There is a lot of variability in how hero points are earned in #pathfinder2e mostly because the guidance is so lean. But these are how I award them. I show my players this list. #dnd #ttrpg

I love the world building you can IMPLY simply by putting titles to the books PCs find. Here is a short list of texts players will find in a NPC Bookcase. Simply throwing a few book names up there will give a peek into the history of the world and the motivations of the NPCs. #pathfinder2e #dnd

I am running a #Pathfinder2e one-shot conversion of DM Dave's Shrine to the Emperor of Bones. And I was inspired to make my own magical trap. Something much more thematic than just a damaging trap. I love Pathfinder's traps and afflictions so much more than #dnd5e #ttrpgs
![Emperor’s Touch Hazard 5
Rare Magical Trap
Stealth DC 18 or Detect Magic
Description Runes are etched along the edge of the archway leading down the hallway. They are shallow and slightly covered by dirt and grime.
Disable Thievery DC 23 (expert), Arcana DC 23 (expert) or Dispel Magic (3rd level; counteract DC 22)
Touch of the Emperor [reaction] (arcane, curse, detection, void) Trigger: a living creature passes through the archway. Effect: The runes on the archway pulse with a sickly light and a wave of energy surges outwards. The triggering creature and all adjacent living creatures make a DC 26 Fortitude save.
Critical Success The target is unaffected
Success The target is Drained 1 and Enfeebled 1 for 1 hour
Failure The target is Drained 1 and Enfeebled 1 while on desecrated ground
Critical Failure The target is Drained 2 and Enfeebled 2 while on desecrated ground
Reset This trap resets daily at dusk.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:tbwt3c23vfm3pwoc3vryrgei/bafkreiav5rf63cdylr3mowdgqy5untzlqvcfcodgbqp7ko3j6ytblh5aua@jpeg)

Whenever I run a long form #ttrpg campaign (used to be #dnd and now #pathfinder2e) I put together a wiki style resource for the players and myself. Sometimes I publish it to the web, sometimes I don't. But I like having a reference do the players that want to read.
I never make it required though.

Ironically, unless he is using magic to light the torch, it takes multiple actions to light one.
And he would also need an action to draw out the flint and steel and also need to have both hands free to use them to light the torch.

I finally got my hands on the Treasure Vault for #pathfinder2e. I had been putting it off because it was pre-remaster, but it doesn't look like much would change.
So Alchemy Unleashed is incoming!

I'm a firm believer in separating game mechanics from world lore.
It's why my #pathfinder2e homebrew world has only two titles for magic users: Magi or Conjurers. Following that vein, all members of the religious organization are given the title of Templar. This is regardless of mechanical ability

A little bit of world building from my homebrew #pathfinder2e setting. A lot of my established lore is in short blurbs like this to give a space for players to expand on or build from. #ttrpg #dnd #pathfinder

My wife got me this book for chanukah and I can't believe how awesome it is.
Dragons have always had a special place in my #pathfinder2e campaign settings, and this book really gives a lot of inspiration for making them interesting and 3d. #ttrpg #dnd #pathfinder

After some feedback from the #pathfinder2e community and some fiddling with layout, I have a mostly finished version of my universal companion sheet. I kind of love it.

Set up at the Melbourne Oddities and Curiosities market in Melbourne, Florida. First vendor market! Clearly I'm missing some accessories.

After being a #Pathfinder2e GM for about 2 years, I finally get the chance to be a player for the first time! I am playing a Goblin Summoner named Nibbigon. His dragon Eidolon is named Xaraxis (Zarzar). Here is some art about him! He wears a ceramic mask to cover the burn scars he got as a child.

People keep asking for some kind of reference card for use with the tokens. After much thought, here is what I threw together. I would like some feedback, on layout and content. #pathfinder #pf2 #dnd

It's been a minute since I was on any socials. Been a crazy couple of months. But I'm still hard at work making stuff! I have concrete dice! New Creature Role Tokens! And re-designed Spell Cards!
I'm loving #pathfinder and I will keep making accessories for the game!

We finally got to play again after a month long break.
I was recovering from surgery and one of my players was having father's day issues. But the return session was full of crazy. Not only did our players meet the BEG, one of the PCs was killed while off alone. #Pathfinder #ttrpg #dnd

1970s #DnD was wild. Dragon Magazine from back in the day was crazy. They had an article "Notes on Women and Magic" and another talks about characters having Allowance.

We had our first #pathfinder session in weeks! I wish I had this sketch of the encounter situation ahead of time, but the session is crazy. The encounter was tough and there were close calls. The terrain made the encounter tougher then it was on paper. #dnd #ttrpg

Maps prepped! NPC statblocks prepped. Plot notes noted. I think I'm ready for Sunday's #pathfinder game session! Wrapping paper is an awesome map tool.

I'm so excited to read through these. I got my hands on some old #dnd modules from back in the day. Apparently they are still available to purchase. I'm reading Keep on the Borderlands and it's not written like any modern modules. #ttrpg #pathfinder

After much deliberation, we have decided to produce the spell cards with multiple border designs. This is border design 1. #dnd #ttrpg #pathfinder #pathfinder2e

After so many hours of typing, reformatting, editing, printing, adjusting, etc. I finally finished the #pathfinder spell cards for player core 1. I still need to make some adjustments because the tiny action symbols seemed to drift when exporting. But I have a draft done! #DnD #ttrpg

After last #pathfinder session's tragic pc death, we had a moving and great session today. The PC's death magically empowered his Leshy familiar, causing them to grow in size and power. The leshy has joined the party to continue the adventure! #DnD #ttrpg
