About the adventure
You scavenge the fog-drenched streets of ruined cities, combing through rubble for scraps of supplies. A clock tower strikes four oblivious pedestrians. It swallows their unconscious bodies whole; new marionettes now added to its collection. A writhing fog. A creeping mist. It slides through every forest, moor, and darkened street. It seeks unwary life outside of the protection of light, then chokes and changes it into eldritch abominations. The sun is dim. The night is black. Horrors move in the dark. Soon, they will devour you all.

About me
My day job as a webdev taught me technology should fade into the background. The same goes for rules: my job is making sure you know enough rules and in-game-lore to feel informed and empowered. I was trained how to teach a game to new players, in a way they have fun the whole time, when starting a university board game club. It's hard for everyone to make time for games. I do my best to run a scheduled game 'no matter what.' You may be surprised at what I “let you get away with” – but that's the point of a roleplaying game! The whole reason I’m here is to allow you greater freedom than any computer or boardgame could ever allow. My role is to invent reactions and consequenses. I have diagnosed and medicated ADHD, one of the ways it can show up is a deep craving for emotional intensity. My toxic trait is seeking strong reactions. Years of unconscious practice mean I have developed a knack for pressing buttons, stirring up conflict, and chasing those moments that make people around me feel. That used to get me into trouble. But as a GM? It’s my greatest strength. I channel that energy into crafting unforgettable story beats and emotionally charged choices. When you disappoint a friendly “Non-Player Character”, I’ll make it hurt. When a villain taunts you, you will burn to take them down. I use every narrative trick in the book to draw you deeper into your character’s journey. Join me in crafting adventures where your characters live, breathe, and grow! (possibly into horrible flesh monsters, to be determined)

How Isaac Schubert creates a safe table
We are all adults here, I maintain an open door policy. If you have to step away for *any reason*, I'm not going to be annoyed or angry. I will find a way to progress the story, such as cutting away to other characters. I also provide all active players with an open **anonymous google form.** I want to make sure I can improve; and know some things can be difficult to say directly. Please use it! My goal is to get better! There are certain themes that are central to the text and cannot be avoided: these are in content warnings list
