Oops, looks like I needed to connect this thread. OK, done now.
Hi Everyone, I'm really beginning to enjoy myself on these boards, having only joined a few weeks ago. Now, naturally I have asked to play in many more games than I have been accepted for, but I still feel I'd like to do more, as one game failed very quickly, and the other has only just started, though seems very promising so far (thank you, WarEagle!). I'm not new to PBP having played many games in the early days of Yahoo Groups with the D&D3.0/3.5 ruleset, of course, and had some marvellous times with people all over the world that stretched through years of gameplay. I am, I freely confess, relatively new to Pathfinder (only having discovered it existed recently -- a great relief after the disappointment of D&D4.0) but let's be honest, it's the same game, basically that I played all those years ago. However, though I love the combat elements and the dice rolling -- and the fact that the programming code allows this to happen in messages is great -- the main thrill for me in PBP comes from the creative writing, roleplay, and interaction between characters. Therefore I am proposing to run as DM (GM, sorry) the Carrion Crown Adventure Path, and wonder how much interest there would be from players like myself, who enjoy writing regularly and at length, and aren't just living for the next combat dice roll, and can live with the occasional slowdown in pace from the DM because of real-life pressures, but alleviate the hold-up through inspirational roleplaying between characters. Is this a sensible adventure path to choose? Would there be interest? I'm not even going to start asking for character submissions as yet, but I'll warn you now that I'm not looking for "extremes" -- a halfling-tiefling-ifrit-cross barbarian with a baby-red-dragon mount and various cannons and firearms in his backpack is not my idea of fun. The rules are likely to be restricted to the Core Rulebook, and maybe the APG, if that alone is enough to turn people off. As my main interest is in "dialogue", I propose we start talking in this thread if you're interested, and hopefully initial conversations and exchanges will show whether we're coming at this from the same angle. Writing style, frequency and consistency will be the most important things for me -- having said that, I hope I'm not coming over as pompous and insufferable, but I am just hoping to get the best team from the off, and not have to come back in a few weeks' time and try and replace people who have dropped out, for whatever reason. |
