About the adventure
You're a camp counselor at Camp Snallygaster, and you and your fellow counselors have been tasked with keeping these kids safe. Unfortunately, your feerless leader Murie is nowhere to be found, and these kids are ROWDY. And there might be monsters? What will you do? You don't need any background in the game system to play - you can easily learn it as you go. It's a 3d6 system (use 3 regular old 6-sided dice) and character creation happens as we start the game. Come to camp and see if you get to go home...

About me
I run playful games with occasional tactical combat, lots of roleplay, and meaningful consequences. We make stories together and it's a blast. Come for the shenanigans, stay for the friends. I'm a former high school literature/writing teacher and get a kick out of teaching new games to new friends. I'm also a community theater performer and costumer who loves a touch of character in my characters. Come play with me! Cover image credit: The Plundering of Basing House, Charles Landseer (1836)

What to expect
Preparing for the session
Join the Discord and ping me to add you to the game channel. You'll get the link when you join. At game time: Have your dice or dice roller on hand, along with a scrap of paper to write on if you're so inclined. (Or play free and loose with no notes - I'm not your mom.)
What Lizz brings to the table
This will be mostly be a theater of the mind experience. I will send a couple pictures in discord chat, including a map of the camp.

How Lizz creates a safe table
Content warning from the game publisher: This is a horror game where players may witness gruesome scenes, violence, and abuse. We do lines and veils in my games as well as the X-card. For those unfamiliar with it, lines are things that don't come up in game and veils are things that are treated with more of a fade to black mentality. These are safety tools to make sure everyone is able to enjoy the game (since fun is the point). X-Card is a way to show us during a game that a line has been crossed and that you need us to stop and possibly rewind the story because it is upsetting. We'll also take a break midway through. This both allows a break from the horror and lets you get a snack. (Because this is camp and snacktime is important.)
