I based my choice on where the party had holes that'd keep me from running the campaign as I've envisioned it, and as it happens for the next stage of the game they could really use—well, that'd be telling. Duncan and Berbas, please report to the Gameplay thread. Everyone else, thank you for your interest, and if any other vacancies open up in the near future I'll drop you a PM.</p>All right, decision time.

<p>Nope—Pathfinder Society is something different. Most PFS games are played face-to-face, though there are a fair number going on via PbP. The majority of PbP games here on the boards, though, are not PFS games. This campaign isn't PFS.</p>
<p>What you do to get your character sheet attached to your alias is to go to the Profile tab. Over on the right should be a button that says Edit My Profile; click that and it'll take you to a page where you can insert stats and a few other things. The last field on that page has a bolded header; in your case it says About Lord Carnage. That's where you insert your character sheet, essentially. Underneath the field is a button labeled Show that'll show you how the formatting codes allowed on the boards—bolding, italicizing, inserting links, making text larger or smaller, inserting out-of-character comments, and rolling dice.</p>ETA: This is a reply to a post by jimibones83 which he seems to have deleted.

My impression is that the group won't have any need for another front liner so I'm aiming for a support build with high dex and charisma. The build will likely be good at handling scouting and trapfinding sport some face skills and be a viable switch hitter with the emphasize likely placed on Archery. </p>
<p>But I'll probably need a few more days to get a build up as I've got a lot of real work to do this week. So if you plan on closing recruitment before Friday I'm prolly gonna have to pass.</p>I'm working on an Archeologist bard.
