About the adventure
Oxford, United Kingdom. Modern Day. The cops can't keep their story straight. Gang war this, chemical accident that. You saw the video. No mere human could have done that, causing someone to burst into flames with a flick of a finger. The Messengers have decreed it. Your Conviction demands justice. The Deeper you go, the more twisted the path becomes. Conspiracy, corruption, and a trail of death tracing back many years. All along the way the you get the same message: "Follow the money." Hunter: The Reckoning focuses on The Imbued, humans gifted with special abilities that allow them to fight the supernatural threats stalking our world. These powers, called "Edges," are granted by a mysterious group only known as The Messengers, who opened your eyes to the inhuman monsters lurking behind every shadow.

About me
Hello! My name is Lucas. I love hosting bizarre and brilliant adventures and seeing players' characters and ideas come to life! My main motivation is to learn more about the characters my players create, thus I always aim to give them situations and challenges that explore the character's values, as well as make their decisions lasting and impactful. I particularly enjoying hosting Mage: The Ascension because it allows players to explore esoteric themes as well as reality-warping madness. if you're in the mood for something more lighthearted, I also greatly enjoy using the D100-LITE system in Covert Ops for gun-blasting espionage adventures. I do not allow for the use of AI-generated assets in my games. Note: Nazis, racists, sexists, transphobes, homophobes, and other bigots are explicitly prohibited from playing, reading, watching, or enjoying my games. In fact, I'd rather you avoided my games altogether. If you have to ask whether this statement is about you, it is.

Creating your character
I will arrange one-on-one sessions before the game starts to assist with character creation. Please allow for one hour of time for the onboarding session.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
First, You should also have a Forge account to access the Foundry server. Then, please join the Discord channel to get in touch with me and your fellow players - https://discord.gg/RMttYUyPTF From there, I can contact you about character creation and other questions you have about the game.
What Lucas brings to the table
My motivation as a GM is to learn about the characters my players create, and so I make sure to provide challenges and situations allow for the exploration of characters' convictions, beliefs, and bonds. From the above you can make out that I value roleplaying very much, and thus I value atmosphere to facilitate that, with use of ambient music.
Homebrew rules
Combat has been streamlined in terms of initiative, resembling DnD, allowing for faster and easier combat rounds.

Safety
How Lucas creates a safe table
In my pre-game 1-on-1 sessions I host with players, I introduce them to my Lines and Veils to know beforehand what will be appropriate for my players. I also use digital safety cards on Foundry with which players can anonymously use should they feel uncomfortable or want to stop. I also use breaks every 1:30 hours and a short post-game debriefing to check in on players and make sure they are having fun.
