The Hex Files - Eberron University Mystery | Lvl 1-12 | RP heavy
Pathfinder 2e | Campaign
About the adventure
Did you hear about the ghost in the cafeteria? What about the weird cries in the music room, always exactly at 2:42am? The village werewolf? The Thing that lives in the guys’ bathroom, under the sink? No? Well, let me tell you then- You are a bright new student at the Arcanix University of the Arcane in Aundair, ready to study and prove yourself as a prodigy you are! You passed your entrance exams, you rocked the entrance interview, you picked your classes, now there’s just one more thing standing in the way - you must pick a club and attend it regularly, or your entire academic career may be in peril. Most other clubs filled up quickly, but there’s one last one that has caught your eye - the Arcanix Mystery Club. Surely, it can’t be too hard, right? Might be fun to listen to some ghost stories after class… But the mysteries of Arcanix run deeper than you ever expected, and the things lurking in the dark are not always what they appear. Are you ready to uncover the truth, and still turn in your Advanced Hexography paper by midnight? This level 1-12 adventure will allow you to experience the ups and downs of university life, solve countless mysteries of Arcanix and beyond, and survive the scrutiny of some of the most demanding teachers in all of Eberron. Forge strong friendships, solve mysteries, and experience the world of Eberron as a tired but promising student at Arcanix! 📚 This game will start off as a Monster of the Week style plot, but it will then evolve to include longer arcs - and character backstories! 📚

It was an epic arena battle and Robin created a super fun and light atmosphere and a hell of a battle! Certainly an experience I wouldnt want to miss. All the NPCs were fun and the monsters vicious.

Robin is an incredible Game Master who effortlessly creates an immersive and inclusive experience. She/they excel at balancing player creativity with strong storytelling, making the game both engaging and flexible. My favorite moment was when Robin brought a tense fight to life using her amazing voices—it felt like being in a movie! Players who enjoy basic roleplay, collaborative fighting, and a safe, inclusive environment will absolutely thrive in Robin's games.

I have played several one shots (level 20) with Robin now. She provides a fun game and challenging arena to enjoy the game. I highly recommend her if you want to play a one shot.

How will character creation work
🔎 If this is your first time playing in a Pathfinder 2e game, please feel free to reach out to me via Message with any questions you might have about gameplay or the campaign. Character creation guidelines: 🔹 Any alignment is allowed, but your PC must be able to play nice and work with the party. Lone wolves, murderhobos, session derailers, or troublemakers will not be tolerated. 🔹 Free Archetype + Ancestry Paragon 🔹 A simple backstory template will be provided for you to fill out for your PC. ♦️ I would prefer that character concepts be pitched after the group is assembled and we have had session zero. This allows me to explain the adventure more fully and ensure that everyone’s concepts will fit well together.
