About me

Zillenial, Queer, Witch, they/them I’ve been GMing since 2018, and I’m the reason most of my friends fell into the tabletop rabbit hole in the first place. I’ve played and/or run D&D 5e, Werewolf the Apocalypse, Vampire the Masquerade, Thirsty Sword Lesbians, Monsterhearts, Monster of the Week, Demigods, and Upriver Downriver. My tables lean loose and fast. I love player-driven chaos and campaigns that feel alive. I’m adaptable, and I’m always down to follow the best idea in the room. I also design games. I wrote a TTRPG called Final Girl (published on itch.io) and I’ve released a few modules there too. I hope to run some Final Girl games here for other horror movie trope fans! Expect an inclusive, safety-forward table where we’re here to have fun in whatever form that takes. LGBTQ+ and allies welcome.

Character creation

Creating your character

We will have a session 0 that will cover character creation. We'll start at level 3, standard array OR rolling stats (dropping 1s) to start. Characters will be created on Roll 20. I am open to all official content and most third party content. Make a character that delights you and your friends at the table. Have fun, be creative, ask for help if you need it! You can come to the table with a character concept, pick a pregenerated characer, or if you like I will help you create a character that will be fun to play. We can work together to pick species, class, and abilities to match your playstyle and preferences in session zero or one-on-one meetings.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

• A relatively modern computer capable of running web-based programs (8-16MB Ram and Chrome or Firefox - no Safari) • Decent internet access • Good Audio input • Discord (free download or browser-based) • Roll20 account (free, no need to purchase anything)

What eli/elisa brings to the table

I provide a homebrew world that feels lived in, with rules for fire arms, horse travel, train travel, lassos, etc. I will provide battle maps, a map of the continent, and clear expectations for travel/resources. I provide fun and engaging NPCs that feel well rounded and nuanced. I also provide a welcoming environment with a focus on fun.

Homebrew rules

We'll go over rules for firearms, lassos, travel, etc during session 0. I'll also take suggestions on house rules during session 0.
