It's a collaborative setup between experienced PFS PbP GMs and people who are interested in learning how to start running games themselves! I'm not Redelia but the format I have seen used is one where the group runs and plays together in one of the quest series (Phantom Phenomena, Silverhex Chronicles, etc.) with each student taking a turn at running one of the individual parts for the rest of the group. Notes are compared, suggestions are made, and people can learn together - stuff like mapping, ways to handle initiative, ways to keep the action from slowing to a crawl, things like that :)

That's a pretty good explanation of GM school that GM Ladile has just provided.

GM school is a program that we run in Flaxseed Lodge where we try to teach new (or rather new) Play by Post GMs how to run games. It's a combination of questions to reflect on GMing and bit of practice as a GM in a setting where the players are mostly other students.

That's fantastic! Good on you folks!

Anyone running anything on Roll20 today?


Still learning how to use that site to GM with, but hopefully soon.

Great scenario. I'm sure fun will be had by all. Tough but fair.


Of course the GM gets a laugh at some point.


I have two 1L's that need The Confirmation(1 has done Wounded Wisp, the other freshly minted).

I also have a 2L Core looking for work.

Anything coming up soon?

People coming home from PaizoCon. I'm sure we'll get some games in recruitment coming up.


I have a table wrapping up. I'll run a Confirmation in a week's time. Will get a recruitment post up soon.

I'll be opening recruitment for a couple of early season core games sometime next week.

Time for the Chicken's June game:

This time Roving Dachshund presents: 7-05 School of Spirits (1-5)

Seven years ago, Pathfinders entered Absalom’s shattered Precipice Quarter in pursuit of a ruby ring but also rescued a strange survivor. She has since grown to adulthood and exhibited a rebellious spirit connected to the ruined school where the Pathfinders found her. The woman’s family has contacted the Society, hoping that its agents can escort her back to the haunted site and unravel the Drownyard’s relentless mysteries.

Characters who played 0-06: Black Waters are encouraged to play

Sing Up Here

I will keep the sign up open till Monday (4 June 2018) and the figure out tables. At most I will run two. If there are more than 12 players than I will do a lottery.

I run a fairly quick table and expect about one post per day during the week and maybe one for the whole weekend. Major updates are in the morning Eastern US times but other updates will happen though the day.

However there will be a slow down between June 13-17 during Origins, but I still plan on at least one GM post a day.

Should be starting mid week next week.

I just signed up - fyi, the link goes to a spreadsheet listing Penumbral Accords and a start date of Feb. 2018.

I am running CORE Destiny of the Sands Part 2, which will be leading into part 3 upon completion. Have one slot open after completion of part 1. Signup is here, discussion link is here once you sign up.

Planning to start tomorrow, no worries if you're a day or three late.

Grand Lodge

interested in your game Gustavef...played yoir Black Waters game

Grand Lodge

I'm interested, Gustavef. I played a different character in another game of yours.

Scarab Sages

Signed up this character for Destiny. Does it matter about not having played part 1?


Hi there everyone.

I've been running a couple of tables of the Emerald Spire Superdungeon in PbP. One of the tables has had some people drop out and is looking to recruit up to 3 more players to continue adventuring.

They're about to start the 2nd level of the spire which is PFS tier 1-3. Each level counts as a module length dungeon crawl and can reward 3XP and 4PP on completion. With some slow path at specific levels it's possible to complete all 16 dungeon levels and reach level 13 without any adventuring outside of the Superdungeon.

I'd prefer to have characters join who wish to continue delving further after this level, but i'm open to accepting characters who just want to do 1 level and then move on.

The group currently consists of:

Dwarf Fighter - Str based melee character with some knowledge skills.
Elf Lore Oracle - support spellcaster with very good knowledge skills.
Wayang Rogue (possibly re-building as Investigator) - Dex based melee with all the usual sneaky roguish skills.

They are all fresh level 2s after completing level 1 of the spire.

For more information on the Emerald Spire see the Product page here.

Anyone who is interested please feel free to come say hi and ask any questions in the Discussion Thread.

Thanks everyone!

