Player Sign Up: Pasion de las Pasiones: Día de Despedidas

Our Mission:
Whenever possible to promote and feature tabletop roleplaying games created by individuals or by independent presses. 
Across the channel people of color will represent at least 50% of the total cast members.
We aim to present a variety of stories and cast members from outside the US and will actively seek out these opportunities.
Storytellers are responsible to make their worlds diverse- representing NPC humans across the spectrum of humanity that exists in real life. This will be through coding and explicit description. This must be done thoughtfully, without racist representations and stereotypes.

We stand for the following, if you do not, please don't apply.
• Black lives matter.
• Trans women are women. Trans men are men.
• Love is love, all LGBTQIA+ are valid.

Game Synopsis

Dante Delgado was a well-traveled, exuberant man. Was. He was living a full life that was cut short. Some would say suspiciously so. It’s the day of his funeral and all seems well despite the motley array of persons who seem to have been invited. Other than family, no one seems to know each other or how Dante knew them all. Quite mysterious circumstances. So who is all in attendance? And why such a cruel fate for a kind man?

About the Game Master

Monroe Wells-Soto (he/they) is a queer Latine from the PNW. While primarily a game designer and sensitivity reader who curls around his hordes of notebooks, he does on occasion perform in APs peacocking.
They have a deep love of storytelling and adding whimsy to everyday life.

The session 0 will be Sept 26th, Noon CDT.

This one shot runs October 17th with a call time of 1:30pm CDT. Do you have any conflicts?

I have read all above information. Other than listed conflicts. I shouldn't any conflicts such as previously scheduled events that would prevent me from attending. I understand that Nerds With Dice doesn't require me to attend in the event of an emergency. Or at the sacrifice of my well being in anyway. (This includes but is not limited to my mental health, physical health, and comfort.)

• Checking in with players throughout the week for the length campaign to ensure that everyone is doing well and to nurture a safe relationship anchor for uncomfortable conversations.
• Bringing concerns to the table without throwing players under the bus or pitting players against each other.

* Whenever possible, ST are NOT responsible to produce or moderate their own stream- allowing them to focus on the game and players

Cast Members are responsible for:

• Table safety (including providing updated consent & safety forms whenever something changes)
• Arriving prepared to call time 30 minutes prior to live stream for tech & connection building
• Having honest conversations with the ST and other players about things that are going well, and when things aren't.

Health & Safety

NWD values the health and safety of our community above all else. If for any reason you ever have concerns about a show, cast, player, DM, community member, or chancellor, please reach out to NWD staff. You will never be retaliated against, and we want to help you bring your best to your story with your strongest mental and physical health to every game. 
Speaking with a chancellor implies a certain amount of confidentiality. We will not share/disclose personal health or family situations to the cast or DM of your show. Where possible we will also keep your identity private as well.

Leaving the game

If for any reason you decide that a stream is no longer telling the story you want to tell, it's okay to leave that game. We ask that you connect with a Chancellor first so that we can work with you, the cast, and the graphics/production departments to make the necessary changes. 
Leaving a game never results in retaliation or loss of future opportunities with NWD. 

Do you understand the roles and responsibilities above?

Casting, Diversity, and Accommodation

In regards to our above policy that people of color will represent at least 50% of total cast members. We recommend that whenever possible STs make an effort to cast two or more people of color. NWD believes that no marginalized person should be excluded from a game due to bigotry. As such we ask that STs make their table a safe place for women, members of the LGBTQ+ community, and more.   

There is no obligation to cast any Chancellor or member of NWD staff. No retaliation for not casting a Chancellor or staff member.

Do you understand?

Is there anything we can do to help? Any needed accommodations?
