BM Beckett's "The City of Strangers" PFS PbP (Inactive)

Game Master Beckett

Opening up a recruitment for an upcoming PFS PbP game for the City of Strangers (parts 1-2). The Scenarios are 1st - 7th level, and I was planning on running them back to back. A single character would be best, but is not required. Right now, I am looking for 2-3 additional players.

I am looking for daily posting, give or take, and understand that the weekends and holidays tend to be slower.

I will be utilizing Google Docs for maps (limited interactive and free) and the Paizo Boards for the game play.

I prefer if players can arrange most of their common stats in the "Class and Level" and "Race" section of their character sheet, but not required, and try to utilize a common posting style:

Bold for in character dialogue
Italics for thoughts, actions, writing, and distinction in a post. <I will also use this for descriptions and narration.>
Blue for Out of Character comments, questions, or the like.

Old Faction Missions will be available upon request, for fun.

I understand that life happens, so if you know something is coming up that might mean you can't post for a bit, just let me know, and preferably with some basic instructions for me (or someone) to run your character as needed.

Feel free to ask questions if needed.

Part of this will be dependent on the players, but I am hoping for each scenario to be completed in approx. 1-2 months.

I'd love to play. I can play a number of 1st level characters in this. I can adjust to party needs somewhat since I have a rogue, a ninja, a zen archer monk, a cleric, and a barbarian.

Oh, I do have a 2nd level Magus I'm trying to figure out as well.

I have a lvl 7 manuever master and mentioned playing on your other thread... also have the buddy playing lvl 7 barbarian...i will have him ready for game play soon

Hi Beckett! Would Thovar be welcome on this little adventure?

I have Gryne here or a lvl 2 Sorcerer. did you fill your spots yet? I'm interested in your other campaign as well if this is full.
Thanks.

It does not look like it.

Xiaobo -> Monk 7
??? -> 7th
Rychyrich -> 1st or 2nd ?
Thovar -> Cleric 1
Gryne -> Sorcerer 2 possibly other game
Shel -> Ranger/Rogue 4

wasn't sure if wanted in this game or the others
EnchanterTim -> ?

Can I get everyone to post as their character(s) they are thinking about playing.

RyckyRych here, we'll go with the 2nd level Magus. I gotta learn to play him sometime.

I was just accepted in another game so I'll have to bow out of this one. Next time!

@ RyckyRych - No worries.

@ Thovar - Same, no worries. Good luck with the game. :)

I'm Torean in the other game, Beckett. As much as I'd love to play in both (3 if you count Frozen Fingers), I'm happy to give others a chance. Besides, I'd be bringing a level 1, so hopefully you can get a higher level to keep the tier higher.

I submit Jake Hargrove for consideration, Male Human Two Handed Fighter/3.

I'm really interested in playing in a long term pbp. i have a level one character that would be really interesting to see in action.

DOLGRIN the halfing barbarian(titan mauler archtype)
this little rage machine prefers fighting larger foes and fills the role of tank or dps. He has alot of character and will be a ggreat boon to any group. PICK ME PLEASE!

Hi DM Beckett. If you have room for a 1st lvl character I would like to apply this witch. Will finish his profile tonight.

I realize there is probably plenty as it is, but all the same I'd like to submit Gaius Pellandir, lvl 1 Sorcerer.

Might have to just run a second game of this.

We will see ok.

Sounds good to me. Let me know how you feel about it.

Ok, so if we do go with two games, here is what I am thinking so far. I am also going to cut off recruitment for the time being at this point.

Mid/High Tier Game
Xiaobo -> Monk 7
??? -> 7th
Shel -> Ranger/Rogue 4
Jake -> Fighter 3

-------------------------

Lower Tier Game
Maldoc -> Magus 2
Thovar -> Cleric 1
Verial -> Witch 1
Lord Pizzmic -> Barbarian 1

Unsure where yet
Gryne -> Sorcerer 2 Just need to know which you want to play in more. Might be able to do both, but for now lets assume one or the other. If this one, may go to either tier, not sure yet.

Gaius -> Sorcerer 1 Just need to know which you want to play in more. Might be able to do both, but for now lets assume one or the other. If this one, will be Low Tier.

Also, everyone keep in mind that a friend is also recruiting for The Devil We Know parts 1-4. If you are interested, especially the low level characters, check it out.

The city of strangers scenario sounds more interesting to me, but only slightly. I'm happy to play in either game!

Ok, I'll slot you for this one for now, and see what the other one looks like in a few days.

I'm already in a Devil game but thanks for the heads up. I'm fine playing low-tier in this one and I could even bring a level 1 instead if its better for overall flavor. I do have a Zen Archer that is 1.2 at the moment if we need some range.

If we need more front-line fighter types or a skill-monkey I could bring a different character too! It's level 1 so that shouldn't be very hard to do.

The Low Tier game looks pretty good as is, but you can switch up if you want. I'm a little more concerned with the higher Tier lacking spellcasting/healing, but that is one of those things with organized play.

The only thing I was worried about was a lack of trap-finding types. I might make up a Rogue for great stabbing justice.

Yeah, I'll try the Magus then. After both of these he'll be level 3 and get his black blade.

Gaius here. I'd like to use this kindly Dhampir Rogue to service the party in any shady deals, backstabbing, treachery and prevent the occasional swinging log from taking their heads off, with thy consent.

I agree that healing could be a problem in the higher tier. We can crack on, though. :-)

Becket-
I have Gryne continuing on the Adventure Path of his previous campaign. This will allow for you to add another player.

I have my lvl 2 Sorcerer I'd like to play. If he fits, great, if not I'll find a spot for him. It's no big deal to me. I am easy-going.

Mid/High Tier Game <probably 3-4> Can accept 1-2 more, hopefully a 3rd+ level arcane or divine character
Xiaobo -> Monk 7
??? -> 7
Shel -> Ranger/Rogue 4
Jake -> Fighter 3

-------------------------

Lower Tier Game <1-2> Recruitment closed
Maldoc -> Magus 2
Thovar -> Cleric 1
Verial -> Witch 1
Lord Pizzmic -> Barbarian 1
"Gaius" -> Rogue 1 (I currently have your Sorcerer slotted for QfP, let me know if you want to switch)
"Gryne" -> Sorcerer 2 (may bump you to higher tier)

I'll switch to my Rogue if that is ok. Just to give our party a bit more utility since we have a few spellcasters already.

I am going to be deactivating this thread, (probably tomorrow). I did not expect to run two separate games, but I have created a new thread for each, and sent out link to everyone. If I somehow missed you, PM me and I will take care of that.
