Please put all out of game discussion here.
First of all throughout the entire game, please give feedback if the game is not going how you think it should in terms of enjoyment or style. Always open to criticism. I know most of you personally so hit me up whenever. It would be awesome if everyone would post once a day. If you can do more great. If not completely understand real life. When we get to combat, please post your action without waiting for everyone in front of you to act. I will summarize the best I can at the end of rounds, or at enemy actions. This will keep the game moving.
I'm hoping we can use this to discuss which game to play, party makeup, and character ideas. Do you guys know each other? Are you involved with your backstories? Also if you guys can come up with like a paragraph about your character and some inner motivations or personal quests, pbp format is a great way for those kinds of personal stories to come to life!
We are currently looking at two different adventure paths. Serpent's Skull and Kingmaker. We would need to come to a consensus on which one to play. Nick has wanted to Kingmaker for a while and we are trying to play in one currently but we don't know if it is actually running. So if it isn't I know he would vote for that, and if it is he would rather play the other one. If there is another adventure path that sounds way better let me know! We can look at that one instead.

Great advice on PBP that help make the game fun.
Player's guide to Serpent's Skull
Kingmaker Player's Guide
Starting Level:1
Starting Wealth: Average for chosen class or you can roll in thread.
Ability generation system:15 point buy
Hit point generation:Max first level, after that average round up or roll
Class:Any from books allowed EXCEPT: Gunslinger, Summoner.
Race: Any core, non-core rarely, but looking at 10 rp points or less races from advanced race guide. I don't want someone to be a certain race only because they have the two bonus stats to their class min/max and a dump stat in their class dump stat. If there is overwhelming reason from a story reason you want to play a race let's talk about it.
traits:2 traits allowed, one has to be a campaign trait. no drawbacks
Source Material restrictions:Core, APG, ACG, Advanced Race Guide, Ultimate Magic, Ultimate Combat. Specific race splatbooks are possible as well such as Dwarves of Golarion.
Posting formats:
Let's put all ooc chat and dice rolls in spoilers if we can, and don't be afraid to put conditionals in spoilers if you want specific things to happen as reactions to things that could happen.
Lee sin runs away like a scared little hamster screaming "IT'S SO HIDEOUS"
If we can keep spoken word as bolded with quotes:
"I am currently speaking"
Inner thoughts as italics
I am currently thinking
out of game messages as ooc in spoilers
Non common languages, feel free to run them through a translator or gibberish and spoiler it underneath.
"Warum hast du ein Apfel?"
"Why do you have an apple?"
Other oddities:
We will use roll20 as our combat map software, it is not necessary but helps me out between your posts to realize where you want to be. We won't use maps for everything either as some combats do not need them.
When we create a character on paizo, you can create an alias and just copy paste your character from whatever source you have your info on into the about section. In your name, race, and class we will be putting information that makes it easy for me to reference quickly without having to go into your alias specifically. I'll show how to do that when we get characters going.
If I've forgotten anything let me know!
