Welcome to Side Character Quest, a one-on-one actual play podcast set in a world where cicadas sing, rivers flow, magic thrums through the air, and all of it’s surrounded by a single massive Wall as ancient as history itself.

Today we're doing something a little different! Instead of diving straight into a new adventure, you are going to get to hear our game master Ty and our guest player Fiona do a "Session 0", where they discuss the game they'll be playing and then create the character who will be the star of the upcoming quest.

Fiona Howat is a TTRPG Actual Play Performer, Podcaster, Improviser, and Voiceover Artist who works with Realms of Peril & Glory. She is perhaps best known for the actual play podcast What Am I Rolling? and the TTRPG talkshow The DM's Book Club.
