About the adventure
The four Horsemen. Nearly deific entities from the Plane of Abbadon. Long have they been ignored in the balance of souls between heaven and hell, and that suited them just fine. Over the long Eons they have ridden to collect the souls of others forgotten in the tabulations of good versus evil, and their armies grow. The time has come for the horsemen to take an active roll on the Material Plane. Great changes are coming and they have seen the need for Avatars of their will. The horsemen and their mistrustful allies, The Deadly Sins, have taken the first steps of the apocalypse. Destruction on a scale the Material Plane has rarely seen, has exploded upon it's surfaces taking hundreds of thousands of lives in a single night, forever altering the terrain of the world. And in the midst of all this death, the seeds of greater reaping have been sown. For among the denizens of these ravaged lands, the Harbingers have chosen their avatars, and they have arisen. This evil themed Sandbox campaign will let the leashes off for creating any character you want and letting loose however you want. Using (Primarily)Pathfinder 1st Edition, along with the optional Mythic rules, characters in this campaign will become truly powerful. With a primary task of collecting the souls of everyone they can on the Material Plane, there will be lots to kill, and loot! Optional Kingdom building as well to put any underlings collected to work and build an empire. Characters made this way can get extremely complex and so I ask that only players with decent familiarity apply. For those without PF experience I can also do a PF2e, or DND 5e version for simpler characters.

About me
A little about me: I am a 37 year old Canadian house spouse. I am married with 4 kids soon, a cat that STILL doesn't understand gravity at all, and new second rescue cat. I am silly and fun-loving, but structured and a bit compulsive. I sometimes get so focused on something I'll forget other things, and need to be reminded. I am laid-back and tend to go by the seat of my pants, but I always keep things on track and consistent. I like to use a mix of Fantasy grounds and Discord, and have my own server that I manage for my games. I love overpowered characters, I feel like the more power the players have the more fun they can have, and the more options I have to throw at them. My personal favourite to play is Pathfinder with the Mythic rules and working towards a Deific character.

Creating your character
Characters will start at lvl 1. I allow all Official content, and am open to third party. Characters will be high stats for powerful characters, and ever increasing Deific powers. Characters can me made beforehand or in session.
Session 1 was June 5th 2023. Currently LVL 20, TIER 10.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
I use Fantasy Grounds along side discord for voice. I prefer players have a headset with mic for reduced background noise and clear vocals, but it is not mandatory.
What Atracious brings to the table
I will make up custom maps for the campaign for recurring locations and draw rough maps on the fly as needed. Several Fantasy Grounds extensions to make the advanced character easier to handle and manage.
Homebrew rules
Background skills HP on level up is roll then choose between roll or average. Flanking is easier for allies and foes by being a line from any corner to any corner passing opposite sides (basically adding 5 feet either side of RAW) Magic item crafting gets a +100% base craft speed for every 5 you beat the DC by. (IE on a DC 15 craft a 20 will be 200% base, a 60 would be 1000% or 10x speed) Mundane crafting can be sped up to magic crafting speeds of 1k a day if you have relevant magic item crafting (arms and armor makes mundane weapon and armor crafting 1kgp a day rather than silver pieces per day or per week)

How Atracious creates a safe table
I use XNO card system or similar, I take breaks every 2-4 hours, I always try to get a feel for what the players want and are comfortable with. This particular campaign will be a more mature content game as the party will be avatars of the horsemen of the Apocalypse trying to reap all the souls of the material plane. With a sandbox style the players can help steer the content towards or away from anything they desire. I will keep a list of anything that would be considered X content and prevent anything like this coming up, or briefly skimming the events to leave out details.
