Lot of good submissions from a lot experience players good to learn from. Thanks for sharing stuff guys.
@BigBenClockTower yeap, your eidolon is yours to RP as you see fit. I only reserve the right to intervene in extreme situations such as when your character asks something completely against the eidolon's nature and you do not reasonably reflect that in the eidolon's reaction (say, you ask your child-friendly eidolon to sacrifice a newborn to the glory of asmodeus and it does the thing willingly). Is that acceptable?
@Theshen I was wondering when we'd get our divine-blooded guest =) To answer your questions: 1) yes, no problem at all, provided you follow the usual restrictions for traits (as you did), but thanks for asking; 2) yes, that is correct, you will start with common/taldane plus your native language.
@Thrarathrane indeed!
@GM Omelas: Acceptable enough to me!
I'll have something up by day's end.
@BigBenClockTower thanks, looking forward!
Updated with equipment, weapons, and armor.
&**()$&*&*(#@!%^
Internet gremlins ate my background post. I will try to rewrite it..again..lol
The young man moves steadily, if not so swiftly with the crowded, buzzing streets. He is wrapped in light blue robes of quality cloth that has seen a little wear. Flashes of an armoured coat can be seen underneath, giving him a martial air that the plain quarterstaff does not quite manage. He has a noble face, with eyes with irises that resemble obsidian stones.
And he is late.
He enters the garden of his soon-to-be host, slightly warmed up by his hurried walk.
He will look around for a servant, eager to make amends for his delay, even if the delay could not be helped.
We seem to have 6 complete submissions at the moment:
Thrarathrane Starwise elf wizard (universalist)
Waylund Wyllt human wizard (conjuror)
Shu-kri Kaba human investigator (empiricist)
Theshen human oracle of life (divine herbalist)
Hjorleaf Asvidrson human fighter
(not sure if you managed to update your background or not)
plus 2 incomplete submissions: Hadiya Quereshi and Senebenhof, both missing crunch, but with background already in. In case you have submitted a character and I somehow missed it, let me know.
I've added the character creation guidelines to the campaign info (updated with the clarifications to answers asked after the initial post was published). Hopefully this helps with the process now that we're over 50 posts.
Yep, still planning on getting Hadiya's stats up in the next couple days. Tax season crunch is in full swing,

Of course, no problem at all, we're still well within the deadline. I just wanted to have a summary of the current roster to make sure I didn't miss anything.
I'm intrigued. Good old 'Dhru here was originally created for a Mummy's Mask game that dried up (check the character's posts to get an idea of where I was going with him), and I think I could easily reimagine him for this. But I'm not sure if I want to keep him as a Steel Hound.
Please accept this post as a declaration of interest, and if I get a clear idea of how I want "Badhru 2.0" to look, I'll post before the deadline Friday.
Thank you!
Yep, still planning on getting Hadiya's stats up in the next couple days. Tax season crunch is in full swing,
Put backstory on profile page as requested.
@Badhru thanks for the interest! Let me know if there's anything I can do to help =)
@Thrarathrane Starwise sorry, I thought I had replied when you first mentioned it. Cheers, mate, much appreciated.
I think I am ready...I hope the background makes sense. I rewrote it quickly, so I will try to adjust it to make sense better.
Sure! I'm thinking, in the (likely) event I drop Steel Hound, he'll either be a Psychic Detective or a vanilla Investigator, with a melee focus. He was the apprentice to a private investigator named Woodrose, from Absalom. To get him involved here, I'm thinking after Woodrose died, in his will he stipulated that Badhru deliver a package (contents unknown) to Amenopheus. Does that work?
@Badhru sounds good to me, can already see a couple of ways of hooking up that package to the story. The psychic detective could definitely fit the setting (thinking how the occult often has a thing for ancient egypt). As for the build, feel free to play around with it until friday, just let me know when you're done with it.
@Hjorleaf ok, thanks for letting me know =)

GM Omelas,
I'd like to add the following custom cantrips to Waylund's spell book if they pass muster. They should be inline with the rules for designing custom spells. For the most part I've taken them from 3rd part sources with some slight modifications either for flavor or because I thought they were too strong for Cantrips.
I'd also like to know if Alchemical Power components from the adventurer's armory are allowed.
Please see:Paizo's rules for designing custom spells and List of Reagents and their affects when used at Spell Components.
Respectfully,
Waylund

