As my part of helping welcome all the people who came to Paizo's website due to the Humble Bundle, I'm considering running the Black Fang adventure that comes in the beginner box for 4-6 interested players who are brand new to Pathfinder, perhaps even brand new to tabletop RPGs. Let me know in this thread if you're interested in playing, and if you would want to play one of the pregens or to make your new character.
(Please don't read the adventure in the GM book before we play!)

We will be using the beginner box rules, not the core rulebook for this adventure, so the only reading I would suggest you do before we start is the Hero Handbook from the Beginner Box. It would also be good to work through the single player adventure that is in the Hero Handbook just to give you an idea of how combat works.

I would definitely be interested in doing this with you! I have never played a tabletop RPG and would love to have someone to help guide me through the first steps! Would this be an online run-through? Also, thank you so much for being so welcoming to all of us newcomers! I've never seen such a welcoming community for any game before and it makes me so excited that I did in fact buy this bundle! As soon as I can download them, I'll be sure to read the hero guidebook and go through the beginning adventure in the beginner box.
I would like to make my own character (although I'll probably use a pregen for the beginning adventure in the book so that I can become a little more familiar with the rules before I go creating a character haha) Would you be willing to give some pointers on character creation?

We will play right here on Paizo's forums. We will use a map that is on Google slides, where you will just move your token to where you want to go. It's OK if this doesn't make sense right now, I'll walk you through everything. All you need is your web browser, and your login to Paizo's website. Games here tend to go very slowly, but I think that's actually a plus for a new player, it gives you time to think and time to look things up.

Thanks! I will do so asap. I am so excited!

Hello there, I am in a similar position to the others above, I have no experience of tabletop RPGs but have been interested for a while with no idea where to begin. The humble bundle provided the perfect shove in the right direction. I would love to join your game if you'll have me.
I've had a read through the Hero's handbook and would like to give creating my own character a go.

OK, that looks like 5 players, which is a good size. The next step is that I need you to all post in the gameplay and discussion threads for our campaign. You should find those just above my first post at the top of this thread. I'll give you directions about what to do next in the discussion thread after you post.

MCCL, the time commitment is just a few minutes a day almost every day once we get started. Character building takes a lot more time, though.
I have a full group for right now, but if anyone drops out, I will certainly take you, and if others also express interest, I will split my group and help you guys find another GM for the other group.

I am definitely interested, do you think you could run the campaign with 7 players? I played a little pathfinder a couple years ago, and I am very excited to start playing again.
GM Redelia,I have been accepted into another campaign, so I formally take back my request to join your party. I appreciate the chance to join though.

Yet another interested semi-newbie (played some VtM), I have a character made for PFS but the Roll20 group I'm part of has gone silent.
MuckyPup, Durdrik, if you or any others are reading this thread are interested, I'll be running a one-shot introduction with the Beginner's Box tomorrow (3/4/16). There's more info here..
Thanks for the inspiration, Redelia!

I am looking to get into pathfinder as well. I have played D&D, but never pathfinder. I am still looking through the rulebooks as we speak, having finished with the core book already.
I do have limitations to me availability though. I am available Wednesday after 6pm EST, and Thursday and Saturday after 4pm EST. If you can find a GM and/or players that can fit me in, I'd love to join.

I'm posting interest for a second group as well. Appreciate you reaching out to the newbies OP.
I have played D&D 3.5 a bit, 4e a decent amount and 5e once. I have also played Shadowrun, Star Wars Saga edition, Gamma World and Dark heresy. I have not played Pathfinder before and so I would love to start off with a group of players in the same boat (usually I just jump into the deep end with a new system). I have only been playing tabletops for a few years and I have been in a few failed PBP games. So I have some experience, but still a newb.

Hello everyone,
I would be happy to run another group through the Beginner Box adventure. I'm about to leave the office, and will have the new recruitment thread up tonight or tomorrow.
Important!
This will be a Play-By-Post game. Meaning that it will be conducted here on the paizo forum via messageboard posts. I will explain more of what this means in the recruitment thread.
Also, we will be using the simplified rules presented in the Beginner Box. If you are feeling a bit overwhelmed by everything, I would highly recommend using one of the pregenerated characters presented in the beginner box.
That being said, hello and welcome!

I'd be interested as well, depending on the timing. I really can't play til after 8:30 on weekdays and probably not every day. I understand if that doesn't work, I wouldn't want to make the game a slog for everyone else that's playing.
I've never played a tabletop before though I've been interested for years.

Hello!
I just got into Pathfinder when the humble bundle was released. I've been playing TTRPGs for about 15 years but I grew up in an exclusively White Wolf household lol The transition to Pathfinder has been difficult for me because it's like learning a new language, but I really want to DM a campaign for some friends so I need experience! I would love to be a part of this if you are still considering running it a second time!
I'm willing to play just about any class the group needs, I'm really just in it to familiarize myself with the system and have a good time.

Sorry to hijack the thread but I just wanted to let people know who might be watching this thread I have started my own beginner box recruitment thread here. As of when this is posted I have no applicants so there are 6 or possibly 12 seats available.
