About the adventure
Want to have a say in the mechanics of a system? Want the world, the system, and everything about a campaign to be as customizable as the furniture and layout of a house or apartment without limitations? Joining a campaign run by a TTRPG Designer and Writer will allow you to access this near-limitless potential in a campaign. As a group, decide what genre(s) you want to focus on, as well as how complex you want the different mechanics to be, and what aspects of the game you want to focus on throughout the game.

About me
I am a Game Designer known as Planetary Penguin Games online! I primarily only run Play By Post Campaigns and charge per month. However, I will also run some sessioned games! I like running games and campaigns that subvert what the players expect. I do this through hinting at aspects of the future story with symbolism. However, I also include false symbolism: symbols that would lead to one thing but instead don’t lead to anything. I do typically create my own symbolism systems for each campaign or one-shot, meaning these symbols are something for the players to unravel as the story that the players and I create unfolds! I have been playing and running campaigns since 2019, and started making my own rules systems in 2019. Throughout this time, I have ran over 20 campaigns and over 15 one-shots in Dungeons and Dragons 5e (2014 rules) as well as in campaigns of my own creation. I enjoy when players are creative and have fun, leading me to give more freedom to my players than what some previous players have expected.

Creating your character
As we are creating a system together, there is no character creation early on. Simply come up with ideas for a genre and what you may want to have included in character creation for the game.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need Discord for this campaign: this is all you'll need.
What Ahnoe B brings to the table
I will write the system's rules based on our ideas. I will bring my experience with writing systems from scratch to the table, as well as my own creativity. You do not need any experience in creating your own game, as we will be doing this together.

How Ahnoe B creates a safe table
X, N, and Os can be messaged or spoken verbally: this is entirely up to you. During Session 0 we will be discussing our wants with the system as well as from the campaign. Note: Due to how broad this campaign can be and how the players’ wishes nearly entirely affect the campaign, the content warnings for this game may be different from the one(s) listed. Due to this, before play the players and I will create our own list of content warnings specific to the adventure. These content warnings can and should change and adapt as the system and adventure expands.
