This will be based in present time Golarion. All characters will be memebers of The Harbingers, a group that trys to "right" cosmic wrongs and bring about the Age of Glory the Book of a Thousand Whispers prophecizes. More information on them can be found in the "Inner Sea Guide" pg261.
25 point buy in
All characters will be Azlanti Pure Bloods(just like humans except +2 to every stat.More information on them can be found in the "Inner Sea Guide" on pg12.) Your bloodline is only known to you and Arodeth herself. You were all selected individually because of your bloodlines and of things fortold in the Book of a Thousand Whispers.
2-traits(can choose racial traits and alternate advancement for favored class as humans).
All classes allowed from Core,APG,UM, and UC.
All characters start with additional trait- Harbinger: +2 circumstance to any knowledge skill dealing with a prophecy. May choose one Knowledge skill, this skill is always a class skill.
All characters start with no equipment-This will be explained, do not worry I would not put you in a no-win situation at level 1.
Any alignment is allowed, realize though that you are all working as a team towards a common goal, and you are all of the same rare race.

WoW to the stat build. A character that needs a lot of different key stats would benefit greatly.
I am interested to see where this goes I don't have the Inner Sea guide - I have the older version, but am thinking of getting it to update myself.
Until then I'm thinking of taking a Bard as to have a good - CHA, DEX, INT, and perhaps STR to go with all that.
Will post up a character shortly.

You say that if we tie are background in with The Harbringers of Fate we get 1 Hero Point. Can you tell me if we are part of Lady Arodeth's Band of Blades? or are we working with them? against?
Do we have a mentor or leader (like a Venture-Captain) that sends us out to fulfill/witness the prophesy coming about?
Posting as Jazismus and am about to do up his stats. Do Azlanti pure bloods get the Bonus Feat and Skilled racial features like a normal human?

I am not familar with her Band of Blades can you quote the source? You will be working for her directly though.

Arodeth herself sends you on your first mission, things will go from there.

Yes, you get everything a human gets + the stats. They are a pretty stout race, but the firt scenario you get no equipment so a bit of a trade off.

I goggled Harbingers of Fate and got little info on the Band. I have done most of the crunch work and will have a background up tomorrow night.
Please check my numbers when you get a chance.
Looks good, one thing though Arodeth is not a deity,maybe you were thinking Aroden? Arodeth is just the leader of The Harbingers. I am just going by the Inner Sea World Guide for 90% of my back ground.
Just applying with Belros tweaked a bit of the background but I'm going to bed for the night and hope he is decent enough since I did not make him specialized and well rounded to fit any roll as fighter.

I assume you are using the older version of the Heirloom weapon trait, that is ok with me. I can not see your feats, other then that looks good.
Posting interest. I've been dying to try out a knife master rogue, possibly with a few levels of brawler fighter thrown in, although with that generous stat buy, may try a melee-brute bear shaman druid. Will try to post something this evening.

Didn't know there was one, were can I find it?
Nazard here. This is a half-elf master summoner who uses her eidolon for utility (and eventually casting from scroll and wands) while the summoner herself is quite buff and a melee type (with a pole-arm). I can fairly easily redo her as a human (Azlanti pure-bloods having just as long a history of family traditions as some elven families, perhaps? I don't own the Inner Sea Guide to know all the details).
The stats in the profile are for a 25 point buy with no ability score increases. I'll get her redone hopefully tonight, but am in the process of moving, so I may not get to it until tomorrow.

Under products there is errata, dont worry though you can use the olderversion since it will fit with the campaign. They nerfed it pretty hard a lot of forum threads about it.

I am sorry for this campaign I am only allowing Azlanti pure bloods, no half-races. The Azlanti are an ancient race that ruled long ago, whos continent sank(Simular to Alantis). Most humans are decended to some degree from Azlanti, but a very few are actual pure bloods.
I have an idea for a wizard, an individual obsessed with prophecies, specially those about Aroden and it's return who one day found an obscure verse in an ancient and probably forged prophecy that clearly talked of him, Evenor Timaeus the Fatetouched. I'm not sure if he should be a Diviner or a Universalist with preference for divination spells in his books. I'll try to expand on him later. What do you think?

That would work out well.
This is Keddah with Evenor, the background is half finished, working on the crunch.
Should the +2 to all stats go on top of the standard +2 to one stat for humans or replace it?

