Hey GM Brigs, unfortunately I will have to drop out from the recruitment process.

Falcon's Hollow and the Darkmoon Vale have a ton of potential, so I wish you and the players selected a great game, and hope to see you around the boards!

Sorry to hear that, but thank you for the update. Good luck to you!


Looks like some fun character concepts. I'll dive into these more tomorrow night.

How many characters are you actually looking for? 4, you say? Are you sure you don't want five? Gotta have an odd number, or eery group vote will be a tie! ;)

I'm looking for 4, partly because I wasn't sure how many folks would want to play. If 5 looks like the magic number, we might do 5, but no promises at this time.

Was it the fur trading that gave me away? :D

Maybe. I may imagine then speaking with Sam Elliot’s voice.

The small village of Falcon’s Hollow is a wild place, perched at the edge of civilized lands. Nestled in the shadow of Droskar’s Crag, the people of Falcon’s Hollow are hearty and stern. Theirs is a life of hardships, broken only occasionally by a handful of festivals and the infrequent merchant caravan.

They face constant adversity from both the wilderness and the wiles of man. Wolves nip at their heels and cutpurses ply at their pockets. It is a testament to their strength that they even manage to survive at all.

Falcon’s Hollow has always had to rely on itself to solve its problems. Meanwhile, the uncaring lumber barons squeeze the common folk for every last copper, deaf to their pleas. Now the hacking coughs of the sick are heard throughout town. The plague has come to Falcon’s Hollow and the town’s leaders can’t be bothered to stop it.

I am looking for 4 players to be the saviors of Falcon's Hollow.

About Me:
I've been playing ttrpgs for the past 10 years. Started with PF1e, moved to 5e and Starfinder, and I'd really like to get back into PF1e. I have GM'd live games and run some adventure paths and one-shots, but I am new to PbP. As a GM I enjoy RP (can't do voices, which thankfully isn't a problem on PbP) working with players to build memorable stories.
In real life, I'm an analyst.

What to expect from me:
Like I said, I'm new to PbP so this is a bit of an experiment for me. I've realized that checking the boards is easy, posting on them can be difficult. My goal is to do one post per day. I've done my research, read the guides provided and even asked around for suggestions on what I can do to be a good PbP GM, and will try and live up to that.
Regarding RAW vs Rule of Cool, I try to stick to RAW out of fairness, but I do try to reward and acknowledge creative problem solving.
Regarding dice, for the sake of keeping things moving, I will roll initiative. Depending on circumstances, other rolls such as saves, certain checks, such as perception, may be made on player's behalf if needed.

What I expect from players:
Consistent posting and communication are the biggest thing. Other than that I want us to have fun and build a great story together.

Character Creation:
Level: Players start at level 1
Races: Core is preferable. Anything outside of that, just run it by me.
Classes: Anything except gunslinger, summoner, ninja, samurai or any of the occult classes
Attributes: 20 point buy.
Traits: 2 traits
Skills: Background skills are in use.
HP: Max at 1st level
Starting gold: Roll, or accept the average for your class, whichever is greater.

No 3pp material.

Application Requirements:

-Present a character concept (full crunch not required, but I may ask follow up questions)
-Explain why your character is in Falcon's Hollow
-Background
-Name, Alignment (no evil), favorite color, etc.

Recruitment will stay open for ~2 weeks, closing at midnight on 09/10.

This is not a PFS game.
