Fledgling agents spiral into insanity as they struggle to stop the incursion
at any cost

For this campaign, I took a number of official scenarios and heavily modified them to include common themes, move them closer together in space and time, and foreshadow the later scenarios.

This is a complete theater-of-the-mind campaign. We don’t use any visuals–I just try to do my best with descriptions. I do occasionally use some ambient audio to assist with immersion, but this is a live production so it’s nothing crazy.

A mysterious string of incidents strike the small town of Otari. Our group of adventurers step up to save the community.

We had been wanting to try out PF2e for a while, so I ran the adventures designed as a tutorial and introduction to the game. I tried to keep the game as close to the rules as written as possible so that we could get an accurate feel for the system.

This one is run through foundry using its excellent PF2e support. So we have pretty nice looking maps and tokens for everything. This campaign is pretty strongly combat focused, as the system leans heavily in that direction.

Our group of adventurers search for a tome esoteric enough to permit their entry to Candlekeep. Each of them seeks different answers from its mysterious archives

A friend’s campaign needed to take a hiatus, so I stepped in to cover their players with a short campaign in the meantime.

We weren’t sure how long the hiatus would need to be, so we decided on playing through some of the adventures from Candlekeep Mysteries until their original GM was ready to get things going again. That way, we could finish the campaign at the end of one of the short mysteries.

We started at level 3, and got through Book of the Raven, Shemshine’s Bedtime Rhyme, and The Price of Beauty.

Some of these players stuck around for future campaigns of mine!

A bunch of strangers seek a secret society after a series of strange dreams. As they uncover more hidden truths, they discover a plot with the universe at stake

This one starts a little spotty while we get started. I was new to this and we were all new to roleplaying with eachother. We soon find out style and our footing, and it continually gets better as we go. I’m very proud of how it all ended, and think it is still some of my best work. I don’t think I’ll ever do another super-long campaign like this again (it spanned 4 years and 200 episodes), but I’m very glad I finished this one.

I recommend you start in the final arc. By that point, we’ve definitely improved significantly, and it’s easily the best part of the story. It’s also relatively self-contained. Previous arcs foreshadowed it, but most other plot threads were already wrapped up before the heroes tackled this last, impossible task.
