About the adventure
For experienced Pathfinder 2E or players who are new to the game and would like to learn. Millennia ago, the dwarven creator god Torag shook the earth and called the dwarves to the surface in the Quest for Sky. Taargick rose from the hardships of this journey, becoming the Sky King of Highhelm. For centuries he ruled, creating monuments to Torag and the accomplishments of his people… And then he vanished without a trace. Invited guests of the clans of Highhelm find themselves embroiled in a story of seekers, survivors, and heroes discovering the Sky King’s Tomb. The Sky King’s Tomb Adventure Path begins in Highhelm, a fortified dwarven metropolis built within a mountain. With a continuous history stretching back more than 9,000 years, the Five Kings Mountains and its dwarven culture are truly ancient—and they know it. Statues of legendary heroes, friezes of grand victories, and even millennia-old graffiti remind residents of their storied past, inspiring them to emulate and even surpass their ancestors. Yet that same past can bring stagnation. Cleaving to tradition, dwarven society is often slow to change and slower to question its own shortcomings until some new discovery threatens the status quo. They don’t yet know it, but your characters are about to make just such a discovery! The Sky King’s Tomb Adventure Path explores dwarven history and the Darklands, taking your PCs from levels 1 to 10 as they uncover forgotten lore, challenge old legends, and discover a mythical site that could change Five Kings Mountains culture forever. Despite the dwarven focus, this campaign isn’t exclusive to dwarves; PCs of almost any ancestry can excel and become engaged in the story. Whether they already live in the metropolis of Highhelm or are honored guests of the dwarven Clan Tolorr, the PCs begin the adventure in Highhelm and later explore a wide range of subterranean sites.

How to prepare
Players will need a mic and Discord. This campaign will use Foundry Virtual Tabletop, so players may want to review tutorial videos on using Foundry. The Player's Guide for this campaign can be found here: https://downloads.paizo.com/SkyKingsTombPlayersGuide.pdf
What I provide
The DM has the full suite of Foundry VTT content, and thus you will only need the free demo version. The DM will also provide all of the necessary modules and plug-ins for Foundry VTT, including all the 3rd-party extensions used to create a more streamlined game with less downtime. All the source books for Pathfinder are made available through Foundry and the DM's licensed Paizo content. The DM also has a Discord community with over 100 players and DMs from other campaigns, providing a forum for chats, memes, character builds, strategy, roleplaying and more!
Gameplay details
At the start of this campaign, you and your party members have arrived in Highhelm as guests of Clan Tolorr, known for its dedication to uncovering, preserving, and teaching history. The six unique Backgrounds present various reasons your PCs might have been scouted, recruited, or invited to visit (as well as a contact you have as a result). While you aren’t required to choose one of these backgrounds, your character’s backstory should involve some reason Clan Tolorr respects and has reached out to you.
