About the adventure
You wake up in a bed in a room; you cannot remember who or where you are. Now you must work together with the other strangers (at least you think they are strangers) in the mansion to remember who you are and return home. Each player will write a short backstory that will be randomly assigned to another player. Details of the backstories will be revealed throughout the game as certain actions trigger memories. Players must work together to figure out what happened and how to escape this strange mansion. Players should enjoy hearing bits and pieces of backstory as they come to light through the actions the characters take and be willing to roleplay having lost their memory. This is a DnD 5e game. If you prefer to play Pathfinder 2e, you can search for this same title and see available timeslots or message me for a custom game.

How will character creation work
Characters will be level 5 and should be created in advance. If you need assistance, you can reach out before the session 0 via discord. More importantly, each player will need to create a bullet point style backstory that is class/ancestry ambiguous. This backstory will be assigned to a different player's character and someone else's backstory will be assigned to you. These backstories should be kept secret from other players. You will get to watch as someone learns details about their character that you wrote. It makes for a very fun and interesting game.
