About the adventure
Ancient prophecies are coming to pass in a dying world. You're death is certain, but you have a chance to ensure the salvation of your soul. Mörk Borg is a rules light OSR style game that takes place in an grim dark apocalyptic world full of undead, goblins, and horrific monsters. This adventure will be an old-school dungeon crawl that is never the same twice. Expect to find treasure, disturbing characters, monsters that will most certainly kill you, and unique challenges that could prove impossible to overcome.

About me
I've been playing TTRPGs for 18 years and mainly DMing them for 8 years. I prefer running the game to playing. I started with D&D 3.5 and now run Pathfinder 2E. I've also run F.A.T.E, MÖRK BORG, Deadlands, and Dungeon Crawl Classics. I've played Call of Cthulhu, Vampire the Masquerade, Dungeons and Dragons 4th and 5th editions, and a handful of other systems. I have almost all of the PF2 books and I do my best to be as familiar with the rules as possible, but there's a lot so there are moments I have to look things up. I love introducing new players to the game! For longer running campaigns I expect players to be familiar with their character sheets and the related rules so they don't cause slowdowns during play. I run my main group in person with set pieces and minis, but I also run a weekly game online using Foundry. I also ran games remotely a ton during the pandemic (who didn't). I like 3D printing and painting models, but I also love taking time to set up Foundry to provide a great experience for players. I love gritty dark fantasy and one of my favorite settings is Dark Sun, which I ran a D&D 3.5 version of for over 2 years. No matter what setting I am running little bits of Dark Sun will slip in. I am also in love with Pathfinder's Golarion and spend many hours pouring over the Lost Omens books. If something is remotely related to the game I am running I will read every scrap I can get my hands on.

Creating your character
Characters are always randomly generated. You can use the official character generator to roll up a character for the game (https://scvmbirther.makedatanotlore.dev) or we can roll one up at the start of the session. Your first character will probably die, so be prepared to roll up another character at some point.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
You will need to join my Discord server, the earlier the better, so you can receive details on the game before we start: https://discord.gg/cz6BY9A7D While it is a very rules light system you should take a look at official site where you can find a light version of the rules, along with a reference sheet: https://morkborg.com/preview/ This video will show you how to play in 7 minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BEBGiffrfE
What Josh Vlk brings to the table
This game will lightly use Foundry for a map, character sheets, creepy metal music, and dice rolls, but the majority of the game will be "theater of the mind" style over discord.
Homebrew rules
This game will use all of the optional rules from the core book. - Classes - Omens - Terrible traits - Troubling tales - Arcane catastrophes

Safety
How Josh Vlk creates a safe table
Mörk Borg is a very intense game filled with all sorts of horrific content, but if something is happening that will truly make you uncomfortable you can let me know either in the general voice chat on Discord, or through a DM on Foundry if you want to remain anonymous. No questions will be asked and I will adjust or skip over the scene.
