Hey there, hoping to get back into hosting PFS games (2e and 1e). Looking for players and DMS (so I can occasionally play) in the MKE area. I ran PFS at a LGS for 7 years, but the pandemic ended that, and also the LGS closed. I am happy to help new players as well.
Hello, I host an adventure path game every Sunday night, and had a player drop recently. I am hoping to find 1 or 2 people who would like to join in. We have just finished Strange Aeons and will be starting a new path soon. Please let me know if you are interested.
That's fair criticism, this is my first time running PbP, so struggling to find the right balance to keep the story moving while interacting with the characters. I'll keep trying, and please don't feel bad form complaining, with out feed back I can't improve.
Fal spots three housecat-sized beetles that are a dull brown color brightened by two glowing green-yellow spots on their carapaces. The cavern itself is a 25 foot long by 15 foot wide beach, with the five foot ledge dividing the underground beach from the rest of the cave system. the beetles are crawling towards the group having emerged from the above the ledge, and are thus 15 feet away.
Initiative: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (7) + 0 = 7
After catching up with Val, the cleric of Brigh for Torch arrives, ready to cast water breathing upon the group. He leads you all to the shore of the Black Hill lagoon. "Brigh, maker goddess, please give these brave heroes the ability to travel beneath the waves and find what ale's our city." Finishing this prayer, he touches each of you. You can feel the magic inside you. "The spell will last you a day, and then I will have to cast it again. Please be quick.". With that he motions to the lagoon, and you descend into the water. After a short swim you arrive in a cavern. Dampness hangs in the air of this cave, condensing into heavy moisture on the slick, stone walls. The calm, dark waters wind around to the east up north, along a stony, soot-scarred beach. A five-foot-high ledge sporting several stalagmites rises to the east, beyond which a low-ceilinged cave beckons.
thanks for offering to play, sorry it didn't work out
As lighting strikes the strange machine, it groans and ceases it movements. Val leaves her hiding spot and grabs on to Teo in a running hug. "Thank you so much, I'm not sure what set it off, but I couldn't get it to stop" She brushes some dust off herself, and cranes her neck to look at her adopted siblings new friends. "So who are these folks? Are they going to help you and Fal find father? If so I guess they'll need a place to stay, but might need a little dusting" She motions back to the tavern, as the dust from the robot's rampage begins to settle. "Anything else you need? Otherwise please hurry, I'm worried about dad"
The strange white construct turns towards you, screeching. Gorin's bullet dents its shell but fails to penetrate, as does Gringe's rock. The sound of the gun shot reverberates throughout the air, temporary covering up Val's voice. As sound returns you hear her say "Fal, Teo, so gald to see you. You have to stop that thing, it went crazy as soon as I got the power on." The crossbow bolt fired by Maxwell slices into the shell of the robot and several of the lights go out, and the arms seem to be moving slower. The robot begins to approach the party, closing to within ten feet of Fal. It seems to be saying something in a strange language. The side of the tavern that the machine had been dismantling groans but seems to be holding up, though the wall will need to be replace. You see a flash of blonde hair as Val rushes out of the building and dashes behind the foundry, taking cover.
initiative: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (11) + 0 = 11
Game play is open, hopefully people got their messages and I will get posting after work today.
The Foundry Tavern is dead as you arrive, a strange state for one of the most popular drinking halls in Torch. The wood walls of all three buildings, the tavern, the foundry, and home of Khonnier, are all slightly damp from a past storm, but of more concern is the screaming of a young woman coming from around the back of the tavern, and the sound of wood being broken.
Dolga sighs, the says "we gave what supplies we had to the previous expeditions so we have little to offer except the reward, 3000 gold coins to each of those who bring back Khonnier safely. I would suggest using his inn as a base of operations, so you can keep an eye on Val as well, poor girl. Finally, our cleric of Brigh has agreed to cast a spell to allow you to breath underwater for a time, so you may access the caves."
Well I have the first bit of game play up, so if we have four players, we can begin
"Right, well then, lets get started. As some of you know, my name is Dolga, and I've been put in charge of the situation, in that I am the only one who wanted to deal with it directly. It’s been eight days since the flames that give our town its name have gone out, but only seven since the first explorers braved the new tunnels Khonnir discovered. Khonnir himself led his second foray into the caves just a couple of days ago—and he has yet to return. There’s an underwater passage connecting them to Weeping Pond. Khonnir noticed a large number of human footprints on the pond’s banks—he was there the day the fires went out testing the water to ensure it hadn’t suddenly grown more toxic—and he realized that a sizable group of people had entered the pond but had not emerged.We need you to enter the caves, rescue or retrive Khonnir, and find out what you can about why the flames have gone out. Have any questions before you get to work?" Dolga looks willing hopefully at the five adventures before her.

