Pathfinder 2e | One-Shot

About the adventure

This is an introductory campaign, perfect for people looking to try out Pathfinder 2e. Menace Under Otari itself is a short adventure lasting around 2 sessions. It's designed to introduce and teach all of PF2e's gameplay mechanics and introduce a little bit of its lore too.

Game style

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.

Josh is a fantastic DM! He integrates player character and backstory into the game extremely well, and brought my character backstory to life beautifully. He creates space for great RP and fun interaction between players. He also has a great sense of humour (and character voices to go with it!). His games move well between goofy hijinks, satisfying combat and compelling drama. He's also really kind, helpful and accommodating, as well as super knowledgeable about Pathfinder and Foundry.

I was completely new to Pathfinder 2e before starting a game with Josh and he helped a ton with teaching me the game without overwhelming me. In addition, his voicing of NPCs and monsters has been top notch.

Josh’s games are always engaging and well prepared. He has fun with his NPCs and makes you want to get into your roleplay.
