Menace Under Magnimar | Beginner Box Rewritten

Pathfinder 2e | Campaign

About the adventure

This adventure will start in medias res as you and your party step into the basement of a local fishery and tavern off the Yondabakari River in a region known as The Lost Coast to investigate a simple pest problem on behalf of the establishment's owner. Whether you’ve never rolled a die or you’re a 5e veteran curious about what lies beyond the d20, Pathfinder Second Edition invites you into a world rich with tactical depth, cinematic action, and just enough chaos to keep things interesting. This isn’t just a one-shot—it’s your first steps on a greater journey. One where learning the system isn’t a chore, but part of the adventure itself. I’ll be your guide, your narrator, and your tormentor—committed to making the rules click as naturally as the gears in a gnome’s crossbow. You’ll stumble, sure. You’ll fumble, often. But you’ll learn. And with each hard-earned lesson, you’ll feel the thrill of mastery—and I’ll savor every tear that hits the table. Let’s embrace the chaos, laugh at the missteps, and roll with it—together.

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.

How to prepare

This campaign is a shared journey—and like any great tale, you get out of it what you put in. I don’t expect perfection, but I do expect presence, curiosity, and collaboration. To get started, please: • Join the ACTION in the ;IGY6 Gaming Discord: https://discord.gg/g6fPHed9 • Be ready for Session Zero, where we build this story together Your commitment is all I ask. The rest, we’ll write as a party.

What I provide

With over a decade of experience in adult education—training both large groups and tight-knit teams—I don’t just teach rules. I facilitate learning. That means this game won’t feel like a lecture or a checklist. It’ll feel like a natural progression, like your character figuring things out in real time. Because that’s what we’re really doing here: learning by doing, failing forward, and turning “oops” into awesome. What Makes My Table Different: Adult Learning Principles: I know that grown-ups don’t learn from being told what to memorize—they learn from relevance, experience, and problem-solving. So I present encounters, choices, and mechanical challenges that make the system click through context, not textbooks. Scaffolded for Support: I meet players where they’re at. If you’re brand new, I’ll handle the crunch so you can focus on the fun. If you’re a returning player, I’ll challenge you with more agency and tactical depth. My job is to make you look cool while quietly pulling the strings in the background. Story First, Rules Close Second: I don’t teach mechanics in a vacuum. Every rule I bring in is in service to the story. The result? A table that feels cinematic and immersive, where even learning the rules becomes a narrative beat.

KISS. I conduct a structured yet down to earth session zero where group comfort levels and player expectations will be discussed.

How will character creation work

At this table, you’ve got two paths: Build a character in an intimate 1-on-1 session where we shape your hero from the ground up, tying mechanics to personality, and story to stats—or grab a pre-gen and hit the ground running, fully equipped to raise hell. Either way, you’re stepping into the story ready to bleed.
