I think I'm the only person at Breakout Con running Pathfinder 2e! Which is wild considering how many games are running, including lots of D&D AL, but no PFS either! I suppose I'll just think of it as me being able to run a very exclusive offering... 😅

I’m working on a 1 page dungeon that I’m trying to have finished for Breakout Con! I really wanted to push myself in terms of writing, art and layout! But 10 minutes of drawing in isometric perspective has broken my brain. 😅 I need SO much practice in composition! I guess I’ll be getting it…
