Stonewalkers: The Lost Honorblade of Roshar

Creating your character

Characters will be created before the campaign begins, with final adjustments during Session 0. Stonewalkers begins at level 1 and is designed to take characters through the official campaign progression. We will use the Cosmere RPG: Stormlight Handbook for character creation, including ancestry, culture, heroic path, skills, goals, purpose, obstacle, and starting equipment. You do not need to know the full Cosmere or Stormlight lore before joining. I will help you build a character who fits Roshar, the campaign, and the themes of Stonewalkers. New players are welcome, and rules questions are expected. Character creation will happen in three steps: 1. Before Session 0, we discuss your character concept, background, culture, and what kind of story you want to play. 2. During Session 0, we connect the party, check campaign expectations, clarify rules, safety lines, tone, and make sure every character has a reason to follow the trail of the lost Honorblade. 3. After Session 0, final sheets are completed and prepared for play. We will use official Cosmere RPG material. Homebrew, unusual concepts, or deep Cosmere crossover ideas may be discussed, but they need approval first so they do not break the tone or structure of Stonewalkers. The most important part is not building the strongest character. The most important part is building someone with a reason to care: about honor, survival, loyalty, truth, faith, freedom, duty, or the future of Roshar.

Preparing for the session

Before the game begins, please complete the following steps: 1. Join the Discord server. Discord will be used for voice chat, campaign communication, scheduling, questions, handouts, and between-session updates. 2. Make sure you can access Foundry VTT. We will play on Foundry VTT. You do not need to buy Foundry yourself. I will provide the game link. You only need a stable internet connection and a browser that can run Foundry well, preferably Chrome, Edge, or Firefox. 3. Test your microphone before the first session. A clear microphone is important. A webcam is not required. 4. Create or discuss your character before Session 0. You do not need to arrive with a finished sheet. We will talk through your concept, background, and how your character fits Roshar and the Stonewalkers campaign. 5. Come with a character who cares. Stonewalkers works best when characters have ideals, loyalties, doubts, duties, or personal reasons to follow the trail of the lost Honorblade. 6. No Cosmere expertise required. You do not need to have read The Stormlight Archive. New players are welcome. Important lore will be introduced naturally through play. 7. AI-supported visuals may be used. This campaign may use AI-assisted images, portraits, atmosphere pieces, and battlemaps to support immersion. These are used as visual aids for the table, not as a replacement for roleplay, player choice, or imagination. 8. Be ready for a story-focused campaign. Expect combat, travel, mystery, roleplay, moral choices, and consequences. The campaign follows the official Stonewalkers adventure, with additional Mythveil/Rexborn-style living-world depth.

What Dunchan Hunter brings to the table

I provide a cinematic, character-driven, and consequence-focused campaign experience built around the official Stonewalkers adventure for the Cosmere RPG. You can expect a prepared Foundry VTT table with maps, handouts, tokens, rules support, atmosphere, and visual aids. I use music, ambient sound, character images, location art, and AI-assisted visuals or battlemaps where they help bring Roshar to life. These tools are there to support immersion, not replace imagination or player choice. My games are story-focused, but not passive. Combat matters. Travel matters. Conversations matter. Investigation matters. Stonewalkers is not treated as a simple sequence of encounters. The campaign is run as a living world where people, places, rumors, and factions continue to move even when the party is not watching. This is where the Mythveil / Rexborn approach comes in. Your choices create echoes. NPCs remember what you said and did. Factions may reward, fear, use, mistrust, or oppose you. Rumors can spread. A mercy shown in one place may open a door later. A violent solution may solve the immediate problem but create political, social, or spiritual consequences down the road. Faction play is an important part of the experience. Roshar is full of competing powers, broken loyalties, hidden agendas, religious pressure, military interests, and people trying to survive impossible times. You will not always be choosing between obvious good and obvious evil. Often, the question will be: who pays the price for your decision? Rules are respected, but the goal is always dramatic clarity and fair play. I follow the official Cosmere RPG rules and help players learn them at the table. I am not here to punish new players for not knowing every rule. When the rules are clear, we use them. When a moment needs interpretation, I aim for a fair ruling that protects player agency, the tone of the setting, and the consequences of the scene. I enjoy character voices, distinct NPC personalities, emotional scenes, tactical pressure, moral dilemmas, and strong atmosphere. Expect NPCs with motives instead of quest markers, factions with memory instead of static quest boards, and a world where your reputation can become as important as your weapon. You will receive: - access to the Foundry VTT game - Discord support for voice, scheduling, questions, and handouts - help with character creation and rules onboarding - campaign handouts and setting guidance - atmospheric music and visual support - AI-assisted portraits, scene art, and battlemaps where useful - living-world faction and reputation tracking - a Session 0 to align tone, safety, expectations, and party connections - a campaign where choices have consequences beyond the current scene This table is best for players who want more than a combat simulator or a guided tour through lore. If you want cinematic fantasy, meaningful choices, emotional stakes, faction tension, and a world that remembers what you do, this campaign

How Dunchan Hunter creates a safe table

Player safety and comfort matter at this table. Stonewalkers is an epic fantasy campaign, but it can touch serious themes: war, oppression, trauma, religious pressure, violence, slavery, moral conflict, broken oaths, and people carrying deep emotional wounds. These themes can create powerful stories, but they need clear boundaries and respect. Before play begins, we will have a Session 0 where we discuss tone, expectations, character connections, safety tools, and table boundaries. Players will be invited to share Lines and Veils before or during Session 0. Lines are content that will not appear in the game. Veils are content that may exist in the world but will fade to black or stay off-screen. We will use X, N, and O style safety tools in a practical digital format. Players can speak up at the table, send me a private Discord message, or ask for a pause at any time. No one has to explain or justify discomfort in the moment. If something needs to stop, change direction, or fade out, we do that. During the campaign, I check in when scenes become intense, especially around horror, trauma, oppression, character loss, or difficult moral choices. The goal is not to remove all darkness from the story. The goal is to make sure the table can explore serious themes without players feeling trapped, mocked, or ignored. After intense sessions, I allow space for aftercare. That can mean a short debrief, a tone check, a private message, or simply making sure everyone is okay before we close the session. Players are also welcome to message me later if something bothered them after they had time to think about it. Respect at the table is mandatory. Bigotry, harassment, sexual pressure, bullying, or deliberately pushing another player’s boundaries will not be tolerated. Characters may face a harsh world, but players deserve a safe and respectful table. The aim is simple: strong drama, real stakes, emotional play, and a world that can be dark or difficult — without sacrificing trust between the people playing.
