Creating your character
Session zero will be held to create characters - though you are always welcome to bring as many characters as you want to the session or even just a concept. Characters will begin at level 1. I have copies of the player's guide for anyone who needs it.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Sessions will be played on Foundry VTT and through Discord. I will send you a join code to the Discord once you join the game.
What Emily brings to the table
I will provide Foundry, any books and resources you need to play, and the discord server. I am a rule of cool GM who embraces anything that makes the session fun and enjoyable to all.
