The Forbidden Scroll: Learn to play the Avatar Legends RPG!

About the adventure

In the wake of the Fire Nation's recent aggression and successful war strategies, the people of the Fire Nation have been subjected to a sort of cultural stupor; their history is presented to them as perfect and moral, scrubbed clean of all potential wrongdoing. As a result, they become far easier to convince to aide in their military industrial complex. You find this reality to be despicable, and with the help of a few allies, tried to steal a scroll of undeniable truth about the Fire Nation's history; and failed! But you can't rot away in this prison forever, and the celebrations of the Fire Lord's coronation are the perfect opportunity to plan your escape. Avatar Legends is a new Avatar: The Last Airbender table top role playing game! This one-shot adventure is designed to learn the ins and outs of creating a character (With the quick start guide) and then playing that character in The Forbidden Scroll, the provided adventure module. You may generate your own characters, or choose to pilot pregenerated characters; by the end of the session, you will have the skills necessary to play the system when the full ruleset is released!

How will character creation work

WE WILL BE MAKING CHARACTERS TOGETHER! Unlike other systems you may (or may not) be familiar with, aside from a character concept, characters for Avatar: Legends are intended to be designed as a whole. This is to create a cohesive group environment, and to allow each player to build a story off of one another. Additionally, the whole point of this session to learn to play the game, and that includes becoming comfortable with the system! If we need to have a session 0 dedicated only to discussing the system we will do so, but the quickstart guide has all the tools required to get going immediately!