Signed up for School of Spirits. I have multiple characters available.


I have played levels 1, 2, and 4 of Emerald Spire. I'd love to join you when you do level 3 and 5+.

Sovereign Court

Emerald Spire 1 is evergreen so I wouldn't mind another crack at that if it came back around.


I am running a table of standard Confirmation. The sign-up sheet is here

The plan is to start 1 week from today, but if the table fills up quickly and everyone is ready we could start earlier.

Thanks. I fixed both of those. The link was going to the right place. But I had the wrong text.

It is the problem of recycling the same sheet every time.

Is anyone interested in a GMing trade?

I'm looking to play #5-25 Vengeance at Sundered Crag, ideally high tier. I'd be happy to GM almost anything in return.

The Exchange

Our core group of rotating GMs/players has lost several of its number and we are looking to get some replacements. Head on over here for details!


What level are you.

Scarab Sages

For those with School of Spirits.

So looks like two tables to play at tier 4-5:

TABLE 1 The following please report:

Otha -- Egg Fu
Mindxing -- Cornelius "Cork" Dornbirk
grimdog73 -- Patros Therinor
Greenclaw -- TBD
Abraham Z. -- Bon Jon Bovi
Woodenman -- TBD


TABLE 2
The following please report

Shadow Bloodmoon -- Ser Willem Dargerion
Jhaeman Arrius -- Vext
caps -- Guntir Mithralfist
Noral -- Kioshi Katsu
Freindly Sauce -- TBD
OG3 -- Giovanni Stellaluce

Both table are 4-5 for so those with TBD plan accordingly.

Silver Crusade

Looking for a GM to lead a group of folks totally new to PbP:

I have been talking with some friends and attempting to lure them into PbP. I only recently started playing PbP with Outpost, but it got me hooked. My friends are all avid PFS players (and two of them are 4-star GMs) and I think they’d really enjoy the format. So, I’m putting out a request for a GM who would be willing to put up with a bunch of new folks.

Some details: there are 5 of us, so there’d be room for an experienced player as well, perhaps to help lead the way and model good practices; something that was great for me in my first games (Lady Ladile provided that model in one, Noral in the other, among other great players). One challenge is that it’s hard to find a scenario we can all play, but we’ve identified one that is playable and we all have PCs for: #9-14 Down the Verdant Path at the high tier.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions about our group, and thanks in advance.


Recruitment is open for PFS #5-04 The Stolen Heir. I’m running 2 tables. The link is below.

Link is me


Hey Calvert —

I’m sorry that I didn’t get back to your PM sooner. GM Lorenzo had expressed interest in possibly running for your group if you didn’t get someone else biting on this. 9-14 is a great scenario, and should be fun for your entire group!

Hmm

Silver Crusade

No worries, HMM! I figured you were probably with swamped from PaizoCon and such. Thanks!

We are at 8xp. A new member should have that much XP or a little more. All of these details and more are already at the link I shared.


Recruitment for First Steps—Part I: In Service to Lore

Tier 1 with 5 players (1st level only)
Estimated Start: June 6, 2018

Lottery sign up HERE, results drawn tomorrow evening. Please be check back and be ready to start June 6, 2018.

Grand Archive

If I'm not mistaken, first steps is retired and will give 0 credit if played. Is this not true any longer?


The first section is not, the other two ARE.

Calvert, I've already committed to participating in Redelia's GM School in a couple of weeks. I'm afraid that's the extent of my bandwidth (GMing 3 games), without shortchanging the players.

First steps was such a great trilogy, so much better than these more recent efforts at introducing the Society.

Hmm

Definitely true -parts 2 and 3 were both good scenarios, all three got you to 2nd level is a flash, too bad they got retired. Service to Lore still has it's charms, especially tabletop with virgin players.


On a table? With virgins? Sounds a bit--well, a bit illegal (or perhaps religious) in some places.

Liberty's Edge

I may be interested in playing In Service to the Lore - Part 1 with one of my fresh characters, should anyone be looking at running it. I have not GMed nor run it and from the blurb it looks really interesting. I love the PFS lore.
