About the adventure
The Great War ended in nuclear fire, and two centuries later the wasteland still refuses to forgive. Scattered survivors cling to life among ruins, radiation, and raiders. In this campaign, set in the Cajun Wasteland of New Orleans, the characters are not heroes or warlords ... they are survivors. Every bullet, every meal, and every drop of water matters. The group must scavenge, trade, and fight to stay alive, all while deciding how much of their humanity they’re willing to sacrifice. The story is about endurance, community, and the price of survival. Settlements rise and fall, raiders grow bold, storms sweep the land, and mutated horrors stalk the night. The wasteland will test the group again and again, forcing hard choices: * Do you share your food with starving strangers, or let them die to keep your people fed? * Do you negotiate with raiders, or risk everything in open war? * Do you preserve what’s left of the old world, or burn it down to build something new? By the end, the survivors will either have built a fragile spark of hope—or been swallowed whole by the ashes of tomorrow.

About me
I want to begin with saying that my table is open to anyone regardless of gender, culture or race and as a LGBTQ+ ally I provide an open and inviting table for all who wish to play. My table has been and will always be a safe place. There is no room for hatred or bigotry and I have Zero Tolerance for personal attacks. Now that being said, here is a little about me. I have been playing TTRPGs since the late 80's, starting with DnD 2e. Since then, I have played other systems such as Werewolf, 13th Age, Shadowrun, Pathfinder, Star Trek, Star Wars, Fallout and Witcher. I started being a DM around 20 years ago. The campaigns that I run are complete sandbox and are character-centric, where the actions of the characters will have an impact (both positive and negative) on the world around them. I have been called a 'high maintenance' GM because I go above and beyond and ask a lot of questions. I will put as much into the campaign and your character's story as you do. If you want to acquire an ability, item, etc, I will work with you to craft a story around it and make it happen during the session or a side session. I run all types of games and entertain to my players and what they want, but you will find a very good mix of RP, combat and puzzles. I will always work with the players to find out their needs so that everyone gets the most out of playing.

Creating your character
Character creation will occur during Session 0. Any official book from the system can be used for creation. Pregenerated characters will also be available as well. SESSION 0 WILL BE A FREE SESSION
What to expect
Preparing for the session
A private discord server will be created for this campaign, which will be used for communication and voice, so you will need to have a Discord account. Games will utilize FoundryVTT, but are hosted on The Forge. A free Forge account will also be required. https://forge-vtt.com/
What LordEggNutz (Jeremy) brings to the table
As a GM, I create custom sandbox games that are character centric, meaning that your characters actions affect the world around them. The actions, both good and bad, past and present, will have future implications. Your character's backstory will be used against them. Things your character says and does during sessions, or anything else deemed as "in character" may or may not be used as well. As a GM, I feel it is my job to work with everyone that is at the table to create a great story. I am open to working with nearly any concept and any type of story, all I ask is that we work together. I have been called a 'high maintenance' GM because I go above and beyond and ask a lot of questions. I will put as much into the campaign and your character's story as you do. If you want to acquire an ability, item, etc, I will work with you to craft a story around it and make it happen during the session or a side session. I provide Character Creation Clinics where I help with the following * Assistance with creating and fleshing out characters. * Character advancement planning * I allow players to make minor changes (the concept must remain the same) after a few sessions of playing. For example, if you decide to shift a few skills around or decide that the feat you originally chose just doesn't fit after all. They can be swapped out for others that fit the core concept better. I do believe in the Rule of Cool and the statement "Live by the Dice, Die by the Dice. All of my combat rolls are open and visible. You will see the rolls and the damage taken. I also create custom maps; city/town maps, regional maps, world maps and battlemaps are all custom made.
Homebrew rules
I currently do not have any homebrewed rules for this campaign, however, some may be created as the campaign proceeds along.

How LordEggNutz (Jeremy) creates a safe table
First and Foremost. My table is open to all and hate has no place here. I am an LGBTQIA+ ally and you are welcome and safe. I will NOT tolerate any personal attacks against players. Any such actions will result in immediate removal. I will go over additional details during Session 0, including my open door policy and the usage of Lines and Veils adn X,N,O cards. There are some topics that will never occur in any of my games. * Sexual assault of any kind * Violence against children -- children may die during the course of gameplay, but only the result of such action, such as stumbling over their bodies. Their actual deaths will be done behind the scenes. * Any real-world topics revolving around politics, sexual identity, homo/transphobia, etc will not be present. * IRL racism -- Fantasy racism, such as hatred of elves or dwarves, will still be present in some degree. If topics or subjects occur that you are not comfortable with, then please let me know and I will change things. There will be no judgements, reprisals or any other negative impact in any way shape or form.
