About the adventure
Tabletop role-playing games have long captivated the imagination of countless adventurers, offering them the opportunity to step into fantastical realms and embark on epic quests. Among the myriad adventures that exist, one stands out as a testament to the spirit of exploration, adventure, and mystery: the Kingmaker Adventure Path for the Pathfinder Second Edition. In this sprawling campaign, players are thrust into the heart of the untamed wilderness, where they must navigate treacherous landscapes, unravel ancient secrets, and forge their own kingdom from scratch. As the title suggests, players are not just mere adventurers in this tale; they are rulers, architects of their own destiny, and the conquerors of a wild frontier. The Kingmaker Adventure Path beckons daring souls seeking something more than the usual dungeon crawl or heroic quest. It taps into the primal desire for exploration, beckoning players to leave the comforts of civilization behind and venture into the unknown. The allure of uncharted territories, hidden wonders, and untold treasures pulls at their hearts, enticing them to become pioneers in a land waiting to be tamed. At the heart of the Kingmaker Adventure Path lies the Stolen Lands, a vast and mysterious region filled with dense forests, towering mountains, winding rivers, and foreboding swamps. This untamed wilderness becomes the canvas upon which players will paint their epic tale. The richly detailed setting provides a sandbox-like environment, allowing players to immerse themselves in the awe-inspiring beauty of nature while also confronting its many dangers—from discovering hidden villages of reclusive fey creatures to stumbling upon ancient shrines guarded by fearsome creatures, every step promises new wonders and unexpected challenges. Unlike many other adventures, Kingmaker not only offers thrilling quests and daunting challenges but also gives you a unique opportunity to establish and rule their own kingdom. As the new rulers of the Stolen Lands, you must make critical decisions that shape the fate of your domain. You'll manage resources, negotiate alliances, wage war, and fend off threats from both within and beyond their borders. Beyond the wilderness and the establishment of a kingdom lies an underlying air of mystery that permeates Kingmaker. The land itself holds secrets—ancient ruins, forgotten tombs, and hidden artifacts that whisper of long-lost civilizations and untold power. Explorers will delve into these enigmatic locations, piecing together the puzzle of the Stolen Lands' past and unearthing the truth behind its present state. This Adventure Path offers a dynamic and ever-evolving experience, providing players with a sense of agency and consequences for their actions ensure that no two journeys through the Stolen Lands are the same. The players' choices and accomplishments shape the narrative, as well as the encounters they face, adding a sense of realism and unpredictability to their adventures.

How to prepare
You can get access to the rules of Pathfinder 2e for free at https://2e.aonprd.com/PlayersGuide.aspx or you are free to come in without any homework and learn as you play, it’s really easy enough that you don’t need to read a single page. You will need either a PC or Mac-compatible PC with broadband internet access and electricity to play in this game; a mouse with left and right buttons, as well as a third button and mouse wheel is optimal for online use of Foundry VTT. You will need a Discord account to access the game chat. The Foundry VTT runs on a modern web browser, so there is nothing to install if you have a browser on your computer. If you have an older computer, you might consider using the Foundry Lightweight Client, which is a free lightweight web browser that gives you the most bang for your machine's capabilities. You can get it for free here: https://flc.ruleplaying.com/ If you intend to speak in the voice channel on Discord, you should have a headset with a microphone. *You will be required to set up a push-to-talk button*; you are, however, free to communicate to the group using text only in Discord, but you will then need speakers to hear their chat and the game sounds. Special text-only sessions are available for the deaf and hard of hearing. Don't hesitate to get in touch with me if you'd like to schedule one. Bringing a friend or two would help ensure we don't need to recruit additional players. While text-only is actually my preferred method of play, it does seem difficult to organize those games. Instructions for setting up the push-to-talk button and installing all the needed software are available on my Discord channel (#getting-started), to which you will be supplied a link when you join.
What I provide
I provide the ruleset and scenario and my license for the virtual table top allows you to play through a modern browser. We will be using Syrinscape sounds, which will come through your browser window automatically.
Gameplay details
This game is fantasy-adventure with a lot of hijinks, mystery, and hair-raising situations. Most of the action would be typical for a movie in the genre with a PG-13 rating, but it can occasionally get a little emotionally intense at times. Please consult the content warnings for this campaign and ensure that none of those topics are red lines for you. On the off chance that a player believes things have gone to far, we use a Yellow Card—Red Card system that any player can utilize if the scene is getting too intense; the use of these cards is done through clicking on an icon on the Foundry VTT screen, it is anonymous which player presented the card, but I will take immediate action when one is presented. A Yellow Card lets us fade-to-black and continue with the story on the other side of the disturbing content; a Red Card stops the game and invokes a 15-minute break. After the break, we can discuss what was going wrong and how we can best fix it for the group.

How will character creation work
Players can either select a pre-generated character at the time they sign-in, or they may build a character using Pathbuilder and the setting guidelines provided during session zero. Players joining after session zero should get with the GM more than 48 hours before the next session to get guidance on creating their character if they do not want to play a per-generated PC.
