About the adventure

The moon has fallen and the age of decadence is over! Lunar meteors have levelled the great cities of this Victorian-esque world and an endless fog seeks to choke and mutate all those who venture past the safety of Saltwater's walls! It's up to you brave (or merely maddened) delvers to restore the warding light beyond and save us all from the horrors that wait beyond for the generous sum of one single dollar each. That's a whole lot of dollars given the whole nightmare lunar meteors, you know! Are you up for some strange shenanigans or shall the world perish by your cowardice? It's your call, Captain Algae awaits by the ship phone. Besides, what could possibly go wrong?

About me

I started with tabletop games about seven years ago in LA living with a bunch of other goth nerds all playing dnd and one shots in the tavern of the mansion we all rented (there were fifteen of us lol). I'm a published author and poet, a certified comic artist, I've done script writing work for indie films - telling stories is very much a part of who I am. Doing it collaboratively is absolutely divine! My first game as a player was a cthulu themed one shot, my first campaign as a gm was for a fallout ttrpg, although I am very much a dnd person - I was helping my best friend work out some lore and got so invested we ran the game together. I'm also a certified comic artist and worked in character creation and worldbuilding for a comic studio, so I've definitely got a background in making places and people feel alive on top of acting experience. A lot of shenanigans occurred over the years of my life and I'm so grateful those shenanigans brought me here. Building a story together with people, getting to know the characters, watching them grow, build off their backstories. It's so much fun!

Character creation

Creating your character

There are four pre-generated characters from which to choose to show off the game mechanics of this new ttrpg! All four character sheets will be available to view in the discord.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

I will shoot you over a link to my discord server, all you need otherwise is a free account on Sqyre to access the foundry server and a mic!

What Prince/Eleanor brings to the table

I bring you silly and not so silly voices, ambient music, sfx when applicable/available to the game, rule of cool if you can give me a solid reason, and fun! Certainly no diabolical dm shenanigans here (affectionate). From little ol' me? Never! >=} I also do my best to give a thorough walkthrough of how to use foundry for those unfamiliar with the vtt!

Homebrew rules

None for this one as it's a brand new ttrpg! Once the core rulebook is out, we shall see!
