About the adventure
In this adventure, you step into the boots of an outlaw, someone framed for a crime they didn’t commit and pushed to the edge by the law. You’ll join forces with others who were wronged by the same powerful enemies, each of you carrying your own reasons for wanting justice… or revenge. Together, you’ll fight to clear your names and reclaim the lives that were stolen from you. This adventure will take you from the streets of Alkenstar deep into the Mana Wastes and back again. Your characters will begin at level 1 and rise all the way to level 11 by the end of the story.

Meet the Game Master
About me
Hi, I am Roman and I have been a gamemaster mostly for Dungeons and Dragons for about 20 years. I started being a game master back in Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 and eventually moving to 5th Edition. For the Last 5 years I have been Game Mastering for Pathfinder 2nd Edition. I enjoy helping my players tell dramatic stories including epic moments that you won't find anywhere else.

Creating your character
Character Creation will be handled during session 0, You are more then welcome to use Pathbuilder for building your character and importing it to Foundry. There is a Player's Guide for this Adventure that is free to download. I Encourage all the players to read it to not only learn about Alkenstar but also for the character options that are flavored for the adventure already. Before Session 0 I would like for all players to have backstories for their characters so i can try to begin finding points i can start weaving them into the story.
What to expect
Preparing for the session

What Roman Saltkill brings to the table
I will provide my players with the Official Module, for Outlaws of Alkenstar, as well as several other modules to enhance Foundry VTT and the experience for my players. I implement character voices as well as music for the sessions. I run my games Rules as Intended. I stick close to the written rules, but I focus on how they’re meant to work in play, not on technical loopholes. If a player wants to try something cool, I work with them to make it happen within the spirit of the system My players can expect to be treated with respect, kindness, and dignity above all else. They can also count on me to bring my A‑game every session and do everything I can to help them have a great time
