Unexpected visitor. (A pheasant, pecking at the window. I also had a kestrel land about five feet from the bathroom window, but I was bathing at the time.)

Mastodon probably isn’t the best place to start, but on the off chance... I’m looking for a couple more players for my regular Tuesday night RPG sessions in central London.

Novice players and people who aren’t cis guys especially welcome. Reply or DM for more info.
