Thanks Azure_Zero, I suspected, but I do recall some people getting custom Avatars some time back and figured I would check and see if I got an answer. I think lack of answer from anyone AT Paizo was clear to me :-)
Though somehow these Smurf Avatars seem to evade copyright!!!! LOL.
Depending on who they are, they might of gotten first dibs on a batch of Paizo avatars, or had strong Paizo ties and asked to be allowed a custom avatar they likely had the rights to.
As for the Smurf avatars, I think because it is an easter egg in the code that is not really visible and that ownership of the smurfs could be up in the air that they slipped it in.
They likely deny any custom avatars, for a Number of legal and or other reasons, Like;
Copyright, (they don't want to get sued)
Avatar possibly being Offensive to others,
Avatar violating certain rules of the boards,
and there are likely a few others, but the big ones are listed.
Paizo does not want to smurf with the Law or certain groups.
I won't be able to finished my character before the deadline, so it'll have to be what is there.
I got all the mechanics down, and a chunk of the backstory, just not all the fluff for my submission, like motives and goals.
Azure Zero - Calli Lustra, Half-succubus Elf Slayer (Woodland Sniper)
Her mother named her such and was hoping her to be a follower of Calistria, but got a follower of Kurgress.
A rather average looking man steps in, pausing to look around. He brushes a random strand of his blond hair back in place and it falls back where it was almost immediately. He brushes a slight bit of dust from his clothing and approaches what he assumes is the innkeeper.
"A bit of water would be nice to rinse the dust from my throat. I wouldn't want to be concerning anyone with a dry cough."
He glances at the young attractive lady and frowns. "What language was that? Seemed a bit harsh but I didn't recognize a single word of it."
Very interesting. I'm not sure what part of my simple post indicated an attempt to assert authority. But, since it was implied I will state for the record: I have no authority in this game. The GM that is running this recruitment and will be running the game has the only authority!
....
I think he was pointing it at me, for stating a fact that backed up your idea of a roll call for to check if folks were still interested.

There. And I'm happy to see that we have many active posters for the game. Active posting usually means the game will be fun! Good luck all!!!

I agree, on this.
It also means it will be a collective and collaborative storytelling experience, since communication and engagement are needed to run any Fun Pathfinder game, especially in the PBP format.

Azure_Zero, I'm not a big fan of half-monster PCs in the game, sorry about that. They'd be hard-pressed to be allowed into a city like Greyhawk, and given how many half-monstrous evil NPCs the party has run into, they wouldn't likely give your PC a chance to open their mouth before attacking. And even if they DID hear you out, there wouldn't be a realistic chance of trusting your character even the tiniest bit.
So would they run out of town even a half-celestial or half-nymph cleric, who have the blood of icons of purity (of different aspects of purity, but purity none the less)?
Also some templates can disguise them selves really well and if they know the prejudice is against them before anyone gets to know them,
do you think they'd appear to the party monstrously, obliviously not.
Here is Daxiana Gloridia Medvyed, a human ranger with focus on archery!
It's a tale as old as time as she would rather get attacked by bandits than face one more of her parents' chosen potential suitors for her.
Bit of fiction in the alias along with the crunch. Let me know if I need to change anything
Looks like in this KM game we going for the same idea.....
I'm hoping fatmanspencer will complete his cleric this weekend. If not, well i've played in a game we got through with wands and scrolls. So closing call is monday. I'll have the picks on tuesday at latest. But potentially monday evening.
Same, I'm hoping fatmanspencer finishes up their cleric.
Or it'll be wands, scrolls, potions, and possibly a bard the using all their spell slots on cure spells.
An Elf Slayer (Woodland Sniper), with the Half-succubus template
Don't worry too, much she'll be non-evil

• Races- While I prefer keeping to the races found in the Core Rulebook. If you think you can convince me why some of the more monstrous races would be interested in exploring and clearing the Greenbelt of bandits, feel free to try.

