Begin your New Nation in the Old Lands 👑🌈+

Creating your character

Character Creation: • Ask about any Uncommon or Rare options. • You will gain the Starting Treasure or Sum Gold - up to you - based on the Party Level when you join. https://2e.aonprd.com/Rules.aspx?ID=2662 • We'll have a Session 0 to discuss creating a cohesive group of characters, making connections to the town the adventure is centred around. • If you'd prefer, you can choose from a selection of premade characters that are suited to the adventure and setting. You can then change the name and backstory of them if you'd like to personalise further. • To tie your character to the setting and scenario, I encourage you to look at the official Player Guide for this adventure: https://downloads.paizo.com/Kingmaker+Players+Guide.pdf • We will use FoundryVTT or Pathbuilder to create our characters. Those that use https://pathbuilder2e.com/ can only use it as a reference and must build the character in Foundry. New Joiners: • Anyone that joins later or needs to create a new character, will make a character at the party's current level or choose a premade one and level it up. • You will gain the Starting Treasure or Sum Gold - up to you - based on the Party Level when you join. https://2e.aonprd.com/Rules.aspx?ID=2662 • Before the next game session, I will have a voice-chat discussion with you that substitutes the Session 0 you missed. If you join just before the next session (likely within 48 hours) and I don't have enough time to talk to you, you'll skip and join the session after.

Preparing for the session

• Discord account to talk and text. • Free Sqyre account to play from a web browser: https://www.sqyre.app/ • Clear microphone with either a quiet background or at least push-to-talk. • After joining the game, view the Prep Materials and follow any other instructions. • After joining my discord server, read and click on the 📕 to agree to my community code of conduct otherwise you cannot join the game.

Homebrew rules

• Free Archetype (No Multi-Class). You can choose any archetypes you have the prerequisite for except things like Rogue, Fighter, Wizard, etc. Check in with any Uncommon or Rare options, especially with regional-access. • Automatic Rune Progression. Fundamental runes are auto-gained at certain level thresholds. At certain levels, you gain bonuses to skills too. Magic Skill items still exist in the game, you just ignore the Item Bonus they give you. Full rules here: https://2e.aonprd.com/Rules.aspx?ID=2741&Redirected=1 • Hexploration Redux by Spirit Bell Games. This completely replaces the original Hexploration rules. It is intended to incoporate some Exploration rules and provide more choices for players during travel. • Feats+ and Magic+ from Team+. Specifically to provide more general and skill feats, as well as few extra spells. Not really using anything else from it for now. Already implemented into Foundry.

How Somnus Grey creates a safe table

SAFETY TOOLS ・During Session 0 we will discuss Lines and Veils and have an ongoing document for that. ・I also employ the safety tool Script Change ⏯️ by Beau Jágr Sheldon (http://briebeau.com/scriptchange), which replaces X, N, O Cards. ・A 10 minute break will occur roughly halfway through the session. ・Further details of all tool implementations are provided within the discord server. Feel free to ask any questions for clarification. GAMEPLAY ・Players will explore the wilds by trekking over a large region map, uncovering what dangers or opportunities lay hidden. ・As your nation slowly grows, play out kingdom management turns, during which largescale warfare can threaten to breakout.
