I don't know the history of the drow on golarion ( forgotten realms drow are always the first that come to mind ), other than that they're demon worshippers and generally bad-asses from the underdark. the penalty system is there to let you make something you like, at a suitable balance at lower levels ( my little experiment ).
for bios, don't post them. if anything just post a description of your character, and if you can link to pictures or whatever else to enhance your description, great. save the bios for after introductions. I've set up a journal to use to record your chronicles as you go. It'll be a big help when a bit of time passes and you want to remember what happened during the campaign. I'll share access now, but just post your descriptions. The Summer Chronicles
rovagug...ok.... so an evil party?
doomsday apocalypse cult?
its a fine concept. i'm just asking how you'll be motivated to do anything but destroy things and slip towards evil...

A priest of Rovagug makes no contribution to normal society; at best, they may be (unreliable) mercenaries[11]. They typically spend their day hunting beings and things to kill and destroy, saving only that which can be utilized in creating greater destruction. The hierarchy is based solely on raw destructive might, and to rise in the hierarchy, another must be thrown down.[citation needed]
Church services are brutal and primitive, featuring sapient sacrifices, stomping, shouting, and breaking valuables.[25]
Temples & Shrines
Churches to The Beast are banned in nearly every civilized city, and his worship is suppressed in most nations.[2] Secret shrines and sacrificial sites may be recognized by the presence of the famous Fanged Maw (seen on this page), or the less common symbol, a claw surrounded by a spiral.

We could invent our own theme, like we're all cursed by cold or something.
of course you can. i'm just innane and constantly making suggestions in case anyone's having a brain dead day.
btw/ do you guys prefer Grippli Master or Goat Master as your GM for this game?
or want something more winter themed? I can use White Wolf Master right, they're not publishing anymore?
edwin realizes the brown one is speaking abyssal, the green one says the same apology, but in infernal.
Leo turns loremonger, spouting off the information up to DC 29, you've all have an opportunity to act, as his CSI monologue finishes, his whispers reaching your ear via message spell in common. These creatures seem quite keen though, and you feel as if they've heard you and their mute posture seems to somehow proudly acknowledge the details as you spout them out. before 16 goes. what would those of you who act before Brown like to do?

more to come. but i'm not going to reveal it until i see the rolls or identify is cast.
reading over the book, it details the long history of the Sons of the Pale Horsemen, and recounts their efforts to transform this world into a daemon's playground. This rarest of tomes is made utterly unique by the last page of text within. The book makes plain the ritual necessary to call Vetra-Kali back to the mortal realms.
the ritual:
on the back page, a ritual is detailed to break the seal placed by the Victor, break the Silver Seal and call forth Vetra-Kali.
Quote:
- Behold our shame that we, the Sons of the Pale Horseman, failed in our darkest hour to defend our prince the undying and ever malevolent Vetra-Kali Eats-the-Eyes. But I have seen it! I have seen the road to repentenance! 666 prayers. Three per day will break the hated Seal. With each prayer bathe the seal in unholy water and intone the dirge.
At the stroke of midnight each day call forth the Supplication to Darkness. Pray to the darkness so that we shall be forgiven. Upon the first midnight make the first sacrifice -- one of our own blood -- so that Vetra-Kali will know we are repentant.
At the first light of each dawn call forth the Cursing of the Light. Answer the spread of the shining lord’s light with our unyielding defiance. Upon the 111th Curse make the second sacrifice -- a true believer of Mitra -- so that the cursed god of the invaders will know that we fear him not and that his power to hold our master at bay is ending.
At dusk as darkness returns each day cry forth the Call Across the Void. Recite the name of Vetra-Kali so that he may hear us and return. With the final Call offer the third sacrifice -- one of the Victor’s own blood. By the same blood that caged him so shall our master be freed.
Let ye with wisdom understand. Once the final prayer is uttered upon the 222nd dusk, Vetra-Kali will begin his long traverse across the great wheel. At the stroke of midnight on that day he will emerge into his Sanctum and the Seal shall shatter.
Blessed day! Be ready, my brothers. His eyes have been stolen from him. Return them and the Prince will honor ye with one task for each.
For the Eye of Vigilance ask only for his mercy upon we mortals and plead that he do ye and yours no harm. For his wroth will be great.
For the Eye of Hatred ask for his greatest gift -- the Tears of Achlys so that once more every corner of the world may know his mercy.
For the Eye of Withering ask what ye will for in his gratitude he must answer your charge.
And then behold, the Prince restored. All shall know his blessings of pestilence and despair.
-R.Kappelbrenner
The Dirges specifies exactly how a sacrifice must be made to Vetra-Kali. The victim must be placed upon his altar and there have their heart cut out while still alive. The heart is then placed in one of the three bowls that the statue is described as holding. .
wribbit. the acrobatics is just for moving in the darkness at full speed. if you go half speed you don't have to make the check. its DC 10, +2 for the uneven terrain of the cramped crooked stairs. so dc 12
yeah, one thing i hate is i can't move things on the ipad either. moved you up to just outside the darkness. you could go in if at full speed, but w/ that acrobatics you'd just fall.. may as well stop outside and move up next turn. from the directions Uldar is giving, its crowded up near him.
@uldar, sacred touch ? is it a supernatural or spell-like ability from the trait? i.e. will you need to make a concentration check while grappling to do it?
Auke will be joining us, don't mind the noise of the tomb opening up and someone else coming in. if we're quiet a few hours, he'll stumble into the darkmantle on his own.
@moose: you hear a ::whoosh:: as something plummets down the side of the stairs, a click as it catches on the stone just a little bit across from you, then you hear it, the thing in the darkness that tried to grab you, struggling with Adinomo, that nice gnome. Gnomes are always so pleasant, but they like burrows and being in tight spaces underground... ::shiver::
race: using the race creation guidelines from the advanced race guide to make an anthropomorphic human/animal race like the teenage mutant ninja turtles or some other human/animal hybrid.
setting: sci-fi/future. with the technology guide from paizo, there's ways to model far future campaigns. TMNT had a dimensional/time travel sourcebook. I'm thinking something like that where the mutants are created and used for space exploration teams by society in 3014/3015, or an After The Bomb type setting where radiation and genetic engineering have created these mutants and the human population has been decimated.
classes: since its sci fi/future, its harder to rationalize the magic, but i think mixing some sorcery in and stuff in the future would be fun. Easiest to integrate are nonmagical base classes: fighter, rogue. if we go towards a more Warhammer 40k universe type feel, then magic isn't that rare, if we go more gritty, then we can push things with semi-magical classes like ranger, barbarian, monk, paladin, and just tone down the magic inherent or go with archetypes that replace the spell-casting and supernatural abilities ( non-magic ranger, martial artist monk, i'm sure there's one for paladin too? ) , expert could be expanded to a PC class with technology crafting bonus feats and abilities. I'm in favor of a magical sci-fi romp through time and space.
houserule: if anyone goes evasion, i'd like to try out a house rule that evasion is a 1/day daily at the level its attained ( +1 /day /3 levels beyond ) where on they take 50% less damage on a successufl reflex save. [ so 1/4 on a successful save, for the Improved Evasion it would also be usable to get 1/2 damage on a failed save, but its still a consumable ability ]
