I am currently gaming with a PbP group that can run through a PFS scenario in 1-2 weeks, and with plenty of flavor posting from all involved. Just wondering if there are other comparable groups out there in the PbP world?

Orrrrrr......if you would like to talk about how to get your gaming experience sped up without losing any of the richness of the PbP experience, you can post here, as well.

Hello all!

Currently seeking 2-3 players to continue our Curse of the Crimson Throne game. We will be continuing at the very start of Book 2, Seven Days to the Grave. If you are interested, please roll up characters as follows:

Character Attributes:

4th level
20 point buy
4,500 gold
2 traits (1 'can' be a campaign trait...I am not requiring it. If you choose a campaign trait, be sure to include it in your back story)
Neutral or Good Alignments only
A back story about why you are in Korvosa in the aftermath of King Eodred's untimely death.

Player Attributes:

Daily Posting - (Life comes up, and advance notice on absences can be worked around. Numerous absences will result in a dismissal. I want to keep a fairly quick clip.)
Flavor - No need for a book with each post, but we're writing for each other's entertainment...so make it entertaining, please.
Respect - I'm going to make mistakes, your fellow players are, and you are, as well. Please be respectful when pointing them out and gracious when they are pointed out to you.

A little about our current party:

We currently have two front-liners, so more muscle up front is not a need. I won't discount your fighter concept if you have a good back story and build, but just a warning up front. There is no deadline for recruitment, but it's not first come, first serve, either.

I look forward to seeing your concepts, and thank you in advance!

Looking for a replacement character in a Rise of the Runelords Anniversary Edition game. Characters just reached 2nd level. Currently there are:

Sunday Daud - The brutish bloodrager
Tal Darkariel - The socially-challenged yet charming wizard
Jessica DuMorne - The lovely cleric of Shelyn
Delendir Farnes - The grizzled ranger

Most aspects of a party are covered by the group, so they are looking for someone to flesh things out. Which means that there are really no restrictions on what 'type' of character you should submit. Here are the build rules:

20 point buy
400 starting gold
Core races only
Paizo classes excluding Summoner (I reserve the right to turn down completely min-maxed creations)
Neutral or Good alignment only

Also there are these requirements:

Ability to post at least once per day, including weekends.
Ability to roleplay and add to the game on more than a mechanics level.

If I've left anything uncovered, please feel free to point it out. I look forward to seeing your submissions!

Looking for a replacement character for a cleric who had to drop due to RL issues catching up to him. Current party exists of an armored hulk barbarian, dervish dancer bard, regular bard, and a sorcerer, all at the tail end of level 1. A healer type would of course be preferred, but if you are spectacular enough we might accept something different. I will note that all things being equal, we will choose a healer type replacement.

That being said, here's a few other things:

1) I expect once a day posting, no exceptions for weekends. Things happen, and if they do, give me the courtesy of a heads up so we can make arrangements to DMPC your character until your return.
2) Respect your fellow players and me. You can disagree or make a point, but don't be a jerk about it, as the Paizo website implores you.
3) I try to accommodate all styles, so don't feel compelled to roleplay more or less than your fellows. This is all of your stories, after all, and I wish for all of you to be entertained!
4) I will roll initiative and post it for combat, then EVERYONE posts their actions. Combat is a fluid thing, and I treat it as such. Therefore, I will not tell you what the enemy is doing if he goes before you in combat. I will resolve a full round of combat after getting everyone's submissions. Don't worry, I will make sound tactical decisions in case your action gets preempted. You always have the option to state contingencies, such as 'I attack A, unless B moves up to me, in which case I attack B'.
5) I will roll initiatives to help speed up combat.

I look forward to your submissions, and we hope to make a choice relatively soon!

It's the morning of the Autumn Equinox. The day of the Swallowtail Festival has arrived in Sandpoint, and it promises to be an exciting event. There are numerous games of chance and strength and cleverness, all the food and drink vendors will compete for a top prize at lunch (giving away their wares for free in the bargain, lunch only), and of course the Swallowtail Butterflies will be released at noon. To end the ceremony, at dusk Father Zantus will consecrate the rebuilt temple of Desna. This will end the ceremony, although the fun and boisterous laughter will proceed far into the night.

The day starts with the slightest of chills, but as the sun starts its slow climb up the eastern sky, the cold is quickly expelled and it promises to be a warm, beautiful day. Perfect for a day of relaxation and entertainment. The locals have gathered in force to celebrate this festival in particular, as the new Cathedral is finished after a couple of years of hard work and hard spent coin by the town.

As stated, please feel free to RP. I will RP NPC's if you need an RP buddy, but I really want you guys to at least be peripherally aware of one another before things get rolling.

Here's a place to discuss things.

Gameplay Thread is now open.

Hello there, all! I am opening recruitment for a party of 5 for the RotRL Anniversary Edition AP. In the interests of stating goals, expectations, requirements, etc. here is what I am looking for:

1) Relatively fast paced. I will require at least 1 post a day. More would be preferable, to keep things moving. This is the normal day approach for this game, folks, so if you're on vacation or have a big test coming up, just let me know and we'll work something out.
2) Core Classes and Races only. I'm just not familiar enough with the other content to be comfortable with it. There's plenty of flavor with just the 11 base classes.
3) RAI before RAW. I will try not to penalize your build, but no rage cycling, etc.
4) There is definitely plenty of combat in this AP, but I am going to encourage story-building and role-playing, as well. If you want a hack-n-slash game, I encourage you to look elsewhere.
5) Obvious min-maxing will be frowned upon. I realize your fighter should be strong and your wizard should be smart, but if you have a fighter with an 18 str, 16 con, and 7 cha and int, I will probably not pick you.
6) The point is to have fun, for both me and you. I will make errors, both in your favor and not. I don't mind you bringing them up, but unless they significantly alter a situation, I will likely let them stand.

With that being said, here's the character creation guidelines:

1) Core Rulebook only, as far as classes and races. I'm open to feats, traits, etc. from other sourcebooks, but please include the full text if you choose to do so.
2) 2 traits. I'd prefer 1 from the RotRL AP, but it is not required.
3) 20 point buy. No ability under 10 before racial mods.
4) Neutral or Good only.
5) A background explaining why your character is in Sandpoint for the Swallowtail Festival.
6) Average starting gold for your class.

If I am missing something or you want clarification, please let me know!
