About the adventure
The blacksmith's daughter has been kidnapped, and you have been called upon to rescue her from her Goblin captors! This brings your hero to the entrance of the Delian Tomb, and the start of a heroic adventure to save the town of Broadhurst! Hello! The Delian Tomb is the "Start Here" adventure for MCDM's heroic, cinematic, tactical, fantasy TTRPG, Draw Steel! It was made with the intention of teaching people how to play while they played! Absolutely no previous experience with the system is required! Where as other heroic fantasy games (naming no names) take a while until your character feels powerful, a Draw Steel hero is powerful from level 1! In addition to the fun, tactical, and in-depth combat, Draw Steel has systems for montage tests (use your skills to help over come a challenge like chasing a target or escape a cave in) and negotiations (deeper social encounters that helps make everyone feel useful, not just the most charismatic)! If this sounds like your kind of system, and you are looking for a change of pace, then join me as we delve into the Delian Tomb, and...DRAW STEEL!

About me
Hello, my name is Jon, and I've been an avid TTRPG player for about a decade now. I've played in a variety of systems, from DnD to Cyberpunk: Red to Call of Cthulu to Dread. In addition to my decade of experience as a player, I've also had about five years experience as a GM, predominantly in Cyberpunk Red and DnD. I am always looking for new systems to run and experience, and have recently been looking to run games in Draw Steel, Daggerheart, and Mothership!

Creating your character
The plan is to use pre-generated characters designed specifically for this adventure! However, if during session zero everyone would like to make an attempt at character creation in the system, we absolutely can do that as well! If we do, we can use Forge Steel, an online tool for character creation! Either way, we will only use the classes in the core book!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Make sure you have a Discord account, along with an account on Owlbear Rodeo, where maps will be hosted!
What Jon brings to the table
- Challenging, but fair combat - Interesting NPCs - A beginner friendly atmosphere, as this entire module is designed to teach the Draw Steel system!
Homebrew rules
As this will be a game to learn the system, there won't be any homebrew for this game! RAW across the board!

How Jon creates a safe table
I will be providing a lines and veils document during session zero, and going over anything else that might not be on the document itself. X, N, and O cards can be either verbalized or sent over message.
