Alright yet another game by the new guy. This one one also homebrew.
However this time it's high level and high stakes.
Your going to start at lv 15 and if you fail golarion will burn and all life will be extinguished.
Ready for it? It's not going to be easy and some of you will most likely die.
It's gonna be fast paced since in game time will not be your ally. Your gonna be racing againts the clock to save the world so I'm looking for active players who can post at least once a day.
You pick two traits and you start with 240 000 gold.
You may not spend more than 33% of your starting gold on a single item.
First come first serve. Player limit is 6. No more.
32 point buy for stats.
Sounds great. I like a bit of real peril in my games. :)
Count me in.
What will the character creation method and restrictions be?
my only restriction is that you need to check with me before using any 3rd party stuff
Hey Dire Merc, its Stonz here :)
I love them high level campaigns and would be intrested in this ^-^
Let me see what I can come up with :)
ME ME ME ME ME!
This sounds like a more combat based campaign so I will probably make a Synthesist/Paladin
Lol, I am seeing a trend in the types of guys that like the high level games :D
We should form a group or something, pm eachother every time one of us finds a new one XP
Im interested...Pick me :)
Now what to make what to make....
GM, how would you feel about my using the 3rd-party Psionics hosted on D20pfsrd?
I'm thinkin' o'buildin' a psionic archer.
So you're good with gunslinger? Actually even better, Inquisitor with the Blackpowder Inquisition.
32pb? Fast paced game-play? Have to go go go?
I think I will play an orc viking :)
Now that I got the basic idea time to start building him up: D
I'll go with arcane caster of some sort (Valliss Here)
I'm gonna go for a control Druid then.
Full now? Blah
If someone backs out I plan to play a Internal Curgion Vivisectionist alchemist
psionic archer is fine.
all very good I look forward to seeing some fleshed out characters.
Changed my mind; how would you feel about my being a Dread? It's essentially a fear-specializing caster. Could lead to some fun rp possibilities.
Give me a message if anyone backs out, okay Dire? I'm going to have my character sheet all ready preemptively made if you ever need me.
Well here is some partial crunch for Joseph Bonkers character (Name Pending)
I had a lot more then piazo ate it, strangely it only ate half of it, not all of it. Shrug.
Will keep working at it ^-^
Will do Kaira
also is dread a class or archtype? I havent heard of it.

It's a psionic class.
ah ok I haven't actually read the psinoic book yet go ahead ad make it and I'll look into it.
Here's the current sheet. Everything except equipment, skillpoints and traits is done.
The class has turned out interesting; a sort of fear-focused de-buffer who can work at range with powers (spells) or up-close with natural attacks and terrors. Class abilities also should be much fun.
I'll start work on name, background and personality. Planning for an evil character; the impending destruction of Golarion should bring out of the woodwork all sorts of distasteful fellows who nonetheless have no interest in seeing this world which gives them so much evil pleasure be blown up. Subtle evil, though, not Xykon evil.
Lol, I am seeing a trend in the types of guys that like the high level games :D
We should form a group or something, pm eachother every time one of us finds a new one XP
Indeed, maybe we should.
I think I will try a psionic class if they are allowed I have never used one before and it will be cool to see what they do.
If you'll permit the Leadership feat, I might get a Mystic Theurge cohort to try out the new SLA ruling. Should be able to provide a great deal of party support; buffing and healing.
I'm ok with the leadership feat however I want to know the in-game reason you have it, why these people follow-you, what their role is. Were do they stay? ect...Not just I took leadership so I could have the highest level cohort cast buffs on me.
Also from everyone I'd like a short background detailing what he or she has been doing, at 15th you've done many great things and are probably known as great heroes or villains in entire countries of not most of the world.
Also were in the world does your character make his home?
Of course, I understand completely. Planning on working Leadership in very closely with background/etc.
