What I provide

🖥️FoundryVTT + Discord 🎨Custom maps and NPC art ⚔️Tactical, creative combat 🤝Player introduction 🖥️I use a combination of FoundryVTT and Discord to run games. I use discord for voice and to share notes and images, and of course to talk! No webcam required. 🎨I create all of my maps using Dungeondraft, and most major NPCs have art done by myself or commissioned from an artist. I want to present a quality experience and making most of it myself is the best way to help insure that! ⚔️Combat should be interesting but not draining! I tune my combats to be approachable for any skill level while leaving room for tactics and creativity to really shine. Difficulty from mechanics, environment and interesting monsters are my goal more than pure difficulty through numbers or levels. For more experienced parties, I can tune up the difficulty as desired. 🤝Before a player's first session I'll arrange a short 1 on 1 to address any questions, concerns and catch the player up to speed. This should only take about 15 minutes and is mainly to make sure the player and the party/campaign/myself are a good match for each other. 📜While I run things by the book by default, I am always happy to facilitate players getting creative and working with them to make an idea work, especially when it comes to character concepts!

Gameplay details

⚠️Content Warning Explanations⚠️ Insects: There may be encounters with giant bugs as enemies, by request their icons and descriptions can be replaced with something more friendly. Scars and Life-changing Injuries: The wilds leave marks upon many people, and even the world is scarred. While they do not play a prominent role in the story itself, NPCs and players may have scars and injuries. Skeletons and bones: Life is harsh and not everything survives. Non-graphic bones occasionally dot battle maps, and occasionally skeletons and other undead may show up in quests. Body horror: Aberrations are common enemies within the wilds, nothing more extreme than the official art for them. One custom background may lead to some minor body horror elements, but will be discussed at session 0. 🎗️Safety Tools🎗️ Aftercare: I will do a brief group check in after sessions, and will be available for at least 30 minutes after the end of session to address any issues through discord as needed. Breaks: At around the midpoint of each session, we will take a 5-10 minute break. Lines and Veils: Prior to session 0, or the next session if you join after the campaign starts, I will DM you a PDF to fill out. X-Cards: I use a foundry module allowing for players to raise cards within the tabletop anonymously as needed. 0️⃣Session 00️⃣ During Session 0 we will go over Lines and Veils, and expectations from both players and myself. After that we will go over a brief overview of the world, decide on optional rules and build/finalize characters.

How will character creation work

🎲Character Creation General🎲 Characters will be starting at level 1, using standard Pathfinder 2e creation rules. The only exception is that PCs will start with 30gp instead of the standard 15gp. We will go over and finalize characters during session 0. 📋Character Creation Optional Rules📋 These rules are optional, and the party will decide on which ones to use during session 0. For more information, refer to the player's guide. - Free Archetype By default I tend to run this, but it should not impact this campaign either way. Characters receive their archetype dedication feat at level 1 - Automatic Bonus Progression+ A modified ABP that gives casters a +1 to spell attacks(Not DCs) at level 3. If not used, casters will get access to an item that will do the same at level 3.
