I'm in. Perhaps we could go back to the recruitment thread and look for another character to fill Aella's spot?

I'm in as well. So that would mean we at least have Halorr, O∂ørn, and A∂allbjørn. I think Helle also expressed interest in sticking with the group. Aella is out, so we just need to confirm Dvallar. I like the idea of going back to the original recruitment thread to find another person to fill one of those spots if needed. Otherwise, we could probably get by with a 4-5 person party.

I think the bigger problem may be the GM let's see what Dvallar and Helle have to say first.

True story. Since Helle is in at least, that puts us at 4, which should be enough to let any potential GMs know that we're not totally going out on a limb.

In my opinion, it might be a good time for us to put up the replacement GM thread. There's also an existing thread here for picking up people for APs, and I've seen people searching for GMs there as well. I'll put a post in there with a link to the gameplay thread so GMs can see us in action with our RP. Does that sound like a good plan to everyone?

Yeh, I think that's the way forward. I PM'd a GM that was in the recruitment thread, he wishes us well but has too many games on right now. I think we should ask for a general norsk style campaoing, specifically northland's might be a bit niche.

Aella here... As Aðalbjörn said I'm out because I'm preparing myself to GM another game.

I could GM this adventure for you but I do not have the PDF and it costs $50... also I'm from Brazil and thanks to our s$$%ty president the US dollar conversion to R$ is 4 so it would cost for me an equivalent of $200!
Male Human ranger (guide) 1 | HP: 11/11 | AC: 17 / T: 13 / FF: 14 | Fort: +3, Ref: +6, Will: +1 | M. Atk: +3, R. Atk: +5 | CMB: +3, CMD: 17 | Init: +6, Perception: +5

I have the PDF, as I've seriously considered running it myself. The lore just sucked me in and I find those few gameplay posts were a bit of a tease.
I'm currently GMing a PFS scenario as well as taking part in four other games, so I am not sure I have enough time to keep up with its demands right now. I may, however, have some time once some of the games finish. This is assuming we can't find another GM before that happens.

I like the Norse aspect of the game. Dvallar is built around contrasting Norse culture. If someone is thinking about running a Norse game, I'd be very interested. Just sticking this highly specific character into a generic Golarion setting so I can get to play her doesn't interest me as much.

If you are seeking a GM, might be easier if I dropped out. I doubt you'll find someone willing to GM a Norse game.

:(

Yeah, that's part of the reason I suggested Reign of Winter. A large part of the AP takes place in Irrisen (or so I've been led to believe), which, alongside Land of the Linnorm Kings, has a very Norse feel about it. Reading the players guide, it looks like there would be a lot of opportunities to encounter new and unfamiliar cultures, so I think it might still tick that box for you, Dvallar. I think RoW might be the next best thing for the group given the various reasons we all applied for this campaign in the first place, but if anybody feels like I've got it wrong, I'd love to know what you all would like to do. I really just want the group to be able to stick together as much as possible.

I'd suggest giving the potential GM a choice of this or Reign of Winter. Maybe there is someone out there who's interested in running a Norse game, but hadn't gotten around to putting up the recruitment post.

Alright, folks. I've posted in the general application thread and created a new campaign thread to recruit our new GM. Time to start crossing those fingers.

Hey Seth! Thanks for jumping in.
So Seth is taking a look at stepping in as a new GM for us! I recommended that he pop in here to chat with everyone about their hopes/expectations for running a campaign for us. We can also tell him a little about our own play styles and what not so he can get an idea of what we're like as a group.

Oh wow, fantastic, thank you for your consideration. What do you want to know? Those of us left are pretty keen to keep this game alive, I think we all really enjoyed putting our characters together and would hate to see them scraped or shoehorned into a generic campaign. We were thinking we could recruit any other players we needed from the original recruitment thread, depending on what you thought. A

Yup, Camp Fire time!

edit:

For now, let's keep it as it is. Still need to decide what i plan on doing with you lot :P and if i actually can GM for you.
I have a plan in my head, but thats just cause i love RP and these things happen all to often. Usually before i even join a game, i have more than a few characters in my head :P

As a side note, need to at least let people know, my TZ is GMT+2

I'm glad to hear you're considering GMing for us. The time difference is fine with me!
I'm just happy we (potentially) don't have to throw away the hard work we've put into our characters and character relationships.

