options for Mörk Borg so don't worry, I'm sure you'll find an archetype you like.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
All my players need is a Discord account, dice, a character sheet, and a willingness to get into the dirty, punk fantasy vibes. I will compile all players into my DMing Discord server. Should be a popping time.
What Seamus (shay-mus) Copland brings to the table
My style is very fluid. I'm focused far more on the experience than on the letter of the law. I respect story and rules, but I will be breaking the 4th wall. I use a lot of curated playlists. Each beat of the story will be convened both in narration, and in music. I also will be able to provide pdf's of a rule cheat sheet, and digital versions of the character sheet. Combat is focused on speed and damage. I will not be measuring hexes or anything like that.

How Seamus (shay-mus) Copland creates a safe table
If, during the course of the session, someone is made uncomfortable by something happening. We stop, we talk about it, change what we need to, and continue. I have made sure to label this Mothership mission with many warnings of gore and horror. So be warned once more: gore and horror. If someone is, and continues to be, a problem at the table. Refusing to not say things that create discomfort, they will not be returning to the game. I can offer a lot of leeway. But not for jerks.