One final question; as a dread, some key class features activate only when there is a person within 30ft who is shaken/panicked/etc. I was considering keeping either a pet or a level 1 follower around in a semi-perpetual state of terror. Something very in-character for an evil fellow, but I wanted to check with you first if it was permissible.
As a note while I will be allowing evil alignments I want to keep direct conflict between pc's to a minimum please keep that in mind.
As such Lawful evil would be the preferred alignment if you must be evil.
Also your character sheet doesn't show your alignment.
I usually indicate alignment with a small symbol; I'll add it once I work out personality/background.
There still a spot open here? If so whats still needed? Tank, Skills, Healer, Arcane?
Currently full with one waiting for a spot. Sorry Pox.
All good.. Have fun! Let me know if spot opens please..
Name: Elara Korechild
Race: Female Elan
Class: Dread (Fear in the Flesh)
Alignment: Neutral Evil (though I could write her to be more lawful if you feel it is necessary)
This event- her ascension- was coupled with the descent of Elara's mother into paranoia and phobia. Anxiety grew into a constant fear of another goblin attack, of running out of money leading to her starving, to ground-wolves eating her in the night. Not knowing why she felt so different and saw things so different, Elara began a lifelong obsession with fear. She watched, fascinated, as her mother recoiled from something she had never felt, and eventually began to experiment with how she could manipulate her mother with fear; casting shadows in the wall, telling her tales, making sounds in the night. The techniques she learnt with her mother she began to apply outside the house as she took her place in the community- scaring and manipulating admirers, enemies, those who could give her goods of advancement. At this point, Elara's psionic powers began to develop- she found herself with abilities beyond any of those around her (dread powers).
The next key moment in her life came when a paladin arrived in town to investigate the rumors and happenings caused by Elara- strange fights between people not usually violent, others being turned suddenly and mysteriously insane, disappearances. The paladin, overconfident and fearless, suspected some dark cult was at work. Irritated at his arrival in her town, Elara set to work manipulating the townspeople into turning on the paladin, raising angry murmurs whenever he went by as she became friends with the paladin. As the first stirrings of an angry mob started outside the paladin's house, Elara watched, fascinated, as her presence drove the paladin to fear, watching someone so unaccustomed to the emotion destroy himself entirely when it arose for the first time in so long (Dread ability to bypass immunity to fear). When she raised her hand and grew claws of shadow and sliced out his throat, he seemed almost grateful (Fear in the Flesh archetype ability).
That event firstly convinced Elara that she was special, and something bigger and more important than those around her. It also made her conclude that this place was too small and too limiting for one of her potential. Packing up her belongings- and not forgetting to kill her mother- Elara took a ship and headed to Geb, a land where undead are rife and accepted. Unsurprisingly, a young woman with the ability to inspire fear in the fearless did very well in a land where so many possessed a supernatural immunity to fear so quickly stripped away (undead fear/mind-effecting immunity). In Geb, Elara learnt of the Elan and her birthright, and practiced her arts and powers.
Her life for the next ten years are known to none but very few, and then only in fragments and flickers. Currently, Elara is on holiday from her normal political and power machinations. In a small town in Varisia she has begun her own cult centered around the worship of the god of fear, Kore (her own invention, naturally) and his prophet, Elara. She alternates between seeing the sights of Varisia, admiring architecture both political, social and physical and in whipping up the cult into a frenzy. Idly enjoying all the commotion caused by her presence, she is debating to herself whether to order all the cultists to kill themselves or whether to have them massacre their fellow townspeople and THEN kill themselves.
In any case, when the call to save the entire world went out, Elara answered; this would is far too interesting for her.
neutral evil is fine.
Hello DireMerc, I saw above that you are currently full with already two waiting for a spot? I'd like to be the third one waiting if that is ok ;)
Thank you.
I'm going to drop out due to time restraints, sorry.
Well lucky enough I have backups.
As a note I only have two characters so far out of six so were not quite ready yet. but I understand that there is a bit of thought required for higher level characters.
