About the adventure

Cinematic Heroic Tactical This is Draw Steel! The RPG that turns adventurers into Hard-Bitten-Heroes. No spell slots, no long rests, no rolling to hit; it's all action all the smoke no stopping until EVIL IS VANQUISHED! The Delian Tomb is the canonical starter adventure for Draw Steel, suitable for total beginners to roleplay and RPG veterans looking to try out the new system alike. Expect all the fantasy classics, Goblins, Tombs, Foul Rituals, Treasures, Evil Wizards, Ancient Mysteries and Heroic Deeds! There is a lot of optional content available in this adventure, expect it to run between 16 and 24 sessions depending on player choices. You will be learning the rules as we go. I'm a Draw Steel Veteran with hundreds of sessions run starting with the first open playtests so trust you are in good hands! Prepare to DRAW STEEL!

About me

Heyo! I'm Tara! I have been playing RPG's since I was a teenager, I founded the club at my high school and I was a public GM at my Local Game store for 5 years! I love introducing people to the space! I consider us to be collaborators in storytelling, I want you to feel like your character mattered and made an impact on the world. Often former Player Characters will make an appearance and leave permanent marks on the game world - I would love for your character to be one of them! I'm really excited to start getting into draw steel and running high octane action packed heroic adventures! I love sparking a player's creativity, my favorite moments in any game happen when the players think up a solution or a bit of lore or backstory that i never could've thought up on my own! It's why I love DMing! I am a trans femme person from the southeastern US, I highly value a respectful and safe community for LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and neurodivergent folk and I strive to make sure my community is that.

Character creation

Creating your character

Character Creation will be handled in a 1 on 1 Session 0 with me prior to game start. Pregenerated Characters are available upon request. Draw Steel handles most character creation natively so we will be doing things largely by the books. :)

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Join the Discord to find links to all the Resources you need to Join We will be using Draw Steel's purpose built VTT, THE CODEX; distributed via Steam. The Codex requires at least 8 GB of RAM and may not run on older computers. The Codex is still in Early Access but even still delivers the best VTT experience I have ever had. You will have to purchase The Codex by searching Draw Steel on Steam. If needed, a discounted session to offset that cost is available upon request.
