Ok I am finished fleshing out my campaign, so recruitment can now official begin. For the interest thread and the DISCLAIMER, link is here: http://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75hohbl/recruiting
For the setting and the homebrew rules check out the Campaign Info
I will be attempting to run this through Skype and Maptools (unless I find something better) the timetable is looking like Wed or Thurs evening/late afternoon. However if interest is high enough and I get enough applicants I will also run a PBP game, same world different campaign so tell me which one you would prefer to do (you cannot play in both).
I am shooting for next Thursday as the start time meaning I'm probably going to cut off recruitment around Tuesday evening based on how many applicants I get.
Here are the rules for applicants
1. Standard 20 point buy with 2 traits, anything not listed on the pfsrd or third party has to run through me first. All core races are fine, non-core races once again have to run through me.
2. All classes are available except for the gunslinger and its archetypes. But there will be guns in the campaign so if that's not your thing sorry.
3. You will be allowed to use the Advance Race Play Test Book but you are limited to 10 points, standard and advanced traits and you must provide a GOOD BACKSTORY for your entire race (like why they weren't around in the past). I reserve the right to reject races.
4. I need backstory on your applications, that includes personality traits and a reason why your in Absalom (where the party is going to start).
5. I will also need your timezone and availablity (either to play or to post).
I think that's everything but if you have any questions or just want to criticize my grammar, spelling, homebrew rules, story, or any combination of the above please feel free to post it or pm me.
And as always every night I don't get a new applicant a 6 pack of beer dies.

Hi
Prob have to check timezones & the other PFS games, but Im interested. Raphael (friend of mine in the South who's used to wierd timezone gaming) might also be interested. (We're in UK).
I'm looking at the Tiefling (without the Fiendish Sorcery thing, so 10 pts).
Tired of his life as a pitfighter in Cheliax, he's 'bought' his way out and moved to Absalom for the freedom it grants.
I'll just be using PFS legal stuff, but may 'stray' a bit with the Traits.
Scarface Bladebound Magus
Str 12 Dex 18 Con 12 Int 18 Wis 10 Cha 5
I can run up a char sheet on Foxit & email it to you. 150 GP starting cash?
Thanks

Paul:
Thanks for the interest! MAX GOLD but I forgot to post no stat under 7 and no stat above 20 (I'm extremely sorry that I told you this after you took the time to built your character). But besides the Cha, your character looks good.
NEW STUFF!
I also will be using the plot twist deck (that I never get to use) so each character gets two to start.
Also as an EDIT I'm taking out rule 3. Just figured out how much headache that is when my roomate tried to create a race.
This application is for the Skype campaign, either day and any time. Able to play well into the night. Afternoon or later is a preference for when the game starts. My time zone is MST.
Once you get back to me on what inquisitions belong to Aroden then I can add it to his information. I'm using a pdf character sheet that I can send to you over Skype. As of this writing it's about halfway done.
Character Info:
Berathram Sundén, Half-Elf
LN Inquisitor of Aroden (Preacher archetype)
5'11'', 165lbs, 32 years old
Point Buy: 11, 14, 12, 10, 16, 12 (+2)
Traits: Jaded, Child of the Street
Backstory:
Journeying to forget his past, Berathram preoccupies himself as a freelance detective working for private contractors. His services are open to any who can afford them, with the condition that he will not go against a clearly outlined code of honor. Walks a fine line between upholding the law and being a heretic, due to extreme methods.
Currently, Berathram is on a year long pilgrimage in the name of Aroden. He has tasked himself with the goal of arresting a lawbreaker in every city he passes through on the pilgrimage. Each one must be a greater threat than the last. As he approaches Absalom, Berathram prepares to take down the most challenging criminal yet, or die trying.

It's Answer Time!
AllRedTie:
Inquisitions are now available in the campaign info screen.
Peter J:
Yes you can take the trait as long as you give me backstory on why he has it. Also you have to give me some personality traits too.
I am also going to need your availablity (I saw in the other thread you are on EST).
Ticking for interest (now that I know the timezones would work out).
Race: Goblin
Inquiring for race?
Goblins are prefectly fine as long as you don't mind short jokes. Also feel free to take goblin traits as well.
Short jokes? One of my tabletop characters is a Gnome wizard and the other is a Halfling rogue. Yeah, I'm good with that!

