About the adventure
As low-ranking members of the Hellbreakers League, your recent victories in battle has given your organization an opportunity to weaken the diabolic grip of Cheliax. Rally the people of Isger against their oppressors while tackling threats that would attempt to crush your resistance or take advantage of the downtrodden. Hellbreakers is a level 1 to 11 adventure with a range of gameplay themes, including social, wilderness, and combat encounters. Player characters are members of the Hellbreaker League, a group dedicated to freeing Cheliax's vassal states and toppling it's regime. The heroes can expect to face Chelaxian aligned forces including their allied devils, as well as undead that plague the countryside of Isger.

About me
Hi! I'm Cloud Draxie, GM, artist, and overall tabletop and board game enthusiast. As a GM and as player, I value the fun of everyone at the table and support the cooperative nature of TTRPGs. I require my entire table to be LGBTQ+ friendly. I also require that the party be a team in and out of character, meaning there is normally no PvP or stealing from other PCs in my games. My main games are Pathfinder 2nd edition and Upwind, but I like to learn and try out new games too. I enjoy telling stories with my players and challenging them with tough but winnable encounters. I learned game master largely in online settings, so I am quite comfortable running sessions over voice chat and on virtual tabletops, namely Discord and Foundry VTT. Because I always like to have a unique representation of my own characters and understand that some of my players feel the same, I can offer to draw personal little portraits to be used as player tokens in my games that last more than a few sessions.

Creating your character
Normal character creation rules will be used, but variant rules will be discussed at session 0. We will likely be using Free Archetype with a limited pool of archetypes to select from. While I suggest players be flexible until the group discusses party roles, I also highly recommend checking the player's guide for Hellbreakers to help create a thematically appropriate character.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players will need to be able to join the discord server and voice chat. They will also need to be able to join the Forge hosted Foundry server.
What Cloud Draxie brings to the table
I will be providing the virtual space to play including maps, music, and modules for smooth gameplay. If any players need character tokens, I have a decent library that can be selected from, or I can provide a simple sketch or recommend options on request. As for GM style, I adapt to the preferred playstyle of the group, but prefer to keep a balance of roleplay, exploration, and encounters. I generally play with the rules as written, making exceptions when the rules threaten enjoyment of the game.
Homebrew rules
I don't make major changes to the rules, but there are a few home rules I have picked up: Treating background lores as if the PC had the Additional Lore feat, banning Ancient Elf if Free Archetype is in play, and allowing free retraining of recently picked feats or spells for one session after a level up.

How Cloud Draxie creates a safe table
Tools will be discussed during session 0, and a lines and veils document will be sent before then. A button in game can be pressed to display an X card to everyone in game, and I will also monitor chat and keep an eye out for private messages from players. I am available usually before and after sessions for a time and my messages are always open to discuss the game or any concerns.
