About me

There are few things in this world that hold more power than a story. And sharing them across the table with you is my greatest passion in life. So I take great care in crafting all my adventures so the party can have as much fun as possible, blending elements of fantasy and mystery with a heaping dose of comedic hijinks.

Character creation

Creating your character

Characters will be created using the 2024 rules, and at Level 3. Please use Point Buy for your stats. This will be done before the session, and can be discussed in the Discord. You can use any species or subclasses from the officially published books, either 2014 or 2024.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

The session O and all discussions will be done via my Discord.

What Marissa brings to the table

I use a VTT, but will also be sharing images of characters, settings, and maps in the Discord. I will do my best character voices as well. My games embrace the fun and hijinks of the game, and I follow the Rule of Cool. For players, I have digital resources for the rules and sourcebooks.

Safety

How Marissa creates a safe table

Rules for the games will be shared in the Discord. Lines and Veils will be respected by all players. If a player does not feel comfortable publicly sharing, they can message me privately and I will ensure that all boundaries are respected and followed. If a player does refuse to follow after warnings, they will be asked to leave.
