Welcome to the song and story festival in the valley of Barovia! Picturesque scenes that will fill your heart to the brim, and you may even leave your heart in Barovia. Many people have come from all over to enjoy the finer points of delights, and please help yourself to our renown pastries! Tales tell us of a fiend who stalks the darkened corners of your dreams, with a never-ending game of cat and mouse. The tarroka cards have been placed, the stage has been set, and I look forward to seeing what web will be weaved.
Storyteller, Joseph Wailings:
This campaign will be a Gothic Horror setting, where fate will rip you to shreds and the beasts of the night will fill your dreams. Will you uncover a legend lost to time or be buried in the crypts where secrets lay? I will be your host through these dark nights, I am DM Mystic Dyrza. Your adventure begins in the valley of Barovia, fall as been set in full and the harvest moon is beginning to reach its zenith. You all have received an invitation to join the Song and Story Festival, the days are a bit chilled but never gloomy and the lands have been almost harvested in full and the winter pantries have been packed. You all have found yourself before a traveling bard, known simply as Joseph Wailings. Giving out fortunes of the future, a couple tonics, and stoic words once in a while.
Now that the cards have been dealt, lets go over some of the ground rules for the game:
1) Cursing is allowed at my table, however in moderation. Should you design a fowl mouthed character by all mean RP that shit up all you like, but keep it relatively clean so as to not make other uncomfortable.
2) Be respectful of the time people spend in the spotlight, please try and keep talking over one another to a minimum. Granted we are all getting to know one another and over time we will develop a tempo that will nearly cut this down to non-existence.
3) Lets all face it at one time or another we've all been in a game and heard tons of background of another players Mic. This can and does diminish the fluidity of the game as well as people enjoyment. No one needs to hear you munching on cheetos between your round of combat!
4) This for the majority will run as rules as written, if you want to do something on the fly that kind of bends the rules but does not outright break them... We’ll let the RULE OF COOL Rule! Though it will be sparing, reserved for epic moments and not every session. I am fine with Rule lawyers, but once I made a call let it be and we can chat after the session as much as you like.
5) Be Cool and have FUN!!!
What you can expect from me:
I am light-hearted, easy going and have a great sense of humor, I am here to have as much fun if not more than you guys! I really do strive to put you in that world, in that moment and help you fully realize in vivid description how cool and bad ass your character and your actions are. Conversely, actions do have consequences, so things can go real sideways if you murder recklessly! This will of course vary with each person and each group I run, but I try to feel a sense of the party and how each character can shine without out shining everyone else. I will by no means will ever make you RP if you don't want to, but I do reward good RP and inventive thinking more than combat XP. I run an XP based system, that accounts for attendance, so if you miss a whole bunch of games you might be a level or two behind the rest of the party, which is totally fine! Life happens, it is what it is, Now for the nitty Gritty:
I love providing an immersive experience, I like to use background music to make the game feel more alive. I am not a Voice Actor, but I love to do different voices to make each NPC feel alive. I am putting in a ton of effort to make this a memorable, please have a good headset so you can take full advantage of my efforts. There is a choice to be made right of the bat... Roll for stats OR take point buy once you've decided there's no going back until that character either gets written out or dies (which you can completely do the 1st session if you want). Next, Variant human is okay and if you have any questions regarding races or classes, my direct message is always open to hear your feedback and ideas.
If you have a backstory and want to incorporate it into the adventure, or you want to tackle something through rp I will put you into those situations. Our first session will be a Session 0 and depending on how far we get we may even call it a Session 1/2. This session will be important going forward, and if you do not have your character fleshed out by then, then don't worry! I look forward to the tales that will be spun.
This is pay to play, for anyone interested in joining or have any question hit me up on discord:
