What is on offer?
I'd like to run The Pallid Plague of Season 0 for a bunch of intrepid Pathfinders.
'Reports from Andoran's Darkmoon Vale indicate that a new plague is causing the deaths of untold fey. The Pathfinder Society sends you there to aid the nymph queen in stopping the plague and finding and destroying its source. When the plague spreads to the human population of Falcon's Hollow, the need to find a cure grows more frantic. Can you save the many denizens of Darkmoon Vale from certain death?'
What I am looking for
I am looking for 4-6 characters but will likely settle on 4-5 characters. This scenario plays OK at T1-2 but better at T3-4 or T6-7. Post your submissions with your PFS character link for consideration. I will look at all Tiers of applicants before making my decision and will inform applicants before locking in players if a choice on Play Up or Play Down is required.
Along with your link, just give a summary regarding the character - don't need an essay just a few paragraphs about them and their career to date. Strictly this isn't a PFS requirement but I also want to see your writing. Ideally the game is more fun when players engage with each other and roleplay and is easier with players who take the time to spell correctly etc.
Game play will be here on the forums and via Roll20.net
What I Need from you
Firstly I need a commitment from anyone applying*. PFS PbP games can take about 4-6 weeks time to play out and during that time you can't use that character in other PFS games. I need players who won't disappear midway through - its not fair on the other players, real life issues aside.
I'd like players to be able to commit to 1-3 posts a day for 5 days a week. If you can do that and you're interested, please apply. If work or family issues come up, just post on the Discussion forum and its all good, otherwise I will have the character miss their turn after 2-3 days.
Once I've selected the final players, I'll need a final confirmation that you're in and a vote on playing up or down if needed. If you are ok with moving forward I will lock you in.
*Note that 'stuff happens' and I'll try to accommodate those hit a reef. I have, from time to time, been delayed as a GM as well by the 'Real Life Monster'.
You need to have a character profile completed and a status line set up
I need to be able to see your character stats in the profile in a clear and organised manner - a link to a character sheet on Google isn't going to fly. I also need a status line set up on your character profile (normally I use the gender line of the profile). It needs to look something like this...
AC 18 FF17 Touch11 HP 18/[18] CMB +5 CMD 20 Fort +4, Ref + 2, Will +4 Init + 5 Percept +6 Sense Mot + 6 Channel Energy 3/[3]
... and I'll need you to keep it updated.
Finally, if you want to use your previous chronicles, scan them and provide a link to the site you use to store them. Some people use Dropbox, some use Google, I use Skydrive. Heck you can email them to me if you really want.
Recruitment ends a week from now...

Hmmmm... I have no Idea what in the world a 'Pallid Plague' or 'season 0' is... But I am always interested in new things...
Does anybody enjoy a morbid Alchemist? who is half interested in exterminating/curing the disease, and half interested in using it?
I would love to play a morbid/snarky character if it fits in :) I just got the Advanced Players guide

Sounds like an interesting concept. Just remember the PFS prohibition on evil characters. Such a character played as a manic depressive Chaotic Neutral could be great.

"How many times per day do you touch your face? if I put poison on your bootlace, how long would it take before it managed to make it into your mouth?" he smiles as he mixes a clump of grey dust with a bright blue liquid... "or I coated the bottom of your cooking pot..."
"Did you know that nearly fifteen people die from poisons and diseases every week?" the alchemist says happily while fending off an undead horror that spits poison.

I'm not sure joking constantly about poisoning your colleagues counts as Good but I am not gonna police your alignment.
He finds it fascinating. like insectomologists think it is interesting to inform people that beetles and worms get into like 35% of breads...
creepy, nasty, and nausiating, but to them. Fascinating.
He won't do it with just poisons, but also with possibly organs and death in general.
