Under the Ice, PF2E Homebrew Sandbox

About the adventure

Traveling the routes of the Crown of the World is perilous. Between harsh weather, shifting glaciers, and the monsters that such environments tend to attract, there's a reason that you travel in the safety of numbers. That's where you come in, be it hired help, traveling with family, or trying to make your fortune in the markets beyond; you were on this path when something unthinkable happened. The ice splits beneath your feet, and the entire caravan is swallowed. Somehow you survived with a few others, and now you're stuck... Under the Ice! The beginning arc of the game will focus heavily on survival aspects, managing resources in an unfamiliar environment, and tackling the challenges contained within. Players will be encouraged to have backstories, motivations, and plans for the future. The more you put in, the more tools I have to help immerse your character into the story. This is a Pathfinder Second Edition Homebrewed game set in the world of Golarion. The game will start at level 1 and go until the story completes. After the initial intro adventure, spanning level 1, the choices the players make will dictate the course of the story. There are no rails, only adventure!
