About me

Some dragons hoard gold. Others hoard gemstones. While I never will turn down such hoards, I hoard stories - a hoard that grows with each passing day. As a long-term roleplay writer, I enjoy creating new stories and curating prewritten ones to fit the tone or purpose of my stories, parties, and games. I have been type-roleplaying for many years, being part of the forum roleplay groups back in the age of Gaia Online and other similar groups. Since then, I have been writing posts that expressed the inner workings, the active actions, and the pointed conversations of hundreds of complex characters. This is only amplified when compiling them together to form a story that is reactive and interactable from a group seeking the next dawn. I have a corgi familiar named Fenrir who often enjoys giving me the Help action and is a mini-celebrity amongst my players, often having a related npc or party pet that represents Fenrir and his antics. I value narrative context and will do my best to fit the mechanics to the narrative you want. This has led me to curating and crafting custom content - often referred to as homebrew - for several games, players, and even other game masters. I do my best to not include AI generated imagery in my live games, choosing to not use such images for advertisement and actively replacing any edge/unknown cases with commissioned pieces, and often support growing artists in my communities. I also do not use AI in any of my play-by-post messages. This provides a raw experience to my creative inspirations.

Character creation

Creating your character

Players will create characters of 10th level using rules provided in Cosmere RPg: Stormlight Archive handbook. Additional guidance will be provided on my discord server. Crafting characters may start with their gear crafted, but require at least 2 ranks in Crafting and 1 talent in artifabrian. If this is fulfilled along with the normal requirementsfor crafting, all crafted gear gains 2 upgrades and 1 downgrade. You may not take the upgrade or downgrade that removes or doubles the cost of the craft.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Players should have free accounts on demiplane, roll20, and discord, along with demiplane and roll20 accounts synced. Players should have their character created in demiplane for ease of access. If a player doesnt wish to use demiplane for character sheet purposes, they may submit a character sheet in another fashion, but must submit one regardless.

Safety

How Onyx (Megan) creates a safe table

Brandon Sandersons universe for Cosmere has some general issues that some people may find problematic. However in the era this takes place, most of these concepts do not exist. That stated this is a struggle against impending death in the form of a last stand. Players are recommended to reach out with any concerns they may have for the session.
