About the adventure
As the Hellfire Crisis dawns and spreads its turmoil throughout Avistan, the nation of Isger is being shaken up by the rebel organization the Hellbreakers League, which seeks to break Isger free of its oppressor and patron nation of infernal Cheliax. Player characters will carry out daring missions against Chelaxian strongholds, face off with the deadly Hellknights, and strike out against the forces of Hell itself! On the way, they’ll run into dangerous enemies both new and old and uncover long-lost secrets powerful and ancient. Can the PCs stoke the fires of revolution and throw off the diabolic chains of Cheliax or will they be ground beneath the boot of oppression? Join the Hellbreakers and do your part! We shall begin this excursion into hero-dom at level 1 in the town of Breachill as you join the fledgling Hellbreaker League fighting for liberty in Isger. I have developed an exciting prelude, placing you in the action of the Battle of Hellknight Hill. From there we shake a nation! I make heavy use of story-telling, excellent roleplaying, music, and Foundry tools to create an immersive experience that is beyond what you will typically find in other paid games. Character voices, well-run combat, exciting skill challenges, and in-depth roleplaying are key in my groups. I do use AI artwork to add immersion and visualization of fantasy locations. The premiun Foundry adventure path module is the base for this experience- I add a lot of creativity and excellence to elevate your gaming experience. You will not be disappointed!

About me
In the 6th grade, Matt Metcalf invited me and a few other buddies over to his house one Saturday afternoon. He pulled out a red rectangular box with a picture of a red dragon and the words "Dungeons & Dragons" emblazoned on the top. I was hooked. My name is Herb. Fantasy literature and gaming has been one of my passions throughout my entire life. I have GMed online since 2010, and have run games professionally since 2020. In 2022 I made the jump from D&D to Pathfinder, and I am very much enjoying the step up in tactical play and the high quality adventure content that Paizo publishes. If you like a well-run game with quality content and roleplaying, you will be satisfied. I bring the level of leadership and creativity it takes to create a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Most of my players play for a long time in my campaigns and in multiple adventures. I value quality over quantity! If you're looking for a top-rate GM, I am the one you should choose!

Creating your character
Characters will begin at level 1. Character creation discussion will begin before the session in Discord via chat. Creation before Session 0 is encouraged, but we can quickly make characters in Session 0 if necessary. I do my utmost to interact with players beforehand and assist in the process. It is recommended that you find artwork for your character beforehand. I will make tokens for the group.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need access to the following: - Discord and a working microphone. Headphones or earbuds are preferred to reduce feedback. - Reliable internet connection. - A good attitude and readiness to have a blast!
What Herbie brings to the table
I bring the Foundry license, the Paizo adventure path, the artwork and music, the voices, and lots of preparation! It is my job to create an immersive, relaxed, and fun experience for your enjoyment and engagement.

Safety
How Herbie creates a safe table
Session 0 is key to a positive group experience. I highly value communication and listening to players' desires for the campaign. Roleplaying will be via voice chat in Discord. I strive to make NPCs immersive and use voices; players are encouraged to roleplay to the level that they feel comfortable. Establishing a safe and comfortable group environment allows for roleplaying and character development to happen. Disruptive players will be asked to adjust their behavior, and then they will be asked to leave if no change is made. Lines and Veils will be discussed via Discord during Session 0. Weekly debrief give opportunity for player feedback.
