From the ashes of Thassilon, an ancient power shall rise again!

The ancient empire of the runelords may be long dead, yet the legacy of Thassilon continues to haunt the frontier realm of Varisia. With the rise of one runelord only narrowly thwarted, Korvosa reeling after the curse of the Crimson Throne nearly brought the city to its knees, and Riddleport rebuilding after a close call with a falling star, the people of Varisia fear that the greatest threat to their land has yet to play its hand. When agents of the newest Pathfinder Society lodge in Magnimar learn of a fragmented artifact scattered throughout the lands of old Thassilon, it falls to a new band of heroes to step in and gather up the seven fragments of this Shattered Star. For if the greatest prize of Thassilon's first ruler cannot save Varisia... what can?

So I bought the Humble Bundle just for this adventure path, and I am looking for 4-5 players to bring through it. To apply, post with a character name, concept, and backstory at the very least, but timely stats would be appreciated.

Character creation guidelines:

Starting Level 1
Max starting wealth for class
25 point buy
All classes allowed, but I am not very familiar with the Occult classes, with the exception of Kineticist
All Core and Featured races allowed
Two traits, one of which must be campaign trait

If you've been selected, post here! I'd like to start the campaign Monday, so please take this time to get to talk amongst each other, establish existing character relationships, and what have you. Also, if you haven't, make sure you read up on the Reign of Winter Player's Guide. I'm gonna drop in with some notes either tonight or tomorrow as well.

I am looking to run five adventurers through the Reign of Winter AP so they can put an end to this miserable winter once and for all. This would be my first time GMing Pathfinder in a play-by-post format, but I am currently GMing three games IRL--including another game of RoW.

If you are interested, please post here with your character concept, including race/class, as well as a short backstory (or a long one, if you are so inclined). I encourage all applicants to familiarize themselves with the free Reign of Winter player’s guide.

Some character creation guidelines and other notes:

-Core and Featured races are allowed
-20 point buy
-Maximum starting gold for the class
-2 starting traits of different types (campaign traits are optional)
-All classes are allowed, but I have a strong preference to keep the Occult classes to Occult-themed games
-This adventure can be deadly, even in book one; I don’t set out to kill PCs, but I also won’t pull my punches
-I expect all players, and myself, to post at least once a day
