Session Zero is a collaborative starting point where players create their characters together, establish party expectations, and align on tone, safety tools, and table rules before play begins.

Characters are built using the campaign’s creation guidelines, with time set aside to discuss concepts, backgrounds, and how each hero fits into the company and the setting.

Once characters are complete, the group runs a short, low-risk introductory module designed to test abilities, spotlight strengths, and identify gaps in the party’s composition. This trial expedition allows players to adjust choices, refine builds, and gain confidence in the rules before committing to longer and more dangerous adventures.
