This is the official recruitment thread for the Fifth Online Play by Post Gameday. We will be playing Scenario #6–06: Hall of the Flesh Eaters, which is designed for levels 1–5. Play will begin on opening day of the Gameday: August 27, 2016.
Shrouded in thick fog, the shifting Gloomspires north of the Shackles have long frustrated explorers. However, a recent discovery by the Pathfinder Society has revealed a brief opportunity to navigate the columns safely and search for the lost treasure of the legendary pirate Sevenfingers. The only problem is that the Pathfinders are not the only visitors to the Gloomspires.

Players should:
- Be a registered member of Pathfinder Society Organized Play.
- Apply & post with a complete, legal character of appropriate level. Please include your PFS number for your submitted character on the Alias profile and/or post it to the discussion thread with the form I provide for information for your Chronicle Sheet. I am open to any format of character sheet, but please make sure all information is available and easy to find.
- Make sure you are familiar with the rules included in the Pathfinder Society Roleplaying Guild Guide. It's a free download and part of the core assumption.
- Commit to check in and post at least once per day on weekdays. Post rate is key in keeping a PBP fresh and interesting to all who participate. I will always understand that life comes first, but this is Official Society Play. Habitual stragglers will be asked to step down if I feel they are not carrying their weight as Pathfinders.
- Recognize that the rules of Pathfinder Society Organized Play require the player to own the Additional Reasources used to build his/her character. While I will not ask for any proof of ownership, I will expect to be provided with a link to the Online Reference Document when asked. Coding the links into your sheet will save time and is especially appreciated.
As your GM, I will:
- Finalize tables by August 26, 2016, if not before then, and begin the game before 11:59 pm my time on August 27, 2016.
- Update the Gameplay thread at least once per day during the week as well as once over the weekend or do my best to notify the group of the reason for the delay as soon as I am able.
- Report our progress and send out Chronicle sheets at the conclusion of each scenario we run.
- Respond in a timely manner to any questions or concerns.
I have a lot of affection for the Play-by-Post format. I like that it gives players the opportunity to really think through their character's actions, strategize and plan with their teammates and really flesh out their PC's personalities with (at least a little!) characterization and role-playing. If you apply to this game, please be prepared to provide more in your posts than a one-line directive with all the flare and personality of "rook to queen bishop 4".
I'm looking forward to a great Gameday. Let's have some fun!

While shaking off a heavy days accumulation of dirt, a plainly clothed man wearing a chain shirt calmly walks into the room. After placing a well crafted longbow off to one side of a near by table, he finds a seat and then makes himself comfortable.
Glancing around the room he makes a mental note that the room apears to be a lot more vacent then had had hoped for. (Maybe the Gloomspire is more of a problem then I thought.)

Day Job:
"Reporting as ordered, Sir," said the clean-cut former crusader in brisk, military tones. "I'll have this unit ready for action by the time we ship out. We'll get the job done and bring everyone home safely. I've seen off worse than pirates in my time."
Busy prepping for GenCon right now but I am definitely interested in playing Flesh Eaters and it's sequel with you, bluedove

A lone dwarf stumbles into the room, his dusty clothes scattering the light from the hallway. He seems to be the second one here, which suits him just fine. He nods silently to the other man and props his shield against the wall and then pulls out his axe, instinctively cleaning the edge off on his trousers. He waits patiently for the next hardy souls to arrive, although the longer the better. More time to think.

Ok, I'm calling it! Looks like we might be leaning toward the higher tier depending on what caps brings to the table. I don't have the scenario in front of me yet, but I suspect it will be 4-5. If anyone would like to swap out a higher level character or play a pregen you are more than welcome to. Tarondor, I'm looking at you... ^_~
#6–06: Hall of the Flesh Eaters (sub-tier 4-5)
-------------------------------------------------------------
Thallin Quin - (Magus Myrmidarch 2 / Rogue Unchained-Sniper 1)
The Restful Spirit - Monk (Spirit Master) 4
Carax the Golden - Human cavalier (strategist) 1
Fingalad Eldahir(or whomever caps decides to bring =P)
Herr Magt Jaeger - Lvl 3 Bloodrager
Dreggar - Slayer 2 / Investigator 2
Hmmmm....
I'll consider the pregen angle and report back.
I'll go with the 4th-level Ezren, pregenerated wizard. Seems like we could use a bit of the arcane.
Sweet. Thanks bd
I've made the campaign for this game. Feel free to dot in on Gameplay and then come answer some questions in Discussion for me.
