Gameplay thread for Project: Golarion


Feel free to discuss backstories and ask questions here for anyone who has a character submitted.


Hi!

I'm new to PbP GM-ing but I figured I'd run my idea for a game by here and see if it had any interest. I'm obviously willing to change some stuff if many people are against it or wish to tweak some things.

Game: The skeleton of what I have so far is that the game takes place in the far future in a cyberpunk-esque setting. However, the gameplay itself will take place entirely inside of a corrupted hard-light simulation of "Golarion" ruled by a rogue Artificial Intelligence. As "Players" inside the simulation, you will be relying on your physical bodies and abilities. Magic will be a product of the ability to "hack" the simulation, and will be unaffected from the original game rules. Reasons for being in the simulation can vary wildly, from being a government or company agent sent in to rescue someone or "contain" the AI to being an unlucky player who was in the simulation when the AI went rogue and prevented anyone from leaving.

Character Creation:

-Roll for stats, 4d6 drop lowest in order* (first roll is strength, then dex, then con, etc)
-Races: Limited to Human, Skinwalker, and Android. In the future, it's common for Humans to splice animal DNA onto themselves in order to gain beneficial attributes of various kinds. Androids have also attained full consciousness.
-Players start at Level 3
-All official Paizo classes and content allowed, open to allowing some 3rd party feats if requested.
-Starting gear- Choose one "Package" from Adventurer's Armory 2. You can alter the items in the package as detailed in their various descriptions, such as changing which masterwork weapon is included in the holy warrior package, etc.
-Backstory- I'd like a basic backstory. At the point the game begins, the group would know each other and have adventured together at least once before.

Other rules considerations:

Unchained: Subjective Morality and loyalty system to replace alignment
Unchained Disease/Poison Track
Automatic Bonus Progression

The gods don't exist, but the AI has implemented a loyalty system in keeping with what it considers "authenticity" to its mad programming. You may "align" yourself with any single golarion deity at a time, and may gain all the benefits (and restrictions) of worshipping that deity (feats, domains, expanded spell options, etc).

Post Frequency: I'd like at least one post a day during the work-week, with weekend posts being optional.

Let me know if you have any questions! I'm sure I missed something. Thanks for reading through this if you did, and I'm always open to feedback!
