About the adventure
Haunting Conspiracies is a PF2E homebrew adventure. It's a campaign geared towards beginner to experienced players. Set in a Dark Flintlock Fantasy setting the story you will experience will have a heavy focus on Roleplaying and Decision Making. Investigations into conspiracies will lead into morally grey territories. Themes include, spy crafting, espionage, political intrigue and conspiracies. Heavily inspired by shows like Jack Ryan, Slow Horses, Andor, Ghost In the Shell, Psyco Pass etc. Set in the World of Iron, You are agents in the Kingdom of Rose, You may have been a house agent under a noble lord, an investigator for the military and maybe even a spy in the courts of royalty etc. If Nobles and Knights are petals of the Rose, Royalty are the stalk and Agents like you are the thorns. Usually these thorns are what protects the nation from hostile conspiracies and opposition. But you lot are broken thorns. In more ways than one your talents and very particular set of skills have so far been overshadowed by your flaws. For that you have been sidelined, got stuck with boring busywork or even doing the dirty work for your allies. Recently the death of someone close to you has brought you to the capital city, where your journey into a sea of murky waters begins. Expect to face a deadly conspiracy that may rise you into renown or infamy. Enemies and allies whom you will have to outplay to stay ahead in the game. You may be broken thorns but lest your foes forget you are poisoned to all hell.

About me
The name is Sam but I usually go by Gazer. I started GM-ing around 3 years ago now, first TTRPG game I played was sometime before then. Funnily enough my introduction to playing was through AD&D and it showed me what roleplaying can really do in a system so chunky like AD&D. Then came my first ever experience with GM'ing and that was through Delta Green, and I jumped into the deep end with a Fully Homebrewed Mini Campaign. After that 5E, PF2E are my usual Go-To but I've dabbled in more homebrew 5E such as StarWars5e and MassEffect 5e. I started GM-ing when I was in my junior year in college. Back then I had the dream of running a game with a bunch of my friends. But over time I've had many players and also with having consistent campaigns I've found myself really enjoying unique outlooks each player brings to the table. My love for TTRPG and GM-ing mainly comes from really having a table where people can create bonds and have moments that they can fondly look back on. To tell stories that are not only unique but relevant to each players vision of the story. TTRPG is collaborative and for me fun in GM-ing comes from seeing those moments where players are finding their own investment in the story.
