I think he's pretty much done. There might be something I'm missing; there always seems to be something, but for the most part, that's pretty much it.
O I like Jakob, he sounds loads of fun.
I think Robert and Dafydd would get along fairly well. Somewhat similar backgrounds and experiences, with them both being sons of nobility who served in The Great War and later Ireland. (Also thanks for inadvertently reminding me to firm up my connections and stuff.)

EVERYONE
To assist with reviewing your characters, I would ask for a bit of bookkeeping on your application. Please include a listing of your feats that shows at what level (and how if from a class) they were gained. Also, please clearly identify which two abilities you gained from your racial boon.
Cassius Cunningham
Looks like a solid application. It looks like you have a couple extra racial traits - it looks like you took Focused Study (in place of Bonus Feat) and Low Light Vision (in place of Skilled), but then you have 4 bonus racial abilities (rather than 2): Fey Magic, Fey Thoughts, Darkvision, and Hardy. Could you clarify?
Herman Smith
Game will start on October 1st, 1935 (so late in the year, and after the Nuremberg Laws went into effect). Things were already getting bad for the Jewish people of Germany, and I am okay with artistic adjustments in the fabric of history. Not fully advancing to mass arrest and incarceration, but Jewish people were certainly being targeted heavily among political arrests at the time.
Helena Conradina
I was looking over your details, and saw a couple things: on Traits, you get a Campaign trait + two more, so you still have one more to chose. You also only have 3 feats, when you should have 6 (1 human, 2 @ 1st, 1 @ 2nd, 1 @ 3rd, 1 @ 4th), so you have a few more feats to select.
Javell DeLeon
I did not see what bonus racial abilities you took for Jakob. If you have not selected any, maybe Dwarf would give some good options?
Dachu held political prisoners until 1938. It wasn't until after Kristallnacht that it held Jews. You could still try a rescue but it would be a political prisoner, who could be Jewish as well.
@Herman Smith:
Yeah, trawets71 is right about Dachau and the several other concentration camps that existed before 1938. They were used for political prisoners. This doesn't limit your possibilities for a person needing rescue all that much though. The Nazi regime had a very expansive concept of political enemies.
Political prisoners who were specifically political could be anyone who was prominent or held a position in the Kommunistische Partei Deutschlands (KPD), the German communist party; or the Sozialdemokratische Partei Deutschlands (SPD), the Social Democrats. The KPD was outlawed the day after the Nazi Party won the German elections in 1933. The SPD, which had been the party in power through most of the Weimar Republic, was also outlawed in 1933 after it was the only party to vote against the Enabling Act, which allowed Hitler as Chancellor and his cabinet to pass laws without the consent of the Reichstag.
There were lots of small political parties on the left that didn't matter much as well. But all parties were either declared illegal or merged with the Nazi Party by late 1933. Although there were no representative political parties, anarchists were also targeted.
As for political prisoners who weren't directly involved in politics, anyone who had some kind of public platform and had spoken out in the past in favor of something that ran counter to the Nazi Party's platform, or against the Nazi Party or any element of its platform was in danger. Erich Maria Remarque, who wrote All Quiet on the Western Front fled Germany for Switzerland in 1933 with good reason. His book was banned as "unpatriotic".
Hans Litten , a defense lawyer who had subpoenaed Hitler as a witness in a trial and cross-examined him in 1931 was taken into "protective custody" in the middle of the night about a month after Hitler became chancellor in 1933. Litten was never charged with anything but died at Dachau in 1938.
So, anyone who was a writer, journalist, academic, involved in the arts or entertainment, etc. could be in danger depending on what they might have done, said or written, or were rumored to have done, said, or written said prior to 1933. The very first war the Nazi's waged was a "culture war".
If you want to specifically be trying to to rescue a Jewish prisoner, that is easy based on the above. Both the KPD and the SPD were very popular parties among German Jews. Right wing parties were all antisemitic to some greater or lesser degree, so there wasn't much appeal or acceptance to be found by Jewish voters there.
German Jews were also broadly urban, assimilated, and middle-class compared to most other European nations. They well very well represented in exactly the same professions, academic disciplines, and literary and artistic careers as the Nazis targeted in the early 1930's. All you'd need to do is decide which of the many reasons aside from specifically being Jewish they were sent to Dachau for.

