Shades of Blood: Thirst for the Night!

Pathfinder 2e | Campaign

About the adventure

A remote island settlement is thrown into chaos as a strange magical effect plunges the region into shadow. You travel to a nearby island and discover an ancient prison that was buried. Inside, a cult of the blood god Camazotz thrives, and in dealing with them your party learns that greater threats lay deeper inside the ancient complex. Can you discover who is behind the mystery and put a stop to the madness? Shades of Blood is a level 1-11 adventure featuring things that go bump in the night. Vampires, werewolves, and other ghostly abominations await! We will be using the Free Archtype rules as well as Gradual Ability Boost.

Game style

Rules as Written (RaW)

Games that are ran “Rules as Written” emphasize realism and stick to the letter of the rules, allowing players to explore creative solutions while still operating under a consistent rule set. Players have the ability to utilize the rules in creative ways to create awesome characters and moments in the game.

Rule of Cool (RoC)

“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.
