About me

Hi, My Name, is Franklin West I'm 27 and I've been playing TTRPG's for close to 15 years on and off now and, DM/GM'd for 5 of those years and I've come to deeply enjoy it. Even as a young kid I loved consuming Sci-fi and, Fantasy as much as possible so when I was introduced to D&D as teenager it really left its impression on me. Now over the last 5 years have come to DM/GM for newer players to the Hobbie of TTRPG's rather than being a player. While it's lot more work to tell a story as a GM/DM I've come to enjoy it more with each year of experience! The fun of unwrapping a new world with my players to see all the little details that make a TTRPG a unique experience is what I wish to continue here within this community to reach more new players looking to explore D&D or, other systems of play.

Character creation

Creating your character

I will provide links to all 6 Origins for players as well as all rules for building your own Fallout waste landers! We will be starting at level 1 and will Lv up too Lv2 near the end of the adventure to give players a sense of progression of your characters. We Will be using the Core rule book for fallout: the ttrpg. Of course, I'm willing to go over with each player about their character before the session starts. Or if they would like a premade character, they are more than welcome to the 6 premade waist landers when they sign in to the game on alchemy VTT!

What to expect

Preparing for the session

-I do ask my players to join a discord sever to post their characters for myself and other players to see (for party makeup) and so everyone has a chance to get know one another before and after the game! - I also ask my players to make a free Alchemy VTT account (it's where I will be holding this one shot and is my preferred platform)

What Franklin West brings to the table

NOTE: this is a free playtest to help me perfect this adventure for later posting of this month's charity (its the first time i will have run this one-shot) on startplay! So, I invite the newbie, the veteran player and, all those interested! perks: -moving art scenes & cinematic music on alchemy VTT to help pull you into the wasteland! -a DM that's more than willing to do a voice for specific NPC's and encourages roleplay at the table! -we will be trying to stick to the rules as much as possible for this one-shot! - a comfortable atmosphere for all at my table (I will not tolerate problematic players and will ask negative elements to leave! So, let's keep it cool and respectful!)

Homebrew rules

no home brew rules as of now but will take suggestions from players before session starts.

Safety

How Franklin West creates a safe table

Alchemy has a X-card built into the system (it is anonymously put out when the player hits that button) N&O's are posted in the journal on alchemy to show interest and disinterest. we will be going over safety tools first thing in the session!
