Interested.
Who do I have in range and not in a game, currently?
Chuurock Bin Ausk, Ossirian half-orc Cleric of Pharasma 4.
Thearor Leafsplitter, Scarzani half-elf Power-Attack-based Fighter 2
(In a game) The Great Swarmholio
Carrel Firth, Grand Lodge half-elf chronicler-bound Rogue 1
Unidentifed rebuild (thinking about a Swashbuckler or Slayer)
Something new with no experience at all . . ..
Chuurock, Swarmholio and Carrel have all had their profiles updated for use in PBP. The others will just take a little time for me to type in.
Flurber Monkey |
Necrotizing barbarian presents:
Flurber Monkey
A Goblin Monk
(see profile for more info)
Found as a toddler by a human monk, the human took in the Goblin and raised him, calling him Monkey, and the first words the Monkey could say was Flurber, So the kind old monk named him
Flurber Monkey.
Flurber monkey has studied hard under the Old monk to learn the ways and calm his chaotic mind. Although he still battles with his nature Flurber Monkey has taken a vow to stay away from fire, and never bite anyone.
As for equipment, i will figure that stuff out later, probably just traveling provisions and that kinda sort He will be an unarmed striker type.

I don't keep a character in the stable that I don't want to play. That's why I have a pending rebuild, actually, because I just didn't enjoy the character I had tried.
I am a firm believer in the social contract of public gaming, and PBP is most certainly public. We all "come to the table" with the responsibility of trying to help everyone else enjoy themselves. Some people do a better job of this than others, certainly. I have character concepts that I won't impose on a table unless they express a desire to have THAT CHARACTER join them (The Great Swarmholio is the worst current example - as a Great Cornholio rip-off he teeters back and forth across the line between funny and annoying, and I'm never quite sure which side he's on until I get reactions).
Now since you want to run at the lower Tier, Chuurock really doesn't fit.
Thearor is a non-social sociopath who works for the Pathfinders because they WANT him to break things and people on a regular basis. He could have been Aspis consortium just as easily, because both need his kind of muscle, though the Pathfinders claim they don't.
Swarmholio is currently otherwise occupied.
Carrel is uncertain of his own capabilities in the field, yet, but he is easy to get along with and tries to keep the team focused on the Pathfinder Society's business. He is a beginner, certainly, but he is a professional tomb robber and gentleman.
I do not understand why offering the other players a chance to choose between which persona they will have to put up with for several weeks of player time is considered inappropriate. It is part of marshaling tables at any large event. Certainly, some people negotiate with "I play X". They land with people who need an X or who get the leftovers.
Teaching people that this is the right way to marshal tables teaches them to ignore the social contract before ever sitting down at a table. That IS inappropriate.
Thaurux |
Having barely survived the dangers of the Fallen Fortress (1PP Adventure), Thaurux sets out to find another opportunity for glory and more importantly the meaning of his recurring dreams. His injured leg has recovered but he remains scared in a strange manner as if something lay dormant within the wound.
After several failed employment negotiations he is beginning to wonder if the stench of the Troglodytes he has slain has stayed around. His usual approach of letting his glistening muscles and appearance do the work may require some refinement.
Orri Björnsson |
Here is my Submission,Stats in profile PF #73135-4
Orri did just this at the age of 17. Breaking the neck of a large snow tiger, the young Ulfen entered full manhood. Not content to wrestle his peers any longer, yet not powerful enough to down a troll he struck out on his own to challenge all he would pass. Racking up victories and making friends around the Inner Sea soon lead him to head over the top of the world with a caravan heading out of Taldor. It was as they made into the Lands of the Mammoth Lords, Orri would make a name for himself.
As luck would have it his group came across an embattled group of Kellid warriors beset by a demon most foul. It was then revealed that this caravan consisted of members of the Silver Crusade looking for such an event. Not to be left in the cart Orri donned his tiger mask rushing forward ahead of his armored allies. A furious battle ensued with several of the Kellids lying mortally wounded at his feet Orri made his move. Leaping high into the air he slammed both feet into the devil crushing its defenses just as the great sword of a mighty paladin descended upon its now open neck.
With the demon dispatched and the tribesmen tended to, the Ulfen turned to his companions and was met with admiration and sponsorship into the Silver Crusade as a token of their appreciation and goodly acts. The large man willingly accepted for he knew of the evils in his own homeland he would soon face. But, for now the mysteries of the east and their fabled martial skills awaited him. With his gaze cast to the mountain range before him a grand smile broke across his face. Mysteries indeed.
