About the adventure

On the Isle of Kortos resides a small seaside town of Otari which is known for its fresh fish and skilled sailors, but above all, it’s a big logging town, providing valuable wood to the nearby metropolis of Absalom. Word has begun to spread around Otari that there’s a problem down at the Otari Fishery. Some are saying that some sort of beast is lurking in the basement, feeding on the stores of salted fish. Folks are worried that whatever is eating the fish might get hungry enough to eat the fishers next! You’ve received a letter from Tamily Tanderveil, the owner of the Fishery. Inside is a desperate plea for help. With the town guard busy protecting the loggers, she needs a few brave souls to venture down into the basement of her warehouse and put an end to the beast that’s feasting on her fish. If Otari’s problems weren’t big enough, residents living outside of nearby towns and bigger cities of the Isle of Kortos have begun disappearing without a trace over the last few weeks. Finally a few days ago an eerie blue light began to emit from the old Gauntlight Ruins where a 115 foot tall lighthouse still stands after going dim over 500 years ago. This will be a full campaign ranging from level 1 to 9+. The campaign will start with the Beginner’s Box to help all players get acquainted with the Pathfinder 2e rules. From there the campaign will effortlessly transition to allow players to explore the nearby areas nearby areas and settlements requiring the players to solve a mysterious threat that looms over the Isle of Kortos. I've also included a few levels of Abomination Vaults to allow for some sporadic dungeon crawling. We will have a free Session 0 to chat and build characters. I'm welcoming all players of any experience level. If you are looking to learn Pathfinder 2e then this is the game for you!

About me

Hey all! My name is Dylan and I've never had much of a chance to be a player in TTRPG but have a fair amount of experience as a DM. I've been DMing TTRPG games since 2016 and have built my skill set over the last several years. Since the beginning I've enjoyed mixing technology with my games. I have experience with in person games where I use a table with a tv set in it for seamless combat in my sessions. I used Roll20 for many years but have recently made the transition to Foundry for all my games and note taking. I have experience in DnD 5e, Pathfinder 2E, and most recently been exploring Cyberpunk Red. I think more than anything I really enjoy bringing new comers into TTRPG games due to its ability to bring people together! If you ever have any questions feel free to reach out to me.

Character creation

Creating your character

We will be having a free Session 0 to build characters and discuss any character ideas. For this game we will be starting at level 1. I'll have a Player's Guide to help with brainstorming ideas and backgrounds. Any official Pathfinder 2e content from Paizo is allowed.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Since I'm using Foundry VTT for this campaign you will need access to a browser to access the website. I'll also be using discord for us to communicate so everyone will need a mic. If you are brand new to Pathfinder feel free to do some research on the Pathfinder 2e system but its not necessary. I will also have some documents and introductory material on our discord channel for anyone looking to learn ahead of time.

What Dylan brings to the table

I'll be using Foundry VTT to build our characters and use during our sessions. If you haven't used it is no worries and I'll walk you through character creation and creating your own custom token. During Session 0 we will discuss music and if everyone is interested in having ambient music I'll implement it into the game.

Safety

How Dylan creates a safe table

I will be holding a free Session 0 to discuss any subject matter we would like to avoid and any other hard lines anyone may have. We will be using X, N, & O's digitally through Foundry during the game. There will be an Open Door policy for anyone needing to step away and about halfway through each session I'll have a 15 minute break.
