About the adventure
From the inky void of nothingness, the realm of Hachelon was created. A new frontier brimming with potential, it caught the eyes of beings both cruel and benign, and so a mass migration to the realm ensued. From the flourishing towns to the abandoned outposts, the land has now experienced its first contact with civilization. However, with the bright future comes the shadows that dance around its flames. With the unknown dangers of this mysterious land came the inspiration for innovation, and thus arcanearms were invented. These weapons, imbued with magics from all sorts of origins, have the ability to fend off any common danger of the frontier, but have recently been used as a way to threaten the competition across the valley. This game will focus on the exploration of Hachelon and the effects the party has on the history of the realm! This game will rely heavily on flavoring your character to fit with the weird western theme (i.e. a light crossbow is a small pistol, a heavy crossbow is a rifle, etc.)!

About me
Howdy, I'm Monkicci! I've been GMing for a variety of TTRPGs (Cyberpunk Red, D&D 5e, Cyberpunk 2020, Daggerheart, Battletech) for a around 1 1/2 years now, and I love it so much. From juicy dramas of heroes and villains to intense battles between powerful forces, I thoroughly enjoy orchestrating all of it and working with each individual to make them feel important in both story and combat! I first got into TTRPGs after playing Cyberpunk 2077 and wanting more, leading me to Cyberpunk Red. I would run sessions all by my lonesome before eventually joining and running my own games online in 2023. With the video game to tabletop path routed in my brain, I decided to play Baldur's Gate 3 in 2024, and that sent me straight to D&D 5e, where it took me a few months to learn the rules as a player before starting to GM using this different system. Nowadays, I have just as much fun (if not more) running a game as I do playing in one.
