When I was making this alias I accidentally clicked the button to give it one of the faction icons. This character isn't for PFS or even Pathfinder, so I don't really want to have the faction icon in front of her name. But it seems like there's no way to get rid of the icon? I can select a different one, but can't just deselect the Dark Archive faction. Is there a way to remove the faction icon? 
I am playing an evil inquisitor of Asmodeus. No one else in the party really knows how to heal, so I was thinking of taking Cure light wounds as a spell next level. But I'm kind of confused about how positive energy works. Cure wounds spells channel positive energy. The cleric's class description says that good clerics channel positive energy, which heals, and evil clerics channel negative energy, which harms. Inquisitors don't have that "channel energy" class feature, but am I still barred from learning the spell, because I'm evil? 
Each of you recently received a cryptic note from Aleanor Pathsteader, an elven ranger whom you've worked with in the past. It read: Meet me at the Sign of the Fair Warrior in Stormport, on the next new moon. Something extraordinary is happening, and you need to know about it. The ranks of the Elect are swelling. – Aleanor Pathsteader Stormport is a bustling mid-size free city on the edge of the northern sea; its population is mostly human, but with sizable minorities of elves, half-elves, and halflings. The Sign of the Fair Warrior is one of the city's nicer inns, owned by a heavily scarred old human veteran known as Handsome John (the nickname is presumably ironic). You've all made your way here with one day to spare; the next new moon, when you await Aleanor, is tomorrow. The tavern area of the Fair Warrior is, as usual, filled with the hustle and bustle of people chatting and the scent of pipe smoke. The prevailing subject of discussion is the unseasonable snows the land has been having lately: after a harsh winter, the relief of spring's arrival was shut down by some cold snaps and snow flurries, and folks are worried about the farmers' crops.
Hello :O We can get gameplay started once everyone's finalized (at least most of) their character sheets and so on.
Hey, so I am looking to try PbP GMing for the first time. I have a reasonable amount of experience as a GM (in non-PbP) and have recently been participating in PbP here as a player and really enjoyed it. There's this adventure I've been tooling around with that I'm really excited about so I thought this would be a good way to give it a try! I am pretty new to Pathfinder but have a very thorough knowledge of 5th edition, so that is the system I want to use for this. This particular adventure would be my own conversion of an AD&D 2e module "A Darkness Gathering." It is the first in a trilogy of modules (the Monstrous Arcana: Illithid Trilogy) but can be played by itself. So my hope is to go through this first adventure and then, depending on if it's successful and player interest, move to the rest. Obviously as you can guess from it being called the Illithid trilogy, there is a focus on mind flayers as the enemies. I don't know how many people here would be interested in this so this is an interest check / possible recruitment!
character creation:
You are a group of fairly experienced adventurers who live in the bustling mid-sized city of Stormport. You all know each other at least somewhat; you might be long-time friends or have just recently met, it is up to the players to decide. One thing you have in common is a connection to a particular individual, the elven ranger Aleanor Pathsteader. She is a stalwart defender of the innocent and a trusted ally for all of you: perhaps she saved your life, or fought beside you in the past, or taught you something about adventuring. One morning at the tail end of an unseasonably bitter winter, you received a strange letter from her inviting you to meet her at a particular tavern in the city upon the next new moon. When you pursue this you will become involved in unraveling a tangled plot that goes far beyond just the city of Stormport...
Starting Level: 6. For those who have not had the chance to do much beyond low-level play this should be a fun opportunity to make a more powerful character. Stats would be point buy. Allowed Races/Classes/Etc: Anything officially published is perfectly fine. Anything 3rd party or Unearthed Arcana would have to be looked at and approved by me on a case-by-case basis (I am quite permissive though and can work with you if you have a particular concept in mind). Alignment: This story is probably more suited to good-ish characters, but I am fine with any alignment as long as you are willing to a) work with the rest of the party b) stop a destructive illithid plot. If you are interested in applying please do not make a full character sheet, I wouldn't want anyone to spend the time it takes to stat out a level 6 character and then not be able to get involved! I would rather just have you tell me the basic name/race/class (e.g. "My idea is Bilbo Baggins, NG halfling rogue with the thief archetype") and then a short paragraph or two about the character's personality and any other details of your idea. Let me know if you'd be interested or if you have any other questions. |