Oh good catch, yes it is Just +2 to all stats/ that replaces the +2 to one. Other then that just like humans, including extra feat ect.
Posting an initial interest. I was thinking of creating a Magus with the Blade Bound archetype. Not sure where the campaign will lead, but I'd assume the black blade would be the impetus to push my character deeper and deeper into the plot. My character would otherwise be only consumed with his own perfection, blending sword and spell. Almost uncaring about anything else. The Harbringers would be a stepping stone to his own ascension to godhood - following in the path of Aroden. Let me know if this sounds good.
I'll write up my characters detail in this profile within the next couple of hours.
Crunch done but for choosing spells, background finished (will expand on lesser details if you prefer but the main points are already there)
Do you intend this to be a roleplay centered game? a combat oriented one? or something in the middle?

Good question, honestly this will be my first time running a PbP for pathfinder, but I have done it for other games like Deathwatch and Dark Heresy. I intend to have a decent amount of both I hope, enough to keep everyone interested.
All the big need-to-know stuff is pretty much done in my profile. Looking forward to playing. Let me know if something is amiss.
We are going to have an arcane powerhouse with this group. If anything, the bard can get a wand of cure light wounds and we will be good to go =). I'm really interested in the utility eidolon - didn't realize they could be used for anything other than a brute-fighter.
Well before I choose feat I'm waiting to see what is going to be needed for the fighter to pick since I might try a shield fighter or some other kind of fighter archetype like crossbow.

If you are going for a defensive fighter, this archetype looks amazing: Armor Master That archetype combined with a shield fighter would be very nice. I'm thinking about going down that route with my other character.

Looks good. I reviewed the Blade Bound archetype, it seems you get your special blade at level 3. I think Arodeth will give you this once you reach level 3, to fullfil her promise to you that you mentioned in your back-story.

Cool, no problem. If you do use cross-bow I do submit to the rules on pg 195 of the core that you can shoot from the prone with no penalty. I know they came out with a feat for that in UC, but I think it was an oversight or for fire-arms specificly.
Would you consider allowing psionics from Dreamscarred Press?
Well got my feats and my exotic weapon (Kama, double chained) I'm going with the two weapon fighter archetype probably. Can I take the Cornugeon feats? since I was thinking of taking them.
I'd like to apply with an Inquisitor, whose all about hunting down those who get in the way of prophecy.
Just realized I can take more than one archetype if it does not replace or alter the same class features. I think I will add on the Kensai archetype if that's OK with you Nimon - so I'll be a Kensai, Blade Bound Magus if you are agreeable =).
Also, I think I have an avatar picture that you are using for one of your characters. If you'd like, I can change it.

I understand. I just meant that instead of a half-elf, the character would be a pure blood human. I originally went with half-elf because her family was fairly isolated unto itself as half-elves, but pure-blood humans would work just as well, if not better, as a motivation for that isolation.
Ah that's a good avatar for a Catholic Inquisitor. The changes are complete. It was hard to swallow the reduced spell-casting, but I decided pearls of power can alleviate some of the pain ;).
I'm thinking of taking the Fate Inquisition and possibly the Heretic Archetype. Thoughts??

Hmmm... Not too sure about Inquisitors and I'm about to hit the sack. You may have already seen it, but here is a good Inquisitor Guide . It doesn't talk about the Archetypes though =( If anything, I'd pick a role/play style you'd want to fill and pick archetypes that enhance it.

Oh, ok. Sounds good then.
Looks like the roll call is:
Evenor the Fatetouched (Keddah)---Wizard
Xara (Nazard)-------------------------Summoner
Jazismus Kanon (Lost Gamer)-------Bard
Belros Verzar (Deiros)----------------Fighter
Xideus Delorne (Me)-----------------------------------Magus
Pending:
Monkeygod---------------------------------------------Inquisitor
I'm guessing we are waiting on a sixth character? Probably a divine-type.

Inquisitor is divine but we have a buttload of arcane I can switch to something divine like a cleric or an oracle of battle if need be I suppose. Sine I'm going for the typical fighter tripper/two weapon fighting ^^

LoL you got that right. Arcane out the wazoo, and with the prospect of going to the mana wastes... ouch. I wasn't sure if Monkeygod was still around, so waiting on a divine character would include waiting on him ;) Ooh yeah, the battle oracle is amazing at combat maneuvers. What is a typical two weapon fighting/tripper? I've always seen the reach-weapon tripper, but not a two-weapon one. Or were you being sarcastic? hehe.
