A spooky surprise

On this second Wednesday of the month, the Pathfinder Society meets again in the vaults of the association: 08. October 2024 at 17:30 until approx. 23:00 we agents will go on another adventure. It will be the adventure 3-02: The Crocodile’s Smile and will be played in Swiss German (or in standard German if this works better for individual players).

With pressure mounting against the legal claim on one of their lodges, the Society sends a group of heroes to assist in the defense.

Arriving in the Andoran city of Almas, the PCs quickly find themselves doing far more than paperwork when a ghostly specter seemingly accuses the Pathfinder Society of some heinous act. Forced to investigate the ghost’s appearance, it’s up to the PCs to figure out the truth behind the message and what is really going with the so-called “East Hill Haunting”.

The adventure is suitable for characters of levels 1-4. It is also open to new players who do not yet have any role-playing experience and/or are not yet familiar with the Pathfinder system in its 2nd edition.

The Pathfinder Society will meet this April in the vaults of the association – and this time again in the usual rhythm. On 8. May 2024 at 17:30 until approx. 23:00 we agents will go on another adventure. It will be the adventure 5-12: Mischief in the Maze and will be played in Swiss German (or in standard German if this works better for individual players).

The Maze of the Open Road mostly been stabilized, and yet agents are still ending up at the wrong destination. While no one has been hurt, Venture-Captain Sigvard Tornkvist fears that it might be a matter of time until injury or worse results. She tasks the PCs with investigating the cause of these mishaps, and dealing with it if possible.

Little do the PCs know what they’ve gotten themselves into, but there’s a nonzero chance they’ll find themselves in a dance-off before their mission is complete.

The adventure is suitable for characters of levels 1-4. It is also open to new players who do not yet have any role-playing experience and/or are not yet familiar with the Pathfinder system in its 2nd edition.

Excited for thrills and cosmic horror? Then join GM Cenk in April as we delve into the world of Call of Cthulhu, a pen-and-paper role-playing game full of eerie mysteries and unfathomable terrors.

CoC – perfect for D&D veterans and tabletop novices:

D&D veterans: Explore a new genre with unique mechanics and a focus on horror and atmosphere.

Tabletop novices: The Cthulhu rulebook is easy to learn while offering depth. You’ll get a gentle introduction to the genre, and you don’t need to bring anything – dice and characters will be provided 😊.

Unleash your inner detectives:

Step into the roles of investigators, scholars, or adventurers and uncover the dark secrets in the sleepy towns of America.

Decipher cryptic clues, confront unimaginable monsters, and battle the madness threatening to consume you.

Unique gameplay experience:

The system focuses on the horror and fear of the players. Here, you’re not heroes, but at best survivors!

Your characters aren’t invincible heroes but normal people fighting against madness. Fights are quickly over and usually last only one to three rounds.

You’ll venture into America in the year 1920 and fight for survival against the supernatural. Your decisions have clear consequences and can quickly lead to your downfall!

Played in German
on April 18th & 24th from 6 p.m.
provided you’re still alive after the first session 😉

The Pathfinder Society will meet this April in the vaults of the association, albeit a week later than usual. On 17. April 2024 at 17:30 until approx. 23:00 we agents will go on another adventure. It will be the adventure 5-07: Seewer Dragon Crisis and will be played in Swiss German (or in standard German if this works better for individual players).

Some time ago, the Seewer Dragons became allies of the Pathfinder Society. But unfortunately, the Society failed to fulfill their obligations due to adverse circumstances – and now Chief Yiddlepode is reminding them to keep their end of the bargain.

For the goblin tribe is not only struggling with attacks on their tribal territory in the sewers beneath the streets of Absolom. There is also a growing number of voices within the tribe who believe that Chief Yiddlepode is no longer acceptable and are taking matters into their own hands.

Will the Society’s agents manage to restore the trust of the Seewer Dragons and help the tribe?

The adventure is suitable for characters of levels 1-4. It is also open to new players who do not yet have any role-playing experience and/or are not yet familiar with the Pathfinder system in its 2nd edition.

The Mists of Ravenloft await you!

Welcome, Adventurer!

For the second time as a GM, I am setting out on the paths through the cursed realms of Barovia – the domain of Count Strahd von Zarovich.

As an experienced game master I offer you the epic campaign Curse of Strahd for Dungeons & Dragons 5e. Experience:

  • A captivating adventure – The technical refinements of the KuL room bring the Count’s dark realm to (un)life around you.
  • Multifaceted role-play – Explore the secrets and agendas of diverse characters to drag enemies into the light and find allies in the darkness.
  • Tactical battles – KuL’s battle screens challenge your strategic skills in the fight against the dark hordes.

Are you ready to accept your fate and face the horror? Then join me and venture into the shadows of Curse of Strahd. But be warned – many have already fallen victim to the curse of Strahd in the Land of Lost Souls…

Organisation

Frequency and game days: On 2-3 Tuesday or Wednesday evenings per month we make the streets of Barovia a little safer.

Costs: This paid campaign costs CHF 50 per player per session. This includes my session preparation, the actual playing time and the contribution to the KuL rent.
The price is too high for you? Let me know!

Players: Whether newcomer or veteran; all are welcome in the Land of the Prince. The campaign offers space for 4-5 players.

Language: The campaign can be held in German or English. Please let me know your language preferences and options.

Update 22.3.: Up until now there are two players who both prefer Tuesdays and German as game-dates and -language.

Outline

We will start with an (unpaid) session 0, where we will get to know each other, clarify expectations and boundaries and create your characters. This will probably take place at the end of April.

After that we will start with the first adventure, which will keep us busy for 2-3 evenings. You can get to know me as GM and then decide whether we will face the first act of the campaign together.

The campaign is divided into acts, which allows us to decide after each act how to continue, to welcome new warriors to Barovia or to say goodbye to old adventurers.

Who is the GM?

Hi, I’m Tim. In addition to my work in nursing and my Kung Fu training, I love playing and running PnP roleplaying games. In the last few years I’ve run three multi-year campaigns, including Curse of Strahd, as well as one with up to 8 players.

I founded the Arcanor community campaign, wrote my own adventures, introduced newcomers to the hobby at Herofest and set up the KuL room – not least so I had somewhere to put all my books on the subject.

I really enjoy sharing my passion for role-playing games with others and I’m looking forward to many more exciting adventures in the future. But even before I became a GM, I was very involved in a DSA-campaign and learnt a lot in the process.

Now I’m really looking forward to a new chapter with you!

You can find out more about me here.

Disclaimer

Curse of Strahd is a horror campaign and includes topics such as physical, psychological and sexualised violence and violence against children. We can discuss our boundaries and the use of safety tools, such as the X-card, at Session 0.

I’m in!
Hooray! Then get in touch with me at
