So something a slight bit troubling has occurred. Some folks and I were recruited into a Wrath of the Righteous campaign, but due to various dropouts, we appear to have lost the ability to continue. Towards the end, I was both running and playing. I'm content with either role, but we'd like to try and reboot this because we're very interested in playing this campaign through to the end.
With that in mind, I'm going to post a recruitment for this to try and drum up some support for a group that will help make this work. Applications need the following:
Crunch
Abilities: 15 Point Buy
HP: Max at level 1, roll or average every level after
Class: Any Paizo (gunslingers not recommended, but accepted; see Player's Guide)
Race: Core Races and Featured Races of 15 RP or less. Other races of similar power will be considered upon request.
Alignment: This campaign has high benefits for “good” aligned characters, so anything not good will require a good reason. CE is right out, NE is unlikely, LE and CN can be justified.
Traits: 2, one of which must be from the Player’s guide. Each trait ties in with a Mythic Path.
Mythic Path: Will not come into effect until book 2. However as it would benefit the party that each character was a different Mythic Path, you may want to choose a Path in your planning before you choosing a class and working backwards.
Backstory
A paragraph explaining a bit about how your character came to be in Mendev, and came to join the 4th Crusade, where applicable. More is accepted, less is not preferred. Motivations, goals, etc. are encouraged but not required. Helps me to personalize things in the campaign to the characters.
Posting
I prefer that you be able to check in once per day, even if you don't post that day. I'll be checking in that much. Missing a day once in a while happens, but try to avoid it where possible. If you know you'll be out for a day, let us know and pre-post the kind of things your character might do given the knowledge you have. A Tactics section in a character statblock helps with such.
I'll leave this open until 7PM PST Monday February 10 for recruitment. The current player (assuming that I run) is a Human Paladin. We would be starting over from the beginning, and we haven't delved too deep into the adventure yet.
With that, let's see some options for new characters. If you're interested in GM-ing, please send me a PM.

This profile is an example of how one might format the character profiles. No need to create one before being accepted, but please use this as a guide in submitting a character. This is also my character submission in the event that another GM wants to try to run this.
The current player (not including myself) is: Weyland Piper, Human Paladin (Shining Knight) of Iomedae

Interested in joining this game. Here is my submission, a crusader cleric of Iomedae. If I am missing anything, or need to alter the character just tell me and I will get right on it :-)

--------------------
Born in the kingdom of Brevoy, Ozgo's parents were devout Iomedaeans. His mother held the position of sword knight of the third circle, while his father was in the forth circle. From a young age he was part of the church and when he was old enough he joined the clergy. For several years he studied in the small temple at Port Ice, watching as members took ship to help fight the evil of the worldwound from Mendev. When his initiate training was finished, he too boarded the ship that would take him to the port-city of Egede. His parents saw him off at the docks, proud of their son's accomplishments.
He remained in Egede for a few years, finally entering the 5th circle of the clergy. Once he had achieved this level of experience, he was shipped off to Kenabres for final training and to be stationed at the temple there. Other than a run-in with a small band of goblins as they travelled the edge of the Estrovian Forest, his time in Mendev has been quiet. He arrived at Kenabres just a few days ago, and is awaiting his first posting.
Appearance
Ozgo is a large, well muscled man in his early 20's. His coal-black hair is cut short and his face is clean-shaven. He keeps his clerical robes spotless, and is often seen shining the silver holy symbol his parents gave him before he left home.
Personality
Ozgo like to help people and be helpful. His devotion to the goddess is absolute, and he can be critical of those who do not worship The Inheritor. Because of this he sometimes seems aloof, but once he makes you his friend, he will do all in his power to ensure you are safe and protected.

Yes, the variant versions of Tieflings and Aasimar are on the table, as are alternate racial features from the ARG. However, with both Aasimar and Tieflings, if you want to replace your spell-like ability with something from the d100 table, PM me.
And I always forget this part. Starting wealth is average per class.
And a revision to the previous list. My apologies if this throws off anybody's build idea.
Current players:
Weyland Piper, Human Paladin (Shining Knight) of Iomedae - Guardian
Reinnwulf Storvagson Human Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) - Champion
@DanielStewart: looks like a solid submission. Thank you.

Apsu |

Kobold character submissions will be gladly welcomed. I've always had a soft spot for them, and I don't think enough people play them. Personally, anyway. :)
Advanced Class Guide stuff, I think I'm going to say off the table for now simply because I haven't had a chance to look at it yet. Thanks for checking.

