About the adventure

Your face is plastered across wanted posters, the Shieldmarshals hunting you through every smog‑choked street of Alkenstar. You’ve landed on the wrong side of two of the most powerful figures in the city, and staying one step ahead of them is the only thing keeping you out of a shallow alley grave. Outlaws don’t go down quietly—and neither will you. Then one day, a letter arrives. A job offer too good to be real: fast money, high danger, and a chance to strike back at the very people who signed your death warrant. Riches and revenge, wrapped in the same envelope. All that’s left is deciding whether you’re bold—or desperate—enough to take it. How far will you go to reclaim your life and bring justice to those who wronged you. This is Gunsmoke and Gears: An Alkenstar Story What you will find in this Adventure šŸ“š An enhanced story, that improves upon the original adventure 🧨 An explosive high octane, western adventure set in Alkenstar šŸ›  Premium Foundry Module, published by Paizo šŸ•¹Beginner Friendly, New to Pathfinder of TTRPG's no problem šŸ’»High Resolution Battlemaps , tokens, and animations Outlaws of Alkenstar is a steampunk western Adventure Path for the second edition of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game.

Safety

How Roman Saltkill creates a safe table

Below are listed a number of content warnings that one could expect to encounter in this game. During Session 0 we will go over players comfort levels with the following content warnings, and from there we can adjust the game for several of these. There are certain themes, that if changed would completely change and break the game, such as Firearms. Alkenstar is known for inventors, alchemists, and gunslingers. very few encounters will not have guns, explosions or both. Outside of Alkenstar is the Mana Waste where elements of body horror reside, as the wasteland changes those who stay for too long. Table Top Roleplaying Games are meant for everyone, and I want everyone to feel comfortable and safe. Hate speech, racism, bigotry, are not permitted and will be met with an immediate removal from session and any future games.
