[Time]: Wednesdays ~ 7:30 PM - 3 Hours Maximum [Platform]: Foundry/Discord [Requirements]: Mic/Discord/Foundry [Summary]: Please read before applying This game is gonna be set in a late 90s inspired world, like small town America with dial-up internet, payphones, old TVs, arcades, grocery stores, that kind of vibe. It starts off really normal, like everyday life, but then high magic stuff starts leaking into the world and everything slowly changes. It’s not full fantasy at the start. No castles or dragons walking around yet. Just regular people dealing with weird stuff that shouldn’t exist. Races and Classes are limited. For ancesteries you can pick Human, Dwarf, Elf, Gnome, or Halfling or Nephilim but here’s the important part: everyone is still basically human. There aren’t different species walking around. The race you pick is more like how the weird magic in the world affected you. So a “dwarf” is just a tougher, denser person. An “elf” is someone quicker and more perceptive. It’s flavor and mechanics, not actual fantasy races living in town. So yeah, the idea is you all start as normal people with normal jobs, in a normal place, and then things start going very wrong. Session 1 is about surviving that first night and figuring out what kind of person your character really is when stuff hits the fan. After that, we’ll move into the real campaign. The full list of job backgrounds available will be at the end,.

Character Creation Restrictions: Level: 1 Backgrounds: List Below Ancestries: ONLY Human, Dwarf, Elf, Gnome, Halfling, Nephilim, Half-Elf, Half-Orc Classes: ONLY Barbarian, Fighter, Gunslinger, Investigator, Kineticist, Monk, Ranger, Rogue, Sorcerer (Arcane or Primal)

Why the Class and Ancestry Restrictions? Magic in this setting is brand new to the world. It hasn’t existed for thousands of years like in normal Pathfinder settings. The Surge is the first time anything like this has ever happened, so there are no wizard schools, ancient spell traditions, or established churches granting divine powers. People are only just starting to experience strange abilities, and no one fully understands what’s going on yet. Because of that, only classes that rely on physical skill or instinctive magic are available at the start. Anything that would normally require long-standing magical traditions, divine relationships, or secret occult knowledge simply doesn’t exist yet in the world. The ancestry limits work the same way. There aren’t different fantasy species living together. Everyone is still human. The ancestry you choose just represents how the Surge changed your body or mind in subtle ways, giving you different traits or instincts. It’s more about how the magic affected you than what race you are.

I’ll be collecting applications over the next little while and will get back to people once I feel the group is filled with like-minded players. Please be patient, as I like to take my time and be a bit discerning so we end up with a cohesive group that works well together.

‼️ I’ve received plenty of applications for frontliners and magic-focused characters, but there’s still room for someone who enjoys playing a skill-focused hero.