I should probably have mentioned that too. I'm GMT-4 (Toronto) and, at least currently, I've been checking on these forums way more frequently than I like to admit...

Okay, so if we do continue with the NSS, i can prob finish with book 1, then if you guys are keen, i can maybe go off on a story of own design?

I'm so happy that you are considering our group.

I'm GMT +7 (Seattle). I check the boards during the day from work, and can keep to at least a post a day more if things are moving along.

I'm rather new to PbP. It helps scratch the I want to play RPGs itch without the required time block of sitting down to play.
Male Human Aquatic Druid (Water domain) 1 | HP: 14/14 | AC:16, T:11, FF:15, CMD:12 | F:+5, R:+1, W:+5 | Init:+1, Perception:+7 | Status: Normal

Yeah I'm GMT -7 (Denver). I'm in the same boat as Helle basically. Can usually post from work during the day so posting once/day or more if things are slow isn't a problem.

I'm definitely okay with sticking to the AP through book 1 then doing a bit of homebrew. I just like the Norse themes so as long as it stays in that same wheelhouse I'm good.

Just as a note you might update your initial post in the recruitment thread, I was about to respond to it and then thought to check your discussion thread here and noted you found Seth. Just a thought. Good luck everyone.

Thanks Pirate! I will definitely update that once we figure out 100% if Seth is sticking with us. If he isn't able to stick around, would you mind if I PM you?

GMT +11 here.
I am very keen on the Norse themes. It's quite different to the 'standard' fantasy campaign.

Ain't that the truth!

I'm more than happy to move on to some homebrew after book 1, I find it allows more freedom if its done well.

Okay, i see you guys are in book 0? i have book 1... need to find 0 first and see if i can do this thing :P

I can't speak for the others but I'm not tied to book 0, just the theme and the characters really.

Happy easter weekend y'all hope the weathers nicer fur you than it is for us right now.

Ideally, I'd like to continue with Book 0, but I'm not against anything Norse in general.

Same to you, Aðalbjörn. Lots of rain incoming where I am, and cooler temps to boot...

Okay. Need to read book 1. When i have an atleast OK grasp on it. I will see and then let you guys be ready. Will try finish your current mission. Then take it from there

Will try to complete the mission you have been sent on, then fast fwd to book 1? is that okay?

Thank You!

How does it work from here? Do you 'take over' here or is a new campaign started?

Also (sorry for all the questions) I don't know how much, if anything, here was homebrewed, do all the character options stand?

Also... Thank You!

Won't change your characters. =^^= i will get to learn them. I have an idea for something i want to add, in case we go to "homebrew" after bookl

I will try to continue at least the current quest, then we will move to book1.

Hello,

I'm sorry to interrupt and bother you.

I recently saw that you were requesting a new GM (which, fortunately, you have found) and also claimed that some players had also dropped from the game.

I then wondered if there'd still be room for one more player who enjoys a lot these nordic sagas and would be very happy to join.

Of course I understand the game is already running, and you might find yourselves not wanting to add a new one; that's perfectly acceptable.

I already asked the GM and he told me to ask you all(nice of him); I tried in the Recruitment thread but you might have overlooked it.

In case you all agree, I could fill whichever role you feel you are in need of (though, to be honest, I had a stabbing roguish warrior in mind).

Thank you for your attention and may you drink a lot of mjød :)

That sounds good to me! More stabby people is never a problem as far as I'm concerned. Haha

I'm happy, if Gm and others are happy, I know Seth said he was happy to go on as we were but I didnt know if that was the imperative. Your welcome on our jolly stroll as far as I'm concerned.

Not sure how a stabby rogue would fit with the honour bound societal nature of our group... But we can try!

Yes, I've read everything. As I said before, my idea was not threading on anyone's niche, that's why.
But that'll be only if you all agree, of course.

Anyway, I take the silence of the remaining players as a way to express disconformity, which is expectable and acceptable.

Couple of questions...

Your back story, were you raised as Olaf's son? In halfstead? So would most of us recognise you?
