Update: Yesterday, I ran a last minute one-shot at a LGS. My normal game had to be canceled because 5 of 6 players were sick. I went to the store and was able to find a couple players who were available. I threw together a short adventure, and we had a great time. #pathfinder2e #pathfinder #ttrpg

A real bummer today. My relatively new bi-weekly game has had some attendance issues from the very second week. Meeting every other week is already infrequent. It's a table of 6 players, and we have had at least two people missing each game for the past 5 sessions. #Pathfinder #pathfinder2e #ttrpg

I don't know how you keep coming up with great ideas, but the map designs and narrative blubs are amazing!

I wonder how much of the inventory is still in sellable condition. Being in a warehouse for over a year can cause issues if the warehouse isn't properly maintained. Hopefully Paizo and all the other publishers are able to recover enough inventory to protect themselves.

My player snapped this picture (posted with permission), showing how the encounter started. 3 of the PCs were off the map at the time, and needed to spend 2 actions just to get to the edge.

In my #pathfinder2e game, demons and demonic association are anathema for society. And one of my players knowingly made their character have a demon patron. But the character thinks it's an angel. They are having a blast Roleplaying the internal suspicion and the fear of discovery.

I ran Summoning on Henge Isle on Tuesday of last week, and the adventure went great! Sadly, we didn't finished it before the store had to close. However, with 4 new to #pathfinder2e players, I am quite satisfied with the outcome. #ttrpg #pathfinder #dnd

Prepping for my upcoming #pathfinder2e session as we complete the Rusthenge adventure by @paizo.com. Playing in person is the best and wrapping paper is a wonderful map resource. My players are just about to infiltrate the Temple and they are mildly unprepared. 🤣 #ttrpg #dnd #pathfinder

Pathfinder has a whole host of undead character options, none of which seem overpowered. But I was curious, how many players and GMs have run/played in games with a mix of undead and living player characters? What was the game like? #ttrpg #dnd #pathfinder #pathfinder2e

I am so far behind on these show because I came into it late. But I am catching up! Episode 77!! This is by far one of the best Actual Plays I have ever listened to. The voice acting is great, the adherence to the rules is spot on, and the GM style is awesome. #pathfinder #ttrpg

Part of my #ttrpg adventure design goals are to use as few sentences as possible. So this is how I describe my NPCs. Also, I am hilarious. The #Pathfinder2e adventure is 4 pages, includes a map, and is around 1000 words. Keep an eye out for updates!

The PCs are exploring a haunted castle and they come across a pair of ghost children singing in the courtyard while dancing around a tree. In an attempt to bury the skeletons and get them to rest, they are attacked by a giant bat that tried to carry one of them away. Chaos ensued! #pathfinder2e #dnd

Paizo provides a huge number of Pregens for players to use. One for each of the 25+ classes. And those Pregens are a mix both genders and all sorts of ancestries. I am proud that most players I gmed for don't really mind playing a character of the opposite gender. #Pathfinder #ttrpg #dnd

I had a blast running my #pathfinder2e session a couple days ago. I forgot to take pictures though. The players searched a delapidated manor house, fought a zombie owlbear, dealt with a magical trap, were hit with a curse, and the final fight was a fog filled battle with a mage. #dnd #ttrpg

My #pathfinder2e players are going through the famous #dnd adventure Lost Mines of Phandelver that I converted and modified. They are about to deal with the Redbrands in Phandalin and I wrote two notes for them to find. I definitely used some of the advice from the Chunky Funster on YouTube for it.

Mosaic
Greatsword, legendary (requires attunement)

Gleaming in multicolored shades of glass, this greatsword is constantly in a state of unmaking and remaking itself as shards of glass swirl around it, occasionally reslotting themselves in their original place before swirling outward again. When held in the sunlight, this gleaming sword creates a dazzling display of multi-colored refractions that project themselves on the landscape around the wielder. You have a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with this magical weapon.

When you hit a target with a melee weapon attack using this weapon, you can choose whether to deal magical slashing, fire, acid, lightning, poison, or cold damage. While attuned to this weapon, you can use each of the following abilities once per day, resetting daily at dawn.

Colorful Cascade. You use once action to speak a command word causing the weapon to cast prismatic spray (DC 19 Dexterity saving throw).

Wondrous Wall. You use one action to slash the sword through the air causing it to cast prismatic wall  (DC 19 Constitution saving throw).

#pathfinder GMs out there, how many of you use the supplemental books (like Book of the Dead or Rage of Elements) in your games and what kind of experience have you had with your players? I love the stuff in those books, but I don't want to overwhelm my new players with options.

Its been months and things are still crazy. But I am finally running #Pathfinder2e games again. I have really missed my #ttrpg fix, and I was getting discouraged. Finding new players/groups in an area you aren't familiar with sucks! But don't get discouraged, keep at it, go to venues.
