PF2E - Fight Fire With Fire! Age of Ashes [Free Archetype & more] [Lv. 8+]
Pathfinder 2e | Campaign
About the adventure
The mysterious fires burning atop an abandoned Hellknight citadel are but the first of many discoveries waiting to be uncovered in campaign of continent-spanning conflict against cultists, slavers, and a fiery draconic devastation that could unleash an Age of Ashes upon the world! This epic campaign is suitable for roleplaying beginners and veterans alike. Ancient mysteries will be uncovered, mettles will be tested and enemies will fall - hopefully before the Age of Ashes will be ushered in! The game will run from level 1 all the way to level 20 and will be a great chance to get introduced to Pathfinder Second Edition. I will cater to the players' needs and offer to guide everyone through the character creation process in session 0. The game will be semi-serious with the usual light undertones of a group of friends playing and joking about a fantasy game. Over the span of the campaign, the players will also come into the possession of a massive Citadel that they have to repair, build up and administer! Custom Stronghold rules for this have been written by yours truly and very well received by the community.
Beginners and veterans alike, and people of any gender, orientation and ethnicity can join the Call for Heroes of this epic continent-spanning campaign up to level 20 in the world of Golarion. The first session will be half price for everyone, so $10. (Prices for that will be changed once you're signed up). The sessions will take place each Monday at 19:00 Dublin Time. Estimated total campaign length is about 100 sessions. Webcam use during the sessions is highly encouraged but ultimately optional. Alternate rules used: Free Archetype, Gradual Ability Boosts, Ancestry Paragon, plus a small amount of house rules for clarification and improvement. Also: Custom Stronghold rules written by yours truly! *Fighting Fire With Fire is generally not recommended. ;)

What I provide
A wiki-like campaign website that will grow and be be updated over the course of the campaign with locations, NPCs and other relevant details. I will also regularly make memes based on scenes and happenings in the campaign. I have rewritten the Stronghold rules for the administration of the Citadel after book 1 and have created an easy way to track the repairing and rebuilding.
Gameplay details
Note that the tagged content warnings are mostly about what could happen in the game. The themes that are heavily featured in the later parts of the campaign are: slavery, kidnapping and human-trafficking (for non-sexual reasons), as well as fire. Due to it being a fantasy role-playing game where you have to defeat enemies I also expect a lot of violence, death and animal cruelty and death. I will be sending out a consent checklist prior to the game and will modify the content based on your feedback if necessary.

How will character creation work
Characters will be created during Session 0 before the game starts. The GM is happy to help and guide the players through the character creation. Platform used to create characters is Pathbuilder 2E (open to alternatives). Uncommon character options can be selected after an OK from the GM, theme of the character permitting. Rare character options are generally not permitted or are reserved as rewards. Background options from the adventure are strongly preferred and can be customized. Characters receive their Free Archetype of choice at level 1 which needs to be either a multiclass archetype. Additional character rules are Ancestry Paragon and gradual ability boosts.
