About the adventure
"The empty mansion moans, On High Street every midnight, It whispers and it groans, And eats up all the moonlight. The windows are all dark, The locks, they have all broken, So letās go have a lark, And throw the front door open! Are you brave? Are you bold? Say goodbye, and face your fate, When you cross the threshold Of the Haruvex Estate!" An evil ghost sorceress has been defeated in the region, but questions are left unanswered as to what dark secrets defined her legacy. YOU and your companions venture to the city of Absalom to investigate her estate, and what you discover beneath the long-abandoned manor threatens not only the bustling metropolis, but the entire region. Can you rise to the challenge? š This campaign will run level 11 through 20, and allows a wide variety of thematic material for character creation. You do NOT need to have played or completed Abomination Vaults to play, but it will provide a lot of context and callbacks for those who have. ---- āļø Using my extensive experience as a GM and as a Foundry VTT host, you will get to take chances, make mistakes, and push open the sides of what's possible to forge a story of your own making. This will be a highly responsive campaign where you get to paint the canvas in your own color. š§µ This game will be using premium content from Foundry VTT. In addition, I am the proud creator and patron of custom battlemaps which may be included in the game when appropriate. š¦ Life is hard; Playing roleplaying games shouldn't be. Your time is precious, and will be respected - I pride myself on giving everyone the attention and spotlight they deserve, and giving you an experience that leaves you hyped for the next game, and great times to share with your friends. š² Now it's YOUR turn to roll.

About me
I've been hosting games for friends and professionally for years now, and love to bring the spirit of adventure to the table. I've been enjoying Pathfinder and Starfinder a lot lately, and I love seeing the party work together to overcome challenges. Expect a game that will challenge your ability to work as a team tactically, mixed in with plenty of memorable characters and emotional moments. I love: ā Teaching the game to new players ā Crafting interesting encounters that challenge the players in different ways. ā Introducing memorable characters - even minor actors like the merchants and messengers! ā Seeing the players change the story through their interesting character choices and narrative decisions. No two games are alike. ā Giving the players options and loot they've never seen before - something special, just for them.

Creating your character
Session 0 we'll get together and go over the player's guide, and come to a group consensus about how to form the adventuring party. We can do character creation together, letting the more experienced members of the group help the newer ones. It's not a particularly long process, and I'm open to people changing some aspects of their character early on in the campaign.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Bring a friendly attitude and a spirit of adventure! I only request that you must have a working mic, and if you wish to have voice activation on, that you don't have excessive background noise or are willing to switch to push-to-talk if it becomes an issue. Players will create their characters together during session 0 to create a strong group dynamic and immersive character goals/plots. You CAN create your character ahead of time, but only if you have built it on the game server beforehand (not just a Pathbuilder export). A Discord account is required. Besides that, no software is needed! I love creating stories that I can share with my own friends, and I know you will too - this adventure path is sure to bring lots of memorable moments of levity, close calls, nail biting victories and heartwrenching defeats.
What Ambitosis brings to the table
Besides everything you'd expect from a virtual TTRPG module professionally prepared, you'll have access to a living adventure journal that details how you and your teammates have done in the campaign so far. Very useful for sharing stories with friends, looking up notes for things the group may have forgotten, or even just for having a good laugh about the good times and the bad.

How Ambitosis creates a safe table
If you've joined for session 0, it is OFTEN part of session 1. We'll spend roughly the first half of the session solidifying campaign themes, make sure everyone's character fits, and we will all have a chance to lay all our expectations out on the table and verify everyone's up for what's involved in the adventure. But it really depends on if the players want to do character creation ahead of time or not. I have no problem changing the content of the adventure path to better suit people's comfort levels, and this is what the lines and veils will be used for.
