About the adventure

A magic school like no other! The oldest and most prestigious magic academy in the world is the Magaambya, an ancient institution founded by the greatest wizard the world has ever known. This wizard vanished long ago, but his sinister enemies plot against his school and those who attend it. Over their long academic career, the heroes rise from humble students to become teachers, and they ultimately hold the fate of the Magaambya magic academy in their hands. Graduates of the Magaambya are among the greatest wardens of the world, but if the heroes can't marshal the strength of thousands who have come before them, the venerable Magaambya might fall! School's in session! The newest students at the venerable Magaambya school of magic must begin their academic careers with tests of their skill and resourcefulness. The heroes can learn much from their teachers and fellow students, but must beware of mysterious secrets and sinister plots. The rigors facing any Magaambya students are steep, but the heroes must also contend with strange infestations and supernatural intruders in the school's ancient halls. Education is far from easy at the oldest and most prestigious magic academy in the world!

About me

So, a bit about me. I'm a TTRPG content creator and GM. I have played many different games over the last 41 years and been a GM almost as long. I have always enjoyed story driven games and strive to include that in the games I run. I enjoy a mix of RP and tactical but can adapt based on the group. I run inclusive games where everyone is welcome. I'm newcomer friendly and am more than happy and willing to teach the game to somebody who has never played before. Safety tools are important to me as I want everybody to have a good time and a safe place to play.

Gord is a fun GM. He's patient with newbies and his knowledge of the game allows for the RP to flow naturally. I also get the sense that he enjoys running the game, not merely "working the mechanics."

Gord is a truly incredible GM. I've played my first game of Pathfinder with him, and it's allowed me to comfortably learn the rules in a fun and comfortable setting. I've been playing RPGs for years, and he's far and above one of my favorite GMs.

I started playing with Gord with a one shot and then joined Mansions of Madness campaign afterwards which we just finished. Lots of fun and really cares about player engagement and fun. Always looked forward to each session. Now joining yet another campaign with Gord because of how much I enjoyed the last campaign!

Highly recommended. As a total beginner to tabletop roleplaying, Gord kept things easy to follow while helping me build the character I wanted to play.

Character creation
Creating your character

We'll be creating characters during Session 0 on Roll20, using Discord for voice communication. The Compendium will be available. All Common options from the available books are on the table and if there is an uncommon option you want, that can be discussed.

The current party

Every Saturday at 5pm PST Session 0 is free.

What to expect
Preparing for the session

A microphone and accounts to Roll20 and discord are all the players will really need. If you have a basic character concept that will certainly help.

What Gord (Two Drunk Dwarves) brings to the table

Roll20 with all the maps and tokens need for play as well as the Compendium. Syrinscape for background ambient sounds and music. A decent knowledge of the Pathfinder 2e rules.

Equipment needed to play

Computer

Microphone

Platforms used
Safety
How Gord (Two Drunk Dwarves) creates a safe table

The game will be played online using Roll20 and Discord so free accounts for both platforms will be needed. A mic will be necessary as well. Reading through the Player's Guide before the first session will be helpful, but not absolutely necessary as we will be creating characters during Session 0. The Players Guide can be found at https://downloads.paizo.com/Strength%20of%20Thousands%20Players%20Guide.pdf Players can expect some fantasy violence during combat in this game, but nothing out of the ordinary for a role-playing game.
