About the adventure
Brand new level 1-20 campaign for Pathfinder 2nd Edition Remastered. This adventure provides a deeply interactive world with vibrant NPCs and interesting locations to explore. More roleplay-heavy than your typical Pathfinder adventure path. "Strength of Thousands" is an adventure that will take you to the oldest and most prestigious magical university in Golarion. There you will attend as students, and eventually become teachers yourselves. Characters are encouraged to take some type of magical archetype like "wizard dedication" or "druid dedication". The Strength of Thousands Adventure Path begins as the player characters arrive at the Magaambya, located at the heart of the cosmopolitan city Nantambu. This academy of magic will be the heroes’ home throughout their adventures. Prospective students come from all over the world to study at the Magaambya, and here you will learn to shape not only yourselves, but the entire world... We play the game RAW (rules-as-written) but you are welcome to use 3rd party character options with approval by the GM. We will be playing with the following official variant rules: • Deep backgrounds. Optional character creation tool that allows you to flesh out your character's background. • Free archetype. Take a multiclass archetype to give magical abilities to any class and play the character of your dreams. Some archetypes that make sense for this setting include halcyon speaker, loremaster, and magic warrior. Game details: • Animated spells & weather effects. • High-resolution maps and tokens. • Voice acting for NPCs. • Ambient soundscapes and music. • Standard Pathfinder 2e ruleset. • Deep and interactive environment with lots of sandbox gameplay potential. • Discord used to chat with group members in between sessions. • Newcomers are welcome to join at any point during the adventure.

About me
Stop worrying about schedule issues, and start having fun! This tabletop community is LGBTQ+ friendly and supportive. I have a BA in creative writing and worked as a professional writer for years before committing to being a full-time Game Master. Running fun games is my passion, and I love to immerse myself in the lore of the worlds we inhabit together. I offer a premium experience with animations, high-resolution maps, voice acting, and a committed GM who takes the time to integrate your character into the world. I am generally a rules-as-written GM but I love to reward creative solutions and problem solving. You can expect that I will stick to the rulebook, especially in a combat scenario. I take a hard stance against generative A.I. for in-game content. Some game listings may use generated art, but all stories and encounters are personally designed by me without the assistance of A.I. prompts.

Creating your character
You will start at level 1, no source book restrictions (homebrew allowed if you ask the GM for permission first.) Please come to the first session with a character already made, we can work out background info details later but you need a character sheet. If you have questions about character creation please ask in Discord in the days leading up to the game. I have premade characters available if you show up to the session without a character created.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Make a free Discord account, and ask the GM for a link to Discord for more prep materials such as the Foundry link. You can chat with your group in Discord about character ideas.

How David Lindsay creates a safe table
We use safety tools like the X card to ensure a fun-filled environment for all players. Session 0 will be very quick and then we will hop right into the action. All safety tools are digital and integrated into the Roll20 table.
