About the adventure
Delve into ancient secrets below the City at the Center of the World in this hardcover campaign-arc adventure for characters level 1-6! Captured by cultists somewhere in the maze of tunnels below the city of Absalom, the heroes battle their way into the long-lost Sanctum of Aroden, a legendary religious refuge sealed away from the world with the god of humanity’s death a century ago. Can the heroes pass the fabled Test of Aroden, or will they become just the latest to vanish forever into these long-lost dungeons? Based on Pathfinder Publisher Erik Mona's multi-year, multi-group office Pathfinder campaign, The Dead God's Hand is a deadly adventure filled with dungeon exploration, ancient mysteries, and phantasmagoric tests that see the player characters reliving events from the life of Aroden, the dead god of humanity whose death triggered the beginning of the current age! We'll be using the Remaster Rules. We'll be playing on Discord. Maps will be provided through Google Slides. The expectation is that you'll post at least once a day. I will post several times a day depending on what's happening.

About me
Hi there! My name is Joe and I live on the east coast near New York City in the US. Mainly experienced in D&D 5e, Pathfinder 2e, Starfinder 2e, and Legend of the Five Rings 4e, I've been DMing since 1991 and I have thousands of hours of experience, mostly D&D. My favorite thing about playing RPGs is role-playing, problem solving, combat, and planning. I often throw humor into my roleplaying and horror into my GMing. I love fantasy and science fiction books, movies, and TV. I play tons of video games, mainly RPGs, action adventure, and strategy games. I've been married since 2013 and I have two young children. Drop me a line and say hello. Good gaming!
