About the adventure
This game is meant as an introduction to the great and wonderful Marvel Heroic Roleplaying Game that uses the lovely Cortex System. If you are interested in just getting your feet wet in the system and learning how to play it, this is a great entry point for you to start with. Players will be taught everything that they need to know to play the game and may choose from any Marvel character that they might wish to place as. If you love Marvel and you love roleplaying then you will love this game most of all.

About me
I have been playing and running games for 20+ years and I love running games for more than I like playing in them. I claim the title of forever GM and I love it. I enjoy being the gamemaster and I have spent hours and hours reading books and practicing my craft. I have been running games for friends for most of my life, but I have also been going to conventions and running wild and fantastic one-shots. I love running games with a tactical and tactile space, including curated landing pages and minis with maps in the online space. I also love having props and things available for players in a physical space. Finally, I am a mental health professional so safety is at the forefront of all of my games. I understand that mental health is physical health. I am open and accepting, wanting everyone to feel like they have a space and a voice at the table.

Safety
How Jacob “Jake” Stick creates a safe table
To keep my players safe I use a combination of Session 0, Lines and Veils, Aftercare, and Debriefings. I have found that all of these work together to provide a great experience to all players involved.
