About the adventure

✨What is this?!!✨ 🛣️ The Green Knight is narrative-driven game where your choices and relationships matter! 🎥 It was released by A24 to go alongside the film "The Green Knight," but no knowledge of Arthurian myth or the fim is required. 🗡️ Honor is everything! A single stat dictates difficulty class, hit points, and your social standing! ✨Logistics and Included Services!✨ 🪓 Immersive play with hand drawn maps and soundscapes. 🗣️ A head-shot sketch of your character comes with play. 🔊 Audio recordings of safer play and lore material for accessibility. 📱 Discord voice play! ✨Ok... I'm Intrigued... Hit Me With That Sweet Flavor Text✨ It is Christmas Eve in Camelot. As King Arthur and his knights feast at the round table, you have come to Midnight Mass. So has a man of the forest, clad from head to toe in foliage and steel. This strange visitor inquires if five folks are brave enough to meet him in a wager. Each of you has found yourself in a bargain with the Green Knight, bound to meet him at Green Chapel one year hence. The Green Man's Gambit will be a 3-session chronicle and session 0 exploring honor, interpersonal relationships and the nature of our debts. The Green Knight system emphasizes moral choices and working with and against archetypes. We will also be reviewing the rules and world during our session 0 and the game is designed for people new to the system! Ideal players should enjoy atmosphere, narrative, and RP.
