About the adventure
This game uses the "Wiseguys: The Savage Guide to Organized Crime supplement for Savage Worlds Adventure Edition." The Player’s Guide will be provided in the VTT, so you’ll have everything you need to jump into the action. 💀 Brace yourself for the possibility of character death or a life time of incarceration! 🪝STORY HOOK🪝 The old Vegas is gone. The mob doesn’t own the casinos anymore—corporations do. The unions, bookies, and backroom deals? That’s where the real power is. But power comes at a price. The Five Families, the Chicago Outfit, the Russians, and the cartels are all making moves. The feds are watching, the heat is rising, and one wrong step could land you in prison—or a shallow grave in the desert. But you? You’ve got ambition. You’ve got the crew. And you’ve got a boss with a plan. Pull off heists, run rackets, muscle out rivals, and play the angles in a city where the stakes are sky-high and the rules don’t matter. Maybe you’ll climb the ladder, get made, and become a kingpin. Maybe you’ll crash and burn in a hail of bullets. Either way, Vegas won’t forget your name. This ain’t a game—it’s a war. The question is, do you have the stones to survive it? 🎲🎲SWADE makes it Fast! Furious! and Fun!🎲🎲 -Savage Worlds Adventure Edition is a streamlined tabletop role-playing game system featuring fast-paced gameplay, narrative-driven mechanics, and a customizable approach to storytelling.

About me
"Grab a hot drink, a seat around the fire, and listen to my cowboy song." "Comfortable? Good! Now, before we get started, I want you all to know that I tell my tales for your enjoyment and pleasure... so please respect each other and don't enter this area if you desire to cause another harm. If someone's pain is your objective or entertains you... You won't make it past the opening credits of our story." [About me: Having been in (often teaching) the Arts for over 25 years, I really enjoy teaching, and I understand how and love to foster creativity in players!] --Experienced GM/DM/ST for roughly 35 years. I have professionally run hundreds of games over multiple systems. In that time, I have learned that it is the players' story and I am just here to facilitate that experience and make it run smoothly and be as entertaining as possible. I see game rules as a way to keep on track and involved...I never let them get in the way of creativity or the group's enjoyment! I came to StartPlaying looking to run some serious and/or seriously fun sessions. My story telling style is light and flows easy. I do not let the mechanics detract from the experience, but use them to enhance the story you want to be told! Teaching new systems to new players is an experience I enjoy. We were all new players, or new to a system at one time...and without kind and proper guidance we probably wouldn't still be involved in this amazing pastime! Roll well and see ya around!

Safety
How DuChampion (JJ) creates a safe table
-Any use of "out of character" Racism, Sexism, or Discrimination or Personal Attacks of any kind will get you banned. -Players who do these things repeatedly "in character" are discouraged/warned/and subject to being (quickly) kicked or banned. -If you do not follow the “Fade to Black” rule you will be kicked or banned. **Fade to Black Rule** During the game, if there is ever an event, situation, or anything that as a player makes you feel Please say “Fade to Black” (same as N card although sometimes I don't see the chat right away)and that scene will end. I will not ask, I will not judge, I will take control and respect this choice. No story is worth paining someone!