Most of the template's abilities will be sealed since she'll be keeping very quiet about what she really is.
That and she'll be smart enough to keep out of certain "Kingdom roles" as the fallout could be very bad if her secret gets out.
@Azure_Zero- Sorry no 3p content, that includes 3.5 stuff
@Sensen- Yes, you can retrain by spending the time/gold to do so. I also allow a free retcon between 1st and 2nd level if you find something that's just not working.
I figured no 3PP stuff, and 3.5 was something that I see as on the fence between allowed and 3PP, since PF was based on required to be compatible with D&D 3.X.
I'm gonna try for a monstrous character, as it could make for a good spice....for character selection.
I have a few ideas
Though one uses an Old 3.5 PrC "Order of the Bow" (from Complete Warrior, pg 68), which would fit a an idea or two......
The Class would need some minor updating to PF spec...
I'm talking coast to coast (N-S), and coast to coast(E-W).
Like is it the size of PEI, or Australia (I believe most live on the southern and or eastern coasts for Australia).
as the distance of travel is not a likely to be a straight, line, heck it could be curving with the coast of the island, or all the major cities are on one side of the Island, kinda like Australia.
I also could be interested, but I've never heard of the system and I honestly can't buy the book. I'm from Brazil and the current exchange rate from R$ to US$ will make this cost just too much (multiply this by 6 and imagine it is US$ to have an idea).
Well, you could of gotten a community copy, but none are left until someone buys one over asking price.
Question, about how big is this Island?
As I'm sure if it is a bigger then a certain size, that it'll have more a chance of factions/groups (think nation size and level) that might not like each other and or have different laws and rules, or even governance.
The smugglers, led by a man called Tyler Donough, (a 1/2 orc with only faint orcish features (pass for human)), miraculously manage to ferry a small boat every week between Yonford and Rustwall. Think of strong Rustwall liquor ("Gutburn Brandy"), particular brands of wine, special spices used for local specialties (such as special bakery buns, or dishes at a restaurant). Special fabric excellent for expensive clothes.
What is not available in Yonford, is lucrative for Donough and his associates. They stay no more than two days in Rustwall at a time. A risky enterprise, but profitable. If someone wants something particular quicker than travel to and back from another city, they take requests with an added commission %. Donough is all about profit and opportunity, but he's no cutthroat.
There isn't a thieves guild by its definition, but aside from street thieves, a small number have banded to try and steal from Donough once in a while, and sell the goods themselves. 'If someone can't prevent it from being stolen, it's fair game'. Said by Thea Thornton, their 1/2 elf leader.
She's got less reservations about doing whatever needs doing to get the job done, short of killing.
The nastiest of the underbelly, lies with a small group calling themselves "The craftsmen". Highly elusive and secretive, they orchestrate and fabricate situations to blackmail, extort, and destroy, whoever they like. They shy near no methods in their designs. Nobody knows their identities. One time, a council member's good reputation got wrecked, simply for speaking out against them. Off the record, rumor has it a reward is held for those bringing in, or leading to capture of, their members.
Though, I'm also running a character working in said underbelly, the Tiefling Bard (Brazen Deceiver) Nausicaa, though most just call her Leona.
I am interested, but I would appreciate being pointed in the direction of an online char gen site or software. I think at one time I had every book on the approved list, but that was a very long time ago.
I still have all my books from the 3.5 days....
I have a few of cleric ideas, though they are using some content outside of the allowed books like; BoED, RotD, FC:I+II,
and one idea uses a custom template that I used to run a NPC cleric that was a bit paradoxical that my players enjoyed the company of because of their personality.
List of Cleric Ideas:
Draconic Cleric of Kord (also using 5th level Dragon Blood cleric sub and might dip into some wing feats though likely not due to feat limits)
Half-succubus Cleric of Kord (uses Custom template) likely to dip into monk for Sacred fist PrC, though could build as a full cleric.
Now I could modify the above two to be "Radiant servants of Pelor", though I'm more a fan of Kord.
Also quickly saw the soul guard PrC in FC:II
Since players are dealing with evil cleric, there will likely be a lot of undead which means Exalted turning would be a boon....
but since you mention demons, not sure how good the turn undead class feature would be.
Sorry, I thought you where a skin walker, since archetypes should come after the class, as race is before the class, that and weretouched sounds like a race declaration which added to it since I did not see human before weretouched.
I'm surprised that there aren't more from the Runelords recruitment. There were 32 on that list, with 6 taken for each of the 2 tables. I can only match 3 with crunch submitted and 1 of the character ideas....
I'm also from that recruitment, just new character.
