What Fabled brings to the table

Game Setting: This game is set in a homebrew world called The Rosewind Realm. Standard fantasy TTRPG world with five distinct domains to provide a diverse playground and rich worldbuilding experience for everyone. Learning Experience: I will guide our group through the basics of the game and provide assistance in play mechanics and character building as needed. Community: You are more than welcome stick around in the discord server for as long as you wish. It is a laid-back server with a group of like minded TTRPG players where we will be posting about upcoming games and lore drops about The Rosewind Stories. GM Style: I utilize simple game tools and maps to engage everyone in the table in an immersive and interactive way with an easy entry point. I lean into detailed world building and like to prove visual aids to players before and during play - including regional maps, NPC/Adversary artwork, ect. I enjoy character voices but limit those to roll-play situations to ensure players have clarity when it matters most. I believe that this is as much (or more so) the player's story than it is the GM's so I will prompt players to provide descriptions of actions or locations. I expect input from all players as the story progresses. I respect Rules as Written to ensure a balanced game but I also will always leave the door open for Rule of Cool. Some of the best moments of TTRPG are when players have a creative approach to the obstacles in their way. So as long as you can tell me how/why ROC should be applied I will always consider it.

Homebrew rules

Glancing Blows: If an attack just hits your armor class you only take half damage.

How Fabled creates a safe table

This learn to play session leans very PG - most of the conversation will be about play mechanics - however there is also plenty of room for RP and combat. If there is inappropriate behavior during the session it will be dealt immediately.
