Welcome! So my last Magic-inspired campaign didn't do all that well, and I'm ready to try my hand at redemption.
So! The important parts:
It is with utmost regret that I must report the death, and most likely murder, of Senator Platicar IV. There is currently an investigation into his untimely death, and it has been recommended to me on the basis of your talents that I trust you with part of the investigation into the events surrounding his death.
Therefore, it is with the highest of honors and expectations that I hereby offer you the position of Investigator, as well as all of the benefits and responsibilities of said position.
Normally the Azorius Senate would not simply promote someone like this, but desperate times call for desperate measures.
Should you accept the burden of this new mantle, report to Arrester Lavinia at the break of dawn tomorrow morning. She will start you along the path of investigation.
For the Senate,
Supreme Judge Isperia"
And with that, the fun begins! Onto the details. Looking to run an investigation campaign, starting with a murder plot and twisting down into a dark plot which threatens to destroy Ravnica, as always!
Themes: crime, murder, horror, investigation, and a few more.
While there will be a healthy amount of combat, I want to primarily focus on telling the best story we can together. And, as such, each character needs to have at least a partly fleshed out background, complete with connections to the world of Ravnica. If you're looking for the campaign to try out that overpowered one shot unbeatable build, this is not it.
To help you, I've gotten together a list of questions I think may point you in the right direction.
2. What is your characters' history? Where did they come from? Who are their parents? What guild do their parents belong to? Are they still alive? What friends do you have? Enemies? Rivals? What do your Guildmates think of you? Do they admire you or hate you? Any other connections to the other members of the plane of Ravnica?
3. What does your character look like? Is there some identifying feature they have? Wounds from previous fights/altercations, anything? This extends to clothing as well. In some guilds, clothing is everything. How does your character tend to dress?
4. Where does your character live? A person's house says a lot about them, and that is no truer anywhere than on Ravnica. Do you live with your guildmembers? Have your own house with your family, or perhaps you're married and have children? Are any of them in guilds? All of these are important details to know.
5. Why did your character get recommended for the investigation team? Your talents obviously demonstrated you were prepared for this assignment. Why? What have you accomplished already? What do you aim to accomplish?
Ability scores: 20 point buy, none above an 18 to begin with.
Guild choices: You will be required to one of the guilds to originate from, although you do not have to be the perfect member of said guild. The choices are Azorius, Boros, Orzhov, Izzet, Simic, and Selesnya. Golgari, Rakdos, Gruul, and Dimir are tentatively off limits, unless you can convince me with otherwise a wonderful story.
Races: from Pathfinder: dwarves, humans, half-elves, elves, dhampir, goblin, nagaji (flavored as Viashino), aasimars and tieflings. Specific to Ravnica: see Races below. Any other Pathfinder races on a case by case basis, on flavor alone.
Alignment: any but CE. I don't need any in-party fighting, thanks.
Wealth: 10,500. No one item above 5,250 gp.
Classes: all but Antipaladin. They have to fit inside of the world as it relates to your character however.
I'll be keeping this recruitment open for two weeks, up until May 13th, or possibly before if I find the PCs I think would be perfect. If I do decide to cut it short, I'll let everyone know before I do.
I think I managed to cover everything I needed to cover. Feel free to ask any questions you have!
Oops! Forgot the extra Ravnica races converted to Pathfinder. Editing now!
I'm a dot this, because I love me some Ravnica.
I will also dot. I'm curious as to your disallowal of Dimir, as House Dimir is absolutely my favorite, and would of course be a perfect fit for a rogue-ish character of investigation.
Evidence:
As well, Lazav is a master of secrets, who better to aid in an investigation than the house that has all the knowledge?
In fact, even Isperia might not be able to see through the guild's numerous levels of subterfuge to know that the character in question is actually loyal to House Dimir rather than being guildless.
I agree Rakdos and Gruul tend to not be so much in the aspects you're looking for, especially Rakdos with Azorius, but House Dimir fits your themes perfectly.
There are a handful of other races in Ravnica that are available to be played outside of the core races. Here's their details!

Evidence: ** spoiler omitted **
I agree Rakdos and Gruul tend to not be so much in the aspects you're looking for, especially Rakdos with Azorius, but House Dimir fits your themes perfectly.
I am mainly disallowing Dimir because I am aiming at the time period of Ravica in which the Dimir are not widely known within the normal people.
The Azorius would not invite a Dimir agent to a personal investigation.
Of course, there is always the "Dimir agent inside another guild" angle, but can you convince me they wouldn't turn on the party given the chance? I don't want that at all.

