About the adventure
🌹 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗿𝗶𝗺𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗕𝗹𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀! 🌹 Riots rage in the streets. Monsters crawl from the shadows. The young queen of Korvosa fights to keep her throne—and her city—from tearing itself apart. But behind every riot and every corpse lies a deeper corruption, a rumored curse that has haunted Korvosa since its founding. And as chaos spreads, only a handful of heroes stand between the city and ruin. Curse of the Crimson Throne is one of Pathfinder’s most iconic campaigns — a gritty tale of intrigue, tragedy, and rebellion where every choice shapes the fate of a kingdom on the brink. In my Pathfinder 2e adaptation, the story’s political tension, moral complexity, and hard-won heroism come fully alive through cinematic roleplay, dynamic maps, and immersive worldbuilding. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁? ✦ A living, reactive city alive with danger, politics, and moral choice ✦ Deep, character-driven storytelling with cinematic flair ✦ Welcoming to newcomers — no PF2e experience needed ✦ A veteran GM focused on immersion, agency, and memorable moments

About me
I’m the Norse GM—also known as Jórekr or JK—a lifelong storyteller from the wild and myth-steeped lands of Scandinavia. I grew up surrounded by long winters, old forests, and the quiet magic of northern folklore, and I strive to bring that same sense of wonder and depth into every game I run. Roleplaying games have been my creative heartbeat for over a decade, offering a space to tell stories, share laughs, and explore the unknown together. I’ve run dozens of adventures and campaigns for players from all walks of life, and I’m passionate about welcoming newcomers just as much as challenging seasoned veterans. Outside the virtual table, I’m a laid-back, thoughtful presence—always happy to chat, help with character ideas, or just nerd out over game mechanics and lore. I'm usually available for games on weekday afternoons and evenings (CET/CEST). Feel free to reach out if you want to chat before joining the table—I'm always happy to talk games!

Creating your character
Before Session 0, we’ll work together in Discord to shape your character concept and ensure it works well with the party—both in combat and roleplay. You’ll begin as a Level 1 character using the 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲 rules. You can build your character in 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿 (pathbuilder2e.com) or directly in 𝗙𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗿𝘆 𝗩𝗧𝗧—whichever feels more comfortable. We’ll refine details, align goals, and make sure everyone’s ready to dive into the story as a cohesive team of legendary heroes during session 0. — 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗘𝗥 𝗢𝗣𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦 — ✦ All ancestries allowed; except Aquatic, Large or Undead ✦ Campaign-specific backgrounds available; most standard ones work too ✦ Other Uncommon or Rare options: check in with the Norse GM first — 𝗩𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗔𝗡𝗧 𝗥𝗨𝗟𝗘𝗦 — ✔️ Free Archetype ❌ Ancestry Paragon ❌ Automatic Bonus Progression ❌ Gradual Ability Boost
Level 3: - Oreq, Dwarf Fighter - Pleth, Nagaji Bard - Rocky, Dwarf Champion of Abadar - Thaladar, Elf Ranger - Your Character...
What to expect
Preparing for the session
— 𝗥𝗘𝗤𝗨𝗜𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗦 — 🔹 A free Discord account 🎤 A decent microphone, preferably headset 🌐 A Chromium-based browser — 𝗢𝗣𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗔𝗟 — 📷 Webcams are preferred, but not required! This campaign is great for players with some Pathfinder 2e experience, but curious newcomers are absolutely welcome! If you’re new to the system, just take a few minutes to glance over some of the basics — terms like Strike, Stride, and Interact will come up often during play. I’m happy to guide you through the rules as we go, so you can focus on learning, roleplaying, and having fun. Please also make sure you have a good microphone and enough time to stay engaged throughout each session—your focus and energy help bring the story to life!
