FATE Core Urban Horror Comedy One-Shots
Got some ideas for an urban horror game that will lean into the comedy. Paranormal investigations with cryptid monsters and stuff like that.

About the adventure
So the idea is a mostly urban horror stuff, and most of the world and story will be generated with characters in creation. There will be plenty of horror elements, but it's absurdist and comedic. Nothing too scary. Maybe paranormal investigators getting into hijinks, or random civilians being roped into an occult secret society, or just trying to find a way to convince a landlord to rent to BigFoot. We can figure it out more later.

About me
I've been playing for roughly 25 years, and have played and run so many different games, from Vampire the Masquerade to D&D 3.5 to FATE Core. If you are looking for a GM with experience, I am right here.

Creating your character
Fate likes to have characters know one another before hand, so we will all create characters before the game starts. If you never played Fate before, it's a quick process. This will also create much of the world in the process.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Bring a microphone and a Discord account. If you do not have a copy of Fate Core, you can read the whole text at https://fate-srd.com As listed in the add, please let me know what setting to run.
What Jason brings to the table
I have a discord server that we can all play in. I'll send an invite link closer to the game day. The Discord server also has a dice bot already installed. Character sheets will be a Google Doc Spreadsheet. That gives us all the ability to see them as we play. I try to make the game as fun and enjoyable as possible, so you can expect good descriptions and character voices.

How Jason creates a safe table
I like to have up to an hour as a Session 0 where not only will we build our characters, but we can discuss what we like and don't like in the game. I don't prescribe to any specific safety tool, but I will look into any if specifically asked by one of the players.
