A disgusting race of creatures called the Gort have been raiding your home island, stealing your people and livestock. The unfortunate prisoners are enslaved and then eaten, and some are kept alive so the gort larva will incubate in the victim then devour them alive from the inside out. From a young age you have been told these horror stories that are now coming true. The only good Gort is a dead Gort and they must be eradicated at all costs. Set your sails to liberate your people from their ships while defending your villages and waters. Or take the offensive and raid their homelands and slay their children before they grow into an army that will destroy your entire race. The world is a vast collection of many islands and types of creatures, and the Gort are not the only bad creatures you need to watch out for. The gods have made many cryptid beasts and beings that can help you or hurt you. But with the favor of your lord you might be able to survive or at least kill your share of the Gort so you can die with honor. Join my game online TTRPG on Roll20 and Discord called Firewinds of the Seas. It is a pre-gunpowder Medieval Pirate Adventure with some low level limited magic. The story will be like the Odyssey by Homer. With Viking, Mayan, Samurai, or Egyptian, Mythology NPCs as well as homebrew fantasy creatures. This game system is NOT D&D or PATHFINDER, but is much easier to learn and play. ALL PLAYERS ARE HUMAN CHARACTERS in this fighting and warrior game. THERE ARE NO SPECIAL CLASS OR RACE ABILITIES in this system so everyone can equally fight, heal or cast magic and other skills to start, then YOU GET TO CHOOSE which skills to put points in. The RELIGION/MAGIC SKILL in this game system can help you deal with situations and make your weapon attack rolls a little better and give you a little protection from attacks and a small amount of healing. These powers come from your god or deity and give you an edge against the odds but are not a game breaking weapon that make you a God yourself. This is not Harry Potter you won't be able to kill things with a magic wand. Everyone can use their MEDICINE AND HEALING SKILL but if you do it wrong you can end up hurting the ones you are trying to help, especially if you don't have a lot of skill in it. Everyone has the same ability to hit and be hit in this TARGETED AC SYSTEM and head shots do double damage. Damage in other areas could leave you with a peg leg or wooden hand. This is an open world game and there will be lots of bad guys, monsters, and bad creature races to kill, so please no murder hobos. Be a hero and be ready to kill for your kind when good folks need help. We welcome players of all races and sexual orientations so don't be ashamed to be who you are in the fantasy realm, but I do not give anyone any special treatment or privilege because of it. Any real life racism or homophobia, or demanding special privilege, or generally distracting others from the game, will result in being banned regardless of the player's gender or race. I self identify as “Royalty” and my preferred pronoun is “ the/my Excellence”. When you play your first game you will be a “red shirt''. You will get a low stat character and get to play today, it will not be a 4 hour "zero secession" of making characters. After you have played a game we can make characters when everyone is not waiting on each other. I play 3-4 times a week. Usually I start 8-9pm MST (GMT-6) but I could also play in the mornings. Join my discord server and join one of my random pick up games. we also have a regular scheduled game on thursdays that has slots open at 6 pm mst. If you have a group of 3 or more close friends and a set time when you all meet weekly or bi weekly I can run a private game for you and your friends. REQUIREMENTS Please have a human image token or jpeg picture ready to post to discord, and a name for your character before you join. You must have discord audio (video preferred but not required) IF you want to play, jump in and ask for help starting a character! Or message me directly on discord FirewindsOfTheSuns#2162 if you have questions.