Made my alias for Robert (this is Degnax) all my information is in my about page found here --> Robert
I think Robert and Dafydd would get along fairly well. Somewhat similar backgrounds and experiences, with them both being sons of nobility who served in The Great War and later Ireland. (Also thanks for inadvertently reminding me to firm up my connections and stuff.)
It sounds they would get on quite swell! Robert is known to bond quickly with his brothers in arms.
@wanderer82 I have changed my characters last name to fit my narrative. Sorry if there's any confusion from it.
Helena Conradina

COOL!!! I wondered if I had it right,
OK will Fix right now.Add 3x Feats:
Eschew Materials {cuz everyone forgets about the magic components and your going to look odd on the street, holding up bits if silver wire, cloth and throwing salt about, this dose away with a lot of the hokus-pokus stuff.}
Blind Fight {This one I think is a must for anyone using a gun in the modern world}
Extra Investigator Talent {Quick Study (Ex)} {cuz she is smart and old, and has leaned to study someone faster.}
And her trait.
Added 1x Trait:
RELIGIOUS SCHOLAR: You gain a +1 trait bonus on Diplomacy, Knowledge (religion), and Knowledge (occult) checks, and one of these skills (your choice) is a class skill for you. You also know the language of your faith.
{She sells Religious and occult books, , AND +3 on 3 skills with a free language O yes please}
Talia's preferred weapon is point and click :P

@GM
I'll try to do a break down of my character choices when I get home in about 2 hours
A shower of mud went up as the shell landed close to them, It was getting dark, Helena reached over and grabbed Anna her fellow nurse, who was holding the other end of the stretcher on which was injured German officer. Pulling her head down.
In German
"Keep your head down, a tommy Spotter is looking for us."
There was meant to be a 1/2 hour lull in the shelling, so that both sides could go get the injured from no-man's-land. But they had taken to long getting to the officer, who was no moaning in pain on the stretcher. But it seemed the war has started up again and they were not back to safety yet.
"We are almost there, just over this crater and we can slip into a forward trench.
Anna had a look of worry and fear on her face.
"We will never make it, they have us Hellen"
Helena gave Anna, a grim look,
"We can't stay here, he will die, and they will shell us, let me think a moment."
She took a SOLDIERS MINUTE to steady her mind to look around and think. Then made up her mind, she reached for the officers belt, taking the pistol from it, checking it.
"Anna I want you to close your eyes, do not open them until I come back and tell you to move."
Anna nodded and did as she was told. Helena moved over the other wall of the large creator, she checked the luger gun again. This was it, As she did she started to say words in no human language. She had leaned long ago to cast things with just words, and none of this filly fally with bits of cats ear and bats wings. Then a sheen seemed to cover her for a moment and her eyes seems to glow from inside. Then she stood, scanning the british front lines. It was fully dark now and she know she had a chance.
"Come on where the devil are you?
In the dark who ever was spotting for the artialy was having a hard time seeing them, but to her now it was daytime and there was the glint of glass.
"Got ya!"
She lifted the pistol studded her target and shot a round, the sound of shattering. She had hit the periscope the spotter was using, But the flash of the gun and given her position away. She docked back and moved to Anna fast.
"Come one, move now!"
Up they went to the other side of the crater as sniper rounds whizzed behind them. Up and over and into safety. And the SOLDIERS MINUTE passed.
Anna she was told was killed three days later, when a forward hospital bunker was hit. Hellena never saw the officer again, and never got the chance to give him his gun back so she kept it. And she lived throw the war to end all wars.
It was 1935 and now that spring had come, A well dressed gent crossed the road at white hall and heading into the building. Stopping at the front desk, he handed over a card. The clark point at a small brass elevator, and the gent entered, The boy running it looked at the gets sideways.
Long white hair, fine overcoat and wast coat. Well made boots. He looked every part the son of some reach lord, a daddy or post. The young gent look at the lad and winked.
Coming to the right floor, the boy opened the lift and let the gent out.
down a small corridor and soon the gent was outside a door. Checking the name on the office he tapped on the door.
A gruff voice replied from with in
"WELL COME"
The find young gent opened the door and entered. Inside the room was a mess, Book, desks, there was more then one, letters notes, more notes, sheets of telegrams and notes. A short plump man was standing in front of a desk, looking over a map of spain.
"Your late"
He said not looking at the young gent,
"No I'm not your old devil, your just not drunk enough yet to tell."
The partly man chucked and a puff of thick cigar smoke wafted form him.
Still not looking round. He said.
"Do you have them?"
The young gent took a a bunch of notes, rolled up like a scroll.
"Yes, what my contact at the publisher could get, they are copies but she says its the gist of his work"
The portly man now turned round, a drink in one hand, cigar in another.
"What's the title going to be?"
The young gent said in replay.
"Mein Kampf, the struggle or my struggle. The punisher is trying to change that. Says its sound poppus as hell."
The fat man chulked,
"Thank you Mr Von Der-Ahe, the payment will be placed in your London bank. Is that satisfactory, 200 guineas was it not."
Mr Von Der-Ahe nodded.
"And a little something from me. Caesar's gallic wars the new Oxford press translation."
A book joined the rolled up notes form germany.
"Please let me know if you want anything in the future sir, It was a pleasure."
The fat man waved his hand.
"I will let you know, thank you, until next time"
With that Mr Von Der-Ahe left, leaving the chubby man looking at the notes of Hir Hitler's draft book.
"Hummm, I am going to have to do something about this man.
He said to himself, and then went back to his maps of spain.

