"Press Start!" | Learn to Play Fabula Ultima! | Oneshot

Creating your character

Characters will be selected from 1 of 5 pre-generated characters with various abilities, and backgrounds. Players all start at Level 5 (The Default Level for Fabula Ultima Characters). Players will be given access to simple and easy to understand character background information, which they are encouraged to expand upon within the journal pages. Players should can to the Fabula Ultima Core Rulebook for any rules, though the GM keeps handy one of each Rulebook, as well as the PDF for "Press Start!" itself.

Preparing for the session

Players should have access to a Computer (desktop, laptop, or otherwise), a Stable Internet Connection, and a Discord Account. Players should have a Microphone OR be proficient with Discord's Text-to-Speech Functionality if they lack a microphone or are unable to speak for an extended period of time. If you need to create a Discord account, go to Discord.com and follow the instructions. Players do not need to be familiar with the rules, but it never hurts to give them a read! I am more than willing to teach and explain things as often as needed! Characters are pre-generated, and can be played as is out of the "box." You can join this game at any time prior to the game's start time and play! There will be a (brief) Session 0 Before Gameplay starts as well to talk about expectations, goals you have for this game, etc.

How Dragon Of Dice creates a safe table

Important: I employ a specific set of tools both during and after sessions. During Sessions, my Virtual Tabletop (FoundryVTT), which my games are run in, has a module that allows any player to immediately call for a pause, fade to black, intermission, fast-forward the scene, or retroactively roll back and redo a scene. This will be one of the 1st things I point players toward, and I will frequently remind them of its presence and make sure everyone is familiar with its use. Some games will also require external surveys, such as through Google Forms, so I can best place you and keep a clear record of what I need to consider when running for you and your group(s). These forums can be updated if needed, but they serve as a reference for me. Anything I present to other players will be anonymized, without revealing details.
