About the adventure
Wield the Strength of Thousands in this unique, wholesome Adventure Path set in the Maagambya, a magic college in the Africanesque Mwangi Expanse. Become a student and learn, research, and solve the many problems of the academy. Unlike most most adventures, Strength of Thousands will not last weeks or months, but years - or perhaps decades! You will be able to see your character grow and roleplay their rise as a person, adventurer, and a scholar from a layman to an established, renowned professor of Applied Astral Mathematics. There are also lots of insects buzzing around. This campaign leads from level 1 to level 20.

About me
Psst... you wanna play some Pathfinder? 🎲Edwin 🎲36 🎲non-binary goblin I've been GMing tabletop roleplaying games professionally, full-time, since 2020. I specialize in Pathfinder 2e, but have run a number of other systems, including Alien, Shadowrun, Coriolis, and Blades in the Dark. All my games are 100% LGBTQIA-friendly - and generally friendly! I use no AI generated content - my games are fully human-made! You can catch me on Discord at EdwinMamuszko - just message me and I'll let you into my Lair! ~ 🏳️⚧️ TRANS RIGHTS - NO HUMAN IS ILLEGAL - FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸

Safety
How Edwin (Eater of Heroes) creates a safe table
This is easily the most wholesome of all published Adventure Paths, but still - violence, dark magic and nefarious deeds abound. We will go over everyone's expectations and boundaries during session 0. Players should always feel comfortable in my games, so if you have any issues or things you need to discuss, my chats are always open.
