About the adventure
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far way... THE GREAT HUNT begins. While the battle-scarred galaxy rebuilds and rearms, a bloody contest rages in the frontier systems. Mandalorians from across the galaxy compete for the privilege of entering a dangerous manhunt where they must capture or eliminate the most notorious and elusive targets. Within the maze of city streets and underworld hustle of NAR SHADAA, a group of strangers take their first steps into being sponsored for the Great Hunt. -> What to expect as a player: ☑️ A mature and fully realized Star Wars story that can and will evolve based on the choices of the players ☑️ Interact with and combat dozens of the most brutal and lethal Mandalorians in the Galaxy as you compete to become the Mandalore. ☑️ Deep and engaging character creation in session zero using lifepath tables and inter-party bonds ☑️ Dynamic hunting mechanics involving relevant skill checks from the party ☑️ Thrilling and dangerous combat using custom-made enemies and swashbuckling encounters with lofty stakes ☑️ A focus on impactful social encounters with various interesting characters from all corners of the galaxy -> What do my players say? -> "... an amazing GM and allowed for the creation of an incredible universe with the help of the whole table. If anyone wants to play with a GM who is all about collaborative world building then check out a game run by Ken." -> "He’s a great DM. The social and combat encounters are excellently done. He goes out of his way to ensure your characters have a compelling story. Sign up for one of his games and see first hand." -> "Kenny is a patient and supportive GM who invests in new players (like me) without letting the campaign become a classroom: he keeps it interesting, entertaining, and engaging."

Gameplay details
Players can expect heavy amounts of roleplay in many different situations and encounters. NPCs will be inclusive, varied, and engaging to interact with. Many will be romanceable if interested. During session zero we will discuss the origins of our characters. Their mechanic and narrative links to NPCs and locations as they enter the open world. Open World exploration in all its glory. You will be thrust into a dark, political world teeming with villains, cutthroats, terrorists, politicians, and aliens. Danger, death, and, distress are around every corner, you have the power to delve into it. This game will be run using Foundry VTT. This simple and versatile platform lends itself well to the improv-heavy, sandbox-style game I enjoy running. This, combined with Theater of the Mind, ensures total and complete freedom for the players, as anywhere they want to go can be drawn on the map and performed. To ensure a safe and comfortable environment for all players, I use the following safety tools: ✅ A consent form all members of the group must complete. This will determine Lines & Veils ✅ Session zero to discuss concerns, boundaries, and themes before the game begins ✅ At least one 15-20 minute break in the middle of the session ✅ Open door policy. Contact me any time with questions or concerns ✅ In games of darker themes I enjoy running loose and humorous games when possible. The object of the game is to have fun. ___ ---] What a player will experience in this Campaign | Rating out of five skulls | Roleplaying - 💀💀💀💀💀 Politics - 💀💀💀💀 Tactics/Combat - 💀💀💀 Exploration - 💀💀 Puzzles - 💀 RATING: PG-13 - R For intense violence, and descriptions of death.
