This is open recruitment for #1-06 (Lost on the Spirit Road), a tier 1-4, repeatable scenario.
1. One seat is reserved for MadScientistWorking, and that character will decide the preferred tier. Open recruitment is for 5 seats.
2. Posting expectations are 1 post/weekday and 1 post/weekend. However, a major US holiday is coming up, and I won't mind too much if posting is slow until January.
3. I intend for this game to be completed before Outpost IV, which begins mid-February. However, I can't guarantee it.
4. This is a repeatable scenario, which means a player can repeat it, but a character can't.
5. Recruitment will be somewhat fluid. I will keep recruitment open for at least 48 hours (Sunday), and everyone who applies will be treated as if they had applied simultaneously. Assuming MadScientistWorking chimes in, I'll ask them to select the preferred tier. Feel free to submit multiple characters for consideration.
6. Priority will be given to players who have not played this scenario before.
To apply, please post in this thread with:
Player Name
Character Name
Whether you've played this scenario before with another character
Your character's new year resolution
|
1. Quirk
2. Arlo of the Solemn Towers, or perhaps Myra if low tier is chosen
3. This is one I missed back in days of yore when we could play live and in person locally. I'd love to take a shot at it.
4. Arlo would like to try some of his exotic grilling recipes he observed in Bhopan. With a little practice, he may become quite good at it!

Player Name Sedoriku
Character Name Dekellin Inazuma (name will likely change this is a place holder for the time being)
Whether you've played this scenario before with another character Yes, had a goblin champion who enjoyed getting tossed around by a giant tree.
Your character's new year resolution She'd want to explore more and perfect her craft, though I'm still unsure what her craft is.
Inazuma (I'm fairly sure I'll keep this part of the name) is a new tengu witch I've got most of the mechanics together for, but still am contemplating where they come from and who they are. I can have a character sheet together in the next day or two.

Player Name: TheSuperDodo
Character Name: "Lucky" Lucky Waterfield
Have you played this scenario before with another character? I have not, I am new to 2nd Edition PFS.
Your character's new year resolution: Work hard to make enough money to buy his sister out of slavery, and kick as many Chelish butts as possible.

Player Name Pirate Rob
Character Name Snarlfist
Whether you've played this scenario before with another character I have both played and GMed this several times before.
Your character's new year resolution Snarlfist resolve to actually pay attention to Kreighton Shaine's' lectures.
I can field two characters, depending on tier. One level 3 Cleric, and a level 2 Ranger.
Player Name Quentin Coldwater
Character Name Either Arlo Rumble (Cleric) (maybe awkward with other Arlo above), or Larrathion (Ranger)
Whether you've played this scenario before with another character Nope, new to me.
Your character's new year resolution
Arlo: To see more new places than last year.
Larrathion: Hopefully being bothered less by the Society, I prefer to be left alone.

Player Name: Witch's Knight
Character Name: Ulf Ormyrson
Whether you've played this scenario before with another character: No
Your character's New Year resolution: Last year, Ulf resolved to win half the drinking contests he got in; unfortunately, he can't remember most of them, so isn't sure how his record stands. So, this year, his resolution is to remember half the drinking contests he gets in. He's pretty sure that's a good goal.

Player: rainzax
Character: Lough (Fighter / Witch 3)
Whether: multiple / both
Lough does not celebrate within the confines of Absalom Reckoning, instead he attunes to the subtle rhythms of the natural seasons. The "new year" as you call it co-incides with what is effectively the height of winter, which happens to be his favorite season, for in winter, all living things revert to their most base form and function, which to the animal consciousness is pure instinct and survival, to which the sentient aspects of the mind warp themselves to seek justification for existence, creating fantastic waves of cerebral activity that establish patterns of behavior that desperately seek internal consistency.
To that end, Lough has "resolved" to lay down his Sword... and pick up a Hammer! While the former seeks to penetrate deeper truths by shear edge - in a word, to meld with it's object - the latter, by contrast, seeks to demolish those truths by blunt force - or to meld it's object to itself.
By reframing the power dynamic of his unknown Matron, Lough seeks to not Follow in dance, but Lead!

