About the adventure
In the sleepy coastal town of Sandpoint evil is brewing. An attack by crazed goblins reveals the shadows of a forgotten past returning to threaten the town, and perhaps all of Varisia. The Rise of the Runelords Adventure Path begins with this goblin raid and takes players on an epic journey through the land of Varisia, as they track a cult of serial killers, fight backwoods ogres, stop an advancing army of stone giants, delve into ancient dungeons, and finally face off against a wizard-king in his ancient mountaintop city. Converted to 2e but staying true to the original, this campaign will take player characters from level 1 beginner adventurers to level 20 world saving legends!

About me
Hello there! I'm Pablo and I've been playing RPGs since I was a kid, and running games for more than 20 years. I have experience with D&D (3.5e & 5e), Pathfinder (1e & 2e), World of Darkness, Mutants and Masterminds, Star Wars FFG and more. I specialize in customizing pre-written adventures turning them into unique and memorable experiences. I bring the story for you make it yours! What my Players say about me: "...extremely collaborative to the point that I believe he spends more out of game hours each working with the players than game hours GMing a session (and he definitely isn't shorting our sessions)..." "...amazing with everything, one shots, full campaigns, including all the wacky and serious ideas we have..." "Couldn't ask for a better guy to run my game." "Friendly, polite, and very helpful." "...one of the best Gamemasters I have gotten to play with, ensuring everyone is having fun..." I run games both in English and Spanish.
