About the adventure
Rappan Athuk, the legendary mega-dungeon by Frog God Games and Necromancer Games is nothing more and nothing less than a good, old–fashioned, First Edition dungeon crawl updated for PF2e by myself. Very difficult, Rappan Athuk will truly strike fear into the hearts of the most stalwart adventurers. It offers legions of inventive traps, tricks, strange features, and monsters -- some of them never before seen. It affords numerous opportunities for roleplaying, but anyone willing to brave these subterranean halls better arrive ready to rumble, or their lives will be short indeed. Many, many players have lost favored PCs delving into the depths of this dungeon, all the while giggling like children and having the time of their lives. Hundreds, if not thousands of players have combed the halls of Rappan Athuk over the years, seeking treasure and fame, making it one of the best-known dungeon locations the game has ever produced. Even players who have never entered its halls know the term: “Don’t go down the Well!” And, as an added bonus, we're even throwing in dungeons from the Thornkeep PF1e module as well! Happy hunting! Salutations, I'm Phil aka JCServant, a DM with experience going back to AD&D. Join me and a group of brave adventurers for a true old-school dungeon-crawling experience using the latest Pathfinder system! We have a vibrant, involved Discord community. When you join one of my campaigns, you join a group of players passionate about role-playing and Pathfinder 2nd edition!
Additional Details
How to prepare
We will connect using Foundry VTT, and can check the demo available on their website to ensure compatibility. All dice rolling and character sheets will be provided via the software. For voice chat, we will use Discord. Please ensure you have a quality microphone, and will be in an environment free of background noise for the enjoyment of all. It is recommended that all players read over my gameplay guidelines at https://tinyurl.com/5x7nu93m , and have a basic knowledge of Pathfinder 2e rules.
What I provide
I will provide the Foundry VTT software with all the needed setup. From journals to music to tokens and character sheets, we'll keep track of it all there. Once the game is ready to go, I will provide a URL and password that players will use to connect.
Gameplay details
Salutations. I appreciate your interest! Salutations! I'm Phil aka JCServant, specializing in converting PF1e adventure paths for PF2e. This offers players a rare chance to experience these thrilling and imaginative escapades by Paizo and other third parties with the newer PF2e system. When you join one of my games, you not only jump into an epic campaign run by a very experienced DM, but you also join a vibrant Discord community that shares a passion for the hobby! Welcome to this exciting conversion of Rappan Athuk! This campaign will be an old-school dungeon-crawling experience. Death lurks around every corner, and adventurers are going to have to be on their toes every step of the way! Optional rules push players to see how far they can get without hero points or frequent resting as well, balancing extra risk with reward! Death can often be permanent, encouraging players to always have a backup character or two on hand should the need arise! In terms of gameplay, the main focus in Rappan Athuk is focused on exploration and combat. A very large percentage of encounters are solved in combat testing character's build, party composition, and teamwork! With that said, there is also some skill usage, and problem-solving needed to get past some of the tougher traps and challenges. We have a 20-minute break towards the middle of the game (based on the group). I'm very open to feedback from players, using it to help make future adventures better. I am happy to answer questions and ensure the game is a good fit for all who want to play. I'm generally available via Discord - username: JCServant and Startplaying messaging system to answer questions. For more information, please check out "Phil's Tabletop Guidelines" doc at https://tinyurl.com/5x7nu93m and the Rappan Athuk Guide at https://tinyurl.com/5xmwscns . It will give you more details on how I run the table. This is highly recommended for any wishing to join the campaign. A detailed house rule document going over optional feats, tweaks to combat/classes, etc is available upon request. I look forward to adventuring with you!

How will character creation work
Any new party members joining will be leveled up to match the party, with some beginning gold to spend on gear, as well as beginning magic items if appropriate. I am available often on Discord to answer questions to facilitate the process. We will then meet together to create the character within Foundry's system to facilitate all dice rolls, HP tracking, etc.
