Adventure Path Reign of Winter

Game Master Almonihah

this is for the Adventure path Reign of winter, this will start everyone at lvl 1. the character it self doesn't have to be registered with PFS but it can if you'd like, the character should be PFS legal. Some people have already expressed interest in this and they will have priority in signing up

I'm interested, if there's room. As my level 1's are currently booked or playing, I'd create a new first level...

I'm interested. I will make a new first level character. I can go with whatever role is needed but I'm inclined to go with a sorcerer.

Play what you want, this is for fun after all

Is this supposed to be campaign mode? It sounds rather in between campaign mode and regular.

I'm very interested. About a year ago I had a group playing Reign of Winter TPK on the very first battle. We tried to restart, but just couldn't get going again.

I am interested but I haven't made a PFS legal character before so maybe I could get some feedback from you are another player to make sure I haven't made a mistake?

Also the people who have expressed an interest if they've settled on a character it would be great to know the classes they had in mind, let us fill out roles they weren't gunning for or that would compliment them well kind of thing.

I am very happy and interested in joining up. I have several level 1's that are already in the system, so if my Bard isn't really needed, I am happy to change.

Just making sure, pfs legal but its not pfs right?

This is a campaign, I'm just starting it a bit slow to get everyone in, and let everyone have some fun as well

this is PFS, you just don't have to have it registered, and when you get the first chronicle sheet, I would need a number then of course

if everyone here is interested, then I can close recruitment, no more after Ammon

nvm then, pfs and me don't get along to well. have fun guys

I'd like to be included with this character.

I MIGHT be interested.

Thing is, I'd really like the opportunity to play with material BEYOND that which is PFS-legal (3rd-party, 3.5, maybe even homebrew), since I do so much of that.

Will you be sticking with PFS-legal stuff, or could it possibly become more open once we get in gear?

Ylosani, you would be the last if everyone here is interested, and I have no issue in running this with 7.

for now it will be PFS legal, and would like to keep it that way, I have not done an AP on line and maybe on the next one I will do homebrew or something else with that

Understood. I'll give it a miss, then.

Dosvedanya!

If the recruitment isn't closed, I am very interested in this game. Would love to work with others to build a cohesive party for this, PFS-legal or no.

If this is like the other APs I have played in, you really can't go straight through it as a PFS character, because it doesn't give enough XP. You do the approved part of the first volume, and that gives 3 XP, which is enough to get from level 1 to level 2. But then your character can't play in the second volume, because it usually requires you to be higher than level 2.

If we want to do the entire AP with a group of players, we would need to do campaign mode, where the characters we are playing as are not actual PFS characters. In campaign mode, we do the entire book, not just the approved portions. The GM can choose for themselves what the build rules are in campaign mode. You could still require PFS legal characters, the characters we played with just wouldn't be actual PFS characters.

Redelia, the sheets would be put to PFS characters, which is why I said for the build I am after PFS legal, but does not have to be registered till the end for the sheets for the number

I'd like to be considered. Unsure if there is space ^^

Actually, for campaign mode, the characters played do not need to be PFS legal. They can be whatever the GM declares. However, I get the impression that you want the characters to be built using PFS rules because that's what you are comfortable with.

comfortable, and more familiar with honestly, if that is an issue, please let me know

I'm fine with that. I would suggest that you say 'PFS legal as of now' just to make clear we don't need to rebuild if additional resources changes or anything like that.

understood, all builds will be PFS legal builds for this AP

Well, like I said, I have several PFS characters that are level 1, and am happy to play any, depending on what the group needs. I have as follows:

1. Yu Khan Bard, has done a single PFS senario, going with strong off-heal abilities.
2. Donna Pude, Human Fighter 1(2h). Stock
3. Brundie Hands, Human Wizard 1
4. Lomar Kenomic Alchemist 1
5. Rhea Currin the Whispy, Sylph Rogue 1
6. Rinka Chichi Wayang Ninja

Quasit is a rogue, but don't let that discourage anyone interested in running one, I just didn't put it up there with the name

Looks like you're full, but I'd run a Skald if a spot opens up.

Won't have a chance to build him until tonight.

