About the adventure
Leap down the rabbit hole with us and explore a unique historical fiction inspired by Lewis Carroll's beloved world. Generations before Alice took her tumble through the looking glass, other strangers found themselves on Wonderland's shores. They came in ships. They came with steel and fire. They painted the world red. Among those to first make contact, the gentle Mome Raths were unprepared and suffered greatly. Still, not all of them suffered in silence. Many resisted and fought back. Friends and allies gathered around them. And then the Queens stole something precious from them and resistance turned to rage. Wonderland is your home. The Mome Raths are your neighbors. Too much has been lost to the imperial invaders, and they keep taking more. The fight will last for generations, but this is when it begins. This is when so many united under a powerful rallying cry: Wonderland Back. ------------------- I approach serious, difficult topics with whimsy and a touch of the absurd. I dress up dark stories in candy coating and then let the players work their way to the bitter core. This game has themes of colonization, indoctrination, and genocide, but the banner for it is pastel cuteness. This will not be a cutesy, soft game. The banner is cute but the content is not. Do with this information what you will.

About me
🎲 - Your next storyteller Tau, taiguey, hola, marhaba, and hello! I'm Quinn! I have spent my life studying the history and evolution of story and storytelling and want to carry on the traditions I have been taught and have learned. I'm a reconnecting Taino trying to decolonize my gaming. I truly hope I am providing a safe game space for players who are often excluded or made to feel uncomfortable in more mainstream spaces. 🧑🧑🧒 - Stay-at-home parent I can't keep a traditional work schedule, so I enjoy life as a stay at home parent instead. It gives me the flexibility to run games for people whose schedules are less flexible. I remember keeping those odd hours and being swamped with work. My goal is to help get everyone gaming, whenever that is.

How Quinn Alej creates a safe table
We use traffic light emojis: Go, slow down, stop, and check in. Players are also free to voice a need to stop or DM it. Part of session zero includes discussing lines and veils. Players may step away from triggering topics or scenes at any time without negative effect on their characters.
