I am recruiting 3-5 characters for the Ironfang Invasion AP for Pathfinder 1E. This will be my first attempt at gming a pbp campaign, so there may be some technical hiccups. Please see below to learn more about me as well as character creation requirements.
The maps will be provided on Google Drive. Please make sure you can access to Google Maps whatever device you’re posting on.
20pt buy
Races: Core and featured
Classes: Core, base, hybrid
No 3pp
2 traits, or 3 traits and a drawback
background skills
Max hp at 1st lvl and roll or half every lvl after
Max gold at 1st lvl
Please read through the player's guide, pick out a campaign trait if yo you like, and figure out how your character fits in. Pepper me with whatever questions you have. I plan on leaving recruitment open for a couple of weeks.
I'm aware of life continuing to happen in RL and player drop off will occur. To combat this, I am open to re-recruiting, granting characters mythic powers, using NPC's to fill rolls. I am open to what the players want. I do plan on having an NPC join you from the beginning. I've played in other pbp games that have utilized an NPC or two and have seen that this can help keep the game moving. It is also an easy way to direct events in a more natural way. It is also a crutch for me. ;)
You should expect to meet a cute vine leshy druid in town.

And let me point out the GM has an irrational hatred of good, decent, and honest paladins and besmirches their good name and reputation and casts aspersion at them!
(Note: This post is completely humorous and intended to tease the GM.)
:)
I am interested in playing. I'm thinking a martial character of some type.
Now now, that was Bahram the archaeologist, not Mahuffma, his handler who besmirched the character of a stuffy ole paladin. He's currently in a demi-plane created by Nex, btw. He also retired from the PFS.
Dotting for interest...
I'm interested, and am thinking a halfling bandit who is an aspirant Foxclaw scout. A bit of a personal redemption goal.
If you've seen the intro of Darkest Dungeon's highwayman, it's a softer version of that.
Definitely interested. Likely as a martial type, possibly a Ranger or Barbarian.
Can you quickly tell me what counts as Base Class and Featured Race? I have a few ideas bouncing around in my head.

Here are a couple links to each. Basically no outlandish stuff. If you want outlandish, and can convince me of how it fits and why, I might consider it.
Well, there goes the kitsune-specific build. Might I ask what archetypes are allowed?
Tell me what you're thinking.
I have multiple in mind, but nothing that draws features from any banned classes, for the record. Can't decide on a single concept right now. But a few of them include the Mindchemist archetype in one way or another.
But unless a particular concept strikes me well, I'm not likely to submit, if I'm being honest.
How would you feel about a Halfling Bard? Or perhaps a Dhampir Rogue? The former is no archetype, but the latter would be Counterfeit Mage and with possibility for Multiclass into Alchemist.
Tell me what you're thinking.
I have three concepts with any amount of plan behind them:
- Gunchemist Mindchemist Alchemist (adopted) Hobgoblin merchant with a lingering distrust of the arcane, hence the gun. Would very likely require your permission, per the Player Guide, and the fact that this one involves guns, which I know is a touchy subject for DMs.
- Human Mindchemist. Not much to say about this concept, would likely be some relatively-bland human (in comparison to Hobgoblin with a gun and a rogue-but-not Ratfolk) from the starting town.
- Adapted version of the Kitsune Concept: Ratfolk Empiricist / Vivisectionist Mindchemist skill monkey. The original Kitsune concept had a level of Kitsune Trickster to convert yet more skills to depend on INT. Least combat-focused of the three, but would be essentially a mini rogue with a cognatogen.
Would likely go for the first one of them if it's approved. Would pick one of the other two at random if not. So, the archetypes I'm asking about are - Mindchemist, Gunchemist, Vivisectionist, and Empiricist.
Dotting for interest!
Dot for interest! Initially thinking of the Bright-Burn campaign trait coupled with Sorcerer (Sylvan, maybe?) but I'll see.
Also, will the militia subsystem be using? Just as a curiosity since I was reading the Player's Guide.
One last thing that might be important, this would be my first PbP. (or maybe second if I'm accepted in another one before).
How about a half-orc Inquisitor/Sacred Slayer of Desna, originally from Tamran? Still have some work to do filling in the CS but looks like there's time.
I've heard of this campaign several times but never had a chance to play in it.

