Overview
A strange light in the sky holds a danger unknown for ten thousand years! Deep beneath Golarion's surface, the greatest shame of the elves is stirring once more. Seething with hatred, the drow have come up with a plan to wipe out their ancient enemies and bring a second Age of Darkness. And this time, there's only the heroes to stop them...
-- Paizo's Second Darkness Adventure Path description
Character Creation
We'll are using the Standard Fantasy point buy (15 points).
Players may use any rules (feats, class abilities, spells, etc.) from the Pathfinder Core Rule book. Material from other sources maybe used, but it needs to be run by the group first.
Each character gets three traits (one campaign, two general) from the Second Darkness Companion and begins with max starting gold. Traits are essentially mini-feats -- each one grants a bonus equal to about half of a normal feat. All characters start at 1st level.
We are using the Hero Points rules from the Advanced Players Guide. All characters start with one hero point; those who complete a character background start with two.
Campaign Rules
- Points rules (see above)
- We use the Critical Fumbles and Critical Hits decks, in the form of the iCrit and iFumble apps from Paizo.
