About the adventure
What to expect in these games: - Extremely simple rules to get the action going (if you expected the actual shadowrun rules, this isn't for you) - Quick and fun character creation process which may include backstabing the other players in the process (welcome to paranoia). - Cooperative storytelling, you do the rolls and you move the game forward. - fast paced one shots where you are running against a clock For people who don't know shadowrun's world: Shadowrun is a futuristic uchronia setting on earth around 2050-2080. Uchronia means that elements of the history of our world has been changed. Here are major changes: 1- compagnies have become statelike entities called corporation (cyberpunk style) 2- The matrix exists! (roughly like in the movies) 3- magic has returned to the world with elves, unicorns and dragons reappearing, and a lot of other crazier things... For people who dont' know the game Paranoia: This comical system is meant for a dystopian reality where a paranoid computer overlord uses humans as canon fodder for the many tasks it believes are necessary to do. Now do the math and add these two things together :) What could go wrong?

About me
Hello and welcome, I am an experienced DM with over 30 years in Role playing games. I started playing with my family as a very young kid and was hooked ever since. I have made stories for various RPG types like DnD from second edition up to 5e, Stormbringer, Shadowrun, Warhammer, Midnight, Call of Cthulhu, Star Wars, Legend of the five rings, 7th Sea, Lord of the rings. I started Dming online in 2019. I enjoy making worlds and stories of high fantasy with a dash of dark horror peppered with good humor. I paint Npcs with motives and stories that players can come to befriend, love, fight or hate. As the campaigns are centered around the players, the story will track the events that brings them to legends of their world. My ultimate fun is for the players to live memorable events and stories be it from a mundane or an epic situation. I welcome beginners and veterans and I do not discriminate on any base: come as you are. All my campaigns will start with a session zero to talk about the game setting (the world you would be playing in) and a step by step help to make your characters. I also review with the players a consent list to set the proper levels regarding boundaries (social, violence, etc.) for a safe RPG experience. Currently I propose settings in the Dnd 5e Campaigns. I’m bringing to the game Homebrew worlds with unique maps and battle maps full of characters with their own motives and agenda as well as personal versions of classic monsters. Trivias: I also Dm in french. I use safety tools: initial safety form in session 0, X cards, pre and post game experience sharing. For Online Dming I use Foundry VTT. I currently use some AI for my illustrations but I'm working my way toward a zero AI illustration for my entire world and products.
View Profile →Character creation
Creating your character
Character creation will be using the Paranoia system. It is a cooperative process that is part of the game and will take about 15 minutes to be completed. It's a fast paced system that is quite fun :) WARNING: your character will be the result of table choices. Other players will influence your stats and skills during the creation process. This is a game design and it is really funny, but it's not for everyone.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You need a mic, a discord account, a partially functioning brain and a strong desire to have fun :) Also you should be aware of the following quirks in a game of Paranoia: - Happiness is mandatory - Betrayal is rewarded (this game expects some level of player versus player)
What Truthfool brings to the table
I'm hosting the game on my server with foundry. The game will be using a lot of theater of the mind and a few maps for ambiance.
Homebrew rules
These one shots will be very light on rules. I'm using a modified version of paranoia. If you know the world of Shadowrun, it's great but the books don't tell the truth :)

How Truthfool creates a safe table
Each one shot includes a short introduction to go over the rules and check lines and veils. There will be X cards available. We will have post game discussions to discuss what we liked, what we would like to see more and to check any need the group may have.
