OPEN AP APPLICATIONS FOR PCS TO JOIN AND GMS TO RECRUIT!

Game Master Divinitus

well it would seem that my paladin for Wrath of the Righteous has fallen victim to the vanishing DM for the third time now. so here she is once again.

Just want to throw in my application. Any AP will do except Giantslayer, which I'm running. I'm highly experienced in PF and will roll up anything the party needs.

not so sure this is getting much attention anymore.

noticed many more private only games coming in. most recruitment threads have been homebrew games and many are invite only.

Also I have been in some recruitment threads where I did not get in (expected form time to time) but here is a suggestion to GM's out there.

When an opening does occur in your game, and you said at the end of your recruitment that you will consider those not chosen if anyone drops... Then actually do that.

I have seen a few games loose a player and the GM bypassed the original recruitment and privately invited someone else that never applied in the first place.

GMs can notice people who are active and contributing to other games, or who make an effort to find a way to fit in, and that's a positive sign. Who GMs select to play in games is ultimately their own business.

There is one way to get into a game, GM yourlself something you really like! :)

If everyone GMs something, we would be able to play 4 or 5 games for each one we GM.

I definitely don't mind an idea like that Bala.

's part of the reason I'm running two games right now. ;)

I'll play any class in any AP you need.

I don't really understand the point of creating a recruitment thread when all you're doing is inviting people you know are playing. o_O They're... not necessary, are they?

As far as open recruitments go, the Northlands Saga Complete should be out soonish. According to a recent update, the PF version has gone through final approval, and the S&W version is currently being worked on. ^^ Shouldn't take too much longer for it to be released. I may check here for applicants in addition to whoever gets posted in the thread - the main thing I'll be looking for is characters who can fit in a nordic setting.

I'll play any class in any AP you need.

I'm trying to get a Shattered Star game together. It'll be livestreamed, if that bothers you, but if it doesn't, you'll be more than welcome.

Here I am, the Defender of The Eternal Rose

I would really love to play either a Jade Regent, Carrion Crow, or Giantslayer campaign, for any who have positions available.

Added Goldi to the available character list she is ready for Price of Immortality trilogy or at least the Crypt of the Everflame

Adding Derric the Kitsune Cavalier to Jade Regent. Almost ready besides background, personality, and description.

Added Lyrev the Half-Orc Sorceress to Reign of Winter.

Also added Kubi and Teodoriga to Iron Gods.

Added Meresu and Khere to Mummy's Mask.

Added a segment for the Northlands Saga Complete in the "Other" tab, joining War of the Burning Sky and Legendary Planet.

After the holiday season I will starting up a homebrew campaign of sorts using old living greyhawk modules set in Golarion. I have a couple people already involved will probably take in 2 to 4 more. I will be looking in the any tab for possible applicants, and I will totally accept pm's with interest as well. Thank you for your time.

Here's a modified CotCT campaign that I'm working on. If any of you find it interesting, go ahead and apply!

Ok again a come to see what games are offered.

here is a character for the almost never recruiting Way of the Wicked.

I'm up for just about any game - particularly Hell's Rebels if it becomes free. I'll make characters for whatever is available. Feel free to check out my current characters for some examples.

I communicate quite a bit with GM's to make the character concepts as true and interesting as possible. :)

I have some characters already planted here that I had purposefully marked for certain campaigns, but I am looking for any campaign out there. preferences, I have because I have played some with friends in person, but better to try anything just once.

for those who want to hear the preferences:
reign of winter
carrion crown
hells rebels
mummys mask
rise of the runelords
jade regent
skull and shackles
giant slayer

again, those are only preferences. I'm looking forward to join any campaign if nothing else for the sake of telling a story once more.

I am a former home-game GM that had to cancel my live gaming life due to scheduling conflicts. I have GM'd Books 1 and (most of) 2 of Runelords and book 1 of Crimson Throne. I'm now looking for a PbP campaign (due in part to the flexible time requirements).

My GM and PC style has been described as extremely "theatric" in that I place great emphasis on mood. As a GM I will spend hours selecting the right music, lighting, props, and developing an appropriate written "script" to present to my players. I am less interested in "crunch" and tend to favor characterization and story. I love the written word!

For an example, here is a link to my website content for a former home campaign (Curse of the Crimson Throne SPOILERS).

