About the adventure
Lead a ragtag rebel force in Hellbreakers, an action-focused adventure path where your choices ignite a revolution. You’ll hunt corrupt knights, infiltrate high-society galas, rescue captured allies, negotiate with strange rural factions, and face a rising tide of undead—all while building a reputation, rallying supporters, and striking back at oppression. This is a war and revolution themed campaign, but it encompasses many modes of play beyond combat, including intrigue and infiltration. This is heroic fantasy at its most heroic, and players should create characters that are ready to take on that heroic role. This is a 1st to 10th level adventure path, and is therefore suitable for players new to Pathfinder 2nd Edition. We will be playing weekly at the same time, using the offical Foundry VTT module released by Paizo. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions, or get in touch if you are interested in scheduling a private game for your existing group.

About me
Greetings, adventurers. My name is George, and I have been immersing myself in TTRPGs since around 2001. My journey into the realm of Game Mastering took a serious turn with the release of Pathfinder. My background in theatre, history, and education has been instrumental in shaping my GM style, which emphasizes dramatic conflict, challenging decisions, and character development. I’ve had the pleasure of engaging with a diverse and international player population, both online and in person. This experience has enriched my understanding of the game and its global appeal. The games I run are primarily drawn from official Paizo publications for Pathfinder, supplemented by key resources from publishers like Kobold Press and Sly Flourish. In each campaign, I make it a point to engage with the player characters’ backgrounds. This begins with a session zero where we collaboratively create characters that align with the theme of the campaign. Each campaign I run is a unique world unto itself. I strive to create a distinctive and consistent atmosphere for each one, whether it’s the dark and grim tone of a horror campaign or the epic battles of a high fantasy adventure. Some campaigns may include unique mechanics tailored to their theme. My games, even when played remotely online, aim to emulate the feel of a traditional tabletop experience as much as possible. I prefer to keep technology from overwhelming the gameplay, allowing us to focus on the human elements of the game - the people around our virtual table. I am always available to answer questions through this site. If you have any doubts before signing up for a session, please contact me. I am always eager to hear from established parties who are looking for a new GM. Whether you have already been gaming together, or you are a group of friends, coworkers, or a family group, I would love to embark on an adventure with you. I am also open to requests from existing/ongoing groups for a specific campaign for your party. Whether you have a published module in mind or just an idea that you’d like to develop, I’m here to help you play the game you want to play! Remember, the essence of tabletop gaming is to have fun and create memorable stories together. Let’s roll the dice!

Creating your character
Play will begin at 1st level. We will discuss character creation during session zero - you do not need to show up with a character ready. We will be using the free archetype rule optional rule and the gradual ability boost optional rule, though you don't need to concern yourselves with these until 2nd level. You should consult the free players' guide for this adventure path published by Paizo before session zero.
Brand new adventure starting at 1st level.

Safety
How George creates a safe table
Digital safety tools will be available through the virtual table top during our game. During our first session together we will discuss our own limits on the content we would like to see included or excluded in the game. Having said this, the campaign comes with the warning that it foregrounds "themes of war, oppression, torture, and political violence".