Interested as well, love Ravinca, one of my favorite planes.
Out of sheer curiosity, would you consider gestalt? My brother and I had a discussion about designing 'iconic' guild members for each guild, and we decided gestalt was the best way to handle the intricate and oft times complex members of the guilds.
Unfortunately I think I’ll be saying no to gestalt, if only because I’ve never run a campaign with gestalt, and would like to get a sizable one under my belt before I jumped in the deep end.
I'd be interested in playing this.

The Piazo site is acting weird right now. I'll make an alias once it starts cooperating!
Thomus is part of the Izzet League. He believes that was created by a high ranking member of the League named Parmon List. Parmon told Thomus that he was created as a guard against the people out to get Parmon. (In truth Parmon is suffering from early stage dementia and has created Thomas from his old lab assistant.)
I'll flesh out the background a bit more in the next few days. Let me know if there are any problems!
Oooooh, Dhampir as a reanimated corpse is a nice touch! I like it!
I had an idea for an Azorius or Orzohov enchantment sorcerer, someone that really is feared for how exacting he is from people he's interrogating. Does that sound like something that would fit? That, or I had an idea for a Simic experiment character using the mutation adding spells with Synthesist Summoner, which I'm happy to nerf if you need!
Both of those sound very workable, actually. Although the Azorius sorcerer would fit the campaign the best.
Whichever you’d enjoy most, I suppose.
I may do a psychic for those sick nasty intrigue points. Also because reading thoughts is great.
Dotting. Thinking about a dwarven doctor running a free clinic with Selesnyan or maybe Simic backing.
Here is Thomas' alias (originally posted as Speaker for the Dead). A couple questions, what languages are you using? I've got 3 language slots for Thomas and one for the black blade (it gains a bonus language of the GM’s choice).
Also each black blade has a mission. (From PFSRD), "The blade typically works toward its wielder’s goals, but not always without argument or backlash. Each black blade has a mission... each mission is singular in purpose (the black blade’s mission is usually up to the GM and the needs of the campaign or the adventure, or a GM can determine the weapon’s purpose randomly using Table: Intelligent Item Purpose). Some black blades are very open about their missions, but most are secretive."
Do you want to deal with this or would you prefer me figure something out? I would go with something about solving mysteries but whatever works for the campaign is fine with me.
I'm also debating a Boros Paladin of some sort. Combat is rough for psychics and enchantment sorcerers sometimes.

As for languages, there is obviously Common, and then the four Elemental languages (Ignan, etc), as well as the planar ones (Celestial, etc). And then there are a handful of racial languages, such as Goblin, Giant, and Sylvan. Druidic is restricted to Druids and other fey creatures. If there are any you have questions about, feel free to ask about those specifically.
And for your blackblade’s mission, I definitely want to work together on that, so as to accurately relate it to both your character and the story I want to tell.
Feel free to DM me some of your ideas, and we’ll work from there!
Some general questions about character creation.
This probably won't matter for my character, but may for others: when you say "[no ability] above an 18 to begin with" do you mean before or after racial modifiers?
How should we handle Hit Points: are we doing full at first, half+1 thereafter; full at first, roll thereafter; full at every level; etc?
Are we using the Fractional Base Bonuses system for multiclassing introduced in Pathfinder Unchained, or the original system?
Dwarves have six listed bonus languages they can select for high Intelligence, but three of these (Gnome, Orc, and Undercommon) don't seem applicable to this setting. Can you confirm if all three of these languages are not valid for the setting, and if so, are there any valid languages you'd allow to be learned for high Intelligence by a Dwarf in place of these languages?
Less a question than a request, but would you consider using the Background Skills variant system? It basically makes it a little easier to invest skill points into purely non-combat skills by giving you a couple extra skill points that can only be used as such.

To answer your questions in order:
1. Full HP at each level. You're tough enough to have gotten the attention of high ranking Azorius, and have the health to show that.
2. Hadn't checked any extra systems we would be using actually. For this one specifically, I'd prefer to keep the base systems.
3. Undercommon is applicable, actually, as the language of the things that live below the surface. Mainly Golgari related stuff, but some other Guildless or monsters use it. Orc and Gnome are unfortunately not relevant, but I think it's best if we just ignore the race limits on languages. You may select from any language in the setting except Druidic.
4. Ah! That's actually something I missed. Yeah, go ahead and use the background skill alternate ruleset. Just be sure to let me know which skills have background ranks, to get an idea of who your character is.
New question.
Can we perform crafting during character creation? Craft (Alchemy) stands to save me a fair bit, if permissible. And if so, what DCs are permissible? I assume anything Take 10 or lower would be, but I don't know about higher DCs.
In the same vein, could a Wizard buy scrolls and roll Spellcraft to copy them into his spellbook? Thinking of taking at least one level of Alchemist, and it'd be nice if I could expand my Formula Book.
https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=1898323
Okay! Sheet done! Backstory is in there too.
I didn't even fully read the background for the campaign, but I gave it a once-over and was pleased to find everything I wrote was surprisingly relevant!