I am especially interested in RotR (yes, even though I've played it--I am excellent at keeping my mouth shut) and Carrion Crown, though I am certainly open to other APs.

When I was on here before my absence I tried to run a game on here, but it failed quite poorly and I have since learned where I went wrong. I am a tabletop GM and found PBP GM'ing a lot harder, however I think I shall put myself out there to try and run another game.

This will be in the new year though and I shall make the recruitment thread once I have gone over everything and re-read the adventure path that I wish to run. So any little tips on PBP GM'ing would be a welcome help.

There's a bit of advice available.

I second GM Rednal's linking of Painlord's guide.

As a long time tabletop player, I had to stop running all my campaigns after my daughter was born. I was also getting burned out because I was always the GM and never the player (No one else in my group would step up to run) so I'm here now to play some APs.

I'm pretty much interested in running anything. I can run this character, but I also have multiple other builds and can pretty much fill any needed role (Healer, Controller, DPS, I even have a great Tank build). I can also adjust to any play style (Role\Roll playing).

Hey ya all. I posted a recruitment thread for a Kingmaker game that needs a few more players. I'm going to re-post the post here to see about if anyone wants to apply. Please apply within the thread there. Thank you!

Recruitment Thread

A rough looking man walks forward to a crowd gathered.

"Right then. I see many here, that is good! The charter that was sent into the Stolen Lands needs a couple more good men and women!" He pulls out a large scroll and reads it. "We need a person knowledgeable of healing, and another that is simply knowledgeable! All may apply, but only a few can join! I will stick this on the tree and you can see what is required! Right, with that is done, I'll be waiting in the nearby Inn for ya. Also, whom will apply, will need to be self-motivated!" He takes the unfurled scroll and pulls out a dagger and stabs the scroll onto the tree.

Here what the scroll describes.

• 20PB
  
• Two Traits, one being a Kingmaker trait - Can take a drawback for an extra trait
  
• Unchained Background are okay
  
• Only Pathfinder material
  
• Start at Second level
  
• Start with Second level gold

Post your character build and backstory within the recruitment thread. If you are chosen, you will be directed to our discussion thread.

Thanks, Markov!

I know it isn't a Pathfinder AP, but this might be the second-best place to throw out a flare.

Looking for someone to pick up playing a mostly-undefined paladin in the Homecoming Campaign. Only real requirements are a) character's race is Eberron-style changeling (minor shape-shifting ability), and b) character is a non-local (coming from the south of Mosval, the campaign starting point). Virtually everything else - character background, gender, crunchy details, etc. - are available for you to define.

Welp, after a game that only lasted a whole 3 weeks, here's Kuzu again for any AP other than crimson throne (which I am currently running).

For anyone looking for a supreme challenge with a nice Gestalt / Unchained play, I'm hosting a homebrew dungeon based game, sort of a Dark Souls knock off in regards to how it will play.

I try to recruit from people already looking for a game, and hate bump posts, so here is the link!

Information outside of what is normally given to introduce a game is purposefully withheld to show just how "foreign" to you this entire place is xD

I am a former home-game GM that had to cancel my live gaming life due to scheduling conflicts. I have GM'd Books 1 and (most of) 2 of Runelords and book 1 of Crimson Throne. I'm now looking for a PbP campaign (due in part to the flexible time requirements).

My GM and PC style has been described as extremely "theatric" in that I place great emphasis on mood. As a GM I will spend hours selecting the right music, lighting, props, and developing an appropriate written "script" to present to my players. I am less interested in "crunch" and tend to favor characterization and story. I love the written word!

I am especially interested in RotR (yes, even though I've played it--I am excellent at keeping my mouth shut) and Carrion Crown, though I am certainly open to other APs.

I'm just had a healer drop out of a livestreamed roll 20 Shattered Star game. Does that interest you?

Would be interested in almost any AP but Iron gods, kingmaker would be preferred. I have never done PbB before.

I am still hoping for a Wrath of Righteous game that can last longer that the introduction.

I built this character for 4 different ones and was not selected the first one and the other three died either in recruitment or right after starting.

well now.. I wonder the value of this thread anymore.

It seemed to be working well but I seldom see any reference to this thread for players or replacements players.

some things I have noticed:
1. games begin with open recruitment and several are not selected (expected really) but the one post I see often and actually find a bit frustrating:

"If a spot opens up I (the GM) will check back here for replacements" --- this almost NEVER happens.

