About the adventure
You and your friends will start out this rootin' tootin' campaign in a frontier town looking for hidden treasure deep in a haunted canyon. Your job is to get in and get out alive. If you can manage that, the Bandit Queen has an even bigger job for you down the line. This game is great for all levels of D&D experience. We are here to have a good time, get a little silly, and explore an over the top Western themed continent with incredible NPCs, danger at every turn, and a massive fetch quest on behalf of Terrowin Blackwood, the Bandit Queen herself.

About me
Hi, my online buddies call me Eli! I'd like to be your GM. I'm almost 30, married, mixed (latino and white), and go by they/them pronouns. I’ve been GMing since 2018, specializing in D&D 5e 2014 and PbtA games on Roll20 and in person. I’ve played and/or run D&D 5e, Werewolf the Apocalypse, Vampire the Masquerade, Thirsty Sword Lesbians, Monsterhearts, Monster of the Week, Demigods, and Upriver Downriver. I run all of my games with as close to a home game vibe as possible, focusing on safety and group cohesion. All session 0's are free. That's where you decide if the game and the group are for you, so don't hold back on any questions or concerns. I also design games! I wrote a TTRPG called Final Girl (published on itch.io) and I’ve released a few modules there too. I've also published a one page TTRPG called Cat Scratch, Cat Nap in the same place. I hope to eventually publish a Locked Tomb TTRPG as well. I hope to run some Final Girl games here for other horror movie fans! Expect an inclusive, safety-forward table where we’re here to have fun in whatever form that takes. LGBTQ+ and allies welcome. If none of the games available appeal to you, please reach out! I'd love to craft a personal experience for you and your friends.

Creating your character
We will have a session 0 that will cover character creation. We'll start at level 3, standard array OR rolling stats (dropping 1s) to start. Characters will be created on Roll 20. I am open to all official content and most third party content. Make a character that delights you and your friends at the table. Have fun, be creative, ask for help if you need it! You can come to the table with a character concept, pick a pregenerated character, or if you like I will help you create a character that will be fun to play the day of session 0. We can work together to pick species, class, and abilities to match your playstyle and preferences in session zero or one-on-one DMs.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
• A relatively modern computer capable of running web-based programs (Chrome or Firefox - no Safari, no using phones to run Roll20) • Decent internet access • Good Audio input • Discord (free download or browser-based) • Roll20 account (free, no need to purchase anything)
What eli/elisa brings to the table
I provide a homebrew world that feels lived in, with rules for fire arms, horse travel, train travel, lassos, etc. I will provide battle maps, a map of the continent, and clear expectations for travel/resources. I provide fun and engaging NPCs that feel well rounded and nuanced. I also provide a welcoming environment with a focus on fun.
Homebrew rules
We'll go over rules for firearms, lassos, travel, etc during session 0. I'll also take suggestions on house rules during session 0.
