Spore War | Forge an Alliance and Go to War Against a Demon Lord
Pathfinder 2e | Campaign
About the adventure
In the Elven Kingdom of Kyonin, you are among Queen Telandia's finest and most trusted servants, perhaps even a personal companion to her. Now she is giving you the most perilous and important quest of your lives. The land whispers of the return of Treerazer, a Demon Lord who was once thought permanently banished. He seeks to continue his foul work and if he is not defeated, he will spread his domain of blight, rot, and decay across all of Kyonin and beyond. But Kyonin may not need to face this danger alone. You have been tasked as diplomatic envoys, bringing together the neighboring kingdoms to face this great evil as one force. Can you forge a mighty alliance and lead your banners to victory against the High Lord of Rot? Spore War is the most recently completed official Pathfinder Adventure Path running from level 11 to 20. While the epic war theme means there will be plenty of epic battles to satisfy combat hungry players, the diplomatic intrigue means there is plenty of roleplaying opportunity as well. If you are a fan of the Warhammer Fantasy universe, this adventure has some of that flavor, so it might be a perfect choice if that's your style.
Game style
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.
Roleplay Heavy
“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
Current players characters are Elven Avenger Rogue Elven Animist Leshy Barbarian Orc Monk

How to prepare
Having a mic will be important, a webcam is optional. I plan to run the game on my Discord, so an account on that will be needed. Finally, please take a moment to at least skim through the free players guide. https://paizo.com/store/pathfinder/adventures/adventurepath/sporewar
What I provide
I will host the game on my Discord and Foundry Virtual Table Top. I will use VTT maps designed for Foundry. I have also downloaded and tried out various quality of life modules for Foundry that enhance the experience with things like easier targeting, and animations for spells and attacks for a more immersive experience. I love enhancing the tone of a scene with appropriate music choices. You can expect some interesting and evocative choices to always help keep you as engaged and immersed in the story as possible. I am not a professional voice actor, but I do my best to give NPC's distinctive voices and speaking styles and give players something to play off of in social encounters. I believe it's fair to say I am a skilled improviser who is able to make alterations to the game on the fly, or to better work with character backstory concepts, so feel free to be as creative as you like!
Gameplay details
This campaign is a dark war adventure with horror elements, but any lines players give me will not be crossed. While different safety tools can and will be used, the X card will be the primary way to avoid triggering content. I will never ask why an X card is used, but I may ask players to specify what specific content caused the X card to be raised. I expect all players to be respectful of each other. Apart from noted triggering content I wil not tolerate sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, ect.

How will character creation work
We will create a character at session 0! No experience is necessary, but feel free to come with a character already in mind! For player's familiar with PF2e, I plan to use the free Archtype rule. Pathbuilder is a great tool for building your character (and can be imported into Foundry, the VTT we will use) https://pathbuilder2e.com/app.html
