About the adventure
This campaign is set to begin as soon as Wednesday, September 2nd, following the release of the Mistborn Campaign Setting! --- In the great metropolis of Elendel, electric lights illuminate noble mansions and smoke-filled factories in equal measure. Allomancers burn metals to wield impossible powers. Feruchemists store strength, speed, health, memory, and more. The rare Twinborn command one of each of these gifts. A god is real here. That much is certain. Most disagree about who that is and what it means. But most have also never seen the ominous red light that lurks behind the sky. Officially, you are hired muscle. But that's not how you see it. This is family. This crew has spent years carving out a place in the city, protecting its streets, and handling the problems the constables either cannot, or will not, touch. Perhaps the law calls you criminals but you know who the real enemy is . . . They are dismantling everything you built. Your safehouses are exposed. Your allies are disappearing. Noble officials promise investigations while accepting payment from those who hunt you. They know your routes, your secrets, and the names of everyone you care about. One of your closest friends has been captured. You have one night to bring them home. The door is being kicked in as we speak. What begins as a desperate rescue will become an open-ended campaign shaped by your decisions. Build alliances with street crews, inventors, noble houses, communities, or lawkeepers. Infiltrate high society. Rob trains. Investigate impossible crimes. Cross the Roughs. Challenge corrupt officials. Discover Metalborn secrets. Seize control of the city or burn it down. This campaign welcomes longtime Cosmere readers, newcomers, experienced TTRPG players, and absolute beginners. — This campaign features: ⚙️ A beginner-friendly and safe table for players new to TTRPGs, the Cosmere RPG, or Mistborn. ⚙️ An open-ended campaign featuring familiar characters from the books. ⚙️ Allomancers, Feruchemists, and rare Twinborn with unique combinations of powers. ⚙️ Character options including Basin citizens, Terris characters, and koloss-blooded wanderers. ⚙️ An industrial-fantasy world of revolvers, railways, noble intrigue, frontier justice, magic, and gods. ⚙️ Rival gangs, noble houses, lawkeepers, secret organizations, and other factions that react to your choices. ⚙️ A GM with more than 10 years of experience, deep Cosmere knowledge, and experience running the Cosmere RPG since beta. ⚙️ Curated playlists and artwork for major scenes, NPCs, factions, and locations.

✍️ We’ll create characters together during Session 0. ✍️ Before our first session, you’ll need to sign up for Demiplane. Feel free to browse around and see what excites you. ✍️ Full access to Cosmere RPG content will be shared with you during Session 0, but feel free to start forming ideas ahead of time. ✍️ No homebrew classes or features will be used, all character options must come from officially supported content available on Demiplane.
What to expect
Preparing for the session

(Safari is not supported.) 💻 A decent and stable internet connection to a ensure smooth session. 💻 Quality audio input, such as a headset or a good microphone. Please avoid using speakers or built-in laptop mics, as they often cause echo or poor audio quality. 💻 Discord (free to download or use via browser) for voice communication. 💻 Demiplane account (free – no purchases necessary). Takes 1-2 mins to sign up. https://app.demiplane.com/auth/signin?returnTo=/home 💻 Forge account (free – used to access Foundry VTT, which is also free and browser-based for players). https://forge-vtt.com/signup 💻 Optional but encouraged: A webcam if you'd like to share video.

What Nerdyindeed (Geoff) brings to the table
☑️ A dedicated Discord server just for your game, where you can ask questions, coordinate with players, and keep the adventure alive between sessions. ☑️ A fully equipped virtual tabletop through FoundryVTT with soundscapes and ambient music, dynamic battle maps, and built-in character tracking and progression. ☑️ Real-time, in-game safety tools. ☑️ Open DMs in between sessions. I will be available via discord DM and will make it a point to be as accessible as possible for players outside of sessions. I will usually reply within a day if not sooner. ☑️ A Demiplane account with access to all required shareable content for the Cosmere RPG, available to players at no cost. ☑️ Experience. I have run a ton of games and use that experience to provide games that value spontaneity, player choice, and variety. ☑️ Consistency. Games run when scheduled. If a player or two can’t make it, one-shot content can be run instead. If half or more players are unavailable, the group can vote on whether to skip the session or run the alternate content.
Homebrew rules
🎲 The game will be run mostly rules as written, with only one optional homebrew addon. 🎲 I provide an optional set of choices for the Plot Die system that grant players greater narrative control when an Opportunity is rolled. 🎲 These options aren’t additional rules, but structured prompts with light mechanics to illustrate what a “Change the Narrative” moment could look like. They serve as inspiration and a jumping-off point for players to creatively influence the scene. 🎲 The rules-as-written Plot Die mechanics are always available and can be used at any time.
