About the adventure
Invited to Highhelm, the Dwarven Capital, by one of the Great Houses during their festival celebrating the Founding; you have come to the city and have some time before the Festival begins. While you are settling in, things are in motion behind the scenes. The Sky King's Clan Dagger has been missing for years, lost in the tunnels below. Now, a dwarf who has been cast out of polite society claims to have a lead on the Clan Dagger's location. Are you bold enough to journey into the depths seeking treasure and glory? *Roleplay strongly encouraged. *Social encounters are typically theater of the mind. *Combat is on battle maps in Foundry. *Official Pathfinder Adventure Path

About me
Ever since I was young stories about epic quests, brave (and sometimes not-so-brave) heroes triumphing over fearsome creatures and dreadful foes have mesmerized me. Finding out about tabletop role-playing games changed the way I saw fantasy. The change from static narration to being involved in the world and story blew me away. Since that first session on my friend's back porch in the summer heat, I have played and run several systems, campaigns lasting several years of weekly games, and experienced all kinds of worlds. So far I have introduced over 2 dozen new players to Dungeons and Dragons and Shadowrun, and I would love to bring this experience to as many new players as I can. My campaigns include things like fully soundtracked adventures, all maps custom made by me, and a loose, friendly atmosphere at the table. I am available for specific game requests in addition to my posted offerings. I can run games in various fantasy settings, sci-fi, cyberpunk, and space operas. If I do not know the system you want to use, I can study it prior to game start, I am always happy to learn a new system!

What to expect
Preparing for the session
The only software needed is Discord for voice/video and a web browser. A microphone is required, and a headset is recommended to enjoy the soundtrack and sound effects of the game though! Webcams are not required, but can certainly be used if the group would like to! Definitely encourage all players to bring a fun, roleplaying mindset to each session too!

How Tantris creates a safe table
Players can expect to deal with themes relating to being underground, cave-ins, snakes, spiders, fire, claustrophobia, character death, alcohol/drug use, violence and blood, as well as some strong language. During session 0 we will meet and establish what everyone is or isn't comfortable with, and utilize a fade to black if those things come up. If something comes up during a session, players can hold up an X, N, or O on camera or message me one of those letters to notify me that something is making them uncomfortable. After each session we will have a debriefing where each player can publicly or privately bring up anything that stood out positively or discuss anything that bothered them, without fear of judgement or reprisal from anyone in the group.
