About the adventure

The infamous Red Mantis assassins are feared throughout the world for their ruthlessness and legacy—those they slay stay dead! Yet they are not without honor, so when a group of assassins sent on a dangerous mission are met with unexpected treachery, they must clear their own names while remaining true to their murderous calling, even as greater plots and shocking truths reveal themselves. Prey for Death is a deluxe Pathfinder Second Edition adventure for 14th level characters, and gives players the chance to play members of the world's most notorious assassin's guild. The adventure also includes new items, lore, and character backgrounds, as well as a several powerful monsters ready to threaten high level characters! Experience this adventure using the full suite of Foundry VTT features, using maps, tiles, tokens, sounds, and much more to bring you content which truly cannot be experienced in the same way anywhere else.

Recruiting notes

Grab your front row seat to the "War of the Immortals" in this adventure that ties in directly to the cataclysmic events that are about to change the face of Golarion, and witness the fulfilment of the "Godsrain" prophecy as a sacred assassin dedicated to the god of murder and treachery. This is a higher mini-campaign that should take four to six weekly sessions to complete.

Additional details

How to prepare

A good quality headset will be required to make sure there is no feedback/interference during our game. A webcam is an asset but not a requirement. You will need to create accounts for Discord and Forge - Forge will be the host for our Foundry VTT sessions, and it will give you access to your character between games as well.

What I provide

We will be using the offical made-for-Foundry adventure module, which comes with premium digital only art and cartography, immersive effects and sound design, and original enemies and magic items unique to this adventure.

Gameplay details

While this adventure allows the players to play "evil" characters, who are members of a notorious assassins' guild, this should not be interpreted as permission to disregard or direspect other people at the table. The ability to function within a party should still be your priority when creating a character. Digital safety tools will always be available through Foundry VTT during play. Any language or behavior that makes other players (including the GM) feel unwelcome at the table will not be tolerated.

How will character creation work

Since game play will begin at a higher level, characters will be created off-line, after session zero, in consultation with the GM. The adventure makes certain assumptions about the identity of the party, who are all members of the same assassins' guild. We will be using the following optional rules: Automatic Bonus Progression Gradual Ability Score Increase
