Thanks for applying folks, we are adding our 4th and 5th from:

Thanks very much. Sashaa I really liked where you were going with your character too!

UPDATE 4.0
Looking for a 5th player.
We are near the halfway point of Book One.
Please apply with a full 11th level character below.
We are using the Ancestry Paragon variant rule!

Assuming that my one campaign of this is dead, I'll submit lady Zhilan for consideration, may need to change one or two things though if need be. I'll likely change a few things to suite this new purpose.

Is the Sixth pillar archetype allowed?

Thanks for applying folks!

What do you want in the way of background?

Not sure what kind of time frame you are giving to finish the submission but I will see what I can come up with this weekend.

Let's say by Sunday night at midnight PDT!

I could make Sunday night happen ... so the party needs an arcane caster kind of?

Current roster is here (LINK)

Players,
Would you agree or disagree with Evindyl's question?

So, I'm the druid. We have a fighter, bard, and cleric. It's been fun but challenging so far.

I'm always a fan of "bring whomever you want" but if you want to bring arcane firepower you will find your niche.

A lightning-based sylph is what was in my head, like a 1-man air corps flying around distracting and blasting people, who would eventually have enough castable flytime to elevate some other team members as well.

(not sure if Cirri will develop her wings, but with Ancestry Paragon it's a LOT easier)

The Fantastic Flying Cirri is definitely planned as soon as I'm high level enough to pick the feat.

The Surprising Skywalking Sylph is almost ready ...

TEMPEST

As submitted, he has only spent 100gp on the trident and selected the other items for 11th level starting. Please let me know what else to add. Yes, there is a picture uploaded to Pathbuilder (or there was).

TEMPEST

Seishine Nomichi, presented as a potential combatant in the Ruby Phoenix Tournament.

I still have a bunch of formatting of the character sheet, but I wanted to get the meat done for you to review. I thought an alchemist with wizard dedication would fit in nicely.

Thanks for applying folks!

I noticed that you looked for reinforcements just now, darn it!

If ( i hope not) would need another wave of reinforcements I would likely join. I started creating Orc Magus lvl 11 with double-handed weapons.

Also, I have a couple of characters that I like:
- Ratfolk-tiefling Wizard illusionist - I've been playing him in Extinction curse AP (currently at lvl 12)
- Orc Wild Druid - I've been playing him in Abomination Vaults AP (currently at lvl 5).

If an opening creates please let me know

Farol, you mentioned wanting to build your PC towards party dynamics / needs:

Opening Recruitment for a new 5th!

One of our players will be stepping down soon - looking for his replacement - keeping recruitment open for the better part of this month. We have started the 2nd half of book one - still very much the "ground floor".

Check out my "PbP Player Expectations" and apply with a 12th level character (using Ancestry Paragon!) below!

Is there anything in terms of party composition missing?

Is there anything in terms of party composition missing?

As a player who went through the same question. The answer is no ;) the yeah seems well composed,

We have two Frontlines: Max
Healer who is melee, with divine spells: Drockhar
Occult Caster who is a face PC: Zurrus
Primal caster with battle forms Cirri

The real test would be in fights ;)

I won't be able to put together a full 12 levels of crunch until tonight at the earliest, but I figure a Staff-Wielding Hobgoblin Magus from Kaoling should fit the group and the setting pretty well!

So I have a basic gist of a character premise who was trying to undermine some people who were trying to sabotage the tournament and was captured before she was able to intervene. Im thinking either monk or rogue in terms of class. I'll post the build later today.

Finishing up gear/spellbook, but wanted to check that a Ring of Wizardry II would be kosher (since it's uncommon)? I figure Hobgoblin is fine since that one's a recommended race in the campaign guide.

Fang

Here is my character named Fang. She is an ifrit monk who is a reformed criminal that actively tried to stop her former organization from sabotaging the tournament. Unfortunately, she was captured before she could participate.

Personality: She has a bit of a chip on her shoulder after being captured and is out to prove her abilities in the tournament. Normally, she's pretty pragmatic and tactical but when she encounters someone who she thinks is cheating she flies into a fury.

HERE is an anchor post with additional things about this campaign (Check out "House Rules" - these are also in the Campaign Headers).

Limited to two (2) Uncommon options or one Rare and one Uncommon (=2) options. The rest of your character selections must be Common.

Got into a different AP and want to avoid overload, so I'm not going forward with my magus here. Best of luck with the replacement!

Im only planning on taking the ifrit heritage so Ill be fine. Sorry about that I forgot that this edition has rarity and should have asked first. If you want I'll change it as its not an essential part of the character.

Also, my wealth by level was for a level 11 character not a 12. Its easy enough to fix.

If you're interested in another or have a waiting list, I'm interested. I made a witch named Hagatha, here's her sheet:
