About the adventure
You can see it in the distance. It seems so far away but you can feel the ground shake with each step it takes. You never thought you would see it, The Great Genetrix. After the awe and dust fade, you look around you and take stock. How are you going to protect your town? Heck, how are you going to protect yourself?? Even with the bustling activity around you, you can't help but wonder... why did it come NOW? And why is it coming this way?? This western one shot is good for players of all experience levels! Whether this is your first time rolling dice or you've been playing since the 80s, this table is for you!

About me
I am a storyteller and creative with a background in improv and theater. My games focus on collaborative story-telling, putting the players in the driver's seat of the story. As I say before every game, I love to bring chaos to the table and welcomes it back in return. I have been running games professionally in person for about 2 years but have been DMing in general for roughly 10. TTRPGs are the thing that give me the greatest joy in life, there is nothing I love more than getting a group of strangers together and watching them become a party.

Creating your character
Characters will be made prior to the start of the session. You will be playing level 3 characters using the point-buy system. I will have pre-generated character sheets to choose from as well in the discord server.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
We will be using Discord and Shard Tabletop. An account must be made for each. If you are unfamiliar with Shard Tabletop, it is an easy to use VTT (virtual tabletop). When you join the discord, you will see instructions on how to create a character and join the adventure.
What Isa The DM brings to the table
As your Dungeon Master, here are the things I can guarantee you: - Character voices galore - Music to set the scene - Rule of Cool, always. - Handouts including but not limited to maps, character portraits, monsters, letters, voice recordings, etc. - Ensuring your choices have an impact on the story & the course of the adventure - A few (probably a lot) of shenanigans
Homebrew rules
These homebrew rules are optional. The whole table must agree to use them. Fate Cards: If you roll a Natural 1 you have a choice to make. Either you can face the consequences of your role or you can make a deal with me. You will succeed on your roll but I will be use a randomly drawn Fate card against you at another point in the game. You can only use this for two Natural 1's per session.

How Isa The DM creates a safe table
All content warnings/triggers will be listed on the "warnings" text channel on discord. If there is anything that raises alarm bells for you, please reach out. I will also check in roughly an hour before the start of the game if anyone needs to speak to me privately. If during the game, a boundary is crossed, the players can message me and I will pause or stop the scene to lead it elsewhere. If someone needs to take a break or moment away, I encourage them to turn off their camera and microphone with no questions asked.
