About the adventure
๐๐๐ฃ๐๐ก ๐ฃ๐๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ข๐ฃ๐๐ก๐ ๐ก๐๐๐๐ -๐๐ป๐๐ฝ๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐, ๐ ๐ฆ๐ผ๐ป๐ด ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ & ๐ง๐ผ๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐- What is the Western Reach? Why, it's the name of the local continent that you smallfolk find yourselves on. Who are the smallfolk? Why, the smallfolk are any critter or creature that stands a single inch tall! Often found navigating a world that looms high and mighty above them. Smallfolk live all over the Reach in hilly valleys, in the towering treetops and bleak basements, beneath rocks, around rivers and even underwater! Who are you? Well, you could be . . . . . . A mistletoe raider from the northern nation of ๐๐๐ฟ๐๐ป๐ด๐น๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ๐๏ธ, a follower of The Jolly Man, who delivers presents to the faithful and coal to evil-doers. . . . A monster hunter from haunted ๐๐ฅ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ฐ๐น๐ถ๐ณ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฆ, schooled in the beasts and boons of mythical folklores, serving as a bulwark against the bumps in the night. . . . A salty sailor from the coastal kingdom of ๐๐ง๐๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ต๐น๐, a tropical melting pot of peoples from across the Western Reach and beyond the Great Briny Blue Ocean. . . . A river-wanderer of ๐๏ธ๐ฅ๐ผ๐ฐ๐๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐, delving into dungeons and sunken depths to dig for treasures lost by sailors from stories past. . . . A scrap-scavenging survivor from ๐๏ธ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐น๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ๐โ ๏ธ, a dusty wasteland frontier ruled by roving warbands on their modified RC cars and tamed beasts. . . . A noble from the southern ๐ก๏ธ๐๐ฎ๐ต๐น๐ฑ๐ฒ๐๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐๐บ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐, overlords of half the realms of the Reach since a conquest waged nearly two centuries ago. . . . A simple villager turned hero from ๐๏ธ๐๐ฎ๐๐ฟ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฒ๐น๐ฑโ๏ธ, a nation that sits right in the middle of the Reach, well-traveled but with stories still to tell. . . . And many, many more options unthought of until YOU come to this realm of minis and monsters. The world of the Western Reach is one of turmoil and change. The Empire wages war against the northern realms of the Reach. Smallfolk society bears greater and meaner stresses. Bandits grow bolder and bloodier while monstrous marauders massacre villages more and more. Within this chaos is opportunity - for what? That's for you to decide. ๐บ๏ธExplore an Original World! | ๐ญ Create any kind of Character!

About me
Hey there! I'm ๐๐ฒ๐ฅ๐ฏ๐ข๐ ๐๐จ๐จ๐ง, proprietor of Moonlight Drive-In Theater, your number one stop for pulpy fun tabletop games! I hope you brought your 3D glasses. I was born in a cave, shackled to an old CRT television and forced to watch the worst schlock humanity could ever create. This has turned me into a mad scientist of genre. Really, though: I've been playing RPGs for around 15 years now. I cut my teeth on forum based, systemless roleplaying that I was eternally dissatisifed with, for it lacked that certain risk. That risk being dice! If I wanted to write, I would, and I do! But within the collaborative world of roleplaying on a tabletop, it's not enough to just say what happens! It's gotta be OUT of your hands - like a die tumbling on the table, cocked against some dorito crumb and just barely giving you that 20. My journey started with Pathfinder 1e with friends, then did a hard shift into GURPS. A smattering of other systems made their way onto our table before we settled on 5e, playing that before coming full circle with Pathfinder 2e. Homecoming! While I appreciate systems and mechanics, my background as such has given me a strong narrative-bent to my Game Mastering. I love stories and I love characters more than I love critical hits (though those also slap immensely.) The collaborative nature of TTRPGs is something that genuinely cannot be replicated elsewhere, and I want to share that joy with my players and my fellow Game Masters.

Creating your character
-๐ Open to everyone who are open to everyone ๐ -Materials needed for play are provided -Running both Free Archetype and Gradual Ability Boost. -Discord featuring lore, worldbuilding and an ongoing, collaborative creation process. -Allowing uncommon and rare options, provided there's a good story angle along with it. -STARFINDER 2E integration where appropriate. This game's setting features a mishmash of tech, and given that toys are character option, so are their weapons.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
A discord account and a decent microphone set up is all I ask. I do NOT require you to voice your character if you don't want to - you can speak in your normal voice or even describe what your character is talking about. What I DO ask is that you have a strong idea of who you are playing. I love characters and I respond the most to folks who have a good idea of who they are.
What Moonlight Drive-In brings to the table
I'll be bringing: -A Foundry server -Custom maps made via Inkarnate and DungeonDraft -HeroForged NPCs and potentially PCs if you all want. -A dynamic, living & breathing setting that will change and operate with and without your input. -I'll be utilizing my minor talents as a voice actor. -I'll be including music, sound effects, whatever I can to truly immerse you into the setting.

Safety
How Moonlight Drive-In creates a safe table
-We'll have a Session 0 to go over safety tools and player comfort levels with regard to subject matter and game tone. -The content warnings list should be considered non-exhaustive, rather just the things most likely to come up. -This game WILL make allusions to real world religion via how Smallfolk interpret it. If you cannot handle that maturely with a strong distinction between reality and the game: no judgment, but please do not join! -Regarding that, there is a 0 tolerance policy for discrimination/bigotry at my tables.
