A Fistful of Flowers | A Whimsical Leshy Heist (PF2e)

Let's begin where all great stories end: with you. Your feet are planted in the mud, the tang of sweat and steel in the air. Across the battlefield, your nemesis locks eyes with you. This is it. This is the moment your entire journey has led to. Every choice, every friendship forged in fire, every whispered secret in a smoky tavern. You feel the sun on your skin, the weight of your weapon in your hand, and you are ready. This is the thrill, the wonder, the legend we will build together. But every legend has a beginning, and that beginning is built on the trust between a player and their storyteller. Who is Your Storyteller? My name is Étienne, and for me, stories are not just a hobby, they are my craft and my life's work. As a published author, I have learned how to build worlds from words. As the founder and managing director who ran a publishing house for ten years, I have guided countless authors on their journey from a simple idea to a finished saga. And as a private tutor for creative writing, I have had the great joy of helping others ignite the fire of their own imagination. These experiences have fundamentally shaped my approach as a Game Master. I don't see a campaign as a series of encounters, but as a novel we are writing together. I understand the art of building suspense, the importance of an unforgettable antagonist, and the power of a perfectly placed emotional moment. My Philosophy at the Table: I firmly believe that the magic of TTRPGs lies in the shared, unforgettable moments. My goal is to create the framework for exactly those moments to happen. • Your Story is the Main Plot: To me, a character's backstory is not just a document you fill out at the beginning. It is the most important cornerstone of our campaign. I love to weave personal plotlines, NPCs, and dilemmas from your past directly into the main story until the two are inseparable. • A Safe Harbor for Creativity: The greatest adventures can only be experienced when everyone at the table feels completely safe, respected, and heard. Open, honest communication and an unwavering commitment to inclusivity and safety are the pillars of my table. Your Path to Becoming a Hero: A Unique Onboarding The leap into a new world can be intimidating, especially for new players. That's why I offer every player a personal 1-on-1 conversation before we begin. In this private session, I take the time for you: 1. Character Deep Dive: This is the most important part. We will talk about your ideas and vision for your hero. I will help you create a character who is alive not just on paper, but in your head and heart. 2. The Author's Template: To support this process, I will provide you with my personally developed character biography template. It is a professional tool that I also use as an author to develop well-rounded, multi-dimensional characters. It helps you go beyond the stats to discover your hero's motivations, fears, and dreams. Whether you're a veteran who has traveled a hundred worlds or this is the very first time you've felt the call to adventure. You have a place at my table. That final, epic moment on the battlefield? It all begins here. Are you ready to turn the first page? Your legend awaits.