Thanks for looking over my submission! Happy to clarify.
You are correct in that it does seem like a lot. I’m totally fine with a carved out version, but the ability says, ”A human can take it in place of skilled. A human who replaces skilled with fey magic also gains fey thoughts and low-light vision.” here (link). So I think I get low light vision, fey magic, and fey thoughts from the loss of skilled.
If that seems like too much, happy to pare it down to two of three, or even one of three. Just let me know your preference. Trying to broaden him a bit. Not sure if we're going to do any water at all, but if we do, he'll have a trick or two up his sleeve.
O I like Jakob, he sounds loads of fun.
:D Thanks! Yeah, I had fun with him. Sometimes it just hits me and I get carried away. :P
Javell DeLeon
I did not see what bonus racial abilities you took for Jakob. If you have not selected any, maybe Dwarf would give some good options?
Yeah, I did not select any. Will check it out and get that squared away. Thanks!
Dafydd should be fully updated and compliant with recent GM requests, connections, alignment, all that stuff now. Took Religious Scholar as my campaign trait.

Similarly, I was looking at Gnome Magic for my Sorcerer Fortunato, and that too, seems a bit too much. I could pare it down, or only take the (1) racial ability, or just skip it altogether. Just checking, though. Figured it couldn't hurt.
Gnomes add +1 to the DC of any saving throws against illusion spells that they cast.
Gnomes with Charisma scores of 11 or higher also gain the following spell-like abilities: 1/day—dancing lights, ghost sound, prestidigitation, and speak with animals.
The caster level for these effects is equal to the gnome’s level. The DC for these spells is equal to 10 + the spell’s level + the gnome’s Charisma modifier.
Here is my submission John Mosby I am not finished yet. I still need to finish the background and pick some feats. I may change the bonus campaign feats (1,2,4 etc) to something not combat related, which will change my feats up.
I haven't had time to come up with anything due to unforseen circumstances and, while everything's all well and good now, I don't want to hold things up for everyone else while I tinker with a character. Consider this my official withdrawal from the recruitment. Good luck everyone and I hope you all have a great time!
I think I have John finished. I made some changes to his feats that were originally there. If there are any questions please let me know.
I have altered Helenas spells slightly, When I wrote the Helena and Churchill, skit, I liked the idea she can make herself look like a male version of herself for a time. Helena is happy to supply books to anyone, but sometimes she dose not want to be known as
Miss Helena Conradina but as Mr Von Der-Ahe

Hello ladies and gentlemen. It has been exciting to respond to the myriad of PMs I continue to get daily. There are a lot of great characters coming together, but there is also still plenty of time for more! Maybe you have only expressed interest in the game, or maybe you just saw this thread for the first time. Do not hesitate to apply! And if you have part of a concept but would like help realizing it for this pathfinder modern setting, feel free to drop it on this thread or send me a PM.

Cool, thanks! I'll leave Cassius as is then. That said, I do plan to rework my background a bit - it needs some more flesh on the bones. Nothing dramatically different, I just want to improve the writing a bit. I'll have it done this weekend, well before your cutoff for review.
Coffee Dragon
Gnome Magic is fine to take. How goes the rebuild from rogue to sorcerer?
Awesome!
The character write up goes well and will be done by/on Saturday. I'm glad now that you weren't a fan of the rogue version. I like the sorcerer better! LOL I got busy with work and a couple of kid events for my teenage daughters who are finishing up their school year.
Trawets71
Were you thinking about the 1911 being your Musketeer gun, or a rifle?
Yes, the M1911 would be the gunslinger gun he gets.

Sounds like a Vigilante. That's what I thought of with the whole Miss/Mr. switcheroo. :) (I know practically nothing about the Vigilante, but I do know they are about dual identities. That's the only reason I thought of that class).
Good morning, this is Tara Ravenheart tagging in with my character, Vicountess Evangeline Haldane (Abercromby du Pulignac), commonly referred to as Lady Eva. Thank you for all the assistance making my concept a reality. I am still transposing all the details from my development document into the profile on here, but it should all be in today.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Thank you all for your interest. At this time, I am closing recruitment to new applicants. Those who have either submitted or are in the process of working on a character should get it finished in the next 48 hours.
I am very excited to get things underway!
Aw man, I missed this.