I think both crafting and the spellbook thing are perfectly fine, for sure.
I just want your crafting skills reflected in your background and character, is all.
Alright, so submissions. I'm going to disclaim here that this is a rather unconventional build, mechanically, but not so much I think as to harm the balance of the game or anything. Just, you know, keep an open mind, reading it.

Gil is part of the Selesnya Conclave. In many respects, she seems a stereotypical member. She runs a clinic funded entirely by donations and a modest stipend from the guild, offering medicine and healing to all comers. She's quiet, professional, and hard working, and none can question her selflessness, putting everything she has into the clinic.
2. What is your characters' history?
Gil's parents were Simic biomancers. While they're still alive, she is estranged from them, believing the Simic Combine to be a deranged, dangerous organization. Part of what drove her to join Selesnya and her clinic was the perception that she owed society for the crime of growing up and learning medicine on Simic's dime. Being so focused on her work, Gil has made few friends, and kept fewer. She has no enemies, persay, but certainly rivals, especially among the many Simic physicians who see her as undercutting their business. To her guildmates, Gil is either an avatar of the altruism that Selesnya represents, or an overachieving tryhard making others look bad because they're not all willing to sacrifice everything at the alter of work.
3. What does your character look like?
Gil has a gaunt appearance, being thin even by Dwarven standards. She has black eyes, and short silver hair. On the job (which is almost all the time), she wears a forest green uniform of waxed leather and stylized porcelain mask with an elongated beak befitting her profession and guild affiliation. She wears a bandolier with a number of flasks filled with multicolor liquids, and carries several satchels. Off the job... she takes the mask off because it's not convenient to eat or drink while wearing.
4. Where does your character live?
Living at the clinic is a lot more convenient than wasting money on a home, or bunking at one of the guild buildings and wasting time commuting to the clinic. By living at the clinic, Gil can see patients all day every day, as necessary. There's enough room in the back office, if she pushes the chair in, to unfold a small cot meant for camping.
5. Why did your character get recommended for the investigation team?
Gil is particularly known for her ability as a doctor, being one of the few skilled physicians operating outside of the Simic Combine. And any murder investigation needs a competent coroner. Given her accessibility and strong work ethic (not to mention her considerably lower rats), she's probably done contract work as an expert for the Senate in the past. And that means she can be trusted.
O yes please, I really love this setting

I tried to include all requisite info in the backstory, let me know if something is unclear!
Sorry about that, busy Friday.
Your backstory looks good, love the personal connection to an Azorius member, not 100% sure if it should be Isperia just yet. You’re only level 5, so not exactly Isperia levels of usefulness yet, but we’ll figure that out as we go along.
As for equipment, I only saw the two magic items in your inventory. Is there some other section with the rest of your gear?
Considering putting together a Vedalken Inquisitor (Azorius of course).
Or maybe some sort of Boros Warpriest.
Both sound fine, for sure.

That's totally fine, I just need a stand-in for someone important, and it had to be someone frequently at the Senate. I'm open to suggestions!
I think Lavinia would make a perfect stand in for someone at the Senate, honestly.
She recommended you to Isperia, who trusted Lavinia’s word and by extension, you.

That works! :D I just didn't want to go with Lavinia right off the bat because you were using her for something. I'll edit it. And as for equipment, I'm a very social character, and we live in a city. Normally, I'd buy an adventurer's pack and torches or something, but I'm kind of torn on if I should do that because it doesn't make too much sense here. If you have any suggestions, I'm all ears!

