GM WhtKnt's Darkness Within: A Carrion Crown Adventure Path

Game Master WhtKnt

From the whispering shadows of haunted Ustalav an ancient evil rises to grip the world in a new age of horror!

Amid the mists of this land of dark superstition and dread secrets stand both those who would defy the return of evil and those who would seek its terrible favor. Can the heroes discern their allies from their enemies in time to save a tortured realm from a tyrant’s return? Pathfinder’s darkest and most frightening campaign ever sets the heroes against the agents of Golarion’s most notorious villain, the Whispering Tyrant, in a terrifying trek across a land of lurking horror and ancient mysteries.

Okay, after some thinking and discussion, let me start by saying that there are no bad builds. Some are just better suited than others for a given situation. You all submitted characters that I would be proud to GM, so please don't feel bad if you were not chosen.

After some brief discussion and consideration on my part, we are going to take on Dylan ap Dryffed and Cassandra Blackmoore. The two of you can report to the Gameplay thread and we'll get you in as soon as the current battle is done.

Thank you to everyone who submitted. It was truly interesting reading over your submissions and the choice was not easily reached on my part.


Thanks for the consideration, GM! Have fun you all.

Grand Lodge

Have fun.

The con was a lot of fun! Our Gaming Guest of Honor was Shane Hensley, of Savage Worlds fame, and both our Author Guest of Honor (Max Gladstone, Empress of Forever and Last Exit) and our Media Guest of Honor (Jake Stormoen, The Outpost) joined us in playing games! Jake and Max even underwent the Klingon Day of Honor ceremony where they pronounce their great deeds for the year and bring honor to their house (our local Star Trek club does the ceremony every year for anyone who wishes to undertake it). I'm sorry to take so long to get back to this. It's been a whirlwind three days since the convention with wrap-up details (getting people to the airport, paying taxes, etc.).

Awesomeness!!

I am recruiting for three open slots in this game. The characters are currently 6th level, 15 point buy, no 3rd party materials, no evil alignments, two traits; one must be from the Carrion Crown Player's Guide, begin with maximum hit points. After that, you will take the average (just as for PFS play).

On Friday, March 13, I will select three applicants from those who apply. The current group consists of a half-elf summoner, a dhampir inquisitor, and a skinwalker bloodrager.


Anything in particular you’re looking to fill in terms of party role? I see you don’t have a full caster or trapfinder, but then again a summoner and inquisitor can probably pretty well cover casting most of the time, I’ve known parties with no full caster.


As the Inquisitor's player, I don't think my casting is going to be very good, since I just started taking the Knight of Ozem prestige class and will be taking it for the foreseeable future.

I may have a Cleric I could update


Got a djust here but here she is


Is the

Fractional Base Bonuses Rule

acceptable for this campaign? This balances out the oddities with saves and BAB that sometimes occur while multiclassing. I have a switch-hitting multiclass Desnan Bard I'd like to submit that can't hit anything without this ruleset. He can fill the traps role as well with the right traits.


Party Summoner here. I'm the party's trapbreaker. It's outside my class' usual shtick, but it's what I built the character around. Don't worry about trying to fill that role.

The game has a very gothic survival horror feel to it. Character themes that would fit into Dracula/Frankenstein/Solomon Kain would be good choices

Also, plan to be frugal with character resources. We've had adventuring days that lasted an entire IRL year. My advice is to avoid "nova" characters that burn through resources quickly. You might end up without many options for a long time.

Beyond that, we could really use ranged support and healing.

Grand Lodge

I see


Guns okay? Looking at a musketeer.

Dark Archive

Firearms are acceptable.

Grand Lodge

Gonna work on a cleric. Slightly different. But still a cleric.


Actually, the Bloodrager Skinwalker is also a fractured mind spiritualist! And I am his phantom yesyes! And I am almost definitly smarter then him!


You think that, because, unlike me, you arent able to accept that 8>7!

Yes, my math skills carry me that far!

Irregardless of this, I half expect that someone we recruit will end up being smarter then both of us together.

What really shocks me is that my "fractured mind" is wise then me though.


I'm getting this profile setup for my musketeer. Standard money for a 6th level character?


Can we assume any pregame crafting? A musketeer gets gunsmithing so bullets and guns are much cheaper if crafted.


Most everything is done except for gear. Still finalizing that.

Dark Archive

Yes, you may assume some pregame crafting at the usual costs. Money and gear for a level 6 character.


Hi GM! It's Lapyd here with my submission - Daqas is an Alchemist, going for the whole Jekyll & Hide vibe (hoping to go for the "Master Chymist" prestige class once he qualifies for it). Profile should be complete with background, crunch, and a bit more flavor I wanted to add.

Okay, I think I will go with Lapyd (Daqas Kukiarr), Ironperenti (Alistair Fox), and Critzable's cleric (if he still wants in). Thanks to all who showed an interest.

Grand Lodge

I do

Grand Lodge

I just am not excited about this cleric. I was, but now it's just not coming to gether like I want it too.

Dark Archive

It's not a big deal, I think that they have healing largely covered. Play what you would like to play.

Grand Lodge

Might try a Dwarf Kineticist
