About the adventure
💔 Come, make yourself comfortable at the table and let's have some fun time together! 🌟Vibe Brave mice. Light-hearted banter. Freedom and acceptance. 🧙♂️Story You are a group of brave mice friends. Returning to your home village, you find the village square trampled by huge chicken feet. There is a strange new visitor and there are rumours of a fire-breathing monster. An anxious mayor is looking to you for help and guidance. You'll have - a say in what the setting looks like - exceptional freedom in choosing your actions - reason to laugh (and possibly cry, but mainly laugh) - incentive to interact with your fellow players ⚖️ The system Mausritter is a rules-light system that is easy to grasp and keep in mind. It is suitable for beginners and veterans alike. I will happily go with the story wherever the players take it. The focus will be on the narrative: precise tactical battles are not in the spirit of this game. 🧾Logistics We'll have a free Session 0 to discuss expectations, lines and veils, and to create characters. For the latter we'll use my specific process, which will ensure that you are familiar with the setting and are connected to the other players and characters. It's sort of magical 🕵️ We'll use cameras for an in-person feel, Discord for voice and Google Sheets for character sheets.

Creating your character
We will create characters together at the free Session 0. I will offer a standard set of numbers for those who don't want to roll. Character options can be chosen, they need not be determined by your rolls. I will provide the rulebook to help with character creation.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Please have a Discord account. I will send you an invite to my Discord server where we'll play. You'll be able to roll on Discord, but if you enjoy rolling physical dice, feel free to bring some! Please have stable Internet connection and working microphone and camera. Please come prepared with a respectful and friendly attitude to all at the table.
What GM Gwen brings to the table
I'll bring a copy of the rules and an openness to all ideas. I'm also available for discussion prior to and during the game. The story focuses on collaboration, community and heroics on a mouse scale. Rolls can be made either in Discord or using physical dice.
Homebrew rules
For character creation, I will offer a standard set of numbers for those who don't want to roll. Character options can be chosen, they need not be determined by your rolls.

Safety
How GM Gwen creates a safe table
There will be a shared Lines and Veils document. X and N cards might be held up or spoken as 'Stop, please, and let's skip this/rewind/discuss this/change direction...' At the end of each game, we'll briefly reflect on the game together.