Currently right now I have the group as follows

1 Quasit
2 Otha
3 MindXing
4 Redelia
5 Kevin o' Rourke 440
6 Yu Khan
7 Ylosani

Waiting list possible second table

8 Zin Z'arin
9 Sethran
10 Remnar
11 ??
12 ??

if there is enough people I will put Ylosani on a second table, and close all recruiting for the board, does this look right to everyone?

if you do open up a second table, I'm certainly in for that!

I just want to make sure everyone realizes that even if we are doing PFS build rules, actual PFS characters can't play in campaign mode. You play with a not-official-PFS character, and then you get chronicles that you can apply to a PFS character of your choice at the end. (Of course if you have a PFS character you love, there's no reason you can't make a copy of that character to be your character in an AP in campaign mode)

I was gonna ask how that works.

Hey, I'd love to step in with a "Copy" of this character Yuukyou the Harrow reader (I would apply it back to this character) if there is still room available at the second table!

I also have a Magical Child Vigilante I'd love to dust off and play, and vigilantes tend to be better suited for APs then for pathfinder missions anyways.

I'll try to roll up my character today/tonight. When are we starting with table 1?

Redelia, so are you saying that I make a PFS-legal character but then I apply the chronicles from this game (with that character) to a different PFS-registered character? Do I register the character for this game?

first table

1 Quasit
2 Otha
3 MindXing
4 Redelia
5 Kevin o' Rourke 440
6 Yu Khan

second table

7 Ylosani
8 Zin Z'arin
9 Sethran
10 Remnar
11 Nox Pembrook
12 Yuukyou

Recruiting will now close unless someone on the list drops out, please get the characters in as soon as possible, thank you

you do not register this character unless you want the chronicle sheets applied to the same character

if its confusing I apologize

for a start date, I am looking at Friday the 11th, no later then Mon the 14th for table one, table two if you are ready to go by then I will start it then otherwise I will start you Wed the 16th

sweet!

Table 1 if you have your character please feel free to introduce your character in the gameplay, otherwise go ahead and post in the discussion page

Another question. Any requirements on AP campaign traits? Anything else from the RoW Player's Guide that we should incorporate?

It is not necessary, I am not requiring it

Is there a discussion thread set up for Table 2?

Can we use PFS-legal options that would normally require a boon? I've previously built a Tiefling Investigator for Reign of Winter that is still a good concept. I can build something else, as well. The table should probably coordinate our character concepts; an AP will want to have a more cohesive and balanced party than PFS scenarios, which are more forgiving of party balance.

its not set up yet, I will be setting it up later tonight, and yes you can use the Tiefling Investigator

I will put a more clear list up in a short bit to make it less confusing, again I apologize

Allowed Races for RoW
if boon is needed, only need it if it is a registered character (IE playing a Tiefling in RoW but will be registered to a Sylph character, you do not need the boon for Tiefling, if playing a Tiefling and will be registered to a Tiefling character, then will need the boon (to keep it clear))

Starting gold will be 500 instead of 150.

Feats any that are allowed in PFS, do not need to be RoW feats

any questions feel free to PM me

Table 2, your discussion board is here, with the same guidelines

Reign of Winter

wow two tables full in only 5 hours. I think that is the fastest I have ever seen.

would have posted if I had known fast enough.

If someone bails I would be interested, but I would like ret-conned credit. (just joking on that BTW)

Wow, I can't believe how fast that filled up. I would like to nominate if someone pulls out (or if a 3rd table spawns :-))

Purely mechanics done, human fighter of Ulfen descent. I'm not 100% married to it but I haven't seen anyone else declare for a particular character aside from Zin's Tiefling Investigator so rather than dawdle I put together something I'd be happy with. He's pretty tanky but I could do up a Cleric or Oracle if no one is in the mood for a healer.

Putting myself up for the wait list, just in case.

I'd need to double check her for pfs legality, but I can't imagine needing to change much, and she is probably legal as is.

I created her specifically for this ap.

I'm interested. Will have to write a character up. Was thinking of a simple arcanist or summoner. If you have a drop out of course but looks like I am too late to the game.
