the Storycaster
Introductions are in order.
Lo, and well met!
I’m Geoffrey Schumann—your GM, Storycaster, and RealmWeaver with over 35 years of RPG experience. My passion lies in the art of storytelling, crafting immersive worlds, and helping players bring their imaginations to life with the power of theater of the mind, and technology merge to create unforgettable adventures.
Step into Ertha, a realm where the Great Guilds rule, choices shape destiny. Unravel secrets from before the First Age, forge powerful alliances, and explore unique RPG mechanics designed to ignite your creativity.
But remember, the greatest secret of Dicesongs is this: the dice do not run the story. Your character’s reputation, the decisions they make, and how they interact with others—both players and NPCs—are what truly shape their destiny. The dice may guide the journey, but it’s your choices that define the outcome.
So, adventurer, whom do you serve?
Once upon a time…stop me if you’ve heard this one before

Mindmaps and RPGs
Mindmaps can be very useful for RPG gamers. They can help you keep track of the various plot threads and characters in your game and brainstorm side quests and other events. A mindmap can give you a mile-high view of your game, which can be very helpful when trying to make sense of it all. Plus, they’re plain fun to make!
Death’s Sight
To make the deal of Death’s Sight, your soul must be blemished, dammed if you like. For only a cursed soul can see what not any of the living should. You won’t be appreciated, nor pitied, so your immortal soul burnt up like the sun, then your demon will come.
