Player Primer

What to Expect

As a recruit in the Starshard Banner, you’re stepping into a world filled with danger, mystery, and opportunity. The Banner’s mission is simple: explore, secure, and claim the strange and fractured land beyond the Anchor. This dimension was shaped by an ancient
catastrophe, leaving it unstable and teeming with strange creatures, magical phenomena, and treasures waiting to be uncovered.

The Role of the Players:

You’re fresh recruits, tasked with charting new territory, recovering artifacts, and surviving the unpredictable dangers of the pocket dimension. This campaign will be about teamwork, exploration, and resourcefulness. Your choices will shape the story, and the risks you take will determine your rewards—or your downfall.

Key Themes and Tone

This campaign is built around themes of exploration, survival, and
mystery:

  • Exploration: Chart unknown lands, discover forgotten ruins, and uncover relics of a lost era.

  • Survival: Resources are scarce, and danger is everywhere. Teamwork and strategy are the keys to making it out alive.

  • Mystery: The ancient catastrophe that shaped this world is shrouded in secrets, and every step you take brings you closer to uncovering the truth.

The tone of the campaign is gritty and dangerous, but not without moments of levity and triumph.
Expect challenges that will test your characters, morally gray decisions, and a world where survival isn’t
guaranteed. But through teamwork and determination, greatness is within reach.

Player Expectations

By creating a character and joining this campaign, you’re officially agreeing to follow our Player Code of Conduct—think of it as the fine print of adventuring. The rules are simple: be respectful, work as a team, and try not to set the entire table on fire (unless that’s your character’s thing, in which case, clear it with me first).

The Code exists to make sure everyone has a good time, so give it a quick read. By rolling your stats, you’re telling me, “Yes, I agree to these terms and conditions.” Now, let’s dive into the adventure and make some chaos—responsibly!
