To make sure everyone at the table is comfortable and having fun, we use Lines & Veils as part of our safety tools. This helps us set boundaries on content that may appear in the game.
Lines are subjects that will not appear in the game at all.
Veils are subjects that may exist in the world, but will fade to black and not be described in detail.
If something comes up that crosses a Line or Veil, we will immediately move past it with no questions asked.
Players can add Lines or Veils at any time, even between sessions.
Common examples include:
Sexual violence
Harm to children
Graphic torture
Real-world hate speech or discrimination
Anything a player specifically requests be excluded
If a topic is a Line, it does not exist in our game.
Common examples include:
Consensual sex / romance
Graphic violence or gore
Torture (non-graphic)
Drug use
Excessive cruelty
These things may happen, but we do not roleplay or describe them in detail. The scene fades out and moves on.
If something makes you uncomfortable during a session:
Say “X” in chat
Say “Pause”
Message me privately
Use the Foundry "Raise My Hand!" tool
We will immediately skip, rewind, or change the scene. No explanation required.
This is a game, and the goal is for everyone to feel safe, comfortable, and excited to be here.
Using Lines & Veils helps us tell great stories without crossing real-life boundaries.
You can message me privately at any time to add a Line or Veil -- no explanation needed!
