Will you Survive the Abomination Vaults Megadungeon?

Pathfinder 2e | Campaign

About the adventure

Enter the megadungeon! Evil stirs in the depths of the Abomination Vaults, a sprawling dungeon where the evil sorcerer Belcorra Haruvex attempted to raise an army of monsters hundreds of years ago. Brave heroes must venture into a dungeon full of undead horrors, monstrosities, and other evil creatures and traps to prevent a spiteful villain from rising again.

Game style

Rules as Written (RaW)

Games that are ran “Rules as Written” emphasize realism and stick to the letter of the rules, allowing players to explore creative solutions while still operating under a consistent rule set. Players have the ability to utilize the rules in creative ways to create awesome characters and moments in the game.

Dungeon Crawl

A “Dungeon Crawl” is a scenario where players navigate a dungeon or labyrinth-like environment for the entirety of the adventure. It emphasizes battling monsters, collecting loot, and avoiding traps to survive to the end!

Combat Heavy

“Combat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.

I've known Sam for many years and have experienced him as a player and as a DM. He's creative, adaptive, and takes the time to understand the rules. As well as able to work with the players to help them understand and even bring their characters alive. It's always fun for to play in Sam's adventures and campaigns

Sam has been hosting a PF2e game for us for around three months now and he's been great. From helping the 5e converts in understanding the differences between the two systems to helping out our completely new to TTRPG players, he's been extremely helpful and patient with us. He's clearly a talented and well seasoned GM with a plethora of tools readily available and is highly recommended.

Sam is one of the best DMs I have ever played with. So far, I'm on the second campaign with him as our DM and I plan on staying in his games as long as he continues to host. He allows for a lot of roleplay from the character, allows characters to develop and lays down amazing stories. He is also quick to adapt to player shenanigans and adapt the story around it, whether it is good or bad. If you are looking for a good DM that is amazing at story, very inclusive and a lot of fun, check out Sam.

Additional details

How to prepare

Players need a mic and discord for voice chat. An account on the Forge VTT will be needed as well. Foundry works best when used on a desktop or laptop. It is recommended that players read the Abomination Vaults Players guide.

What I provide

The game will be played using the official modules on the forge, bringing about a beautiful play experience. In addition, additional modules and Pathbuilder files are available for any player interested in playing something from Battlezoo. Battlezoo is 3rd party content that incldues new amazing playable races such as evil eyes, intelligent weapons, gargoyles, and other strange creatures. It also includes two new classes, the eldamon trainer and elemental avatar.

Gameplay details

In a session 0 I like to go over a brief introduction of all the players. I always want to make sure that everyone is comfortable and enjoys the game. I can provide a list of potential topics that can be an issue for players who would like one. Players are a team and are all here to enjoy the game together, a mutual respect between all players is expected.