2. most replacements are now coming via friends of current players via private recruitment's.

I guess I speak from experience here, having not been selected in games and foolishly believed the post of the GM saying that they will check back regularly to the original recruitment for replacements.

So please to all the GM's out there. I ask is honesty in your games. If you will not be asking original applicants to be replacements then don't post that you will.

Also If you GM's need players or are wondering which game to run... take a look here you can find which type games have plenty of interest and will probably have the most success.

Here's one for you...this is to let anyone who wanted to play RotRL AE, or/and play in Eberron, I have a recruitment going on right now, and would love to see people bringing in some incredible stories.

In regards to your post Edward, I can't speak to any other DM's, but we don't know if they do check back, and find that no one else fit their personal criteria...it's hard to say. Because they will never post "I checked, and none of you are what I want. Sorry."

I think this board works well for the community. It may not affect all individual players, all the time, but it has positively affected some, and that is good for the community. :)

I've just sent out about fifty PM's to people who had characters up on the RotRL Excel file, or stated they were interested in "any" or "RotRL" on this board, inviting them to come apply for my campaign. I've also posted on Reddit. I did not send PM's to the "any" characters on the file, as I was 50 in by that point, lol.

the only reasons I did not apply was 1) it was RotRL which I am in a few already, 2) It is in Eberron (which I know nothing about)

Kawa Nami, Oni-Spawn psychic, now up for any campaign.

This player is interested. I just don't have a character ... I suppose I could dig up an old one, but they're all variations on a theme, and I'd really like to try something different. I've got a concept (or at least most of one), but not nearly enough system mastery to build it alone. Not to mention, a preference for hardcopy and a distinct lack of non-online resources...

Still looking for someone for Homecoming.

looked at the homecoming... not sure about that one...

in any event still looking for a wrath of righteous game. have had 3 failed ones so far.

Have a paladin that I have been trying to play for a very long time in one.

I read the intro to PBP here and I assumed this is where I should go to find a game to play?

I created a forum to try PBP and it seems like none of my past players are interested in keeping up with posting, so I'm branching out. I've played D&D since 2nd edition, and I've played one Pathfinder campaign. I've DMed for over 10 years.

I've got a 9th Level Rogue (custom developed mobile character sheet: http://erbtech.com/dnd/belie/).

Or I'm willing to start at Level 1.

I'll play anything, and do just about anything as long as it's a high fantasy campaign, no star wars or anything like that. Swords & Magic.

If I'm posting this in the wrong place, I'm sorry and please let me know.

I've DMed for along time, so if anyone wants me to run a game, I'm even willing to do that, but I don't know anything about this forum.

P.S. I used Vanilla Forums free software for my game (v3p.org/dnd) and it's been really great with email notifications AND it's mobile friendly if anyone is wanting to run their own game that way.

looked at the homecoming... not sure about that one...

in any event still looking for a wrath of righteous game. have had 3 failed ones so far.

Have a paladin that I have been trying to play for a very long time in one.

Looks like there is interest in a Wrath game over on this thread.

You are in the right place, Ellis.

Put a link to your character(s) in the Excel file, likely under the 'any' tab.

You can also browse this recruitment forum for games that might interest you to join, and see if they are still recruiting. Some DM's will ask you to make the stat sheet, some just some will ask you to come up with a character concept.

There are good guides for pbp's on here, especially Painlord's.

Welcome to the community. :)

already posted there.

but I am having my doubts about that thread.

what I mean is I believe that the game will most likely be Rappan. but I will refrain.

Sorry all...

Remember, not every GM checks this thread - it never hurts to keep an active eye on Recruitment. ^^

Dorin Thell added to the AP application list (Any, but specifically Stolen Lands). CN Cleric of Azathoth, so he obviously won't appeal to every GM, but I intentionally made choices for the character that would lend to party cohesion (like positive channeling and having a distaste for evil actions).

Dorin is reasonable, if paranoid, but doesn't believe in a higher law beyond Entropy (change over time).

Oh, hello there.

Add me to the applicant list please! Love playing APs and have moved away from my table group.

Available weekends and would play any AP except Carrion Crown, Rise of the Runelords or Iron Gods. Full disclosure: am GMing Giantslayer on PbP but would still enjoy playing it on a VTT.
