I'll be running The Pallid Plague this coming Thursday at noon pacific time. I will be using Mumble for voice and Maptool for the VTT. If you want to play, post here your character, class and level. Please also E-mail me ([e-mail]) with your PFS #, faction. I would also like to see a character sheet and your previous chronicles, if that's at all possible.

I will email the players in the game the location of the VTT and voice servers on Thursday morning before the game starts.

I will be using Maptool 1.3.b90-beta. This works with Java 7. You can download Maptool here:

If you're on Windows, you might also want to download the launcher here:

Hi Rob,

Will you be accepting new players to this game? I have played a couple of sessions as GM but never played as a PC or online before.

[rknop]

Absolutely. What character will you bring?

I recommend downloading and running Maptool before Thursday. It's not hard to use, but occasionally it's fiddly to get going the first time.

Excellent! I've got an elven rogue in mind. How should I determine ability scores and starting gold? Is there a certain character sheet that I should use to send you the character?

I'll try maptool now...

You'll want to make sure to download the PFS Guide to Organized Play. Read the 2-page introduction, and 4-page chapter on character creation. I also recommend reading chapters 3-5 (chapter 4 tells you about the factions; you'll pick one for your character), but that's less essential to get started.

Chapter 2 should ideally answer all your questions; it does include ability scores and starting gold. If you still have some, feel free to ask.

Here's the current list for the game:

1. (dotto) -- ??, Sorcerer/1
2. (DE 719) -- ??, Elven Rogue/1

It would be nice to get one more person (since Season 1 scenarios were written assuming 4 PCs), and there's room for 3 more. I encourage you to give Maptool a try, even if it's not what you're used to. It's not that hard to get running, has some nice features, and will be further developed in the form of Mote.