You sure about trying a hobgoblin in this AP that is all about killing goblins and hobgoblins?
Thinking I might put together a dwarven warpriest or cleric.
Will have something done up in a day or so.
Iosef here is a pig farmer / conjuration wizard
I previously submitted him (unsuccessfully) for an II campaign that was in progress, so I'll just need to delevel him and make some minor adjustments to his most recent history.
Hello All!
Tempting...I started IFI PbP, but...well...happens.
Ahmose, the Blue Whisper was a Kobold unrogue...hmmm...thinking...

Alot of things to sort through here.
1. I'm fine with guns. Crafting bullets may or may not become an issue in this campaign.2. As Sir Longears mentioned, playing a hobgoblin in a campaign where an army of hobgoblins may have murdered everyone's mother might be suicide. It would take some strong roleplay to make this work.
3. I'm fine with all of the archetypes, but gun chemist would be a stretch. Originating from the Mana Wastes, the flooded fields of the Sodden Lands, the blighted depths of the Fangwood, or the demonic wilds of the Worldwound would take an interesting story line to get you in place.
4. Ratfolk is fine.

There is a reason I'm asking for approval for the concept, after all. The idea of someone with an extreme axe to grind against his own kind for one reason or another is a fun one, even if I'm bound to be labeled a spy everywhere I go throughout the entire campaign. He'd try his utmost to distance himself from the party at every conceivable opportunity, unsure about whether it's out of compassion for them to not be viewed as harboring a potential spy, or some deep-seeded opinion of other races rearing its ugly head. That, and oh boy if there's ever a Hobgoblin Spellcaster for some reason (as extremely rare as they are), that poor soul will likely be blown to bits with Ordnance on sight. He'd have no problems murdering his own kind to prove his allegiance, and likely would be among the first to do so.
That, and there's a feat, Hobgoblin Discipline, that never says the Hobgoblins you're near have to be allies. Least of the reasons, but that'd be admittedly hilarious gaining a +1 to all saving throws out of pure hatred for your own kind. I also want a chance to be more trigger-happy than any of my current characters, without resorting to the common "hating goblins" trope or falling back to the war that's the backdrop for the whole thing.

This character sounds strong.
Militia subsystem: I plan on using the system, but to what extent is still to be decided. It depends on player interest once it is revealed. If nobody likes it, I'll run it in the background. If everyone digs it, we can make it more chunky. Kind of like the options in the Kingmaker and WOTR video games.
Ok here’s my full concept for a character.
Vienna Porke is a Halfling Bard from the Fangwood Forest with the Blight-Burned Campaign Trait. They were part of a traveling bardic group that was planning to head to the town to play, but were plagued by the Darkblight and were infected by the Darkblight infection. She survived alongside the group’s drummer, but has a huge scar across her stomach from the infection and gets noticeably sick in regards to getting close to other sources of Darkblight. She still performs, but it’s now a solo act and because of that she’s stuck beating herself up that she couldn’t save more.
As a bard, it’s the base Bard with the spells Charm Person and Dazzling Blade as the Level 1 Spells and Detect/Read Magic, Message and Spark for Cantrips.
Dotting for interest!
Right now, I'm thinking of a rogue-type skill focused character, what's your thoughts on using unchained version of rogue? I really like the signature skill/rogue's edge skill unlocks and would love to play with them, but I totally understand if that's a no.
Otherwise, I'm probably looking at a rogue, slayer, or investigator as a class, and the Chernasado Hopeful campaign trait.
Dotting!
I'll re-work my elf Ranger because I don't have enough time to start a new character from scratch, and he's the only character I have who could fit the campaign

I was in two II campaigns before with this character, but they petered out before we got very far.
Skalla is a half-orc skald and a worshipper of Shelyn who lives in Phaendar as a teacher. Her background is in her character profile, and I can easily rework the stat block for level 1 instead of level 3.
Definitely interested. I'm thinking Human Hunter (either standard or Forester), follower of the Green Faith, likely taking the Chesnardo Hopeful or Foxclaw scout trait.
Will get started on building the character.
Work in porogress. Need to complete equipment etc.

I don't have a problem with unchained rogue, I'm just not as familiar with it and so I may miss or forget some of good features.
So, here goes my submission.
I'm making a Sylvan Sorcerer with some possibilities for tweaks. I took Bright-Burned, as mentioned, from the Player's Guide but also a regional trait from Nirmathas that grants Diplomacy, in case the party needs a face. The Player's Guide mentions crafting, so even with a low intelligence, I can take one crafting feat if no one else shows up for that, probably Craft Wondrous Item?
Also, Sylvan adds an Animal Companion and I chose it mostly for the flavor of the AP, but I understand if it makes it reach animal companion critical mass, as Rangers, Druids and Hunters will certainly be part of the group. The character works perfectly fine as a Fey bloodline as well.

