Rules lawyer? I am honored. :)
As for Gaelden…I dropped her AC from 28 down to 26. It puts her AC squarely among the rest of the entries. Used the gold to get Boots of the Earth. Move action for Fast Healing 1. Expensive. But out of combat healing is nice to have and she won’t need to rely on her pitiful lay on hands (6x 1d6) for healing anymore.
Here is my submission: Half-elf Gunslinger (Bolt Ace) 5/Inquisitor 3 - primarily ranged combatant (light crossbow) with high perception - has disable device if no one else has it. Will spend rest of funds if selected.
I am submitting Trawets for this game. The main idea is in the alias. I need to clean up a few things and spend some money but you should get the gist. He's a blaster.

RIZZENMAGNUS, at the advice my Rules Lawyer, Grumbaki; I have made these two changes to Vondal "Silvertongue" Goldbeard
Grumbaki is wise, one should always listen to the wisdom of Grumbaki....

This message is brought to you by our sponsor, Grumbaki. Gr-....wait. No. Ignore that. What he said was 100% legitimate and was NOT paid for.
Yes. That will do. Fooled them all...

I could raise Kolaiah's AC, if she switched to sword and board, rather than the greatsword, but where's the fun in that?
Next time Rizz !
Have great holidays :)

The fun is (almost) always in the damage. With your Strength 22, a greatsword just makes sense!
Personally...I go for a shield only if...I'm using shield brace (heavy shield with a polearm), unhindering shield (buckler with any weapon), or a niche build (such as a slayer using range combat style to get shield master and combines with sneak attack for damage*)
Example build of when I would want to use a shield instead of a two handed weapon:
Class: Deliverer Slayer (10)
Slayer talents for ranger combat style at lvls 4+8+12
Race: Dwarf
Traits: Dwarven Weapon Training (+1 damage), Glory of Old (+1 hardy)
Weapons: Dwarven War-Shields
Feats:
Lvl 1: Shield Focus
Lvl 3: Shield Bash
Lvl 4: Two Weapon Fighting (no prerequisites)
Lvl 5: Power Attack
Lvl 7: Heavy Armor Proficiency
Lvl 8: Shield Master (no prerequisites)
Lvl 9: Weapon Focus
Lvl 11: Accomplished Sneak Attacker
Lvl 12: Improved Two Weapon Fighting (no prerequisites)
Gets studied target +3 (swift action), sneak attack (5d6), divine anethma (2d6 bonus damage so long as enemy is 2 alignment steps away). Improved Two weapon fighting adds two extra attacks, and shield master removes two weapon fighting penalties and allows the shield to use it's shield enchantment as a weapon enchantment too!
A +3 magic sword is 18000 gold. A +3 magic shield is 9000 gold. Thanks to shield master, you can get your main shield with bashing. So +1 hit, +1 damage, and 1d6 base damage turns to 2d6. The offhand shield would be +3. So +3 hit, +3 damage and +3 AC.
So...rough math time. Assuming Str18 Dex13...
Main Hand: +19+14/+9 to hit and 9d6+12 damage
Off Hand: +21/+21 and 8d6+10 damage
Given that you only need Dex12 to max out your plate armor and you have a +3 shield, AC won't be a problem at all.
Anyways...rambling over. I'd never take a shield for a martial character unless it falls into one of these three categories. Shield Brace, Unhindering Shield, or a specialized build that uses the shield as a weapon.

As I said, "where's the fun in that?"
since i had internet issues last night, and am still experiencing them intermittently, the deadline shall be changed to Monday, Nov 18th.
Im going to choose 5 players.
Let's give this a try. Please consider Torgar the Invulnerable Rager for the team.
Here's my (Seth86) application
Class : Magus (Staff Magus)
Astrillith is a follower of Pharasma(or equivalent) and is one of the coroners in the city
Main duty is to perform last rights to the dead before being entombed or laid to rest. Not a cleric but a priest/coroner by profession.
Often going with adventurers to help with battling incursions or outbreaks of monsters and other threats to the city.
Path of War, yay or nay?can you give me a link?It is the 3rd party Pathfinder equivalent to 3.5's Book of Nine Swords if you are familiar with that.
Hmmm... yea, ill allow it.
@Rizzenmagnus, I had some Q's that may have gotten missed:
1) Crafting and equipment. I propose to have a bunch of alchemical gear, which I can craft myself. Can I buy it at craft your own prices (1/3 cost)?
2) Similarly, but with magic items, if we can craft our own, do we get them at reduced price (1/2 cost)?
3) Are we using the Spontaneous alchemy rules from the Alchemy manual?
I saw them. Couldnt post a reply lol
Typing from my phone
1 & 2) yes. Thats fine. I am going to say that you can only apply up to 25% of your total gold towards this item.
3) got a link?
Gaelden: Changeling Champion of the Enlightened
Jambreth: Elven Knife-Master Rogue
Vondal: Dwarven Aasimar Godling
Kolaiah: minotaur skald "i studied the blade"

I would go for the paladin monk. That's my 2 cents.
You have 4 players. In my experience having someone drop out is a fairly common occurrence. And even if nobody does, 6 isn’t a bad party size.
And for a purely selfish note, I’ve gamed with Zahir ibn Mahmoud before. I’ve enjoyed his characters, having him in the group would be a plus.
Why not both? :)
The handsome dwarf gives a thumbs-up. "Vondal-approved!!"
ah screw it.
Both Gaeldon and Kolaiah can jump over.
Huzza!
8th level sounds awesome! Ok try to catch the next one!

Thinking Drow Rogue, since forgotten realms races is there in the recruitment.

I get that your character might not have taken Knowledge (Math) yet, but, 4+4+6 actually equals 14, not 12.
So maybe a little more stellar?
