About the adventure

(Alert: i'm currently offering a first-time-player offer, first session is free for new players, if you enjoy my GMing and want to play more, you will need to pay the standard fee of 15 dollars depending on the listing, my oneshots are introductory and are priced at 5 dollars.) This game is for new and experienced players, this will be a cooperative investigation, you may encounter dead ends but it's up to you to piece everything together, something may connect to something else. I am very friendly to new players and experienced players, if you have any questions about the system I am happy to help better understand the system so that you can have a great experience playing.

About me

I am a young GM that wants to do what he loves, i've encountered plenty of players, some of them less than ideal than most, but no matter what I always try my best to give my players the best experience they could, using music to set the tone and background audio to add immersion. I am also a huge fan of tactical moments and gunplay, huge gun nerd on my part.
