About the adventure
In the cosmopolitan trading city of Kibwe, at the edge of the Mwangi Expanse, innocent people struck by a terrible curse known as the slithering are melting into malevolent oozes. The heroes are at the epicenter of this slimy curse and might be the only ones capable of recovering the ancient magic needed to break it. Tracking the course of the curse through Kibwe’s bustling markets and shrines, they must untangle its origin and discover the role the nefarious Aspis Consortium plays in the unfolding conspiracy. The mysteries the heroes uncover might usher in a new era of plenty and prosperity for Kibwe—if they can survive the curse to experience it!

About me
20 years playing ttrpgs, 18 GMing; 5 glyph PFS GM, former Paizo Org Play Venture-Officer Former scientist bringing nature to the tabletop at www.druidgmdesigns.com I've only run home campaigns for friends until now. Decided to try out hosting them on here since my disability limits the type of job and workload I can sustain. I prefer to run games that are a mix of roleplaying and rollplaying.

Creating your character
NO HUMAN PCs. This includes half-elves (aiuvarin), half-orcs (dromaar), and applying other versatile heritages on top of human as the ancestry. Level 5, all Paizo-published character options available. Options from Lost Omens: The Mwangi Expanse are particularly thematic, but not required. Come to the free Session 0 with ideas; we'll hash them during it.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
We'll be using Foundry. I recommend downloading Foundry Light Client and saving this campaign's server in there. Voice chat and any between-session text-coordinating will be on my Discord server.
What DeadGators brings to the table
I do some voices and accents, and provide ambient and battle music. I mostly do Rules as Written, but will bend them if it makes sense for a situation (most often nature-related since I have professional knowledge with that), and occasionally allow Rule of Cool.

How DeadGators creates a safe table
We'll discuss needs, considerations, and accommodations during the free Session 0. You can privately message or openly tell me if something's messing with you in the middle of a session and we'll figure out how to adjust from there.
