FG License: Ultimate
Game System: SWADE
Voice Client: Discord
Time Zone: USA Mountain
Day of week and time: Friday nights 7-10 pm (running as late as 11 pm when appropriate)
Planned Start: March or April 2025 (depends on recruiting)
Duration: Long-term campaign
Language: English
Role-play/Combat: This will be an investigative campaign, but there will be combat
Number of Players: 1 current, looking for +3
Experience Level: I've been GMing since the 1970s (multiple systems), players need no experience
Campaign Influences: Millennium (TV), The Night Stalker (TV), The X-Files (TV), Stephen King (books), John Connolly (books), Laird Barron (books), Hellboy/BPRD (comics)
Tone: Serious, PG-13/R-rated
If you're not interested in a long-term campaign, or if you have a history of conflict with others, or if you have problems with being responsible (showing up on time, sober), please don't apply. I want the campaign to be fun for everyone.
Characters will be private investigators, former law enforcement, hackers, college students, professionals—the specifics of your background are less important than the things you have in common. Each character has brushed against something that can't be explained by the mundane world. That exposure to the unnatural has left its mark in some way. Maybe the PC has The Sight (able to see things hidden from normal sight). Maybe the PC has some sort of sensitivity to the presence of the supernatural. Maybe the PC can learn things by touching items once held by a suspect or a missing person (psychometry).
This isn't sorcery or superpowers, just the option of a minor gift. Whatever it is, this ability sets the PC apart from others, and it's what makes the character a very special asset.
The campaign will be a mix of "monster of the week" type scenarios and an overarching plot. As this is more dangerous and less pulp, we'll use Gritty Damage.