This simple way of life was torn from Isabelle suddenly, 16 years ago. The dense canopy of the Fangwood, which makes it seem like an eternal twight, hid from them the approach of blighted Fey. They slaughtered everyone, Isabelle being forgotten or left for dead in the forest.
She does not remember much by that point, only the silhouette of a small furry tiger, licking her wounds. She would find out later the tiger cub found her and alerted his mother, a tiger from a Chernasardo Ranger, who rescued the child and brought to a nearby militia group.
The next few weeks were a blur as she fought the blight, eventually winning but not without the disease leaving its mark. On the right side of her forehead, a deep dark green scar starts, in a spot where hair would usually grow but does not anymore, passes through the right eye (which miraculously survived), the right cheek, neck and ends around the right shoulder.
The local militia took care of Isabelle that helped as she could, usually as an apprentice tailor for the fighters’ damaged clothes. Not long after her powers first manifested, probably a consequence of the blight. She grew close to the tiger cub who saved her, which she named Stripes. Typical name that a 12-year old would give but still persists to this day.
Eventually she could actually help, serving as a makeshift diplomat for the militias. Her period of wandering with her family gave her the talent of talking and most Nirmathas were reasonable anyway, in her view. She would hone her powers a little bit however to this point never actively participated in combat, even though she was trained by the milita for eventual skirmishes against Molthuni invaders.
After a decade, Isabelle and Stripes decided to settle down, staying on Phaendar. She has lived there for 6 years, mostly as a tailor, even though she is still not particularly good at it. Her rescue by Stripes and reconnection with Nirmathas’ populace made her recently become more devoted to Erastil.

Vienna Porke is a travelling bardic performer from the city of Longshadow, who has travelled her home nation of Nirmathas in order to try finding a place where her music can be enjoyed by all. While she occasionally visits back to her place of birth when she can, she more or less simply travels on her own with a donkey to carry her stuff and a trumpet to make the travel a bit lighter on her heavy stomach.
For a while, she used to travel with other bards of many different races as well, in a group known as the Brass Mugs. This included a Human violinist by the name of Marvin, a dwarf drummer from Highhelm named Copperbeard, a Sylph singer named Kiera and a elven dancer named Cerci. Among them, she held a particular attraction towards Copperbeard, and actually managed to get an engagement from him, to which she said yes.
However, it was not meant to be. While travelling on their way to Phaendar they tried making it through the Fangwood... only to come across a nightmarish plague of blighted fey that massacred them. Only her and Kiera survived, and even then they were on death's door when they actually made it to their planned town. And since Kiera's scars have left her completely unable to speak due to ruined vocal cords... only Vienna was still able to perform among her original group.
Due to the incident, and also not wanting to forget what she had been through Vienna made a new home in Phaendar while still travelling around the country. She tends to stay away from the Fangwood but otherwise she's still trying to put on a happy face. However, her ultimate goal is to eventually build up enough money to find someone who can cure the Blightburn, so that those who were affected by the Blight are no longer threatened by it.

This is Dorian Grey's work in progress....Lol, Kermie the magus. Draw him up.@ GM Mahuffma the thought trail to a Grippli Magus is developing....should I continue to follow it?
EDIT
Now I want to make Kermit!?
Dorian Grey indeed. A Halfling and a Grippli working together just sounds like so much fun tbh.
Oops, I forgot a background.
I will have something roughed up by tomorrow. :)
Also have a cleric roughed up. Do you want me to post him ?
Working on his background, but the character crunch is in my profile.

That's a pretty good Cleric build tbh. Also finished making a Alias for my Halfling gal too.

Thanks!
Also, the backstory is on the character sheet now too.

She's gonna be pretty formidable.
When do you plan to close recruitment?
Good question. I said maybe a couple of weeks originally. I received a lot more applicants than I expected. I think I'll give everyone until this Wednesday to finalize their characters and then make my choices by Saturday. I'll put together a comprehensive list of applicants tomorrow.
@ GM Mahuffma would the in place of a melee attack you may make a combat maneuver check to trip against that opponent combine with a regular Spell Combat/Spell Strike retinue?
