About the adventure
Enlist with the Agents of Edgewatch in this 1-20 Pathfinder 2e campaign! You're a city guard in Absalom, the City at the Centre of the World, Responsible for solving petty disputes, arresting criminals, solving crimes, and fighting monsters. It's a hard job, but with the safety of the city at stake, you'll need to keep your bravery, wit and heart to see that justice is dealt. The adventure begins at the start of the highly anticipated Radiant Festival, Absalom's once-a-century world fair! It's your first day on the job, ready to protect the citizens, tourists, and diplomats alike. You've got your hands full, but do you have what it takes to protect the city and solve an increasingly dangerous investigation? This game is full of high octane action, fun NPCs, and a sprawling urban backdrop. Welcome, recruits, to the Agents of Edgewatch!

About me
Hi, I'm Seán. A game master of 7+ years and a TTRPGer for over 10 at this point. Since the panini I've bounced between jobs a fair bit as many have, and have recently decided to try giving running public games a shot in hopes of being able to step away from traditional employment. I'm a big ol Tolkien and fantasy nerd, favourite books, games, shows and movies include LOTR, The Dresden Files, Avatar the Last Airbender, Fullmetal Alchemist, The Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Mass Effect, and Dragon Age. I live in the Scottish borders, a little while out from Edinburgh. So while I'll mostly be running games online, get in touch if you'd like to arrange an in person game!
View Profile →Character creation
Creating your character
We can create characters on Pathbuilder and Foundry VTT, an app similar to roll20. The link to which will be posted in the discord before the session starts. Players will start at level one for the first adventure, with later adventures starting at higher level. You don't need to bring a character, just a rough concept. Do you want to be an archer, shooting arrows from afar? A warrior protecting the party? A healer keeping the party alive and healthy? Or, do you want to be casting spells, and mastering the arcane arts? this will give us a place to start and we can hone in on exactly what to do from there. If you aren't sure, I'll provide some pre-generated characters for you to choose from.
Weekly on Sundays @ 8pm Scottish time
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You won't need to bring anything, just a good microphone and a discord account made at least 10 minutes before joining the game. Foundry is browser based and locally hosted on my own computer, so it'll only be live half an hour before, and after the session, though in future I will be looking into a more permanent game server. Webcams are optional.
What Seán brings to the table
I'll be providing foundry, a community discord with mod team and discord bots, as well as my own library containing all existing PF2e rulebooks which are visible as PDFs in the Foundry App. Foundry has all game rules, ancestries, backgrounds, classes, items, and spells preloaded in the world. We'll also make use of a number of digital tools in foundry such as digital dice and a number of optional settings to make the gaming experience easier.

How Seán creates a safe table
Session zero will consist of Character creation, sharing of the google doc and topics therein, we'll also go over the use if X cards in Foundry VTT as well as a basic primer for anyone new to the foundry system. We'll also cover helpful tips, links, and tools to help you prepare for your first steps into Pathfinder 2e. After session zero, for the first half hour of each game we'll take some time to go over a few documents, including campaign notes, homebrew rules, RPG consent lists, as well as lines and veils. Everything will be accessible via shared google document that anyone can edit and will be pinned in the group discord channel. you can find the link to the server here; https://discord.gg/Wp8cqDsTq7 Please feel free to join the discord if you would like any additional information, or message me through the startplaying app. I'll do my best to respond as soon as I can.