Player Name Karankwan
Character Name Yanko Tiriac (Dhampir Bones Oracle 2)
Whether you've played this scenario before with another character Yes, played it once before.
His prayers are unanswered for decades now, but Yanko still hopes with every year passing by that the new year will grant him redemption or at least acceptance for the path he's chosen. If he can prove himself worthy by ushering the soulless by granting them a brief existence of undeath, for them to redeem themselves and shake the stigma of eternal evil, he surely must be worthy to usher the souls in Mother Vultures domain...
I can field two characters, depending on tier. One level 3 Cleric, and a level 2 Ranger.
Player Name Quentin Coldwater
Character Name Either Arlo Rumble (Cleric) (maybe awkward with other Arlo above), or Larrathion (Ranger)
Whether you've played this scenario before with another character Nope, new to me.
Your character's new year resolution
Arlo: To see more new places than last year.
Larrathion: Hopefully being bothered less by the Society, I prefer to be left alone.
Oop, nevermind, I did play this one already. I'll withdraw.
Sorry for the delay but I have two characters I would play:
Player Name: Adam
Miriam: Level 3 Halfling
Mastermind Witch Rogue
New Years Resolution: Visit Ydajisk's Library in the Malestrom or learn every language possible. Admittedly, she may have learned every language possible at this point I'm not sure.
Lynn: Level 1 Half Elf
Level 1 Cleric of Irori
New Year's Resolution: Make a better museum than the Blakros with less death.
So far:
Miriam Rogue 3
or
Lynn Cleric 1
plus from New / High Priority:
Arlo of the Solemn Towers Wizard 3
"Lucky" Lucky Waterfield Bard 1
Ulf Ormyrson Fighter 1
Erevan Dalanthan. Alchemist 2
plus maybe from Old / Low Priority:
Dekellin Inazuma Tengu 1
Snarlfist Rogue 2
Pepper Fullbranch Ranger 1
Lough Fighter 3
Yanko Tiriac Oracle 2
I think that was it - I'm thinking about running a second table. I'm on my phone but will make a final decision tomorrow. Tentatively, first table would be level 1s, plus Erevan. Second table would be the level 3s plus the rest of the level 2s (4-handed, 5-handed if MadScientistWorking wants to play both characters). I'd stagger by a week or two (also, Arlo getting delayed will work better for his schedule).

Okay, I finalized a name for Dyner (formerly Dekellin) and have a solid idea of her new year's resolution.
Your character's new year resolution (redux) Figure out what that spicy dish of meat and vegetables, 'Kaw-Ray'?, is and how to make it in addition to finding more spices she can use in her cooking.
Also she's a witch, an icy winter witch.

Player Name: Wei Ji The Learner
Character Name: 'The' Commedienne
Played Previously: Yes. Hark, the Healbold made 'First Contact' with denizens of the Spirit Road when everyone else in the team was too chicken to do so.
Your character's new year resolution: Get lost. No, seriously, she's no stranger to the wilds and the comedic value of a hundred different antics of being lost will be stage material for years to come.
"It's really, really hard to travel around alone as a trueblood. Everyone wants to take advantage of you and assumes you'll just fall all over to kiss their butts. WELL! I wasn't gonna take any of that, and when I was on the road I encountered a happy fat no-scale who was more than willing to share a meal, and their camp -- and then I found out that they were better at jokes and pranks than I was when I woke up in the morning."
"It became a game between the two of us, pranking, telling jokes, travelling. Wasn't for a month or two that the no-scale opened up, mentioned that he was a follower of The Laughing God, and I'd done more to make him laugh in that time than he'd laughed in months prior."
"Of course, I called him on it. Guy -- yeah, that was his name -- was too happy to be that angry or sad for that long. He showed me how to do sketches, jokes, timing, all that stuff -- and be darned if he didn't sneak in religious lessons in there too as he was doing it."
"Then we got jumped by the wargs. They were going to eat us for sure, but they'd been following us and told us that they wouldn't eat us if we made them laugh. Folks who don't follow the Laughing God would've probably cried a bit inside. Me an' Guy, we put on the performance of our lives, talking at great length about how wonderful it'd be to be eaten by apex predators and what it'd feel like and we definitely didn't spare any details as we kept going darker and deeper --- I think we scared the wargs, who lost their appetite and ran for the hills. We could even hear them puking as they were running... at least, that's our best guess. I mean, it's not like they asked US about the meat we kept near our camp for predators to nom on or anything, right?"
