About the adventure

The old trading city of Kelmarine in the country of Katapesh had been mysteriously abandoned many years ago, and now is overrun with savage gnolls. A Merchant Princess, hired by the mysterious overlords of the desert, The Pactmasters, has been hired to cleanse this city and see its coffers overflow with coin brought by civilization and free trade yet again! However in a land as ancient and magical as Katapesh gnolls won’t be the only problems faced by this new city. Otherworldly forces lurk behind every stone in this land, and before long this Merchant Princess those who work alongside her will realize that they have found themselves entangled in a cosmic struggle that could spell the end for not only Kelmarine, but the Katapesh, or even the world, if it is not solved. In this campaign the Players will start being hired by the Merchant Princess Almah to liberate Kelmarine, but before long (level 5 or so) their fate will be entirely in their hands. This game takes place in a customized version of the country of Katapesh in the world of Golarion. This setting is largely based on The Sultanate of the 9th to 16th centuries (the land spanning from modern-day Turkey/Egypt to North India). My version of Katapesh features all the classics you would expect in an Arabian Nights style adventure. Genies in bottles, Sphinx’s riddles, power hungry viziers, dens of thieves, flying carpets, etc! New players & old are welcome! I have run this Adventure for people who were totally new not just to PF1e, but TTRPG as a whole and they are now avid fans of the hobby.

About me

Since I was a child I've had a passion for adventure and heroic, dramatic lives. When I was a young teen I explored this passion in the dank basements of my close friends where we would have 36 hour TTRPG marathons of dungeon diving and monster slaying. I also pursued living out the epic lives of others on the stage, where I won awards as a competitive actor in the New England One Act Competitions and local Improvisational Acting competitions. After my school years I set out to cut my teeth and gain experience with a life of real world adventure. I've lived in several foreign countries across the globe and become intimately familiar with cultures profoundly different from my own. I've competed in Mixed Martial Arts competitions and worked as a Teacher, Fine Dining Waiter, SCUBA Instructor, Underwater Cave Dive Guide, and more. In the last few years I've returned obsessively to one of my oldest passions, TTRPG; but now I can bring all of my experience from years of being an adventurer and leader into the fold. I bring an easygoing and fun loving attitude that seeks to make others comfortable to manifest the characters they wish to portray into a shared story/simulation with like minded individuals. I bring organizational skills that allow The Table to stay in the action for the duration of a session. I take pride in my ability to craft and run games and sessions that are tailor-fit to a playstyle befitting the Players at The Table, and leave My Tables thoroughly entertained and fulfilled!

Fun and creative, surprisingly have amazing various voices that add depths and nice ambiences to the table. I have 2 adventures with TheAdventurousGM, never disappointed in either one.

I was just about 1 year getting introed to DnD in my 35th birthday, the GM helps me ease the way through it and had lots of fun with it. I went from zero knowledge to know the difference between PF1e vs DnD 5e. Since i like to build unique classes, the GM accomodate my needs and set some homebrew rules that still feel balanced and fun for everyone. The twist in every turn is his forte, we never knew any shenanigan he prepared and thus had lots of fun with it. Very Recommended.

Embarking on adventures with the GM & 5 other players in this game is now officially become our the highlight of our weekend. The GM have extended knowledge of complex pathfinder universe (and other universe I believe), always come fully prepared, mastery with many tabletop apps & tools, reasonable, has good adaptability (like when we suddenly roll nat20), storytelling, spontant humor (when we roll nat1), & voice acting that brought character to live.

TheAdventurousGM is absolutely fantastic. He runs combats that are fun, fair and intense, plays a variety immersive music throughout the session, and masterfully roleplays NPCs that have depth. He also works with you to create a character you like and integrates them and their backstory into the world wonderfully while also providing new opportunities for them to grow. 10/10

Put a pleasing amount of effort into visuals, very fluent in the VTT, just an agreeable and responsive guy in general who makes the world feel lived in

Character creation
Creating your character

Characters will start at first level and use 20 point-buy for stats. All 1st party Pathfinder1e content is available (with some small exceptions I will share via google doc you can see in my discord) Characters will be created as a group during Session 0 so that we may all be on the same page as far as setting, backstory, motivation, etc. We will correspond before session 0 so if you want to bounce ideas off of me and have an idea ready for session 0 that is great! Side note here as I didn't know where else to put this; Session 0 and 1 each will be half price (essentially giving a "free" session 0), but I prefer to collect some money for session 0 otherwise in my experience there are a lot of window shoppers and the players who actually want to play get frustrated because they've had multiple session 0s and no game

What to expect
Preparing for the session

Required: - Join my Discord and send me a message (https://discord.gg/P857Z3H4h9) - A device capable of accessing a website via browser - Microphone with at least intelligible quality Recommended: -Laptop/PC (FoundryVTT doesn't technically support touchscreen/android devices. It also can be somewhat laggy and frustrating to use on very low performance machines. If you only have a low performance or touchscreen device it is still possible to play, but don't expect to be able to fully utilize many of the awesome features of FoundryVTT)

What TheAdventurousGM brings to the table

I will bring EVERYTHING needed for a great time! - A fun loving attitude and skills to keep the game moving and ensure everyone will get their time in the spotlight and a chance to seek the type of fun they enjoy from a TTRPG. - Fully tooled Foundry VTT instance that will make playing even Mathfinder1e a breeze!

Safety
How TheAdventurousGM creates a safe table

Lines & Veils will be briefly discussed at the beginning of the first session and I will type up a quick shared doc while we do so. XNO Cards will be handled with a Foundry module to make things as easy as possible, although if you were to reach out to me another way instead of course I will respect any way you tell me you are uncomfortable with the direction the game is going. Most of the content warnings above can be worked around for this adventure, so if you are interested in playing but one of the content warnings is concerning you definitely reach out and we'll have a discussion! This game takes inspiration and set pieces from the Legacy of Fire adventure path, though (especially after the first arc) I consider it to be closer to an original world and campaign than "playing the Adventure Path". The game will be played on a fully tooled instance of FoundryVTT, with voice communication happening in Discord. You can expect fully functioning scenes with walls, lights, automated bonuses, sounds, elevation, the whole 9 yards!
