About the adventure

In this campaign, you awaken as a character with amnesia. Rolls we’ll make before starting the campaign will determine your race, class, all of your ability scores, and more, and as you move forward, you’ll uncover not only who you are, but what part you played in the chaos going on in town. Are you a hero trying to stop it, an innocent bystander, a victim…or perhaps the cause of the chaos.

About me

We find ourselves in a blue-hued room belonging to an awkward, nerdy teenage boy on a day when his life is about to be changed forever. For this happens to be the day his father will give him a very special gift. The gift itself is simply a red, rectangular box: the Dungeons and Dragons First Edition Beginner Box. Yes, this was a world of opportunity in which the boy could escape reality by being a character class like fighter, wizard, or…Elf? Yep, I’ve been a TTRP nerd for many decades now and it all started back when Elf and Dwarf were still considered classes, not races or ancestries and THACO was making me practice math way more enthusiastically than my teachers ever could. As I’ve continued forward in my gaming journey, I’ve enjoyed countless hours on both sides of the GM/DM screen, have become a Venture Agent with Pathfinder Society, and I coordinate the DND/Pathfinder Club at the school where I teach. So, what’s kept me invested in the game all this time? In simple terms, the creative freedom. I love playing creative and unique characters (for example, my gunslinger/witch with multiple personality disorder and the dice would determine which personality dominated each round). And as a GM/DM, I love creating an environment where my players can bring their interestingly unique characters and come up with creative and clever routes to take for problem solving…or problem creating as it sometimes becomes. I love creating a table where players can enjoy the sandbox world a TTRPG creates, helping players learn and expand their understanding of these amazing games, and I absolutely love when my players catch me off guard and the story goes places I’d never even thought it could go. I love creating a gaming world where NPC’s are meaningful figures, the places the characters venture are fleshed out locations a player can truly picture, and the world is something that the heroes find worth saving. A seat at my table will be a place where your ideas will be heard, your unique character and individual views will be respected, and we can all learn and grow together in this amazing game.

I've been in a game run by Sean for several months now. Sean is incredibly consistent and regular, providing GMing for the game almost every single day. If you're a fairly active and regular player looking for a PbP game where you can engage just about every day of the week, Sean is rock solid.

Sean makes fun and creative NPCs and settings. All the NPCs felt like different people. He'll also incorporate your character's backstory into the story if you give him one. I felt like I had a lot of different choices for how the story could go. He's very patient with explaining rules too.

I've played in-person Pathfinder with Suburban Dad. He is amazing! He really paid attention to my backstory and weaved it into game play seamlessly. I was brand new and he walked me thru step-by-step and was very patient with my million questions, and also when I couldn't remember the answers to those million questions and I asked again. In those games the story world that he came up with was really immersive and we had a lot of fun! He is a very talented game master! Highly recommend him!

Sean is a great DM/GM. He has great characters and models for players how to be in character. Any table with Sean will be fun one.

Sean has this ability to make anyone feel safe and welcome. He’s so supportive and just genuinely kind. I never feel pressured or nervous when I’m at his tables.

Character creation
Creating your character

Players will actually be created through random dice rolls at the beginning of the campaign. Basically, you as a player will discover things like race, class, and abilities as well as experiences and connections to the story world as the game moves along.

What to expect
Preparing for the session

We'll use Discord for the dice rolls at the beginning of the session as well as for the gameplay. I check Discord daily (generally multiple times) so the gameplay is updated throughout the week. This is a solo game, so it will move as quickly as you and I post and respond with no waiting for other players.

What Sean (Suburban Dad Gaming) brings to the table

I love GMing games that cater to the way my players want to play. I am not approaching this planning to railroad things, so always feel free to use PMs or the general chat for the game to ask for any and all clarifications and/or to simply throw out ideas to see if we can do something in a less-than-conventional approach.
