What Type of Dungeon Master are you?
Per the results of the What kind of Dungeon Master are you?: You are moderate in almost all of your decisions. You believe in the rules but you also feel like they can be bent and occasionally broken. Your players respect your ability to compromise and keep the game going.
I like to allow my players freedom to make decisions that they feel matter in the campaign because they are the main characters. A campaign is about the players and if the players aren't having fun, I'm not doing my job as a DM/GM. I see rules as guidelines rather than something written in stone. Sometimes, the players can get sidetracked and de-railed and I will redirect them back the way they need to go or I will roll with it. I set up my plots as outlines to see how things could go rather than how they should go.

Species
Misc
- Wardens: Guard the wall that separates the Northlands from the Midlands. Mostly meant as a hard border to keep the savages from roving south.
- Holy Father Saint Fleur - Patron Saint of the Church of the Holy Sword
- Hvrentra: “Northlands”: Mountainous, arctic conditions, arctic plains and coniferous forests
- Drassin: temperate conditions, plains, forests, marshes, a couple of deserts; “Midlands”
- Midlanders tend to worship a single God, Tiwaz and regard the Northlanders as superstitious; they recognize the old ways but do not see them as anything other than uncivilized. They are the more modern progressive peoples of the continent that worship when convenient.
- Solrassou: Hot, tropical conditions, lots of deciduous forests ; “Southlands”
- Southlanders are more fervent worshipers of one God, Tiwaz; view the Midlanders as weak and Northlanders as heathens that need to be saved. They see the Order of the Resplendent Mother and all magic users as things to be destroyed. But the Church of the Heavenly Sword secretly utilizes a handful of mages as assassins to control politics and hunt down other magic users.

Visual Novel
Project Title: Shattered Universe RPG - Visual Novel (Working title: Rose or Serpent)
Project Description: Rose or Serpent is science-fantasy themed. The story follows Jean Odin as they go from being the survivor of the Wangdaio Colony Blackout to becoming a Giang Province Kowlooni Free Company Soldier dedicated to protecting a young province of miners from a corporate backed insurgency. Jean will get a chance to fight and find love on the battle field towards their goal of building a new family and home for the one they've lost.
I hope to address the themes of dealing with grief, living with PTSD and developing meaningful relationships with the people around you after surviving a horrible ideal. Some of the relationships will be romantic but not all. All the romance options will be open regardless of gender.
