Somnus is a fantastic Game Master with a strong grasp on their own style. Patient and creative, their ability to immerse players into the games through deft usage of Foundry modules is a massive draw. Also, they have a very lovely & calming voice.

Put simply, Somnus is one of my all time favorite GMs. Before I joined the first of the three games I now play with them my pf2e knowledge was limited to say the least. I knew next to nothing about the system and how to build a "functional" character. Between their extensive knowledge and extreme patience they've made the learning process easy, engaging and beyond welcoming. Coming from a long background of d&d, I'd never imagined the transition through systems could be so smooth. The tags StartPlaying allows me to assign to this review can't cover the scope of everything I appreciate about their games. Foundry is an incredible medium, and Somnus utilizes it with expertise I've not seen anywhere else. Their music selection and narrative skills set the scene and tone absolutely perfectly each and every time. The list goes on. The long and short of it is, I couldn't recommend Somnus enough. They're the best, their server community is full of amazing people, and the games I play with them have become an undeniable highlight to my week. GM skills so good, they'll make your brain explode. Hwah.

Brilliant, organized, clear, inviting, and personable. I truly enjoyed this engaging experience and would be delighted to experience more time learning and playing with Somnus. They were fantastic.

Attended one of Somnus's seminars, they were very welcoming, informative, and made sure everything was beginner friendly. Definitely recommend.

How will character creation work
Character Creation: • Ask about any Uncommon or Rare options. • 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/ will be able to import into Foundry). • 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. Before the next game session, I will have a paid private discussion with you that substitutes the Session 0 you missed. If you join just before the next session and I don't have enough time to talk to you, you'll skip and join the session after.