I know that you have already approved this because your sitting right next to me but I'm posting this so everyone else can see:
After a Tien merchant vessel crashed on a small island chain between Tian-Xia and Sarusan the crew, with no means of repairing their vessel, thought themselves dead. However, they where soon approached by a strange species with two head. While the creatures did not appear to be hostile the crew was still fearful and approached the creatures with caution. After some time and several brief encounters agnome translator realized that their language was a pidgin of others he was fluent with. Once the Gnome was able to decipher the language he realized that the Taddol where peaceful and wanted to assist the stranded crew. While repairs where made to the ship, the Gnome shared stories about the rest of Golarion, greatly surprising the Taddol. It was soon clear to him that the Taddol where under the impression the world outside their islands where filled only with terrible monsters. While most where in disbelief of the Gnome’s accounts others became curious, so it was decided that several youth would be sent with the merchants, once their ship was sea worth, to verify these new claims.
Aidin & Eidin are two of the several pairs of youths to explore the Golarion. While they are hesitant they have little choice, Aidin’s anger and Eidin’s curiosity for alchemy and anatomy have caused them to be outcasts. While they are still accepted other Taddol view them with suspicion and in a desire to prove their devotion to their people have vowed to explore the world. However, with little experience of affairs outside their islands the pair, like all the other Taddol scouts, quickly became lost and now wonder aimlessly throughout Golarion. They refuse to return home until they feel that their mission has been accomplished.
Aidin is the dominate of the two. He tends to act without thinking and is easier to anger than a typical Taddol because he and his brother where bullied as children. He usually acts in order to protect himself and his brother from danger. Chaotic Neutral
Eidin is the subordinate of the two. While Aidin is making decisions for them Eidin studies the secrets of not only the Alchemical world and Anatomy, but the mysteries of Golarion as well. Eidin finds safety in order and respects differences between two individuals. Lawful Neutral

I am interested in joining as well. I am in Utah, MST. I work nights and have Tuesday through Thursday off. I prefer late afternoon games (because of my night schedule.
Not sure what I'll play. I don't have many preferences and will usually fill out the party. I would like to talk to you on skype first and then I will make a character.
Interested in this - would prefer PbP to Skype, but not that fussy if PbP isn't available. My timezone's GMT.
Name: Yusuf Al-Aziri
Race: Human (Rahadoumi)
Class: Fighter (Shielded fighter)
Al: NG
Stats: Str 16, Dex 14 (16 w/+2 racial modifier), Con 14, Wis 12, Int 13, Cha 10.
Traits: Suspicious, Exile.
Feats: Improved shield bash, two weapon fighting, combat expertise.
Background Born in the city of Azir in Rahadoum, Yusuf was born into a military family and eagerly carried on the traditions of his ancestors by enlisting as soon as he was old enough to do so. He served his country faithfully for years, but one day, discovered that his wife was having an affair with his commanding officer. This news broke him completely; he went AWOL from his unit, drinking and drugging himself to excess, and has only just got out of a military prison. There is nothing left for him in Rahadoum as he has thoroughly disgraced himself and his family, so he has
come to Absalom to join the Greycloaks in an attempt to rebuild his life.
Let's try to maintain some semblence of party cohesion within a single genre.
This party is pretty diverse and wacky, I'm liking it. With the DM giving this much freedom we might not want to get too attached to our characters until we all "sit down" and discuss what we want from the game and create a semblance of cohesion.
mine skype is william.strablef5
My skype is in my profile.
decided to make a different character didn't like my other one.

He got his first taste of alchemy when he got his hands on a paper candle. It didn't take him long before he'd drained the black powder out of the firework, mixed it with some common items from around the goblin camp and remade the simple firework into a dangerous explosive. Unfortunately for Stick-beat-smarty he didn't realize the tiny firework had become dangerous until he'd stuck a few of them into his tunic pockets and gotten too close to the dinner fire.
That was the night the goblin shaman renamed him Firebottom and "banished" him from the tribe. Except his exile from the tribe wasn't the normal "go-out-into-the-swamp-and-hope-you-drown" type of situation. The shaman had already secretly taught Firebottom how to read and write Common. Wandering through the swamp the shaman had once met a hedgewizard who was in business with an alchemist.
So Firebottom was sent off to the immense, bustling streets of Absalom with only a few scraps of paper. With only the name of the alchemist and sigil of the shaman as introduction it took the young goblin nearly a year on the streets of Absalom to find the dingy shop he was looking for. Firebottom's dogslicers and upbringing in the dangerous goblin tribe helped to keep him safe during that time.
Firebottom had kept one paper candle safe during his time living on the streets and the alchemist was excited to see the odd mix of chemicals he'd used to increase the explosive power of the simple firework. It didn't take much to realize the smart little goblin child was a natural and the alchemist put him to work at once - sweeping his floors and making meals. An apprenticeship has to start somewhere ...
A few years later (now) Firebottomstik has learned the basics of the alchemist ways and is desperate to explore. With the monocle he's fashioned out of a found piece of glass he wants to revisit his old tribe to show them how he's grown into an adventurer.