@Chillblame: Sorry that you have to withdraw. Perhaps next time.
@Elsbeth: Looks solid. Thanks for getting that done quickly. Short a skill point by my count.
@Meria: Also looks solid. Interesting to see a LG Sorc. I haven't seen one that wasn't Chaotic before.
@Voyd211: Dinos do seem fitting, and I can work with a Diplodocus mount. I'd prefer to see some justification in backstory, though, if you go that route. I think the traditional mounts for Kobolds are Dire Weasels, although Pathfinder seems to have opted for Slurks and Giant Ants instead. Do you have the Kobolds of Golarion book?

Appearance
Auryn stands fix feet tall in bare feet and weighs 183 lbs. His celestial heritage shows in his perfectly symetrical features, muscular build, whiteless saphire eyes, and hair the color of polished bronze. He wears his hair long, pulled back into a single braid. His armour is clean and polished though there are signs of wear. His weapons and other equipment are clean and well maintained.
Auryn's mother Aerfen Cadfael was a human Paladin of Iomedae during the third Mendevian crusade one of the few not involved in the witch hunts. Auryn's father was a Solar Angel. His mother never shared with him the exact circumstances of his conception. When she discovered she was pregnant she left Mendev and went to Vigil in Lastwall. She saw it as a safer place to raise her child than a fortress a few miles from the demon infested world wound. When the fourth crusade started in 4692 AR she led a group of paladins and knights to join the new crusade against the Storm King. Auryn was one of those knights. Auryn fought under his mothers command during the crusade. At the end of the fourth crusade Aerfen retired to Nerosyan at the request of Queen Galfrey to help her try to gain more control over the crusaders in Mendev. Auryn is in Kenabres with a squad of other knights delivering packett of letters to Hulrun Shappok.

One thing I am not too sure about Aasimars is the books list them as reaching adulthood at 60. That is a heck of a long time to be a child and an adolescent especially when the parent race doesn't have a long adolescense. The time line with the crusades makes my character 45 which is still not an adult for his race according to the books. How are you handling it in your game.

Apsu |

Kobolds are a thing, and yes they're kosher in my campaigns. I was waiting for a book like that since they finished the line of Core races. Races of the Dragons was a frequently used sourcebook for me in 3.X. That said, you'll need to justify a reason for a Kobold to join the Crusades against the Worldwound, and how they've dealt with any prejudice they may have encountered.
@Morena: Very solid. And yeah, you can wait on adventuring gear until after the choosing. You have most of the necessary stuff.
@Adventurer33: Good build, although you have one ability that I'm not seeing a source for. Hard to Kill is a combat trait, and it doesn't do what you have it listed as doing. Is that ability coming from somewhere else? And as far as aging, that's something that's always bugged me, since they can come from any race. Call it you can take it down to double normal adulthood since it's a human mother.

Adventurer#33 |

@Apsu the Hard to kill was from the mythic path it was a Glitch with hero lab. It didn't remove it when I finished screwing around with mythic levels and took them off. doubling the ages puts Aasimars becoming adults at 30 years and middle aged at 70. 45 years makes my character a young adult for an Aasimar. that works for me.

Voyd211 |

I'm currently torn between two classes for my kobold.
I'm imagining him as being aggressive support, who yells pretty much everything that could possibly synonymous with the phrase "dare to be badass."
The two classes in question are the cavalier and the bard. The bard is the best buffer in the game, but fairly weak in combat. Conversely, the cavalier can fight like hell, but their buffs aren't as good.
ARGH WHAT TO CHOOSE

Shirzon the Quarter |

My entry, Leylu Freeling, halfling summoner (looking to go into the Marshal path). If the Mythic thing interferes with someone else's, I'd be more than willing to do some rewriting/shifting around to see what works better.
The link to her eidolon is in her profile, but I'll also provide it Here!
I've given her some rogue-like skills as class skills, namely Disable Device and Sleight of Hand, but I can change those in order not to step on any toes.

Voyd211 |

Well, I finally figured it out. I also changed my dinosaur mount, I'm hoping the GM will approve.
I'm fairly certain that they will approve of the deity he worships, though.