Eh, I’m using her as the hook person to get you all together, her knowing and respecting your usefulness is perfectly appropriate.
I think you should probably have some sort of adventuring gear, like at the very least some bags and food or something. You aren’t a random useless noble, you have some value to Lavinia.
Added a bit of stuff!
Alright! So it’s been a week-ish, now, and just getting a list of applicants together.
Thomas of the Izzet League an Undead creation of a delirious Izzet scientist.
Alder Braun of the Azorius, an Azorius Lawmage sponsored by Lavinia herself.
Lady Lyrona Del Azeene Lady Azeene, an astute Azorius Investigator.
Ermengilda Sanz, a dwarven healing expert focused on making sure everyone is healthy and not dead. (Rotaretilbo hasn’t made an alias quite yet.)
And a couple of dotted ideas without a concrete idea.
This will be open for another week, so don’t panic, you have one turn of time!
I suppose it would be appropriate to make an alias, then.
Alright! So it’s been a week-ish, now, and just getting a list of applicants together.
Thomas of the Izzet League an Undead creation of a delirious Izzet scientist.
Did you get my DM re black blade special purpose?
Reminder to those who have dotted but not finished their submission, the deadline is this Monday. Just four days left!
dotting! I'm late, but I love Ravnica. I will post a submission sometime tonight or tomorrow.
You got until Monday, so take your time!
Gonna message some of the others who expressed interest to see if they're still working, too.
"Bored!"
"What?"
"I'm bored. As in I want something to do."
"Like what? Ever since father was sent to the 'old wizard’s home' there isn't much going on"
"What if he's in danger? Shouldn't we be protecting him?"
"He's not involved in clan business anymore and his son has control of his money. Why would anyone threaten him?"
"I don't know. What about his son? Maybe he's in danger."
"I'm not sure I care. He's seems like a greedy spoiled brat."
"You forgot puerile. Who cares? It would be something to relieve the unrelenting overwhelming boredom."
"How about a riddle? ’Alive without breath, As cold as death; Never thirsty, ever drinking, All in mail never clinking.'
"Fish"
"All right. How about, 'What is black when you buy it, red when you use it and grey when you throw it out?'
"Coal. Don't bother asking me riddles. I know every riddle you do. I taught you most of them!"
"Sorry, that's all I've got. Just hang on a little longer. We're supposed to be helping with investigating a murder."
"When?"
"A couple of days. As soon as they call for us I guess. Any time now."
"Bored!"
"This is going to be a long couple of days."
Reminder: tomorrow is the deadline! Around 24 hours left for any of you who want to apply!
Any last stragglers before I close the recruitment and take a look at the submissions?
Seems like it may just be the four of us submitting, then. A friend told me he was thinking of submitting a paladin or something, but I don't think he ever followed through on that. :(
Still, four is hopefully enough to run a game, and the resulting party doesn't seem too deficient.
Rotaretilbo brought me over to this thread. Throwing together a Dwarf High Guardian Fighter. Should have something done tonight or tomorrow.
I’ll start reviewing the other submissions while we wait for yours, then. Don’t want to leave someone out when we have four applicants!
This is Alfrazar. Crunch and quick backstory answering the questions. If I missed anything, just let me know and I'll update accordingly

Unassailable Allegiance
1. He belongs to Boros, and is of a soldier's mind. Take orders from your superiors and do your duty.
2. Born into a family of military tradition, with at least one member of his family every generation joining the Legion. For his generation, it was him. His father was not a member of the Legion but was introduced to it through his uncle.
The purpose given from being a soldier as well as being able to stop any that would oppose the Legion or his family was what drew him in. Being a part of a military family has its perks, with his uncle helping Galamand get into the Legion and rise
the ranks a bit faster. Galamand is not very well spoken, but to him actions speak louder than words. His terse and no non-sense attitude doesn't help him makes friends, but it at least helps him gain the trust of those he fights with. He always
had an affinity for protecting others, and this is even more true in his work as a member of the Legion.
3. Galamand can be found almost always in either his armor, or in his uniform. Even when he isn't wearing them, he tends to be well put together wearing simple well made clothes. His hair and beard are both a light brown. His beard is always well groomed and trimmed, using it partially
as a status symbol.
4. Galamand stays within his garrison.
5. Galamand was chosen to act as an escort and protector for the investigation team. As a practiced bodyguard for nobility, and those he is tasked to protect he was a natural choice for the investigation. His goal is to see the investigation to
completion, and if anyone were to be harmed or killed during it he would be distraught. He takes his duty above all, so far as to die for it.
Seems like it may just be the four of us submitting, then. A friend told me he was thinking of submitting a paladin or something, but I don't think he ever followed through on that. :(
Still, four is hopefully enough to run a game, and the resulting party doesn't seem too deficient.
“I don’t think he was counting you. Or anyone else’s sword for that matter.”
“What! That’s discrimination!”
“Discrimination? How is that discrimination?.”
“It discrimination against the otherwise embodied. Antiembodiment!”
“I’m sure he’ll be fine once he gets to know you.”
“Well I hope this investigation starts soon then.”
“Me too. You have no idea.”