Gracias!
A half-orc young man enters the room. His clothing marks him as being from Avistan, probably Absalom. His hair is jet black and short, but a bit scraggly, as if it was cut several weeks ago but is growing back in. He wears a moustche and goatee, the way younger men will sometimes in an effort to look older. Over his right shoulder is a leather satchel.
As he enters the room, he takes a goblet of wine offered by a servant. Looking about, he seats himself on a cushion pushed up against the wall, from which he can see the door. A different servant comes over and offers to take the young man's hat and satchel. "Thank you," he says as he gives over his hat. Nodding toward the bag, the youth says, "This, however, will stay with me. It is for the master of the house, and I am under orders to give it only to him."
"Hah, 'This will stay with me,'" Badhru imagines the voice of his late mentor in his head, mimicking him. "Kid, when yer voice changes yer gonna sound real impressive."
Quiet, you old coot, Badhru argues with himself. I liked you better when you were an alive old codger, and not a figment of my imagination.
@Badhru Thank you for the submission. Curious to see which way the coin will flip
You and me both! ;)

Appearance: Tall with skin bronzed from the constant exposure to the sun, Senebhenaf (Seneb) keeps his head and face shaved clean so that there is less for the sand and dust of the road to get trapped in. His hazel eyes reflect his intelligence and sense of humor. The leather armor he wears consists of strips of leather with small harder leather plates attached. The bow he carries of of a dark wood, and of obviously fine craftsmanship. He keeps a small hammer tucked into his belt on one side, and a dagger on the other.
Personality: Quiet and reserved, In unfamiliar situations or among unfamiliar people, Seneb has a tendency to observe rather than speak. Once he gets familiar with his surroundings and companions, Seneb opens up and his humor and good cheer come out. In combat however, he becomes focused on ending the battle as quickly as possible without injuries to himself or his companions.
What do people know about you: Quiet, good sense of humor when with friends. Very knowledgeable of dungeon-like environments
What does your character want in life? To learn, to explore the unknown. to protect those he is responsible for and to prove himself worthy of joining the Pathfinder Society.
Background: Born to an Osirian vizer and his soldier wife in Shiman-Sekh, Seneb grew up in an environment where not just knowledge and the arcane were given importance, but where the arts of defense and combat were given just as much weight. By the time Seneb was fifteen, he had been training in both for several years. Along the way, he was introduced to the Pathfinder Society as his mother and father took on several missions for them. It was on several of these missions where they brought Seneb along and he proved how well he had learned his lessons.
From expeditions to explore the Labyrinth near Shiman-Sekh, to guarding caravans to Sothis, Seneb managed to prove he had learned his lessons well and that he was capable of using both arcane and martial methods to deal with and resolve a variety of situations. He was requested by name for several expeditions to a variety of unnamed ruins and tombs for his ability to defend himself and others as well as for his arcane and tomb knowledge.

I'd like to submit Asmani for consideration. I really enjoyed your intro text, and would love to help weave a sumptuous and thrilling tale with the rest of the group.
I decided to go with Dhru as a Rogue. I'll clean out the bits of backstory that pertain to Wati/Mummy's Mask tomorrow, but it's late and I'm crashing. :)

”Waylund Wyllt. Unas-Ankh. Badhru. Asmani Khonsu. And Hadiya Qureshi. The Sapphire Sage Amenopheus would weep with gratitude if you were to grant him a private audience at the present time.” The matron pauses as she says each name, her voice stumbling and faltering on some of the frequent Bs and Ws present in the foreign names. She gestures towards a doorway adorned with geometric patterns in red and blue – a common motif throughout the house – and promptly follows the guests once they leave the room. ”Pardon the confusion, revered effendis. I shall bring you to Master Amenopheus immediately. After the audience you will be welcome to join the feast,” says the matron once they are distant enough from the main hall.
The sound of animated chatter and pitchers of wine stays behind the group as they go up a flight of stairs, then an entrance covered by a translucent curtain. Pushing it away, they enter a room of similar dimensions to the main hall. On the walls, they see shelves packed with all sorts of things ranging from books and vials to ancient osirian figurines and gems. In a corner, something green simmers inside a ceramic pot. The rest of the room is covered with books, scrolls and ceramic tablets strewn over silk pillows and luxurious rugs, all arranged in circular patterns that lead a visitor's eyes to the centre of the chamber. There they find a round table a few centimetres tall around which sit three people: an old man covered in fine blue silks and wearing a magnificent turban with a blue gem in its centre; a garundi woman in her early twenties with a shaved head and wearing a white silk kaftan with details in gold; and a dark-skinned woman so concentrated on a book she still hasn’t noticed the group of people entering the room. The man stands up and smiles warmly as the guests arrive. ”Your presence is like that of the gods. I am Amenopheus and these are Nenet, my apprentice, and Shu-kri Kaba, an honoured guest just like yourselves,” he says, gesturing first at the garundi woman and then at the other, who drops her book, startled at hearing her own name. ”Please, take a seat.”
