Every great saga requires a foundation of trust. While the "World-Binder" is a record of your legends, this page is a guide to how we interact as people to ensure the game remains fun, safe, and engaging for everyone at the table.
Before we draw our first maps or roll our first dice, we set the boundaries of our story. We use a Digital Player Deck of Safety to ensure that everyoneβs comfort is prioritized.
The Custom Link: At the start of our campaign (or when we revisit our boundaries), I will provide a custom, one-time link in our chat.
How it Works: You will enter the site, review the Instruction Video, and privately select cards for content you wish to exclude or be warned about.
Anonymity is Key: I will review the final "hot-button" selections with the group. Your individual choices remain anonymousβthe table will know what is excluded, but not who excluded it.
The Result: We craft a world that is exciting for everyone, ensuring our dark dungeons and epic battles never cross into personal discomfort.
During live play, we use the X-Card as our "Safety Valve."
The Action: If a scene, image, or topic becomes too intense or uncomfortable, simply type "X" or use the β emoji in the game chat.
The Response: We stop the scene immediately, "fade to black," and move forward. No questions asked, no explanation required.
A focused mind tells better stories. To keep our energy high during Theatre of the Mind play, we follow a strict pacing guide:
The Midpoint: We take a scheduled 10-15 minute break roughly two hours into every session.
Self-Care: If you need to step away for a "Bio-Break" (water, stretch, or bathroom) outside of the scheduled time, just give a quick "afk" in the Table-Talk channel.
The Pause: Anyone can call for a "Tactical Pause" if a roleplay scene is getting heavy and they need a minute to decompress.
Cinematic Play: We prioritize narrative "coolness" over rigid grid-counting.
The World-Binder Rule: Your characterβs "memory" is this wiki. If youβre ever unsure about a cultural taboo or a historical fact, check the π§ Maps & Lore section!
