I wasn't sure if I should dot and delete in gameplay, or if I should introduce my character.
First Post:
Emmanuel bids goodbye to the River Kingdoms and its lovely clientele. He grooms his hair, checks his armor, straps his lute and coils his whip at his hip.
Don't forget to smile.
He arrivess at the port of Anthusis and says hello and greetings to everyone he meets. It's a lot easier to read people's emotions, understand their thoughts and say the right words to get what he needs. Nice. Shylye's tips have helped him out. She still wears too much jewelry, even if it's a "negotiation aid."

I'll hand out my glyph hero points to Emmanual and Roumatha. Don't have any interesting boons to slot, I'll take a feather step stone as my school item.

Ooh thanks for the hero point Kohl! That's tremendous!
Roumatha will slot Experienced Mountaineer - slot boon to treat mountainous terrain as difficult, because he doesn't really have anything else to slot.
Just as a heads up, I expect my posts to be limited until next week due to the Thanksgiving holiday here in the US. Even with the anticipated delays or limited posts this week, I anticipate that we will wrap up the scenario around mid-December.
Happy Thanksgiving for those who celebrate. And I wish you all safety and good health.

Kohl, your flail is +1 striking right?
Yes, it is. And I somehow managed to mess up my attack bonus! I should be attacking at +13. Oops!
GM, feel free to ret-con or not as you see fit. My mistake.

Looks good to me. Forgot I rolled so terribly on my downtime though. >:(

Thanks a lot, and well done on getting published! Did you start via Freelance Forge, Wayfinder or did you have some adventures for 3rd parties under your belt?
I started out submitting to open calls for contributors way back during the d20 Boom. I contributed a number of magic items and monsters to the Scarred Lands setting. One of my monster, the Unholy Chorus, even made it into the first (and only) volumes of Monte Cook Presents: The Year's Best d20 and can be seen on the lower righthand corner of the cover. I also wrote fairly regularly for Fantasy Flight games in the early 2000s.
Then, came a law career and three kids.
About few years back, I submitted to Paizo's open call for PFS scenarios. That eventually led to my first quest, "Collection".
I joined Freelance Forge after my quest with Paizo was published. They are a great group of folks and have helped me get to know people in the industry and build friendships.

Oh, so I'm actually playing through your scenario right now in another game here without realizing it :D Nice!
Thank you for sharing your story; my first credit is going to be Battlezoo Bestiary after the 2020 RPGSS, I guess I better check out Freelance Forge too!
Congrats on your upcoming publication! And I hope you are enjoying the other scenario. Feel free to PM me with a critique or if you have questions about writing for the gaming industry that I may be able to help you with. Definitely check out Freelance Forge.
I'll be marking this thread inactive in 24 hours. Happy gaming all!

I also really recommend submitting to Wayfinder when they are accepting articles. It's another great way to get started.
Everyone in Freelance Forge is really great, and I'm sure would be able to offer lots of advice and support.
If you are interested in continuing, I'd also reach out to 3PP companies. They are often looking for new talent with a few publications under their belts.
