About the adventure
I am running various one shots with different themes and styles. High fantasy, mystery, horror, comedy. This gives players a chance to come back for more fun, but also experience the world in a different way. These one shots are designed for all skill levels and for new players to get introduced the system of Daggerheart. Veteran ttrpgers and newer players will both find fun. I will take time and explain rules to help players learn the rules and system.

About me
Hello, everyone! Decon.the.GM here. I have been running ttrpg games for 26 years now. So, I have had a lot of time to test and hone my GM skills. I really enjoy running heroic, rp heavy games that utilize incredible plot twists and situations that present moral dilemmas. Players are given opportunities to truly form an emotional connection with the story as their characters develop and grow. I have found that introducing these into games provides opportunities for players to really immerse themselves in the game as they develop and grow their characters. I spent most of my GM career running D&D games. All the way back to 3.0. Recently, I have switched over to Daggerheart. I have really come to enjoy the thematic and exciting tone of this system. It encourages RP and teamwork while not being bogged down by rules heavy constraints. I look forward to the opportunity to run a game for you! So, join up and embark on some amazing adventures.

Creating your character
Players can make their own character or be provided a number of different 3rd level characters to choose from. If help is needed, I will happily make time to assist in character creation. This will cut down on pre-game time and allow us to really get into the thick of it. We will go over the characters and abilities at the start of the session. Characters are made on the Daggerheart portal on the Demiplane site.
Players can choose from any character creation options found on the Demiplane site. Please contact me before using a transformation card.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Mics will be needed. Webcams are optional. We will be utilizing Discord as the platform where the game is run. So, a steady internet connection will be needed. Here is a link to the discord server: https://discord.gg/Ugkuft5gF
What Decon.the.GM brings to the table
I enjoy introducing an RP heavy game that gives players an immersive experience to really get into the story. It is a collaborative experience and should be treated as such. I use sound apps in Discord to set the tone with some good background music. Expect some fun, thematic combat that is designed to help you learn and engage in the system that embraces the Rule of Cool.

Safety
How Decon.the.GM creates a safe table
I run a safe game. Racism and other forms of prejudice, slavery, SA, violence against kids, and other triggering factors are strictly prohibited. This is non-negotiable. We will be using a Lines and Veils document. This is about learning and having fun while doing it.
