About the adventure
The imperial navy wants YOU! But do you want them? Of course not, you want freedom on the high seas! The smell of fresh salt air, the feel of the deck under your boot, and the wind in your hair - these are your destiny. Come aboard, it’s time to throw off the empire’s yoke and roam the Great Eastern Sea as a pirate and free sailor! 🏴☠️ Claim your very own pirate ship 💎 Steal from the rich to give to yourselves 🦑 Defeat the denizens of the deep 💰 Find treasure in a tropical paradise You've been recruited to the imperial navy - but the captain's cruel, the bosun's a bastard, and you have had enough. It's time to take back your life, claim the ship, and captain it as you please. The Tressian Isles are a land of free peoples, of rebels against the crown, and of bounteous wonders - but they are also a place of danger, with deadly storms, the prospect of losing yourself at sea, and even deep-dwellers seeking to invade the surface... A swashbuckling adventure in an original setting where you can shape the world with your choices. Inclusivity is a priority at my tables so that everyone can have a good time. Whether you are a new or returning player, I would be glad to have you! If you would like any character creation assistance at all, just let me know.

Additional Details
How to prepare
You will need a mic and a computer with a web browser. You don't need to know the rules in advance but if you do I'll appreciate it. You will also need accounts with discord and the Forge (both are free). If you wish to use video, you will need some kind of webcam.
What I provide
I will provide Foundry virtual tabletop with music, maps, and virtual dice. I will also provide lots of enthusiasm! We will be using my discord server with private channels for the game.
Gameplay details
Our first session will be a session 0 & 1. We will discuss safety tools, session length and number of breaks, and any character set-up that needs doing, and then get started on the adventure! We will likely use Smoke & Sail for our ship content, but if people would prefer something more narrative that is also an option. Safety tools: all lines and veils should be sent to me, and I will anonymise them and ensure the group is aware of where not to tread. We will also have an anonymous X-card button available, and the N- and O-cards can be typed into chat at any point. The content warnings include things that may potentially show up or are optional and can be removed. Please discuss with me if you would like some removed. There is no chattel slavery in this setting, but imperialism does exist. It is presented as bad so don't worry about this campaign glorifying colonial oppression.

How will character creation work