Cool its always good to have the GM hyped to start play :)
I have one question, I know some one asked, but are we using
Sanity like this as a mechanic GM?
| 2 people marked this as a favorite. |
As this game is going more for a pulp/action/adventure feel, I am not planning on using any Sanity rules. I would rather not get lost in the dark/madness/horror side of things (though these will certainly show up, just not as the primary focus).
Does that make sense?
So, more Indianna Jones and The Mummy Returns and less Call of Cthulhu, yes?
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Yes, absolutely.
And to be clear, if you have communicated with me and/or posted in this thread, please CONTINUE to work on your character proposal through tomorrow night. Think of this as the "4th quarter" so to speak.
huzzah
Did not expect this to happen, but the GM direct-messaged me saying you might need a nature-y themed character, and I believe they're offering me a spot? Or, at the very least, granting me leniency on the character submission deadline. I thank you greatly for the chance, GM Wanderer.
Currently asking a few questions about the campaign to decide between two characters.
To be clear, no one has been offered any spots.
I have certainly been the person that missed an interesting recruitment thread by a day, and as I built in a soft window for final completions, am allowing your submission during this time.
Hence the correction afterwards, figured you wouldn't be that quick to offer a secured spot :3 Should have made it more direct that "yeah it's just an extension," admittedly, lmao. My excuse is insomnia.
I do have a question though, also asked in DMs, what kinds of enemies will we be facing?
Alright, the crunch for two characters is mostly complete; I just figured I should quickly type these up before I inevitably fall asleep. I'll decide on which character I'm going for once I get a bit more information on the campaign:
Lilyana Boyarova -- Russian Emigré and "Menshevik" (in reality: former anarchist rebel... the group supposedly invented the tachanka and her original concept made use of it at a point the campaign never got to so... that's why she's like that) fleeing persecution in Russia and Ukraine. Knows her way around the woods and the streets well enough that if she was in a non-Earthen campaign she'd probably pass for a Druid. Barring the guns.
Viola Fox - An urban druid based around the rising urban fox population in london at the time, very much your average druid and would likely work at the London Zoo. Quite peeved about the grey squirrel population invasion, and is likely in all kinds of naturalist circles with connection to IRL figures.
Once I get more info, I'll flesh out the character I'm choosing to include more than just rushed mechanical stats
Given the setting is functionally our world, your primary enemies will be humans. As the game progresses, you will encounter foes of other types, magical beasts, undead, demons, constructs, and being from the great beyond.
Goblins, orcs, and trolls - not so much.
As for the nature of those human enemies? Yes, Nazis will be among them, as will other groups vying for power.
There are cars for technicals, and there are Nazis.
I'm going with Lilyana. She's also one of my older characters, so I have a pretty solid grasp on how the character acts, at least in comparison to Viola. She will probably be in both naturalist and... well, anarchist circles around England with respect to NPCs. The non-crunch character details will be up within a day or two.
That, and I'm kind of worried about power budget on Viola, especially since Magical Knack might be impossible to justify on Earth. That whole 2 CL might be needed.
... That, and admittedly I am not sure if Spellslinger cooperates with ABP! Woops.
Ah shucks, looks like I missed this fine recruitment. Maybe next time if Lady Luck is on my side!
Delve into history complete, and I've drafted up a backstory, appearance, and 4 NPCs (2 naturalists, 2 anarchists) that she's ran into. Some are lifted from history, and I nabbed my other concept as an NPC she's ran into in both the conservationist and occult spheres.
I wanted to get as much down about her as I could so as to not delay your recruitment any further. Hopefully she's up to specification.
I'm going to assume English is common here, since we start in London?
@Gerard Nisroc if you think you can develop a full character in about 18 hours, feel free to give it a shot!
@Gerard Nisroc if you think you can develop a full character in about 18 hours, feel free to give it a shot!
Most gracious. I can try, but might need to dovetail for story. I'll figure something out.
Possibly Rogue (Knife Master)/Swashbuckler or Paladin. Driver/Pilot.
Dropping out of school to help with the family business wasn't the end of the world... a modest but popular restaurant/cafe in Cairo wasn't a bad place to be.
World reknowned magician, "The Fantastic Fortunato", aka Mario DaVinci Fortino, is ready for submission, barring the necessary edit or correction due to an error in math or somesuch. As I explained in my message to our DM Wanderer, my freetime has been hectic and distracted, of late.
Hope you like him, and I'm more than ready to fix anything you might have issue with. :D
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
@Fortunato, you may want to reread the rules regarding feats. 1/level. I'm not sure if it's one more in addition to the human and the first level feat, or if it's the human one they're talking about.
(Relevant for me, since I gave up the human feat and skill point to not take a penalty)

Oh, jeeze. Forgot about that.
Thanks for the heads up.
1st level is 2 feats + the human feat (so 3 in all, unless you traded away the human feat for an alternate racial ability).
If I get selected I'll fix that with another teamwork feat then.
