About the adventure
Welcome to Geb, the undead nation where influence is power and power is eternal. In this land of the everlasting, where the elite have ruled for centuries, you stand at the precipice of greatness. Do you have what it takes to rise above the rest and claim your place among the Blood Lords? In Geb, strength alone is not enough. To ascend, you must master the intricate dance of politics, forge powerful alliances, and navigate the treacherous waters of diplomacy. Deals must be struck, friendships tested, and perhaps a backstab or two employed. It's a game of wits and will, where every move counts and every misstep could be your last. The local Blood Lord of Greydirge seeks skilled troubleshooters to resolve a pressing issue. As a reward, she offers a prize coveted by allāreal estate. This could be your golden ticket to gaining favor with Geb's power players and securing your future. In a world where connections open doors, will you seize this chance and prove your worth? Dive into a world of power struggles and shadowy dealings. Unveil secrets, outmaneuver rivals, and carve your path to supremacy. The stakes are high, but the rewards are higher. Prepare yourself for an unforgettable adventure filled with suspense, strategy, and supernatural intrigue. Your journey to power begins now. Are you ready? šØ I partner with the talented artist Jay Echo! Players who sign up to play with me can commission them for a character art piece at a special rate! https://linktr.ee/Jayecho

About me
Greetings, fellow adventurers! Iām Gerik, your dedicated Game Master! For years, Iāve been immersed in the world of tabletop RPGs, guiding brave heroes through fantastical worlds. I bring a blend of creativity, humor, and immersive storytelling to every session. I look to foster a table community where everyone can laugh together and feel welcome. I have been described as theatrical, high-energy, and a bit of a madman when playing a nefarious villain. But above all, I am a GM who wants you to have a good time, and I'll do my best to make that happen! But don't just take my word for it, check out my reviews to see what others have to say! My tables support 100% human made art! šØ I do not accept generative AI in my games.

What to expect
Preparing for the session
Reading the Blood Lords players' guide is a must: https://downloads.paizo.com/BloodLords_PlayersGuide.pdf Players can expect an adventure that focuses on the complex politics of the nation of Geb, and what it is like to ascend to power in a nation ruled by the undead. Combat can't be the only path to power though. Players will need to be shrewd and pick sides in the never-ending web of politics that can only come from a situation where everyone involved has all the time in the world to scheme. Players should be comfortable with RPing with their fellow players and NPCs as socializing will play a large role in this campaign. Getting into a roleplaying mindset!
What Gerik brings to the table
A GM style that focuses on character-driven narratives. Players in my games are encouraged to explore their characters' motivations and personal growth, and how their unique personalities, values, and desires shape their actions and evolve. Curated Foundry modules designed to streamline the Foundry VTT experience. Added emphasis on individual players' goals as they seek their position as Blood Lords. Additional content/mechanics to drive home the political intrigue theme. Curated sound design to set the mood.

How Gerik creates a safe table
Each player who joins my server is required to sign my onboarding document, where I outline all my table/community rules. These cover topics such as behaviors that will not be tolerated as well as other housekeeping topics. Refusal to sign this document disqualifies players from playing at the table to ensure the safety of all members who do.
