Greetings!
I am now starting a table of six players for Pathfinder Society Scenarios, Scenario x-xx, [Title]. If you have played other PFS scenarios on these forums, then it is nothing unusual. However, for players not familiar with PFS or posting here, I'll post a few guidelines.
- Technical Bits
- You need a legal PFS (Pathfinder Society) character.
- Post your legal character. (Paizo People --> Aliases). Here is mine for example. Use of Hero Lab is helpful to the player, but not required by the GM. Please make sure that your PFS number is easy to find.
- I do not require your previous Chronicle Sheets. I assume you will be honest with me and your fellow players. If a question of an item comes up, I may ask to know where and how you got said item.
- Maps will be posted through a Drop Box web page. Please make sure you can access this service if you sign up.
- Recruitment Process
- Recruitment will open now and will close once we have enough players to start.
- Players who have played with me in the past usually get special consideration. Please mention the last game you played with me and what character you played (especially if using an alias).
- Please post your Character Name, Level, Class and what Tiers you would like to play (if applicable).
- Posting Guidelines
- Be able to post about 1-2 times per day.
- Typical scenarios take about 6 weeks of time to play. Please make sure you are available for the entirety of play.
- If you are going to be away from the message boards for more than a day or so, please post in the Discussion thread.
- Remember, the most important rule... Don’t Be A Jerk!
- Comabt Procedures
- During a combat, please check the Initiative Order. This is usually at the bottom of the post. PC's will have their names in bold. That indicates the active PC who need to post a turn. I personally don't care which order PC's go. Player A may go first in one round while player B in the next. That is ok. In a face to face table that would end up with a delay action with those two players switching spots in the order. As long as you are going before the NPC there is no real difference.
- What does matter is people posting extra turns in one combat round. Please only post once per combat round. It is acceptable that if you will unavailable for a day or so to post your turn or a series of turns. Please do that in the spoiler tags to help avoid confusion.
- I will summarize a players turn with narrative. If your turn isn't summarized then one of two things have happened: (1) I made a mistake, please post using a Spoiler tag labeled "GM" or send me a PM. I'll correct the mistake. (2) You made a mistake. Its cool it happens, but I'll just ignore the action and move on (much like at a real table).
- During combat, if your turn has been active for greater than 24 hours, I'll hold your action and try to move on. At this time, I’ll ask for your fellow players to list an action in your behalf. If you haven't posted for several weeks then I will run your character to the best of my ability.
- Final Bits!
- Be ready to have fun!
- Interact well with others!!
- Serve the Society to the best of your ability!!!
- If there are any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
