Intro Hey there! My name is Solar(they/them), I am 22, and I am a long term DM looking to start up a new campaign based on pathfinder 1st edition with the adventure path "King Maker". I've been running several games, whether homebrew or from a pre-made campaign for about six or so years now, and am someone who prefers to tell a story with my players rather then to my players. I like to think of myself as someone always happy to work with you on a game, and open to whatever you may suggest long as it doesn't hurt anyone else's fun. New-Commer-Campaign The current want for this campaign is to introduce those unfamiliar with the pathfinder system into it, and in a more narrative, less number crunchy setting. To be explicitly clear, this is a campaign where we're straying away from a lot of the making broken builds, and mechanical focus of pathfinder, instead focusing on how the system handles producing narrative moments with mechanics well. All a really nice way to say, powergaming will be frowned upon, so while I'm not only accepting new-commers, they tend to fit the bill here easier. If you've never played pathfinder 1e and want to learn it in a setting where you won't be expected to know every rule, or how to set up a character that won't hit roadblocks down the road, you're in the right place. Setting As we'll be using the "King Maker" adventure path, the most prevalent areas to this campaign will all be within the stolen lands. There's a whole players guide I provide going over lore of the area, and where you could've came from within Golarian, but as a whole it's a pretty standard medieval fantasy setting. We'll be sticking to as much wanting to create your normal fantasy narrative, which just means we'll keep away from pathfinder's futuristic races/items, or other things that don't necessarily fit the medieval fantasy setting. You can expect this campaign to take place, and run your characters through a grand fantasy adventure, see you leading and creature kingdoms/towns, and being praised as heroes. A large focus of which this campaign has is your party being the leaders of an expanding empire, and the people and problems that're going to try and get in the way of that. If you've ever wanted to roleplay as a dignitary, or king while also getting your hands dirty on an epic fantasy adventure, this is the story for you. Expectations I am someone who is happy to work with you to tell whatever story you're wanting to tell within my campaign, so all I truly expect is investment into the game, and who your character is. Which I won't even leave you high and dry on, I will provide resources and situations to test your idea of your character, if it seems a bit flat or one-sided, to hopefully push your writing into a character you can be excited to step into every session. As for knowing any rules, I am perfectly happy to entirely teach the game, these games are meant to be beginner friendly and encourage more roleplaying then any specific challenge knowledge of the system as said previous. Most of this will also be discussed session 0, as well as a lot more. We will go over many different rules, and otherwise general game ideas, like the prevalence of revival in the setting, and see what the party as a whole feels most comfortable with doing. This is a welcome environment for anybody in the LGBTQ+ community! Any and all discriminatory or hateful comments are not tolerated. Any person(s) whose actions in or out of game make other players or myself uncomfortable will be asked to stop, then removed from the game if the behavior continues. As a small note we do plan to use foundry for our vtt of choice. You don't need to actually do anything except make a free account, same as roll20, it's just a better optimized vtt for pathfinder 1e(roll20 doesn't support it well). Lastly I as an adult myself, would prefer only persons 18 or over apply. Rates / Scheduling The rate of the game will just be $15 usd paid via venmo or paypal before the beginning of each session. This excludes session 0 of course, as that is for character building, and making sure everyone will be onboard with the game presented and each other. Currently looking for just one extra person to the mix. Scheduling wise, I will be looking to have the game on Thursday nights at 6:00 pm CST. Games will be anywhere from 3 to 4ish hours depending on the group's energy / want. Contact If you've read up till now, I truly appreciate it, and would be delighted if you reached out!