Backstory
The kobolds of the Thunderscale Tribe were baffled when Torzath was hatched. The tribes' scales were predominantly green, yet the hatchling had black scales, and the space between them seemed to be glowing.
As he grew older, very obvious differences between him and the rest of the tribe made themselves known. For while most of the kobolds were malicious and strict, Torzath felt constrained and shut down. He wanted to leave Mediogalti Island.
Then the tribe's shaman made the decision for him. Several generations prior, one of Torzath's ancestors had a brief tryst with a magma dragon. Fearful that one day the free-spirited kobold would eventually bring ruin to their home, the Thunderscale Tribe banished Torzath from Mediogalti Island. Before he left, however, he found an abandoned dinosaur egg. He took it with him, deciding that whatever was within would make good company.
Torzath has spent the past few years with the product of that egg, an allosaurus he named Jarzak. Torzath took the time to learn common, and also found himself joining the cavalier Order of the Dragon.
Torzath eventually learned of a place far to the north, where demons spill forth from the Abyss and bring ruin to the world.Guided by this knowledge, as well as dreams from a radiant metallic dragon, Torzath took the call to adventure and set off north, riding toward the rift in the world atop a grinning dinosaur.
"Never surrender! Never give up! NEVER! STOP! FIGHTING!"
WHAT DOES THE EDIT SAY: Pre-game RP, anyone?

That heritage was as clear as the markings on the right side of her body. Twisting lines of blood-red that covered the snow-white skin of the back of her right shoulder, her side, and the right side of her belly. The orphanage's caretakers could find no end to the abuse they could give. Justified that they were shoring mercy in allowing a lowly pitborn girl to live.
Allysen seemed to be set on proving them right. More often than not, she was in some kind of trouble, for everything from bullying other children to breaking windows or plates. Shortly after turning thirteen she ran away, deciding that life anywhere could not be worse than what it was at that place.
She was mistaken, however, and soon found herself in the Worldwound. Worse, she was also the captive of one of the demonic cults that infested its borders. Five days after her capture, she had learned to be quiet, and was just hoping for a chance to run. That chance came later when a group of fiendish monsters attacked the cult and began to slaughter them. How she managed to escape, she'll never know, but what happened next was etched into her mind, as clear as clean mountain water.
A beautiful woman wearing a tattered cloak found her, bloodied and bruised from her captivity and escape. The woman helped her to her feet and lead her to Kenabres, bluffing her way past more than one group of cultist. Allysen was struck by how troubled the woman seemed, clutching a silver symbol as she walked. They hardly talked, just enough for her to know that this woman was a friend and for Allysen to tell her her name.
Barely a mile outside of Kenabres, the woman disappeared, but Allysen was not alone for long. A patrol found the young girl and brought her in. After the inquisitors were satisfied that she was no threat, they allowed her to stay at a local orphanage. This time, however, was different. The caretakers still treated her the same, but she was different. An obsession took her and she found out as much as she could about that silver symbol. It was a delicate thing, made of silver and set with amethyst. It wasn't long before one of the local priest who was knowledgeable about such things knew her by name. The symbol was Desna's the goddess of dreams, travelers, and luck.
Not long after that, Allysen began to follow the Starsong. The bullying was replaced by mentoring, the destructiveness gone, with kindness and a yearning for a night sky free from the Abyss' influence taking its place. She still stumbled however, her temper would flare, but she found that singing was soothing to that aspect of her being. Now, nearly six years after being rescued, she has grown into a young, quiet woman, whose song eases the pain of others.
Her eyes are dark, with sapphire flecks sprinkled throughout. Her hair is midnight blue and is hidden by the hood of her cloak. her skin is pale as snow with red markings running down her right side. Her teeth are mostly normal, save for the sharp fangs that are where a human's canines would be.
If you have any questions, please PM me and I'll do my best to answer them.

@AdamWarnock
You sir are nutty for having Con as your dump stat. No judgement, just saying. ;)
Nice character backstory too, wonder how she would struggle with all the temptation of evil as she grows stronger. It's one thing to retreat when your the victim, it's something else when your in the predator's seat so to speak.

AdamWarnock |

@Voyd211: "Even in the darkest night, the stars still shine." Sounds like something she'd say. Despite the fear, she's still hopeful.
@Nenthil Wardcaller: Trust me, you're not the first person to have questioned my sanity ;). Anyway, it helps that I'm planning on having her as a support character. Her strength is not how she handles fights, but how she can help others. I'm still debating on her ultimate path, but I think I have a solid beginning.
As for temptation, well, I think that's something I'm going to have to think about. It'd be a good RP opportunity though, and it also provides a way for her to grow further.
Anyway, I'm going to fiddle with some ideas I have and see what I can come up with. I'm glad you like Allysen. Best of luck to you.

Well, unfortunately when I arrived at work this morning I was greeted with a very strong smell of diesel. Apparently our building has a gas leak and we've been moved elsewhere, sans computer. So, needless to say I won't be able to finish my character submission for this campaign. Good luck to all who get in!