I have the tech guide, so I will let you know if the armor can be worn by druid
the town of Torch has put out the call for adventures and brave souls. The bright purple flames that erupt from the center of town, power its skymetal forges, and give the town it's name have been extinguished. The town council has sent numerous expeditions in to the strange metal ruins found below the town, but none have returned. As you answer the call for more souls, you are told to meet at the town hall. There you are greeted by a old dwarven woman, her white hair secured in looping braids behind her worn face. Gold earrings and rings are matched with a blue and gold dress that barely hides the muscles that years of working the forges have given her. She leans on a bright warhammer, clearly also made of some skymetal. She looks over the newest would be saviors and mutters, "We may be scrapping the bottom of the barrel here" and then louder and more directly at you "Ahh, so glad you could all make it, as Torch is in need of your help. Tell me who you are and then we can get down to the business of what we need done and what the pay is."
Gorin, you can craft your ammo
Fal, Gringe, Gorin, Maxwell, and because I can't narrow it down to four Teodoriga. Looking forward to playing with you all. I post the beginning of the game play soon. To everyone else, thank you for your submissions, and I will be running other AP in the future.
It is, I'll make my decision today and gameplay will start tomorrow.
Loving all the creativity, just running low on martial classes I see
No rat folk please, just the races I had listed
BC, there is tech in the campaign but is timeworn, not sure how that archetype interacts with timeworn tech.can't give to much away though.
I'll keep recruitment open till midnight, central daylight savings time, this Friday, June 24. I'm also looking at party balance
As far as maps go, I had been planning on using visualization, "there is a skeleton is rusty armor with a broken sword fifteen feet away to character x's ten o'clock" but if players prefer actual maps I'm sure I can find a solution. And I think the background skills will work, just have to dust off my UC book, doesn't see much action running pfs most of the time.
We will be playing the 3-4 range
Fal the Reborn, I love it and you're in. So we have a cleric now.
First Player is Fal the reborn, Kolbold cleric
I will accept the varieties from Blood of Fiends and Blood of angels. As far as background skills go, I like the flavor they add (i.e. tanner's daughter has craft leather). And I am open to running it as a campaign mode.
Hi all, I am hoping to run a Iron Gods play by post, looking for four players. I have run the first volume in person, but this will be my first PbP gm experience. I would like to pick my players based on their characters, build creativity, and backgrounds
So Character creation rules: 20 point buy, all classes except anti-paladin and pre unchained summoner. All Paizo archetypes are legal. Races: Core races plus Assimars, Teiflings, Android, Kobold, Vanara, and Tengu. I am also open to Gnoll if the concept is interesting. 150gp to start, two traits plus one extra if a drawback is selected (which I will use to my advantage muhahaha). If I missed any information you need, please ask away.
Players Guide
Good luck and looking forward to getting this going
Would the 3-4 their work for you guys?
So far my two players have characters in both sub tiers so if you have a preference please let me know. I'm am happy to run either tier.
I'm looking for three more players
Please keep all out of character chatter in here, as well as purchases and such. I would also like your PFS numbers and character names and classes and level
As the early dawn’s light crests over the Wall of Heaven mountain range, the Lantern Lodge is already bustling with activity. The sound of clashing swords echoes in the air from a nearby training area, and a group of Pathfinder agents silently meditates in the front courtyard. The lodge’s doors open, revealing a long corridor and a faint floral aroma wafts gently in the air. Sturdy shelves laden with artifacts from all corners of Tian-Xia line the corridor’s walls. Venture-Captain Amara Li emerges from a door labeled “Taldor Room” in a cherry-red kimono. The slight Tain woman nods to each of you in turn. "So good to see you all, I will be with you in a moment, why not introduce yourselves to your fellow agents, as you will need to work together closely in order to accomplish the task I have for you." She then turns to a scroll of notes on small table.
Hey guys, I will start out in the next post as the intro to the session, just wanted to link to a couple of guides on how to effectively play by post
Painlord's Guide.
Doomed Hero's Guide.
The how to format guide is below the text box
Hi there Pathfinders, your Venture Lieutenant for Kenosha WI here. This Saturday, I will be running all of the Emerald Spire (or at least as much as we can in 24 hours) for the Extra Life Charity.

Hey all, I am hoping to start a monthly PFS game at Rockhead's in Kenosha WI. The first meet up will be this Saturday at noon. I'll be running the Confirmation, and helping new players create characters. Hope to see some new faces.
Hi, I'm looking for 2 to 3 people interested in joining a shattered star run through on Saturdays. In the Kenosha WI area. PM for details.
Hey all. Here are the rules for characters. 20 point buy. 2 traits allowed, as are drawbacks. Core races plus Samsarans, Suli, Vanara, Vishkanya, Fetchling, and Catfolk. All classes but anti-paladin, and all archtypes.
You have been called to the small town Ravengro to attend the funeral of your close friend Professor Petros Lorrimor. Your relationship to the professor may vary, but you are all united in the loss of a dear friend. The body of your friend sits serenely in the coffin. A lovely young woman, her eyes still moist with tears looks up from the coffin towards the group of adventures that has just entered the church.
For our PbP of the Carrion Crown AP
Hi all, I am traveling to London in about a weeks time, and having been there over 14 times I have done all the tourist stuff. I would like to meet some locals and hopefully get some gaming in. I usually GM so would be fun to play but if a group needs a gm I'm more than happy to step up. So any games going on in the London area Nov 10-15. Thanks for the info

I ran 6 sessions at Gen Con, with two of them being Goblin Attack sessions which resulted in me having a lot of Gen Con 13 boons. I would like to trade for any of the Elemental racial boons.
Offering:
Seen it Once
Erratic Luck
Debt to Society
Lingering Resonance
Research Specialist
Sky Citadel Scholar
Personal Physician
Taint of the Worldwound
Former Crusader
Spirt of the Shadow Lodge
Seeking: any racial boon
So, Gen Con has come and gone, some thoughts my friends and I had on the way home. First off, thanks to everyone who played, I have only been a GM for a little over a year and had a blast running all these games. And a big thanks to all the Paizo staff for making volunteering such an easy and rewarding experience. I also was able to squeeze in a couple of games as a player and would like to suggest one thing for next year. I would like the ability to nominated a "Players Choice" Gm for Gen Con, as a reward for those who make Gen Con such a special experience. Would love some feedback on this idea.
Thanks for the help, it will hopefully make this work better. Wish my ninja player had let me know this before it happened

Hi there, ran into an issue with my homebrew group. Setting aside why, I have to deal with my orc witch doctor chasing my ninja, and I am not sure how to work this with in the rules, since the witch can fly. They are in a major city, both level 7. Any suggestions would be great. Thank you very much
