On the 3rd of Neth, night begins to fall on the town of Kassen on the shores of the Tourondel River. The harvest season is working its way toward a close. The air is beginning to feel the chill of winter coming on and 5 young adventurers gather their belongings and prepare themselves for the next day. The ceremony of the lighting of the Everflame will begin the next day at noon. Mayor Uptal has requested that all of the young people of the town meet him at the Seven Silvers for dinner this evening.
Mingle where you want, once everyone gets situated, we'll get started at the meeting with the mayor.
I want to play an AP. That is the short version. Expanding on that, I have played DnD/Pathfinder for 15ish years but have only DMed a couple sessions. I’ve gotten into PbP over the past couple years and I think it enhances my roll play and I've enjoyed that. I’ve got a couple friends that would also like to do another PbP game. With my desire to do an AP, it means that if I really want to have a chance, I need to DM because there are lots of us looking to play one. That said, an AP is an intimidating prospect for me and whoever plays with me so I thought, I’ll start with a shorter module first and see how it goes. So, this…
Crypt of the Everflame
Will be a try out of sorts. It will give some people who don’t know me a chance to get to know me and vice versa. It will also let me build some DMing muscle. So the Goal is to get through this module and then to see how everyone feels about the group.
So, with that out of the way, let’s get to character creation.
Background:
I’m not looking for a novel. I’ve thrown together a Player’s Guide which is mostly just pulled straight from the book for this module. A couple short paragraphs explaining your connection to 2ish people (including a mentor) in town plus some personality traits would be sufficient. Everyone should be a current resident of Kassen’s Hold or live in the nearby area seeing as this is a rite of passage for the young people of the town.
Crunch:
Level: This module starts at level 1 and will only go up to level 3 max so don't work to hard planning very much.
Races: Most common would be Core races, specifically human with a smaller population of elves, dwarves and halflings, but all Paizo races if you can make it work Background wise
Class: All Paizo classes allowed. We’ve got one Cleric already but I have no real worry about class balance except I will mention that it will be helpful to have a trapfinder...
Traits: 2 with the option of a drawback for a 3rd.
Alignment: Any non-evil
Hit Points: Max HP first level
Ability scores: 20 pt buy
Gold: average for class
No need for an alias but I’d like final submissions all in one post for ease of viewing even if it means repeating information. I’ve got 1-2 players already lined up and I’m looking for 2-4 more with a goal for a total of 4-5.
Posting expectations: 1/day is ideal. Weekends can be hard and work schedules sometimes are difficult to work around. At least check in to let me know you're busy and don't have time.
Dead line: May 15, 9:00PM
I reserve the right to close recruitment early in the unlikely event that the number of submissions becomes overwhelming.

The ceremony of the lighting of the Everflame will begin the next day at noon. Those of their number (and their families) have been given rooms in the Seven Silvers by Mayor Uptal so that morning travel is not a concern. The common room of Seven Silvers is a natural gathering place and any of the adventurers that arrive there are provided drinks by the other patrons.
Mingle if you want, get used to posting, do your thing. The adventure will "officially" start with the ceremony on the next day at noon.
