5 Principles of the Gaming Table

Collaborate to ensure everyone shines in the story and the GM will fosters teamwork to enriching the adventure.
Use creative approaches to challenges, understanding that some innovative ideas may stray from the mechanics and will require adjustments to maintain pacing.
Respect and decorum are vital for a harmonious game. When the table is split on what to do, the GM will ask for a table poll to vote on a group consensus.
In-game tensions should stay separate from real-life relationships. Conflicts should be addressed separately and the GM informed of anything affecting the game.
Gaming sessions will inevitably need to schedule around important life events and sessions shall be planned ahead to facilitate participation.

7 Assurances from the Gamemaster

I'll work on coaching examples of foundational tactics to boost teamwork. Players are encouraged to craft adaptable characters to take on multiple roles in flexible party strategies.
Character death isn't permanent unless chosen by the player. When a character "dies" in-game, they're temporarily removed from the immediate story. The GM and player will decide together what happens next. Having backup characters can add new layers to the party dynamics.
Challenges will have multiple solutions within characters' capabilities. I'll avoid creating no-win situations due to the party's limitations, though I may use clear no-win scenarios to push the plot forward.
Expect a narrative style akin to pulp action: character-driven plots, clear paths forward, minimal complexities, and a world that embraces colorful heroes (think Discworld).
I'll provide a simplified journal outline (NPCs, Locations, Quests), with the GM adding details as the adventure unfolds. Players manage their own notes and contributions.
I'll share a general adventure design breakdown to shed light on the power balance. Adventure arcs may diverge from these design targets.
All feedback will be taken in earnest and considered within the broader context. I aim to improve the gaming experience and my skills as a GM and some changes might not be immediately noticeable.
