About the adventure

If you like role-playing games, you have Braunstein to thank. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braunstein_(game) In the Village of Amphill, you will take on the life of a random character in or around the village right as the peace of the village is threatened. Players will have secret objectives they can try to achieve by any means. Most of the gameplay will be play-by-post via Discord where one week equals one day of game-time, but major town events will be scheduled for players to come together via voice chat to interact in real-time. Private threads can be created for private conversations between characters. Pacing will be entirely player-driven.

About me

My name is Tommy and I love introducing players to new games and helping players feel more confident in their roleplaying! I cut my teeth on 3.5e in 2007, moved to Pathfinder 1e, then headed over to 5e before expanding my gaming consciousness to include Draw Steel, Traveller, Fate, and my own, homebrewed, rules super-light game, Kismet.

Creating your character

Players can be assigned a random pre-generated character with secret objectives or work with the GM to craft the character they want to portray. Players will need to make up their character's name and personality, at the very least.