I going to go with Wizard(Conjuration) 9/Diabolist 6. Finishing Working him and his imp up in Hero labs. Sorry was a very long day at work
Well I would be one of the two who isn't finished being built up yet but I got a good few hours here in the next bit, I'll see how much I can get done :)
If you want to be REAL badass you would use your gun in melee and throw your fist! Throwing AOMF and all that ,')
Race: Half-Elf (drow alternate trait)
Class: Cleric of Asmodeus 2/Sorcerer (Empyreal) 1/Mystic Theurge 10
Alignment: LE
Backstory:
Some time ago, a drow named Dizz't was born in the underground cities of his kind who felt and saw things very differently than others of his blood. Where they saw strength and power as being the only things determining worth he felt that compassion and empathy could also be key drivers for civilization. These revolutionary feelings were exacerbated by reading forbidden tomes of lore taken from captured adventurers from the world above. Inspired, Dizz't decided to escape from the city of his birth and learn in the air above what other paths the drow could chart. Becoming an adventurer, his travels climaxed in a great battle where he saved a powerful archon of Iomedae and many innocents from certain death. In gratitude for this, the archon blessed Dizz't, granting his very blood some of the power of the gods. His head swimming with new understanding, and bolstered by all he had seen and experience, Dizz't returned to his home city to start a family, and to preach the values and virtues of Iomedae and the other 'good' causes from the world above.
The other Drow houses decided to have none of this and slew him in the night for his impertinence.
Curious about his power, they decided to allow his son- Zz'tal- to live, though as the lowest of all drow due to his father's crimes. Unlike Dizz't, Zz'tal took to the drow way of life immediately, and from a young age showed a great cunning which he used to manipulate his way to safety and some degree of prosperity. Shortly after becoming an adult, Zz'tal followed his father's footsteps and left the city; not because he disliked its systems and beliefs, simply that being marked by his father's name severely curtailed the heights he could rise to.
Now above-world in Cheliax, Zz'tal has become a worshiper of Asmodeus, seeing much in his teachings and beliefs to emulate. Zz'tal, however, faces a constant inward struggle against his blood, which inclines him towards good act and robs him of the purity of evil needed to attain and hold onto power in the Asmodean church. For that reason he has currently decided to serve Elara, seeing in her a purity of evil and selfishness that he must emulate if he is to walk the path he wishes to walk.
Elara always appreciates a powerful servant and has accepted Zz'tal's service. Due to it being 'service', she on occasion tends to treat him as a common, lesser servant. Though slow to complain, Zz'tal is very willing to eventually remind her that he is a powerful cleric of Asmodeus and something very close to an equal.
Zz'tal wears a mask when above-ground to hide his drow features, and also to respect his culture. To gain more power he has learned the arts of Varisian tattooed sorcery, and from it gained a beautiful midnight-black raven which returns to ink driven deep into the skin of his right arm. Zz'tal is a quiet and serious man who respects power and its ability to control others.
We're saving the world, but who says only heroes are interested in doing so? Villains like this world just as much and would rather not see it destroyed. No puppies will be kicked though, I promise; party unity is important.
i would like to throw my name in the waiting list for this game.
I have plenty of ideas so whoever backs out i can probably make a character that can fill in whatever gaps are left by them.
The second is Elara's cohort, if that's who you mean.
EDIT: I've never used Leadership before, I have a few questions.
-Do I generate my cohort's stats with the same method as for Elara? 32pb? Or do I follow the NPC table here?
-Does my cohort's gold come out of Elara's pool or is it determined by the table here?
I'm not evil...LN...I have most of my character done. I need to finish Minion and pick my spells. I will get this tomorrow. Any Campaign Info We could have, might help me pick my spells

leadership feat is pretty clear you use for generating their wealth and scores
So your cohort at max would get 9k for weapons, 8k for protection, 7k for magic, 2.5k consumables, 0.5k in reg gear.
stats are preset, feats are pre-set, etc etc.
