About the adventure
Afterlife: Wandering Souls is a macabre fantasy tabletop role playing game set in a surreal plane known as the Tenebris. You take on the role of a Wanderer - someone who died, but didn't end up in Heaven, Hell, or any other traditional afterlife. Devoid of any memories of your life on earth, you find yourself in an endless desert filled with gateways. Search different planes of existance for clues of your former life, or a semblance of one. Along the way you'll encounter strange inhabitants, alien cultures, and other humans who've lost all hope and are bent on destroying you. This is the blurb from the back of the book, as it's the most easily understood description of this relatively new game. Fans of Wraith: The Oblivion will enjoy this game, though it is not as rigid as the Dark Kingdoms. This is a sandbox world (literally), with ample opportunity to world build along side the DM. This will be very player-driven, and I look forward to exploring the afterlife with you.

About me
Hello, all! I have 20 years of live action role play (LARP) experience as both a player and a storyteller. I've got years of experience incorporating diverse characters into a cooperative story experience. I started playing 5e during the lockdown and instantly became obsessed. It wasn't long before I branched out into dungeon mastering. I'm currently test-playing my homebrew world loosely set in Faerun, and will set a campaign there on request. I've begun running one-shots at conventions in the PNW, and it's always a delight to bring random people together for a game. My table is a safe, queer-friendly space. This is non-negotiable.

Creating your character
Session 0 will be free, and for going over house rules, characters, getting to know you, and triggers. Characters start at 1st level. Stats and mechanics will be discussed during session 0. Characters will be created in Roll20. No evil characters. Neutral is fine. All players will be expected to bring a certain level of enlightened self-interest to their characters, for group cohesion.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Need a Discord and Roll20 account. Spotify also helps for atmospheric music, but not required.
