Long time Player and GM. I run one shots & campaigns. Welcome to my worlds :)
WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR IN ANY GAME I RUN OR PLAY IN:
Please be respectful towards the game. Even with games set around a fun concept...I'm looking to hold an actual serious campaign, and there's nothing worse than "that guy" who ruins a serious scenario by pissing on something. This campaign is not a 100% serious affair, as it's not a play, and I want everyone to have fun, but there have to be some limits.
If there are any problems with the game, your character, another player, or the group, please be open to talk it out with us rather than rage quit the game. I do take what you say into consideration in how I run my games, so please don't be afraid to approach me.
Get along with other characters - don't be the brooding rogue who is only stuck along because the game master has to have a reason. You're going to make a new character if that's the case.
Show up on time to games and let me know when you can't, or have to leave early. I will let you know in advance if I cannot make a session, and I expect you will do the same.
If you are in one of my campaigns, stay active (reasonably) on discord. I'm not asking you to do any work here, just check the chat once every few days on your phone.
Be ready to have fun!
TL;DR: Use common sense and don't be a terrible human being
PLAYER AGREEMENT
Welcome to our gaming table! By joining our campaign (or one shot!), you're agreeing to contribute to a positive, inclusive, and engaging adventure for everyone. Here's what I expect from each player:
Respect and Inclusivity: Treat all players with respect, regardless of race, gender, sexuality, or any other aspect of identity. Discrimination and bullying are not tolerated and will result in removal from the game.
Communication: Stay reasonably active in our Discord channel, especially if this is a campaign. Use it to communicate availability, ask game-related questions, share feedback, and update the group if you can't make a session or will be late.
Conflict Resolution: Approach conflicts or issues with an open mind. If you have a problem with another player, the game, or a character, bring it up respectfully. Let's try to solve it together.
Character Engagement: Play in a way that enhances the group dynamic. Avoid dominating the spotlight and support moments that focus on other characters.
Session Preparedness: Come to sessions prepared. Know your character, have your materials ready, and be ready to dive into the adventure.
Fun and Common Sense: Remember, we're all here to have a good time. Use common sense, and don't be disruptive to the game or the group's enjoyment.
GM AGREEMENT
As your GM, I'm dedicated to creating an engaging, respectful, and fun environment. Here's my commitment to you:
Inclusivity and Safety: I will not engage in or tolerate racist, sexist, transphobic, homophobic, or otherwise discriminatory behavior. I'm committed to maintaining a safe and comfortable space for all players.
Respecting Boundaries: I acknowledge and will respect the use of the "X card" or any signal used when a player feels uncomfortable. We'll immediately address and adapt the situation as needed.
Player Agency: Your choices matter. I promise not to take away your agency. Even in situations like suggestion spells, your character's actions will result from your decisions.
Seeking and Implementing Feedback: I am open to and encourage feedback. If we have an ongoing campaign, I will regularly check in with you to gather your thoughts and suggestions to improve our game.
Collaborative Storytelling: Our campaign is a collaborative storytelling effort. I'm eager to incorporate your ideas, character backstories, and decisions into the narrative.
Fair and Impartial Gameplay: I commit to fairness and impartiality in my role as GM, ensuring a balanced and engaging experience for every player.
Adaptability: I'm willing to adapt the campaign, rules, or narrative to enhance enjoyment and inclusivity for all players.
I, Madame Architect, pledge to uphold these commitments, fostering a game environment that is enjoyable, respectful, and engaging for everyone. Let's create an unforgettable adventure together!
