- Safety Rules/Limits
- [[MCDM Tabletop Safety Toolkit.pdf]]
- [[MCDM Tabletop Safety Checklist.pdf]]
- If you have any hard/soft limits for topics you do not wish to have be a part of this campaign, please let me know about them
- I see this game as a fun, heroic adventure, so there should be no/minimal dark or horror or gore elements beyond minimal descriptions of the results of battles against monsters
- Nobody had any limits or concerns voiced to the group, but I'm here if you have any that come up
- Campaign Notes/Session Recaps
- Who will take the Party notes and how will they be shared with the group?
- Luke will continue to take the party notes for now
- Terri will continue to update the website with info as needed
- Who will track the Party loot?\
- Someone probably wants to identify that new bag some time soon... ;)
- I will ask the party to do the session recap at the beginning of a new session. I will add anything I think was relevant but not mentioned if I see the need, but the goal is for you all to tell me what you found relevant and share with everyone how YOU saw the story unfold.
- This can be anyone in the party, or all of you pitching in together
- Session Scheduling
- What happens if there is a no-show?
- What is acceptable behavior in this regard?
- Do we sit your character out or have another party member puppet them?
- We will continue with what we have been doing so far:
- If you know enough in advance to allow for schedule adjustments, we will do that as needed
- If it is a last minute thing, like on-call work, then let us know as soon as you can and we will adjust as needed - including asking if you want your character to be puppeted or to sit out depending on the current campaign situation
- Expectations of Players
- You control your character sheet
- I review them from time to time to make sure you aren't missing anything glaring, but I am not an expert in your characters, you are.
- Limited phone/device use, please (other than for your character sheet, of course)
- If I notice people paying more attention to their phones than the game, I will call for a break or end the session
- we need to listen to our brains when they're telling us we need a break
- Social Contract
- Respect for everyone at the table
- Cheating isn't cool, and honestly I don't get why anyone does it
- If you want to try new things, let's talk about it and see what we can make happen!
- We play to lift
- My Style
- We are learning how this particular group does this together, so please let me know if I'm overlooking a rule or misunderstanding how something should work
- having said that, please don't make it a habit to tell other players they are playing wrong
- characters do what characters do, even if it isn't an optimal choice for the situation
- if there's a rules situation happening address it to me
- Storytelling with my friends is my goal here
- My favorite rule is the Rule of Cool!
