Dispatch: Become a Superhero-In-Training! | Begginer+

Creating your character

Character creation will happen on a session zero and character sheets will be integrated into the Foundry VTT. Mechanics part is very easy, so we will focus more on the story part of your characters.

Preparing for the session

What you will need: ✔ A working microphone (a webcam is also nice, but not a necessity)* ✔ A stable internet connection ✔ PC or laptop (a combination of smartphone for discord and a good tablet for Foundry should also work)* ✔ An adventuring spirit *If you want to join with your partner or friend and play from the same room, you might share a mic and/or PC/Laptop How to prepare: ✔ Sign up to Discord and join my server (invitation will be sent after you joined the campaign) ✔ Get to know the rest of your crew ✔ Envision your Superhero - try to get an idea of who you want to play ✔ You might read some rules - book is shared on discord (not required - I can explain everything for you) Before the session: ✔ Configure your Discord to ensure everything is in order ✔ Ensure you have enough time and quiet place to play ✔ Get yourself any snacks or drinks (stay hydrated!)

What Gustaw brings to the table

A living, rich world populated with interesting NPCs, full of captivating stories. I have prepared VTT Foundry for the campaign, with: 🎴Virtual handouts (images of items found during the session, places visited, NPCs and so on) 🧙 Possibility to add custom tokens for your characters and NPCs 🎲 Virtual dice 🗺️ Custom made tactical maps 📚 Integrated source books 🧩 Many more add-ons to provide us with swift and accessible gameplay Discord server with: 💬 Group channel for the crew to chat, organize and get to know each other 📞 Private channel for every player to discuss with me any topics you want 🎶A music bot to give us an atmospheric music

How Gustaw creates a safe table

The most important safety tool for us will be a session zero, when we will discuss everything we want and don't want to happen during the campaign. RPG Consent Checklist will allow us to remember everything we establish and stick to it. I can explain all safety tools in detail during session zero. While both Player Characters and NPCs will have flaws, which might include prejudices like sexism, racism, homophobia (broad anti-LGBTQ+ views) or religious fanaticism, those harmful preconceptions are not allowed at the table and players who exhibit them will be excluded from playing. If you want your adventurer to share some of those negative ideas (for example - so they can overcome them in an impactful story arc) you must first discuss it with me and the whole group, to ensure everybody will feel comfortable. Members of the crew are meant to work together as a team. Any disputes or antagonism between players' characters should be consensual and mild, so they won't derail the campaign nor bleed into the real world. Tabletop role-playing games are meant to be a fun way to express yourself and spend some quality time. Those rules and tools exist not to limit you as a player, but to guarantee that everyone is having a great time.
