I'd be interested! I'll keep an eye out for the recruitment thread

apologies for the inactivity recently. should be back to full form today!

What amount of gold do we have to spend on items?

no - two separate concepts, was just unsure which i wanted to delve into more. Looks like mastermind rogue is the choice.

hey everyone! i should be able to get my character built tomorrow - renovations are going on in the house but my room should be done and back to normal tomorrow. Just wanted to ask your guys preference - mastermind rogue or bomber alchemist? I’m leaning mastermind rogue but figured I should ask.

so - this thing still happening or what?

Just tell me what you want to play and why, please.

I was leaning towards a roguish character, with a secondary idea of a alchemist vibe. The personality for both would be more neurotic in nature, as for backstory I would have to read more into the setting and what has transpired so far. I've played a gunslinger and an oracle in PF2E, so i'm trying to branch out with these ideas.

i’ll start drafting up a character. what amount of gold/ wealth level should i aim for?

hello! is this recruitment still open?

Interested!

When are you planning to start?

Woohoo!

"Ye're all lookin' pretty shabby these days -- maybe you could use some good dwarven armour, eh?"

Some nicer armor would be much appreciated, thank you sir.

Quominar then turns to the rest of the group.
I'm ready to leave whenever you fellows are. I have a feeling the sooner we hit the road the better chance we have of perhaps finding these trainees, and certainly a higher chance of finding them in one piece.

Yeah, I was looking for four players. :)

well, lets see if we can scrounge up another player lol

well, it seems like we have three players (Toc, Myself, and Sirrus). Tok seems to be completed as am I, Sirrus just needs feedback on backstory and then I believe we'd have 3 completed characters. I don't know the amount you're looking for, but 3 is a good number

just checking in!

any news on this?

Hey all! sorry for the inactivity recently, was in Florida for my cousin's bar mitzvah and was unable to check/post. Unfortunately I will be unavailable again next weekend, as my grandmother passed away this Friday. her funeral is on Sunday and we will be driving back down to Florida for her funeral. I should return on Monday, though it may take me a day or two to continue posting. If anything important/pressing happens during the times I am away, feel free to NPC me or just ghost me along.

I didn't want to bog down the Recruitment channel with this:

Is that unreasonable for a 1st level spell (for example, there are cantrips that will do 1/2 of this).

The main point of contention as far as I'm aware is that it is really powerful as a reaction to do. Anything that the enemy succeeds on? Reroll. Anything coming up that may be difficult? Give the person making the check advantage. It seems minor, but it is a real pain for the DM to have to constantly reroll whenever they may hit a player just because of a reaction spell. Granted, it is limited by spell slots and 1 reaction/round. The reason I asked is it synergizes incredibly well with order cleric (when i target allies they can make a reaction attack, silvery barbs targets an ally). However, I do understand Aeshuura (and many other DM's) perspective on Silvery Barbs, and it's hard to disagree with in practice. Another spell i was interested in was Vortex Warp, which allows me to basically teleport 1 or 2 of you guys into combat and let one of you make an attack immediately (due to order cleric).

Quick question for you guys. I know it is an AL -> homebrew/non-AL, but are spell restrictions and things like that still in place? Only asking because there are some spells from Strixhaven that I was looking to choose for Quominar but just want to clarify the real rule set we're using.

I would be interested! If you're still looking for/accepting applicants I'd love to throw my hat in the ring.

Well, in that case - let me make sure this is alright with everybody. Order Domain Cleric has an ability that makes it so whenever I target an ally with a spell, they may immediately use their reaction to make a Weapon Attack against an enemy I can see. The exact wording is: "If you cast a spell with a spell slot of 1st level or higher and target an ally with the spell, that ally can use their reaction immediately after the spell to make one weapon attack against a creature of your choice that you can see.
If the spell targets more than one ally, you choose the ally who can make the attack."
This may make PbP a bit confusing, so I understand if you guys would want me to choose a different subclass. Just let me know.

Ah, just realized it breaks PH + 1. That's unfortunate. Back to the drawing board for a bit lol.

Working on an Order Cleric/Divine Soul Sorcerer Half-Elf. I've been meaning to try this type of character for a while just never got a chance in my home games so I'm pretty excited. I should have a character done by the end of the day for further approval. Thanks all.

What would be the format for creating a character? I know this used to be an AL thing but should I follow the AL format to make a character or just hop right in with a level 5 character?
It seems like we have a pretty heavy martial twinge in the group so i am thinking most likely a cleric or a divine soul sorcerer to fill the full caster + healer archetype that’s needed.

Hello all! Throwing my hat in the ring as a player in case any other roles in the party are needed - let me know if that’s alright. 5E is my main system and i’d love to get into a PbP game with it. Thanks!

As Phantom said, happy to wait. Hope school clears up for you!

I'm cookin up a concept for a Gnomish Oracle outcast from society for being.. y'know.. all oracle-y lol. Should be done soon.

Just to clarify - we don't have to play a psionic character? Looking at the options and none really interest me - I may look at some of the psionic-focused base class archetypes if that would be alright.

dotting - need to find a free pdf of ultimate psionics or something before I devote anything to this

Dotting. Interested in playing - might take some time to think of a concept i'm into.

I'm interested!

important to note - i do intend on making Bjørn a Fighter/Barbarian multiclass, if that matters to anybody.

starting gold: 5d4 ⇒ (2, 2, 4, 2, 1) = 11x10=110. sheesh.

If you are all still looking for anything:

14, 13, 15, 14, 16, 12 is the final array, without any racial bonuses.

Hey EltonJ i'd be interested in playing in this campaign. Still any spots open or all filled up?

Ability 1: 5d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 3, 4, 4) = 15 = 11
Ability 2: 5d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 3, 2, 1) = 11 = 8
Ability 3: 5d6 ⇒ (4, 4, 1, 5, 3) = 17 = 13
Ability 4: 5d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 6, 4, 4) = 20 = 15
Ability 5: 5d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 2, 5, 3) = 15 = 12
Ability 6: 5d6 ⇒ (1, 2, 6, 3, 2) = 14 = 11
Ability 7: 5d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 6, 4, 5) = 21 = 16

so, 16, 15, 13, 12, 11, 11. not terrible!
