Yes, somebody else is going to be running the ever-popular Rise of the Runelords.
A word of caution - this is going to be my first experience as a Game Master.
Still interested? Then I'll move on.
Character Creation Rules
---
1.) 18 point buy. Probably a little weird, but there you have it.
2.) One campaign trait from the RotRL AE Player's Guide, and one other trait of your choosing.
3.) If you want to play an exotic race, ask first. But no drow.
4.) If you want to play a summoner, please use the Unchained Summoner. No summoner archetypes, and no gunslingers.
5.) Your available gold will be the average for your class.
6.) 1st-level, max HP.
7.) Good or Neutral alignments.
---
An important note about maps. I will be using maps differently. They will be something like this -
|A1|A2|A3|
|B1|B2|B3|
|C1|C2|C3|
Your PC's position would be indicated by stating which square you are in. Objects in the environment and enemies will be listed by myself.
If you have any questions or criticism, please be polite. I'll be recruiting until August 16th.
Dot
New to PbP. If that will be too much, since you are new to GMing. I understand if you don't want the extra difficulty. If this is ok I will post a character in a day or two.

I'm interested. Good luck to you; I've tried GMing this AP before, and utterly shot myself in the foot. But that was before I read Painlord's Guide to PbP GMing. I heartily recommend it.
Count me in I'll be making an investigator. Been waiting to do Runelords!
Sure, I'm interested in this. I'll post up a character if it gets more interest.
Dotting for interest
Only six people interested since I posted this last night? I'm feeling a little inadequate.
Sorry, that was me, the GM.

Hang in there, there is plenty of time.
ranger with eventually cross classing with sorcerer
i'll create a background and new alias for him tomorrow.
Nope, no PFS credit, sorry.
How do you feel about android as a race?
Would you allow a Kobold?

"Oh, but Azule, darling, I am alas a rogue anticipating levels in sorcerer and, eventually, arcane trickster! Whatever shall we do?"
Are unchained monks okay? I've had an interest in checking one out, but it's not a concept I'm dedicated to.
My other thought is a changeling oracle of waves, trying to resist the call of the ocean that her sea hag mother is consistently putting out. If changelings are also a no-no, I've got plenty of backups.
I am very interested as I have also been wanting to play through runelords. That being said I would like to submit a gnome Heavens Oracle. Ill have some crunch up in a bit.
Ranged fightery sort checking in to the recruitment. This is the Nine's entry by the way, just half to doublecheck the starting gear and wealth.!
Everything should be good to go!
He was just finishing up things at the stable. The festival was soon and the little bit of added coin would indeed be worth the sweat and grime of mucking the stables after brushing the horses. Again Corrin was glad that ol' Daviren Hosk had good memories of his father. Between the man's stories (told with and between tales of goblin genocide)and his mother's journal it was all he knew of the man.
He left the stables finally, a light sweat coating his skin as he took off his shirt before he head torwards the small home he shared with a few fellows who worked the mill. It was a warm enough night out but the cool air certainly felt good as he made his way home. when he noticed that dark haired beauty that worked down at the Pixie's Kitten and he blushed. He had indeed seen her before, at the market and had even gone so far as to inquire her name. Riessa was as pretty as her name.
"Calm down Corrin, she's a working girl, to please a lass like her you need coin, and plenty of it. He thought to himself as he fumbled with his key to the door. He glanced over and froze when he realized she was indeed watching him. Crimson flaired along his fair skin and he darted indoors breathing hard.
Working the mill's during the day and Mucking stalls at night had left him tired but he had promised his coworkers from the mill that he was going to meet them that night for one of the boy's birthday's It was just a matter of changing out of the dirty clothing now. He looked at the gear he barely wore now, except of course when the town militia was called in stacked up in the corner.
Hero's... ladies like hero's in the stories. Maybe tomorrow evening he would ask ol' Daviren a little more about goblin hunting. Perhaps he could make a bigger name for himself, earn coins from such efforts and then he could...He shook those thoughts away, Plenty of time to dream of being a hero and getting the maidens to swoon tomorrow. He was late as it is.
How do you feel about android as a race?
Android would be more suited to an Iron Gods campaign, but I'll probably allow that if you have a good enough backstory.
Would you allow a Kobold?
Sure.

An unchained monk is okay, if you prefer it. The only class that has to use unchained rules is the summoner. And changelings are one of my favorite races!

Thank you for being the first to submit a character. You definitely might be a player if I can get this game going.

"We shall slay our enemies from the shadows. With silent steel and thunderous words. Our friends will rest peacefully in the light. Knowing death protects them from the shadows. "
I've got a concept that I'd be hilariously interested in trying, but I'll have to wait and see if I can take it on. Count me as interested, though!
Here is my submission, he should be the next post. Col Averton, Human Investigator (went human not android)
Here is the crunch or close enough. I am still working on his background and personality. I will let you know when I iron out the details.
Another question - do you want the Campaign traits from the original RotRL Player's Guide, or the re-release?

Anniversary Edition.
How many players/PCs will you take?
HP after first level?
Added a bit of his background I got some of the the details off the Wiki site if there are glaring inaccuracies please let me know. Still a work in progress.
Definitely interested. I've got a Magus in the works. I'll be back in a couple days with a character.
Glad to hear it :) Cant wait to see some of the other entrants! This is one of my favorite parts, to see all the other peoples ideas and meet new people.
Background's complete. It contains a brief physical description, and should give insight into Melyanna's personality, but I can expand didactically on both if you think it's necessary, Fate.

Born in the Kyonin outpost, Crying Leaf. I was trained to be a warden of the Mierani forest. My clan is tasked with keeping the Drow contained and elven secrets safe.
I was on sentry duty. Near Celwynvian, when a Drow raiding party. Snuck by my position using magic. They made it into the forest. Where they killed a unicorn. I carry a braid of the unicorn mane ,as a badge of shame, woven into my hair.
Since I was a new recruit. The elders took pity on me. They reassigned me. To scouting the human lands. Looking for signs of the Drow, or other aberrations. Coming to the surface from below.
Having heard of a devil in the human settlement of Sandpoint. I had started my investigations there.

Gonna have to drop out with this character, got invited back to the game I was forced to drop out of. I still want to play, so I'll make a different character for it if that's alright.
I'm insterested, will posting up a druid in a little bit.
EDIT: And by Druid, I might actually mean Hunter. We'll see how it all falls into place.
Now that I'm officially awake and have started my day -
Deko, that's cool, I look forward to the next character you submit.
How do you feel about goblins as player characters?
A goblin PC would be amusing.
How about Young Character with PFS' "screw ability score adjustments from age categories"?
Edit: come to think of it, Unchained background skills?
I will drop this Kobold Investigator here. I will get around to adding a backstory later.
That's my goblin. Gonna work on a good background for him. Will post when I get it finished. Let me know what you think of the crunch.
