Creating your character
We'll create characters together in session 0 using the tools in Alchemy. Virtually any investigator occupation is suitable for this campaign. The campaign’s prologue scenario concerns an archaeological expedition; consider what sort of occupation could be appropriate for such a venture or how your investigator could be enticed to go on such a journey. Pre-made characters are also available to choose from.
What to expect
Preparing for the session

What Mike_d20 brings to the table
I see tabletop games as a great opportunity for catharsis. We're here for different reasons maybe to learn something about ourselves, turn flaws into strengths, explore new aspects of yourself, or just escape from your daily struggles for a while. Whatever that is for you, I want to help bring it out in this space and have a good time while we do it. This campaign will be filled with cinematics in the form of visual and audio enhancements and aids. Ambiance, battle music, and handouts like newspaper clippings and handwritten letters, bring this story to life.
