Strength of Thousands | Study Magic and Stop an Ancient Evil
Pathfinder 2e | Campaign
About the adventure
Nestled in the Mwangi Expanse is one of Golarion's greatest schools of magic: the Magaambya. As the newest students of this prestigious institution, you'll find that there's no shortage of work to be done. You'll need to study diligently to advance through the academy's ranks and face its trials. But this won't be an ordinary scholarship for you (if any time at the Magaambya can be called that). An ancient horror is returning to wreak havoc and death on the school and the rest of the world, and you'll find yourselves called upon to put an end to it. Only through skill, cunning, and courage will you survive this threat. Strength of Thousands is an epic adventure path that will take your party from level 1 all the way to level 20. The Gamemastery Guide's Free Archetype rule is used to ensure that every character has some magical skill, and I'll be modifying the rules for that to give you a little more freedom of choice. Players of all skill levels, from beginners to experienced hands, are welcome to join. All my games are LGBT+ friendly.
The party is level 12 and includes an anadi magus, tripkee kineticist, and dwarf champion. Due to somewhat tumultuous changes in my life, I cannot guarantee that this game will continue beyond early July.

Steve is a great dungeon master! He is very knowledgeable about Pathfinder 2E and Foundry VTT, so sessions go smoothly and we can get right to gameplay. Great demeanor as well. Looking forward to more great sessions!

New review
I have been having a blast playing Abomination Vaults with Steve! He is incredibly knowledgeable about PF2e and Foundry, including Foundry's many helpful plug ins. Sessions flow smoothly. Steve has a good sense of pace. While I have lots of experience with pathfinder, I have seen Steve help out new players with lots of patience, getting them up to speed efficiently. Thanks Steve for great games! 100% recommend.

Additional details
How to prepare
Each player will need a working mic and an account on Discord (which we'll use both for voice chat and for communicating between sessions). Players should also download the player's guide (https://downloads.paizo.com/Strength%20of%20Thousands%20Players%20Guide.pdf) for advice and new backgrounds appropriate to the Adventure Path.
What I provide
-Foundry VTT -Strength of Thousands imported modules -A suite of character voices
Gameplay details
Session 0 will cover player introductions and character creation. It will probably not run as long as a standard game session. We'll be using a Foundry module for the X Card. Session 0 will be free for all players, and session 1 will be half price.

How will character creation work
We'll be using standard character creation rules. This campaign uses the Free Archetype rule from the Gamemastery Guide by default, but I'll be modifying those rules to be a bit more liberal. Players are encouraged to use Pathbuilder (available free online and on mobile devices) to build their characters. Common options are always available; Uncommon and Rare options will require approval, but it will most likely be given. Pregenerated characters will also be available for anyone who wants one.
