Rise of the Demon Lords | Isekai Overpowered Dual Class+
Killed by a rogue Truck Kun and given a second chance. Can you rise as a Demon Lord?
About the adventure
Sure, you've seen the anime, you've read the light novels, enjoyed the manga, but you never thought it would happen to you. Death by Truck-Kun, followed by Isekai. Well, not immediately followed. No, first you had to spend a couple of eternities being tortured by the lines, forms, and eternal boredom of the Cosmic DMV while they "sorted out" your "death paperwork". It turned out you weren't even supposed to die that way, so there was no afterlife for you. You were given a choice: Be sent to another world and try to rise to be one of the new Demon Lords, or stay and work forever at the Cosmic DMV. Easiest choice you ever made.

About me
40+ year Gamemaster with experience in many systems. I offer character-driven storylines, role-play, exploration, and tactical combat, along with lots of room for humor. If there's a system you want to learn, I'm patient, knowledgeable, and great at teaching you while still giving you control over your own decisions. Teaching people a new system is a great privilege I accept with humility and gratitude. I do my homework and help you understand things in a friendly and approachable manner. Experienced players find challenge and opportunities to be creative and fully immerse in the games I run without worry about me messing with rules without feedback or foreknowledge.

DMReckless does an exceptional job of building challenging encounters. His style encourages you to think tactically and play to the strengths of the party. This builds effective tension and their are consequences to decisions/poor roles and you feel like have earned it when you are successful. He sets a good pace and is effective at keeping the action front and center while providing the opportunity to role play and character build. He is prepared and knows the rules thoroughly- Highly recommend!
GM Reckless is very patient explaining the rules and helping everyone with the Foundry/Forge systems. We're currently playing in a adventure path he converted from PF1 to PF2e Remastered. So far, combat has been fine tuned / balanced where it's often been a close call, but the party pulls through at the last second. Some sessions are very role play heavy and others are very combat heavy due to the structure of the AP. I'm looking forward to seeing how things continue.
I am a new player who didn't fully know their character. In a tense moment, I forgot one of my abilities that was able to turn the situation around completely. Sadly, I found that out a moment too late, on another character's turn. Still, because of how new I was and the situation, I was allowed to have retroactively used my ability and we avoided a likely tpk.
Reckless is a versatile storyteller who can manage—with tact and aplomb—the curveballs that we send him. He is very transparent about the game and speaks frankly about his (and his players') expectations. Reckless strives hard to ensure nobody is left out; even when the party is split many different ways, he manages split scenes with a deft hand and keeps the game moving forward. Regardless of who you are or what your experience level is, Reckless will make sure you have a good time.
Reckless is a phenomenal Game Master. He has been super helpful with teaching me a new system, explains rules, and helping me incorporate concepts and ideas into the existing rules etc. He puts a lot of effort into running his games and is a true professional, building maps, graphics, lighting effects, and music into his sessions and ensuring all players have opportunities to shine.
