Menace Under Otari

Synopsis

Paizo came out with one of their first fully Foundry VTT functional, prepared adventures in the introductory beginner boxed set Menace Under Otari. The players created some level 2 characters and we even had the return of Boris!

From the published module:

The small seaside town of Otari is known for its fresh fish and skilled sailors, but above all, it’s a big logging town, providing valuable wood to the nearby metropolis of Absalom. But for you, Otari is home. You grew up playing on the docks, getting lost in the nearby woods, and hearing the fantastical stories of travelers from faraway lands, tales of terrifying dragons and virtuous knights. Such adventure always seemed so distant- until today.
Word has begun to spread around Otari that there’s a problem down at the Otari Fishery. Some are saying that some sort of beast is lurking in the basement, feeding on the stores of salted fish. Folks are worried that whatever is eating the fish might get hungry enough to eat the fishers next!
You’ve received a letter from Tamily Tanderveil, the owner of the Fishery. Inside is a desperate plea for help. With the town guard busy protecting the loggers, she needs a few brave souls to venture down into the basement of her warehouse and put an end to the beast that’s feasting on her fish! Do you have the courage to face the menace under Otari?

There wasn’t much to explain for this short two or three shot.

• The players got to practice making new characters
• They got recruited to investigate strange occurrences at a local fish merchant
• They explored a small underground complex infested with giant rats and kobolds
• Everyone cheered and celebrated the brave new adventurers
