About the adventure

When the mysterious Gauntlight, an eerie landlocked lighthouse, glows with baleful light, the people of Otari know something terrible is beginning. The town's newest heroes must venture into the ruins around the lighthouse – and delve the dungeon levels far beneath it – to discover the evil the Gauntlight heralds. Hideous monsters, deadly traps, and mysterious ghosts all await the heroes who dare to enter the sprawling megadungeon called the Abomination Vaults! A level 1-11 weekly campaign in the high fantasy environment of Pathfinder's Golarion!

About me

Greetings Adventurers! I've been GMing and playing Pathfinder and DnD sessions for about 10 years now, 6 of which almost exclusively as a Game Master. I've been playing since Pathfinder 1e and the start of Pathfinder 2e. I have played Pathfinder 2e since beta and is my game system of choice, with complete knowledge of the system in and out. I am passionate about my role as a GM, and is why I try to provide the best experience possible! This involves a wonderful Discord community, music, a modified Foundry VTT-based experience, easy sheet keeping/character generation, along with thorough and purposeful storytelling that acts and reacts with characters and their actions. The player and group story always comes first, and I am looking forward to bringing that experience to you!

Character creation

Creating your character

There are two steps to this process, one that happens during our session zero and beyond, and the player prep before session zero. Before session zero, you should read the player's guide to your relevant adventure, presented as a free download on paizo.com and also pinned in the campaign info chat in the discord server if you'd like, or correspond with me for help with character concepts and implementation. Then please build a character on pathbuilder2e.com and submit the completed character link to the me (Share Copy of Character). During the zero and onwards, I will walk everyone through on how to prepare your blank character sheet to match your completed sheet from pathbuilder2e.com via in-game tools with Foundry.

The current party

Party is level 4 with the following: Goblin Gunslinger Dwarf Champion Elf Psychic

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Make sure you have a microphone (webcam is optional), and have corresponded with me before hand to get access to the discord server for voice communication. Reading the relevant player guide before hand helps for pre-session zero prep if needed.

Safety

How GM Matt Dye creates a safe table

- Session zero: Discussing campaign guidelines, my GMing style, finalizing characters and stories relative to the game world, group introduction & cohesion, along with possibly getting into the story a bit! I am very active on both Start Playing and my discord server, so feel free to ask questions, chat with me, and hang out with your fellow group members! I have a varied GM game-play approach, focusing on all pillars of TTRPG's and making sure that it feels like we are getting something done every session! :)
