New Players

Ahoy there! While I believe this group is extraordinarily welcoming to new players and isn’t super heavy on back story, I know it can be helpful to have a few resources to help you get up-to-speed. With that in mind:
== Characters ==
Here's a list of active Player Characters, if you want to know the current makeup of the group.
Don’t worry about what character class to play. This group doesn’t really optimize like that. Just pick something that sounds fun to play, and we’ll make it work.
The group is currently at level 10, having reached that rank in S07E01.
== Guiding Principles ==
I believe in running a very casual game. We’re not rules lawyers, and put a bigger emphasis on having a good time and telling a good story than whether the D&D rules allow something.
We sometimes have a very large group, and average 5-6 players at the table. This can be chaotic at times, to say the least. Be prepared for a lot of cross-talk. However, if at any point you feel disrespected or drowned out, please let me know.
== House Rules ==
* X-Card: If at any point anyone feels uncomfortable with something we’re doing, they can use the X-Card to ask us to move on, with no explanation needed. And if there’s ever an issue, anyone can call for a break and we can talk privately.
*Rule of Cool: The limit of the Willing Suspension Of Disbelief for a given element is directly proportional to its degree of coolness. Or to put it another way: If you want to swing from the chandelier and jump on the back of that flying monster and ride it around lighting things on fire, I try not to say no: I try to help you find a way to make it happen.
* I Know a Guy: In any situation the players can declare “I know a guy” and quickly describe an NPC and relationship. It’s meant to create that moment in Star Wars when Han decides he can go to Lando for help, but isn’t sure how Lando will react.
* 3 misses in a row becomes a critical hit: Missing all the time sucks. Let’s make it suck less.
*Olivia Hill Rule: No fascists. If you're a fascist, you're not welcome to play in this game. It's against the rules.
