Hi.
Although I think this is a very cool campaign idea I'm going to withdraw. I feel as though H.R. Woodward doesn't really fit here and seeing that the deadline is right around the corner, I'm going to make the decision of who gets in easier by leaving. Keep me in mind if a spot opens up or you guys start a new campaign! Thanks and bye!


Alright! Character sheet done! Will post it when I get to a computer instead of a tablet, because I don't really trust this tablet! Does that make sense? I don't know, whatever!


Bah! Not again! I wrote Woodward's backstory down but forgot to save it and paizo deleted it! *Cries*


I see. I thought I saw Greenapple on your map of Veda, somewhere in the middle but my tablet sucks so I can't zoom in very far, so perhaps I read it wrong.
I also wanted to ask if food was necessary and if we had to buy clothes with our starting money or do we just have clothes that have no special effects for free. I guess I'm kinda asking how realistic this campaign idea is going to be?


Got more questions.
How long have the colonies been in place?
and can I get some info on the town of Greenapple?
Sorry for all the questions, but thanks for answering them!


Thanks for answering my questions, but I should have worded my second question better... I meant not a place to learn magic but an actual college like in real life, and if not at least a place to learn long and extensive history? As I said before, Woodward is a learned and we'll read man, and having a higher education would really fit the character, but if not, he just had very smart parents ( which I'm planning for him to have had anyway ). Anyway I just have to buy equipment and write a longer background and H.R. Woodward will be ready!


I have a couple questions about the world.
First, how common is magic in human communities?
And second, is there some sort of college or place of higher education, or would learning would just be what your parents knew?
Third, are there librarys?
And last, what is the technology level of the world?
I had a few ideas for Woodward's backstory but I wanted to make sure that I can even use them!
Thanks!


HP is Max hit dice + CON modifier, correct? Or do you have a different way? Also could I raise a score above 18 useing racial modifiers?

H.R. Woodward!

A character concept I've been tossing around in my head for awhile, he's a honest, mild mannered man in his mid-40s. I was thinking he is an author, looking for inspiration for his next book, and has concluded that the best way to do that is going on an adventure him self! After a bit of thought, I think he would be an Investigator with the Sleuth archetype. The problem is... I've never played Investigator before, but thought, to heck with it, I'll try!

Just to clarify, this is NOT an entry for the special scholar/archaeologist spot. Yes, I'm planning Woodward would be one smart cookie but he would be focusing on skills and RP rather than combat. As for a slightly more detailed backstory I was thinking that Woodward pretty much bribed the others to let him come. This explains why a well-to-do author has a limit on the money he can use to buy equipment. I feel like this also explains the level one rule because why else would they let and almost completely unexperienced author on, other than his promises that his knowledge will be useful (before his fantasy and "sci-fi" books got him a moderate sum of gold, he would write history books on the orc wars and fall of the Royal family for money) and his receipts from his fencing class?
