About the adventure
SAVE THE WORLD: Work as a team to put a stop to Project Medusa, a top-secret biological weapon threatening to hold the entire planet hostage. FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHT: Play as heroes inspired by your favorite action tropes, gunslinging badasses who are all out of bubble gum and three days from retirement. RACE AGAINST THE CLOCK: Fight bad guys, chase a plane in a sports car, shoot two guns whilst flying through the air, and skydive through explosions. PREGEN CHARACTERS AVAILABLE: Choose from an undercover federal agent, a skilled driver, a martial arts master, and a grizzled private investigator, or make your own characters! EASY TO LEARN: Outgunned is incredibly quick to pick up, and even more forgiving to beginner players! The dice bot on Discord makes every action intuitive and straightforward. OUTGUNNED: Published by Two Little Mice, Outgunned uses a unique dice system where rather than rolling a specific number, you aim for matching dice to hit 2, 3, 4, or more-of-a-kind on a pool of d6s. RULE OF COOL: Though the book's rules always have a place at my table, I will always decide in favor of what fits the narrative best! BEGINNER FRIENDLY: I've introduced dozens of players to a variety of systems and love to bring new people into my favorite hobby!

About me
Hello! My name is Jared (known online as Jerd) and I've been running and playing tabletop games since 2016. When a group of friends expressed interest in learning Dungeons & Dragons, I volunteered to DM a homebrew 5e game, which set me on a long and incredible path into gaming. During the pandemic, I took my hobby online and played almost daily. Though most of my TTRPG experience is in the fantasy genre (D&D 5e/5.5e, Pathfinder 2e, Daggerheart, etc.), I have also run World of Darkness systems including a Berlin-based Vampire: The Masquerade play-by-post (running now for 2+ years!), and newer systems like Outgunned and Shadowdark. I particularly enjoy horror games such as Mothership, Alien, and Candela Obscura.

Creating your character
We will create characters as a table during Session 0, but pregenerated characters are also available for everyone if so desired!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players will need access to Discord for voice chats, dice rolling, and visual aides. I will provide the rules via PDF as well as pregen character sheets!
What Jared brings to the table
NO MATERIALS NEEDED: I will provide the core rulebook and character sheets for use! I'll also host an easy-to-use dicebot for Outgunned's rules system. FICTION FIRST: My tables are focused on the narrative, where rule of cool always plays a key role in deciding what happens. SETTING THE SCENE: I provide visual aides for locations, characters, maps, and more! Music references are provided but 100% optional.
