DM Beckett's "The Quest for Perfection" PFS PbP (Inactive)

Game Master Beckett

Opening up a recruitment for an upcoming PFS PbP game for the Quest for Perfection (parts 1-3). The Scenarios are 1st - 5th level, and I was planning on running them back to back. A single character would be best, but is not required.

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.

Be happy to join this.

I'm an experienced pathfinder player but I just joined the PFS today so this would be my 1st scenario.
Here is my 1st character:
Zane Allan
Male NG Human Magus, Level 1, Init +2, HP 13/13, Speed 30'
AC 17, Touch 13, Flat-footed 14, CMD 15, Fort +4, Ref +2, Will +2, CMB +2, Base Attack Bonus 0
Sawback Longsword +2 (1d8+3, 19-20 x2)
Cestus +2 (1d4(+2), 19-20 x2)
Leather Lamellar (+4 Armor, +2 Dex)
Abilities Str 14, Dex 14, Con 14, Int 16, Wis 10, Cha 10
Condition None

I would happily join this or your City of Strangers game.

I've played the Quest for Perfection 1, but if you find yourself needing or wanting someone for parts 2 and 3, I'd love to throw my hat in the ring.

I'll play as this character. Human (Ulfen) Fighter 1. I'll get a stat block posted when I get home from work.

I am going to DOT here, I have to get my char ready, I haven't played in PFS society yet, I have a char concept but I will have to get it Society ready. I can do that by EOD tonight.

Interested in this as well as your other campaign. I have my Inquisitor Gryne and a lvl 2 Sorcerer.

Torean -> Inquisitor 1
Zane -> Magus 1
Maaarv -> Alchy 4
Gunner -> Fighter 1
Krumthi -> ?

Maybe's (as in I'll get you in a game, but might be the other, maybe both, but I'd like to give other people a chance to play in one if they are not at all first)
Gryne
Thovar -> Cleric 1

Two free roducts will help.
the Guide to PFS Organize Play

and the Additional Resurces, with a link near the bottom of the paragraph for a PDF of it.

DM Beckett - I may excuse myself from these. It looks like you're getting a lot of Level 1's. I'm not really interested in starting up another character at this time, and I'm afraid mixing in a Level 4 with all Level 1's will make me a little overpowered for the scenarios.

Both of my current Level 1 characters are in other PbPs at the moment.

Also, like I had posted, I've already completed Part 1, but I'd love to bring in one of my Level 1 characters for parts 2 and 3 when they become available, if things work out.

Torean -> Inquisitor 1

Zane -> Magus 1
Maaarv -> Alchy 4
Gunner -> Fighter 1
Krumthi -> ?

Maybe's (as in I'll get you in a game, but might be the other, maybe both, but I'd like to give other people a chance to play in one if they are not at all first)
Gryne
Thovar -> Cleric 1

** spoiler omitted **
I don't mind new players at all, and I hope that I can give you both a good game and an intro into PF/PFS/PbP (whichever apply). PFS is mostly like any other PFS game, with a few basic changes in order to make it viable as a world-wide sort of home game. Things that make it possible for you to take your character to any other PFS game and be able to jump in. So certain things are just universally not allowed, house rules are kept to a minimum, and there are some assumptions.

A few of those are that you are a member of, work with/for, or are somehow a part of a small group called the Pathfinder Society, and have an interest in exploring <adventuring>, working with a team <no player vs player stuff>, and reporting back <taking a few notes, and doing things that would help the Pathfinder Society in general>.

Two free roducts will help.

it would be the the PFS.

Wyran Mesari, level 1 warpriest interested in this campaign if there is still room.

Interested if there is any space, level 1 Sorcerer.

Torean -> Inquisitor 1
Zane -> Magus 1
Gunner -> Fighter 1
Krumthi -> Rogue 1
*Gryne ->
Wyran -> Warpriest 1
Gaius -> Sorcerer 1

So I am definitely going to cut it off there. Sorry, no more applicants at this time.

@ Gryne. It sounds like the City of Strangers game is going to need to splint into two separate games. How would you feel about jumping into one of those so I can keep this one a 6 person party? Alternatively, I have a friend that is also still looking for players for The Devil We Know (parts 1-4).

Anyone that is interested can check that out.

Fine with me.
I'll hop over there.

Only if you are cool with that. Not trying to push you out.

looks good.

I am going to be starting up the game soon, and after that, probably tomorrow, I will edit campaign. Can I get everyone to post the follow info:

Player Name (or Nickname) - Character Name - PFS Number - Faction
and also a Day Job check if you have one (or let me know if you plan of getting one by the end).

One other thing, please designate some type of default action for your character in combat to take if for some reason w need to move on and you can not post. I will not use any of your resources (with the exception that someone else might immediately die if they are not used) without your say so, or it is a odd time where it could really mess somebody up for some reason. <It's never happened, but just wanted to make that clear>

Example:

DM Beckett - Yanos - PFS 5,274-17 - Taldor and Day Job (Heal): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11 If you need to move things along and waiting on me, I'll either ready an action to heal with my wand or Aid Another each round to boost someone's attack, whichever seems more wise for that encounter.

Also, remind me if you are new to PFS, to Pathfinder, or to Play by Post, so I can remember to explain things a bit better, or to offer tips that might help. Feel free to ask questions at any point, or for clarification on things before you act.

Krumthi 39263 Grand Lodge -Fence

Well, it would be -1 and I really do not have any craft or profession skills, the only skill like that is appraise

Fence, as in selling stolen goods. I do not know, I am just trying make a living here. LOL I am ready to play. so I will not have a day job roll that is no problem.

Player Name: Zane - Zane Allan - PFS # 120444-1 - Grand Lodge

I do not currently have a Day Job but would like to get one. The GtPSOP did not go into much detail about Day Jobs. I don't think I currently have any skills that would apply so I may have to wait until I level up to invest in one.

Default action: Two-Handed Attack with Longsword +2 (1d8+3, 19-20 x2)

I am new to PFS but not Pathfinder. I am not new to PbP but I am new to this site. I am used to RPG Crossing and Myth Weavers. Things are a bit different here.

Updated Paizo character sheet.

Enchanter Tim - Torean Spellbane - PFS#: 1142-4 - Grand Lodge

No day job roll

Torean's default action would be to attack the nearest enemy. He places a priority on going after enemy spellcasters, but not so much as to put himself and the group in a bad tactical position.

So others know, Torean is built as an anti-spell melee character. He's got some pretty massive saves vs. spells effects. You *should* be able to count on him to pass any spell save (non-spell saves are a different story), and then put his hammer into the mage's face.

blondebandit - Wyran Masari - PFS#96302-2 - Silver Crusade.

Wyran's default action is to attack with both scimitar and shield bash if able. He will always try and put himself in the way of enemies to protect the weak.

Actually I'm going to go ahead and move one point into Profession(Sailor) for a day job. Sailor: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

I'm going to go ahead and open up the Discussion thread (which will be a tab at the top of the page). Can I get everyone to in their first post there, put that info there. The point is (to try) to make it easier to report.

With GM permission, I would like to change to this character (Gaius).

Okay, that's fine

I've put my statblock on my character page. I think.

Yep, looks good.
