About the adventure
The fate of two goddesses hangs in the balance as disgraced graveknight Seldeg Bhedlis prepares a ritual to rewrite history itself. Brave heroes and wicked villains alike assemble either to hinder or assist Seldeg in his wicked plans. Welcome Folks! Claws of the Tyrant is a trio of anthology adventures. Gravelands Survivors (Level 1-2), Ashes for Ozem (Level 7-8) and Of Blood & Faith (Level 18-20). Campaign Duration I'm predicting that this anthology will take around 10 sessions to complete. Players must be able to commit to the game on a weekly basis for the duration of the campaign. Where on Golarion? Claws of the Tyrant takes place within the Gravelands.

About me
Just an enjoyer of pretty much anything fantasy related. Avid fan of anime, survival horror games and TTRPGs of all flavors. I got my start with TTRPGs back in high school and have been hooked ever since. My GMing style puts equal focus on both combat and roleplay. I put a strong focus on making my games a safe space where folks of all backgrounds can roleplay and enjoy themselves. (Banner done by sarahwidiart: https://vgen.co/sarahwidiart)
