The annual Tournament of Gorum is taking place and you have been selected as a participate will you accept?

I'm going to start up a tournament style PbP which pits players against one another. This is my first time GMing ever and i wanted to start off with something easy on me. Instead of designing encounters you will be in a 30x30 ft. arena. If you are moved out of the square you lose. If you fly higher than 30 ft. you are counted as knocked out of the ring. If you are flying above the normal "out" area you are considered out of the ring. You can knock people out of the ring however if you do this twice in a row the crowd will be one step lower in your next match. That's right I will be using the crowd ruled found in UC, massive crowd.
This PbP will be Level 7, 25 Point Buy, 23,500 Gold, all classes, Core Races and some featured races only (will post accepted featured races later). Only books that will be used in character creation are CRB, APG, ARG, UC, UM and UE
Looking for 8 players PM me applications and post in the recruitment thread, if I get more than 8 applications I will open it up to 16 players. No third party or guns, other than that any class/archetype is acceptable. Short back story would be liked. If I get more than 8 people but less than 16 before September 29th I will fill up the remainder with DMPC's.
All featured races, except these two, are allowed in this campaign:
Oh, oh crap I just noticed something... 30x30ft. isn't all too big of a square in pathfinder terms... I meant 30 squares by 30 squares (a.k.a 150ft.x150ft.).
I'm definitely interested. I'll PM you my build later this evening (or tomorrow at the latest). So I'm clear, none of the companion books (like Dungeons of Golarion) are allowed?
Didn't think of the companion books as I haven't worked with many of them... the companion books are allowed just mark in your character sheet what is companion. As for traits you can have two traits and they can be of the same category *gasp* yes you can have two combat traits.
Wow, this is going to get interesting. Like I said, I'll PM you my guy sometime tonight or tomorrow.
I'm interested, and dotting... I will work up a char and get back to you in the next day or 2
This intrigues me and I have a basic character in mind. I'll flush him out over the next few days and send him your way.
We start Sept. 29th. Right now I only have 3 people signed up so if no one else signs up I will put in a DMPC to make it a 4 person tourney.
As for HP, you can roll here or take the standard PFS (half hd+1) which ever is higher.
This game looks like it could be really fun, If you are still looking for a player, and don't mind the fact that I am rather new to PBP format games. I would be happy to write up a character if you'd have me.
I'm still looking for five people... So far the only people who have pm'd me are those who have posted in this recruitment thread.
How long are you going to leave recruitment open?
Until I get 8 people or Sept. 29th. I now have 4 people however I can't get in contact with one of them so I am essentially back down to 3. If it does turn into a 4 person thing then it will be a 4 person tourney.
Players Accepted:
Azoth - Krash4031
Dakar the Ugly - Whack-a-Rogue
Arsok - Ahk Goblin Ninja
If no one else appears I will make a DMPC, and he will be a rip off of a beloved anime character.
Recruitment will end at 2:00 p.m. Eastern.
Funnily enough, the character I'm submitting is a rip off of a Not-So-Beloved anime character, I'll PM it shortly. Just a note though, it has one piece of third party material, but considering it's from The Giant I think it'll be okay...
hey I thought I would try but am not very good at this kind of thing.
how are we doing HP?
HP=Max at first level then Half Hit Die +1 for every level after the first.
EXAMPLE: If your Hit Die is 6 then at level 2 you have 6 + 3 (half hit die) + 1 health (include Con/Favored Class Bonuses as necessary)
Sure, I'll bite. I've always been too late for these PvP tourney's in the past.
PFS standard, so d6 = 4HP, d8 = 5HP, d10 = 6HP, d12 = 7HP.
This is the PFS that I have... So my math (sorry for it being wrong before) is actually (same example) 6 + 4 + Con + Favored Class
TABLE 2–2: HIT POINTS BY CLASS
Class Hit Dice | Hit Points at 1st Level | Hit Points Gained per Level
Sorcerer, witch, wizard d6 | 6 | 4
Alchemist, bard, cleric, druid, inquisitor, magus, monk, ninja, oracle, rogue, summoner d8 | 8 | 5
Cavalier, fighter, gunslinger, paladin, ranger, samurai d10 | 10 | 6
Barbarian d12 | 12 | 7
Why don't the spaces work when it is posted??
Traits, do we get them and if so how many?
Just tried to get onto the sheets posted in the campaign info but it looks like they aren't public. Could we get this fixed?
2 Traits, and I'll fix the sheets.
EDIT: The links should work now.
Oh and I allowed a third party material that allows a person to use a wand through their weapon at +100 G to the weapon cost, if anyone would like to change their character sheet to incorporate this you may.
100 gold?
can you attack with the weapon and activate the wand in the same action?
It was never intended for that. Allowing that would be WAY more powerful than the spell storing ability, which costs a whole +1 bonus on a weapon. All this does is allow you to use a wand without having to change what you're holding over and over again.
Right now it looks like I have 6 people, which means 2 DMPC's for the bracket's ease. I promise that they wont be any more powerful than what your characters can be at this level.
Can we get a PM when the thread is ready?
After making this character i already have an idea for the next tourny
@Krash Sure!
@Edward I'll try to do this every year at the same time.
