About the adventure

This Cyberpunk RED Starter Set is designed specifically for players who are curious about Play By Post (PBP) roleplaying and want to learn how it works in a friendly, low-pressure environment. Over the course of one week, you’ll take part in a short Cyberpunk story told entirely through written posts, learning the basics of both the game system and the unique style of asynchronous roleplay. You’ll create a character, interact with other players (unless in a 1 on 1 game) and NPC’s which make the world alive, make meaningful choices, and experience the fast-paced world of cyberware, megacorporations, and street-level crime. Along the way, I’ll guide you through the core basic rules, dice rolls, roleplay etiquette, and the techniques that make Play By Post games engaging and enjoyable. No previous experience with Cyberpunk RED or Play By Post is required, and the Cyberpunk RED companion app is extremely user friendly to create your character and utilise for stat checks and rolls. Whether you’re completely new to tabletop RPGs, looking for a game that fits around a busy schedule, or simply curious about a different style of roleplaying, this starter set is built to help you jump in with confidence. By the end of the week, you’ll have completed a full mini-adventure and have all the tools you need to join longer Play By Post campaigns.

About me

I’m a passionate Game Master with a deep love for storytelling, immersive roleplay, and cinematic gameplay. I’ve been running tabletop RPGs for several years, with a focus on Daggerheart, Cyberpunk RED, Masks and more recently diving into some horror systems like Mothership. I specialise in crafting adventures with strong narrative arcs, dynamic NPCs, and a focus in player-driven choices that shape the world. My background includes years of experience in creative project management, which I now pour into building engaging campaigns, and memorable one-shots. Whether you’re a brand new player or a seasoned veteran, my goal is to create a fun, inclusive, and welcoming table where everyone gets a chance to shine. I love blending roleplay with tactical encounters, mystery, and moments of levity, and I’ll always make sure your character has a place in the story. Let’s roll some dice and tell an epic story together!

Character creation

Creating your character

Character creation is part of the Starter Set experience and will be completed following sign up. Players will create their characters using the Cyberpunk RED Companion App, which makes the process quick and beginner-friendly. We’ll be using standard starting characters with the default character creation options provided by the app, so no previous knowledge of the rules is required. Once you’ve created your character, I’ll review it with you, answer any questions you have, and explain how the various stats, skills, and abilities could work in the game before we start playing. The goal isn’t to build the most powerful character possible, but to learn how Cyberpunk RED characters function, to make an individual in which you can have fun roleplaying as, and figuring how their uniqueness can be used in a Play By Post game. No additional books are required for this Starter Set. Everything you need to create your character and participate in the adventure will be provided or explained during the onboarding process.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

All that is needed for this game is a discord account, an open mind, and a passion for narrative collaboration.

What KingTasty (Elliot) brings to the table

As a GM I pride myself on my character-driven narrative games, and the reactive and ever changing worlds in which we build together. With my games you’re sure to get epic character moments, some deep story arcs, and player free will to bend the story and the objectives where seems most effective to achieve the groups overall goal.

Safety

How KingTasty (Elliot) creates a safe table

Players will be kept safe and supported through regular breaks and bleed throughout the slower nature of the play by post format, as well as an open door policy with GM and a separate group chat from the main scene for players to discuss and decompress out of character.
