About the adventure
-> TLDR: This campaign is about ordinary people trying to survive the end of society. It’s ideal for players who enjoy slow-burn tension, character-driven drama, moral dilemmas, and collaborative storytelling in an asynchronous Play-by-Post format. -> Experience a world where the dead walk, trust is fragile, and survival is never guaranteed. Civilization has collapsed, but humanity hasn’t vanished...yet. Every settlement is a gamble, every stranger a risk, and every choice echoes long after the screams fade. The horror isn’t just the walkers...it’s what people become when the rules are gone. -> What to expect as a player: 🔹 An inclusive environment for all identities, in and out of game 🔹 A beginner-friendly table that is still engaging and interesting to more advanced players 🔹 A Play-by-Post game that allows for time and schedule flexibility 🔹 Build the world together, shaping locations, factions, and threats from the ground up. 🔹 Create survivors through dynamic character systems rooted in trauma, bonds, and hard choices. 🔹 Forge alliances, rivalries, and family-like ties while avoiding betrayal and the undead alike. 🔹 Face fast, brutal conflicts against walkers and humans with custom-crafted enemies and stakes. 🔹 A focus on impactful narrative encounters using the Year Zero system as a fluid guide, not rigid rules. We work together to tell the best story we possibly can. -> This campaign will begin with character and world creation. You will define the place you call home -> your haven in the apocalypse. Together, we’ll establish bonds between survivors, build NPC support networks, create dangerous villains, and let the story grow naturally from your choices. This is your world. The only question is how long you’ll survive it.

About me
Hello there! I'm Kenny, an experienced professional and full-time gamemaster. With a background in creative writing (B.A.), game design (A.A.), and certifications in narrative design, I bring both structure and spontaneity to every session. I've also designed my own adventure paths, campaign settings, and mechanics, giving me a deep understanding of how story and mechanics can work hand-in-hand. My true passion lies in collaborative storytelling, weaving unforgettable adventures through improv, roleplay, and the dynamic systems of TTRPGs. Whether you're new to the table or a seasoned dice-roller, I’m here to help you explore new worlds, tell epic stories, and, most importantly, have a blast doing it!
