About me
I've been dungeon mastering/game mastering since I was 10 years old. 20 years later I still love everything about it. Growing up, I DM-ed for my little brothers and friends and as an adult have DM-ed many pick-up groups online before working on this website and have had 3 years of successful professional GM-ing. Let me give you a challenge in the lore-rich Golarion (pathfinder) campaign setting. Adventure through AP's or oneshots that have been expertly sculpted around your characters to give you the most entertaining experience I can provide.

Creating your character
We will start at level 1 using the free archetype and gradual ability boost optional rules. If you are jumping in to the game in progress than we will discuss how to get your character added at the same level and wealth as the rest of the party.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Please come with a mic. We will be playing using discord for voice and Foundry VTT for the game. You can make your character on your own or we can work on your character before the first game. This game is run using the pathfinder 2e game system. It is a rules heavy system so if you are new expect a learning curve. I've taught dozens of people how to play and will do my best to make your experience great regardless of experience level as long as you are ready to learn. Players of all experience levels are welcome.
What Nick brings to the table
The game will be on Foundry VTT and features a library complete with dozens of NPC's to interact with, dynamic lighting in dungeons, and handouts of important information and pictures.
Homebrew rules
Hero points on enemy saves: in the interest of helping spellcasters feel more impactful, I allow the players to force enemies to reroll saves against their spells and abilities with hero points.
