Hi folks,
Looking to run Paizo's excellent module Hollow's Last Hope using the new Pathfinder for Savage Worlds Rules. Looking for 4 – 6 interested players who are willing to commit to a posting rate of at least 1/day during the week and at least once during the weekend. You don't have to own the Pathfinder for Savage Worlds game in order to participate, nor do I require familiarity with the rules, as I will teach the game as we go along.
We will be using the standard Golarion setting of northern Andoran. Here's the blurb about the adventure:
"The Town of Falcon's Hollow Needs a Miracle! The plague has come to the town of Falcon's Hollow, and not even the town's priest can abate its wretched course. With the coughs of the sick and the wails of the dying echoing through town, the local herbalist uncovers a cure, but she needs some brave heroes to retrieve the ingredients. Finding the cure means risking the dangerous Darkmoon Vale, infiltrating a witch's haunted hut, and delving the ruins of an abandoned dwarven monastery. Do your heroes have the skill and courage to find the cure in time?"
If you have a copy of the rules, you are free to create a character using the Pathfinder for Savage Worlds Core Rules. If you don't have a copy of the rules, you are free to chose one of the pregens and reskin it as you see fit. Available pregens include:
* Amiri (Human Barbarian)
* Lem (Halfling Bard)
* Kyra (Human Cleric)
* Valeros (Human Fighter)
* Merisiel (Elf Rogue)
* Ezren (Human Wizard)
* Lini (Gnome Druid)
* Harsk (Dwarf Ranger)
* Seoni (Human Sorcerer)
* Sajan (Human Monk)
* Seelah (Human Paladin)
* Kira (Half-elf Barbarian)
* Teller (Human Bard)
* Brokar (Dwarf Cleric)
* Zyril (Elf Fighter)
* Korva (Human Rogue)
* Paelie (Halfling Wizard)
* Fariel (Elf Druid)
* Marn (Half-orc Ranger)
* Gnorr (Dwarf Sorcerer)
* Madda (Half-orc Monk)
* Sil (Elf Paladin)
* Darla (Human with no class but with magical abilities)
If you are interested, please submit the following by May 20th, 2022:
1) Your interest and willingness to adhere to the posting rate (see above).
2) A basic character concept (Name, Ancestry, Class, Personality) or a willingness to play a pregen. Don't worry about coming up with a detailed background, as I prefer to do that cooperatively once all the players are on board.
3) Your stated willingness to deal with the central concept of the adventure, which is helping a locale experiencing a lethal pandemic that resists a cure. If this is too close to home for you personally, please think twice about submitting an application.
I will pick 4-6 players from the applicants, giving slight preference to those with whom I have played with before (especially if the game became inactive before its conclusion, even more so if I was the one that caused it to become inactive).
Submissions will be accepted until May 20th, 2022.
Interested. I've got the SW Pathfinder books and have played / Ran Savage Worlds. I'll work up a concept.
Bump
Thanks for the bump!
I'm interested. I don't own the Pathfinder for Savage Worlds Core Rules. I do own the previous SW rules though so I am familiar with the system in general. As far as characters, I'd take a pre-gen. My top three picks are Madda, Lem, and Merisiel.
The posting rate is good for me too.
I'm interested in this as well. I don't have PfSW, but I have access to the SW core rulebook.
However, I have not played in a SW game before. I am usually a DM in PF1e, and believe I would be able to figure it out pretty quickly.

As I stated in the OP, no familiarity with the system is required. I am planning on teaching it as we go, but it is for all intents and purposes the standard SWADE system. If you don't have the Pathfinder for Savage World rulebook, it might be easier to just pick one of the pregens that are presented in the free previews I linked to above. If the character doesn't appeal to you, you can just "reskin" it to pretty much anything you wish. If those changes necessitate a change in the rules, that should be easy to do.
Excellent.
I am initially leaning towards the druid or one of the clerics, but not tied firmly to anything.
If I look at character options in the core rules, will those transfer to the PF ruleset? In case there is something I want to reskin or rework.

Looks good, scranford.
Judging by the formatting, scranford used Savaged.us a website that is very useful when creating SWADE PCs.

Hi there,
It's the last day to proclaim your interest in joining us before we get going!
Would those who have already expressed interest please go ahead and check-in using your new Character Avatar in the OOC Discussion Thread.
This is to let folks know that there still is room in this game if you'd like to join us.
This is to let folks know (again) that there still is room in this game if you'd like to join us.
Hello
I'm late to this but if there is a spot I would be intrested. I played in a SWADE game of Council of Theives here on this forum - it died but the game system cauth my interest and I bought PF for SW converstion, I think they did a really good job with it. Your gaem looks like you have a ranger, rogue and wizard. Maybe a cleric would be useful?
Cleric would work, sure. Just submit it here and I'll get you started ASAP. Please note that I will be on holiday starting tomorrow through Aug 15th. During that time my internet access will be limited.
Thanks - have a great holdiay! I'll put my character together soon.
I'm putting my character together here so you can spot any mistakes.
In terms of her background, Fliss is *not* from around here. She grew up in one of the bigger towns in Andoran and recently graduated/qualified/ordained as a priest of Cayden Cailean. She is keen to prove herself worthy of the god of heroism, and arrived in Falcon's Hollow after a few weeks of travel. Hearing about the mysterious plague, she immediately made a vow to do waht she can to help the residents, in Cayden's name.
Either she has been tagging along with teh party this whole time (booring) or she played right up to her heroic hindrance and dashed off into the forest straight after talkign with Laurel, only to get in over her head. She meets the party as they rescue her from something she was feeling too heroic to run away from.
let me know what you think.
Race = human, 1 stat starts at d6 (spirit) and you start with 1 free edge (trademark weapon - her rapier, which is calld Valour - natch)
