Abomination Vaults: Enter at Your Own Risk, You've been Warned
Bravery and Foolishness are two sides of the same coin, do you have what it takes to enter the Gauntlight, a Mega Dungeon filled with many horrors.
About the adventure
Dive into the Depths of the Gauntlight! High above the bustling town of Otari looms the Gauntlight, an ancient lighthouse shrouded in mystery and long thought abandoned. But now, its eerie glow has returned, casting an unsettling light over the town and stirring rumors of something sinister awakening beneath the surface. Whispers speak of forgotten treasures buried deep within the ruins, guarded by dangerous creatures, ancient magic, and deadly traps. Only the bravest adventurers dare to descend into the Abomination Vaults, where dark corridors twist and turn, secrets of lost civilizations beckon, and peril awaits at every turn. Will you have the courage to uncover the truth, face the horrors lurking in the depths, and claim the legendary rewards said to lie within? Or will the shadows consume you? The vaults await—dare you answer their call? 🔶Let the Blood Cleanse You: With Gorum's death, those that did not have a spark to begin with have gained a spark of their own. Accomplishing incredible deeds and strength. For you are a Mythic Hero, and tales will be sung of your deeds here today! 🔶Paragon of Culture, Experience, and Knowledge: You are not just anyone; you have learned what it takes to expand your horizons. You are capable of mastering the culture that raised you and learn new skills to heighten your power! 🔶 Break the Chains of Restraint: Show your true self to the world, are you a struggling slime or a powerful dragon? Whatever you are, you can unleash it and show the world you are not afraid! 🐦🔥 Become Immortalized in a World, Forevermore: If you can survive the Tribulations of the Stolen Lands, ascend to a station higher than the skies. You can leave an everlasting impact on my other Golarion. Your Character can become a Deity, grant Blessings or Curses, create an artifact, whatever you design can leave an impact on Golarion for years to come. Let someone else take up your mantle!

About me
"The realm is a mysterious unconquerable land filled with both the darkness of mysterious horrors and the light unquenchable thirst for adventure. Do you seek the thrill of adventure? Perhaps it is romance? Or maybe it is the need to seek out revenge? Whatever it may be, search no further, for there is a story to tell, and maybe just maybe this storyteller can speak your story just like the minstrels of old." Hiya! Most people call me Vinny and even though I am a Game Master, I prefer to simply refer to myself as a Storyteller. Every character, every npc, and every monster or villain has a story to tell and I hope that I can usher in these tales as a way to allow people to forget their woes if only for a few hours. I typically run Adventure Paths for Pathfinder 2e. Without further ado, grab your friends, pick up your snacks, grab your favorite place on that carpet, and let me, as a storyteller, open your mind to the possibilities of a good book, and tell a story worth telling! Feel Free to send me a message if you want to request a game! I have a wide open schedule. I have Several Promotions to reduce the cost of my games. Join my Discord: https://discord.gg/2jevMkaAHN

If you ever wished for greater flexibility in character creation then this is the game for you. Vinny will take the time to go over the spheres of power and might system so that you're not overwhelmed by the incredible variety of content it adds to base DnD. He also makes the game more immersive by using great visuals and music.

Just coming to the end of a full level 1-20 campaign which has lasted for just over one year, and Vinny has been a great GM. He has been very welcoming of new players and has helped to understand the game and it's various rules. Vinny has also been fair and hasn't singled any characters out for excessive attacks during combat, though, having said that, he does play the enemies intelligently if they are intelligent, so he will have them target characters which have proven themselves to be a threat. Overall I have had great fun in this campaign and would highly recommend Vinny to new and experienced players alike, and I would also happily join another one of his games.

An absolutely fantastic GM for Pathfinder 2E! Their deep knowledge of the system shines through in every session, from balancing challenging encounters to indulging players strange solutions and whims. They foster an inclusive and engaging environment, where each character gets a chance to shine. Whether you’re new to Pathfinder or a seasoned player, Vinny will help make sure you are getting the attention you want for your level. Highly recommended!

A positive delight of a GM. Good with the rules, flexible as appropriate, concerned for his players, and fun to play with.
Character creation
Creating your character
🔶 Before your first session, create a character of a level and wealth matching the party in your game's Foundry server. I recommend a premium Pathbuilder account to help you create your character using the variant rules we are utilizing. Additionally, you may request a one-on-one session with me to help build your character. 🔶 For detailed character creation options, refer to the "Homebrew Rules" section. You are welcome to use the Character Creation Discussion channel to discuss your builds with other players.
🔶Party Composition 🔶 Party Level 8 💠Ife Nava: Tenguborn Phoenix Sorcerer 💎 💠Justice: Kashrishi Oscillating Wave Psychic 💠Luminant: Kitsune Sword Saint Monk 💎 💠Nox: Human Light & Vitality Kineticist 💎 Are members who are temporary and will be leaving soon.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
To be fully prepared for Abomination Vaults, I recommend the following: 🔶 Familiarity with Abomination Vaults, utilizing the their respective Player's Guide. 🔶 A Computer or Laptop capable of running Foundry. [We have had some success with a Steam Deck as well.] 🔶 Headset + Headset/Microphone to be able to handle voice chat. 🔶 Discord and Forge accounts.
What Vinny brings to the table
My games are enriched with a customized Foundry server that is always improving as I implement and change modules to grant the best experience I can. It is completed with automation, soundtracks, and additional maps from map designers like Tom Cartos, BaileyWiki, and more! My goal is to give all characters their arcs, centering the attention on them for some time, while improving party morale with moments of intrigue, excitement, and challenge.
Homebrew rules

How Vinny creates a safe table
We are an inclusive table. My Discord has a support channel, where you can create a support ticket. I am the only one with access to the support tickets. If you need to discuss something personally with me, we can also discuss it via voice on Discord. Keep from discussing anything controversial in the real world (Examples include Politics and Religion). This should be a safe place for everyone to play.
