About the adventure
Set 20 years before the events of RWBY, this campaign takes place in the Kingdom of Mistral, centered around Haven Academy. You will create an original Huntsman or Huntress training to defend Remnant from Grimm, criminal syndicates, and the growing unrest spreading across the kingdoms. Over the course of four “Volumes,” you will survive deadly combat exams, master Aura and Semblances, build relationships and rivalries, and eventually compete in the legendary Vytal Festival before graduating into the dangerous life of a licensed Huntsman. This game uses the Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game (616 System), fully adapted into the world of Remnant. There are no Marvel heroes or multiverse elements involved; the system is simply being used to support fast-paced Huntsman combat, unique Semblances, and highly customized transforming weapons — because in Remnant, your weapon is almost always also a gun. Your character is expected to begin with a signature weapon already created, often tied to family, culture, or personal history, and your story will continue long after graduation as you carve your place into the history of Remnant.

About me
Greetings, fellow adventurers! I am Kiefer Seeley, a seasoned Game Master, talented voice actor, and devout follower of Christ. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance! From an early age, I was fortunate to be encouraged to unleash my imagination and nurture my creativity through play. Whether engaging in epic battles against invisible monsters or embracing the thrill of superhuman speed, these childhood adventures laid the foundation for my profound passion for the realm of fantasy. Through the guidance of my faith, this passion has led me to my current role as a Super-Hero! I have the privilege of hosting parties as various heroes or mascots, such as Batman, Spiderman, a minion, a pup from Paw Patrol, and many more! During my free time, you can often find me immersed in games like Civilization 6, Frostpunk, and Overwatch, or preparing for exhilarating Dungeons and Dragons campaigns as either a player or a game master. Beyond my love for the fantastical, I am also a devoted lover of animals. With extensive experience in raising pets and delving into their nature and behaviors, I have developed a profound understanding of our furry companions. Currently, I am the proud owner of two cats who regularly bless our family with adorable kittens before finding them suitable forever homes. Alongside my affinity for animals, I have a natural affinity for children as well. Being the eldest of five siblings and actively volunteering in various kids ministries, I have honed my patience and forged meaningful relationships with individuals of all ages. I am eager and excited to embark on this adventure together with all of you. Let us delve into the vast realms of imagination and create unforgettable stories and experiences that will leave us inspired and enthralled. May our journey be filled with joy, camaraderie, and the endless wonders that await us!

Creating your character
- Please provide concept art of your character. Try to stay true to the RWBY art style. Preference towards the newer volumes with more HD, but this is optional. - Choose a name that represents a colour. This could be something that is a color, makes you think of a color, or represents a color. - Choose a semblance. Powers should be thematically reasonable related to your semblance and training. NO MAGIC! Magic and semblance are not the same, and magic is very rare. - Character creation must be done over Roll20. My compendium is shared, so you will have full access. - Start at Rank 2. Your character has graduated and is now been accepted into Haven. - Backstory is helpful, but not required. - Setting takes place 20 years before the events of RWBY. Roughly 2 years before the birth of Yang Xiao Long.

Discord, "Zen Zed's Table": https://discord.gg/drgUpWKg Range for weapons RAW are... underwhelming. I am allowing for a much more realistic range for guns. Terminology on character sheets are designed for Multiverse of Marvel. We will translate "Focus" to "Aura". Other similar changes will be made, using the same system fully as intended, but with phrasing geared towards RWBY themes.
