About the adventure

After a century of internal conflicts and attempts to repair relations with their neighbors to secure a better future, their old enemy the Whispering Tyrant returns from his imprisonment. During the annual Flood Truce, where orcs put aside conflict to harvest what resources they can, Ardax the White Hair speaks to the delegates of reform, mending old wounds and seeking the prosperity orcs so desperately wish to find, where disaster strikes the meeting! Players will take on the role of dignitaries who must now take up arms and join in the defense of Belkezen and hope to bring together enough of the orc holds to defend their nation from these new threats. New player friendly! Free Session 0 Free archetype optional rule Playing through Foundry VTT and Discord audio

Game style

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.

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 been a long time player with Keska as a DM and player in several campaigns with her. She is very knowledgeable and game minded. I rarely feel restricted in what I want to do. The homebrew P2E campaign I have been in with her is one of my favorites of all time

Highly knowledgable GM especially in regard to pf2e and Lancer. Having played Outlaws of Alkenstar and a number of Lancer one-shots with Keska i can attest that her understanding of game rules and mechanics is nothing short of exceptional. She is always willing to help newer players get to grips with a system and was very patient when i playing through Menace Under Otari as a newcomer to pf2e. An easy reccomend to those looking for a knowledgable and inclusive GM who knows very well when and when not to apply RAW in her games.

I've played several Pathfinder 2e games and one Lancer TTRPG game with Keska and she is an absolute delight to have as a GM. As someone moving from playing D&D 5e for the last 10 years to Pathfinder 2e and Lancer, Keska has been a wealth of knowledge and incredibly patient in helping me understand the new systems! She is well versed in the rules and is a great resource for character creation. She's an excellent storyteller and puts a lot of love, time, and research into making sure her players are well informed about the both the settings and the NPCs. She is also a fantastic role-player and does an amazing job of collaborating with her players to create a fun and exciting session! I always leave our game sessions excited for the next one! I hope you enjoy playing with her as much as I do!

How will character creation work

I will be hosting a free session 0 to help facilitate character creation. Here, I will go over the themes and big ideas and tone of the campaign as well as some background to help inform your character options. We will be building 3rd level characters, and I will guide you and answer any questions you need help with. Should you ask, I can build a character for you in advance. Pathbuilder is a free website and app available to you and what we will use to initially build our characters.
