About the adventure

If you've always wanted: 🧚 fantasy with a dash of whimsy 🛡️ to fight the strong and defend the weak 🧭 an ever-changing world to explore 📖 stories that you breathe life into 😉 and a little bit of nonsense ...then this is the game for you! Your land has been corrupted by the acts of Haven, and it is time that you fought back! Whether you be a farmer, a teacher, a peddler or a musician, you're soon to become something else: a hero standing up against the oppressors!

About me

𝘓𝘪𝘧𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘩, 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘨𝘵𝘩 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘦𝘢𝘬𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴, 𝘫𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘺 𝘣𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴 - The Lopen, Oathbringer: Book 3 of The Stormlight Archive Hi, my name is Kenan and I've been GMing games since 2004. My #1 goal as a GM is to enable players to craft the story they desire and create the glue to allow all their expectations to mesh. I want sessions to be memorable, exciting and powerful but, above else, I want them to be YOURS. I am open to GMing basically anything outside of D&D. I really enjoy trying out and crafting stories with new systems: currently my favorites Fate, Pathfinder 2e, Draw Steel, FFG's Star Wars and the Cosmere RPG, but this list often changes! I make a point to listen to my players and try to incorporate any of their cool ideas into the games, so please speak out!

Character creation

Creating your character

Characters will be created during Session 0 and will be done as a group. They must all be level 1, live in a town in Fanewick and have some sort of preexisting relationship between them. I will also have pregenerated characters ready if that's your preference. There will be no other limitations on the characters!

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Players should have a microphone and ideally headphones (or at least some mechanism to avoid background noise intruding in the session). Players must have a Discord account which will be the main means of communication for the module and access to a browser that can run FoundryVTT. Other than that, players must be ready to enjoy a great game that may be the beginning of something that lasts!

What Kenan brings to the table

I will have FoundryVTT ready with all the necessary aspects for the session (maps, tokens, music, characters). We will have a mix of action scenes and more narrative ones so be ready for that!

Safety

How Kenan creates a safe table

We will talk about an overview of the module and player expectations in Session 0, as well as go over the Lines and Veils (we'll keep them in a Google Drive document I'll provide). The document may be expanded on at any time during future sessions and if at any point during a session you feel uncomfortable, we will use the Script Change version of X-N-O cards and address it. The campaign will be very focused on a fantasy epic story with quite a bit of whimsy which I think matches Daggerheart very well, so be ready for that!
