About the adventure
Listen up! The Funkmaster of Fate is about to lay it down and take you up, he's got high fives and low fives, the hi fi and the low fi, and when the town is down he can get around! This little track is gonna take you way back - back to the groovy 1970s and let me tell you we got the funk and we got the fists. Its a story about the most righteous boss and I do mean Boss - King When. This cat had the real Fu, and he was no Foo, he was bad news. Not just here but everywhere and every when. Then one day, these new cats came to boogie and things got outta sight. Get your groove on in this way over the top, wacky adventure where everybody will indeed be Kung Fu fighting. This story will have both action and comedy in pretty heavy doses. Expect most challenges to be resolved with fists, feet, jokes, and a KYAI shout! Feng Shui is an action role playing system focused on martial arts, guns (especially gun fu) and action vehicle chases. This one shot is intended for curious beginners who want to learn the system. Some touchstones include Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Double Dragon, Dark Stalkers, King of Fighters, Capcom vs X men, The Last Dragon (Shonuff!), Big Trouble in Little China, Everything Everywhere All At Once, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Warrior (the show), Shaft, Super Ninjas, The Golden Child, and Remo Williams. Characters in this game will be hokey, a little goofy, over the top and steeped in Martial Arts Wuxia jargon and peppered with wise sayings. Part of the vibe is definitely supposed to be old school fighting games as an RPG. This is a one shot but with the hope that any Champions that wish to defeat King When once and for all come back to play the campaign.

About me
A man of many hobbies, but table top roleplaying will always be my favorite one. I have been playing various RPGs for 43 years, and GMing for most of that time. What I live for in gaming is those special moments when something happens and the entire table laughs so hard they have trouble breathing. The moment when in a horror game you actually feel a skin tingling fear. When RPG pirates are so moved by camaraderie that one player writes a sea chanty about it to sing in game. When a perfect plot element comes together and we all cheer. To me that is the way to "win" an RPG - to create real fun for the whole group. I believe that all sorts of approaches can create that fun - crunchy or role play heavy, old systems and new systems, theatre of the mind and tactical role play. My intent is always to try make that possible for everyone at the table through things like sharing the spotlight, calling out your character backstory, and creating stories that revolve strongly around a given character. I also endeavor to never leave you "stuck" for a way forward on a plot. I aspire to be a fan of the player characters.

How GM Dayv creates a safe table
A Lines and Veils document will be available through the Discord/share drive. We will also have breaks and use X cards. I don't expect this game will need them however just in case.
