Question 1

Accepted Answer

Beyond the Veil is an investigative survival tabletop roleplaying game or TTRPG for short.

Question 2

What is a TTRPG?

Accepted Answer

A Tabletop Roleplaying Game (TTRPG) is a collaborative story telling experience. Usually there are two sides in play, a GM (see below) and a group of players who will act out the scenes put before them. Unlike many types of games there is no traditional ‘winner’ in a TTRPG, the aim is to improvise fun and exciting situations that are collectively entertaining.

Question 3

What is a Game master (GM)?

Accepted Answer

The Game Master crafts the world in which the players will act. They embody the non-player characters (NPCs) and the entities the investigators will be interacting with. The GM also acts as the funnel through which the rules of the game are applied, the ability to make, break, or ignore rules also lies in their hands.

Question 4

What do I need to become a GM?

Accepted Answer

The main thing a GM needs is time and patience. Running a game requires preparation and knowledge of the rules found in the core rulebooks (or via the SRD, once available, for instant access to the basics). For new, or time limited GMs, you can utilise existing investigations published by Wrenegade Studios or other third parties. To create your own stories that chart the career of your group of investigators all you need is a basic narrative to explore and a willingness to improvise. A set of dice won’t hurt either.
