About the adventure

Come take a peak of a Roshar, a world battered by storms that fill the land with passing magic, and strips them of anything soft, where even the plants have evolved hard shells! You have been brought into the War of Reckoning in the shattered plains, where death is all but assured at the bottom of sixty foot chasms filled with gigantic animals and floods! No previous knowledge of Sanderson's Cosmere is necessary. Come learn to the nuts and bolts open the doors to adventures in the incredibly imaginative universe of Brandon Sanderson's acclaimed Elantris, Mistborn, and Stormlight Archives sagas!

About me

Role Playing Games were my sanity's refuge when my undiagnosed neurodiversity turned my academic endeavors into a living hell. The stories we weaved, and the love of the friends we wove them with, kept everyone going, and with each other, we were no longer alone. As time would have it, and in spite of our academic or social struggles, we ended up being an exceptional group professionals in our chosen fields, and as we sought to make our childrens' journey easier, most of my friends discovered their own neurodiversity. I want the opportunity to help your characters live epic stories and perhaps, if we are lucky, to turn strangers into lifelong friends. I belong to the Jim Butcher and WX (Sanderson-Kowal-Tayler-Wells) schools of storytelling, Gygax's philosophy of multi-party sandbox campaigning, and have several "podiums" in national (Venezuela) and regional (Caracas) tournaments under my belt (Stopped counting after five). Me? I'm a mixed Norseman-Latino, neurodivergent, liberal, geek, TTRPG and biology nerd. My mum got the "love all, respect all" of her beloved sixties in my heart at an early age, so expect zero judgment, and the (sometimes overbearing) care and kindness I try to offer to the people in my life. As well as some of my anarchist dad's, stonefaced humor (he was a riot, but his humor was black-hole-grade). I'm as old as, and hold the motto of, the Hard Rock Café 🎸: 💖 ♻ ⌛ ☸ ∞"Love All-Serve All, All Is One, Save The Planet, and Take Time To Be Kind." 💖 ♻ ⌛ ☸ ∞ Ready to play campaigns: DnD 5e: Phandelver and below + Essentials (bundled up or separate) Curse of Strahd Helianna's Monster Hunts (can do from Witcher to MHI style) Isekai on the Yokai Realms Benders, Unite!

You will need: Internet connection 💻 Functional microphone and speakers (or headphones). 💻 A sqyre (free) account (https://sqyre.app) 💻 A Chromium compatible web browser such as Opera, Opera GX, Chrome, or Edge (or its equivalent on mac). 🎮 Discord user account. ❌ Don't bring TRASH (Transphobia, Racism, Ableism, Sexism, Homophobia) to the table.

What Olaf brings to the table

I have all the digital assets needed to run the game including: 💻 Virtual tabletop (Foundry VTT) Choice of audio input for soundboard or soundtrack in discord. 💯 Chill game: You don't need to act, do voices, math, or have experience to play.
