About the adventure
IRONCLAW: ANTHROPOMORPHIC FANTASY ROLE-PLAY ...the wars of church and state, of fantastic and mundane, of overlords and underlings, of tooth and claw. The savagery of the old ways cannot stand, but is our tale one of horrors yet unseen, or of a glorious new age where all might be free? And what role will you play? IRONCLAW is a unique system that's easy to learn, at the level you want to enjoy. Play as a bird, bat, beast, or something even stranger, in broad strokes that come quickly. Or delve deep into the philosophy of gifts, skills, and interlocking systems to unlock secret paths to glory. Tell the story not just of your own hero, but their friends, cohorts, loved-ones, and hangers-on. Master the blade, or the gun, or the wand, or even the empty hand ... or dabble in any and all things, be ready for come what may. It's a world of adventure, and your fate has yet to be written. You will need a copy of IRONCLAW to play this game, but we're happy to teach you the rules. We'll be using Roll20 for the mechanic stuff. And we'll be using Discord for voice chat, though video is optional. Hosted by Norman Rafferty, star of many great conventions and a few dodgy ones.

Additional Details
How to prepare
Game rules will be taught at the table. Ironclaw has been around for more than twenty years and has a thousand pages of lore and options; we'd encourage you to at least get the quick start or the players' book. We'll be using Roll20 to handle the dice. Ironclaw uses d4s, d6s, d8s, d10s, and d12s.
What I provide
Rafferty to provide Roll20 maps and illustrations.
Gameplay details
We'll do a session so you can make your characters, and then two or more adventures with the characters. This is a short campaign to help you get started! While Norman Rafferty has had many years of experience both at the table and on the screen, remote play can sometimes be frustrating. We're planning a slower game for new players, but patient veterans are always welcome
