Delben Petch and Alana are in. I'm still waiting on a backstory for Harvey Dagger but he's tentatively in. Also waiting on the Gillman.

Laurestine seems good too, so that'll be our group unless one of the aforementioned drops out (in which case their slot goes to Antal). Sorry to everyone who expressed interested but who couldn't be worked in, these things always become a clusterf&#+ and I clearly don't know the etiquette.

Based on the number of bards I can only assume that you are the Pirates of Penzance.

Sorry, but I already have more interested people than I could possibly use so I'm not taking any new character pitches at this time.

where exactly in the Inner Sea aera is this taking place?

The "Arcadian Ocean based out of Ilizmagorti".

If there aren't already enough people, I would like to play a Halfling Summoner with an aquatic companion.

I already have a lot of people, but people may still drop out so I might be able to work you in but I am making zero promises.

But one question: can I take the Boon Companion feat for my eidolon?

Nope.

I was actually planning on starting the game in the immediate aftermath of the mutiny, where questions of captaincy and other positions would be worked out IC. Working out pirate Articles of Agreement sounds like fun roleplaying to me. If everyone else prefers figuring this stuff out OOC though I have no objections. That's up to you guys though.

Sure thing :)

See my edited post if you missed it.

Thanks, if me having a special race causes problems I'd be happy to redo my character concept.

Nope you're still good.

Remember, however, that all the PCs were originally involuntary crew-members of a single pirate ship. Perhaps it was the pirates who enslaved your character (they'd have needed some means of preventing him from just swimming away). Otherwise your character would have had to have been a voluntary member of the "evil" crew, in which case you'll need to have a reason why you were involved in the mutiny (and not marooned with the rest of the officers. Not that marooning would be much of a problem for a Gillman).

Alben Petch and Alana look good, seems like they're ready to roll.

Harvey Dagger is fine stat-wise, but I'm more interested in backstories.

I'd seriously recommend either Alben or Alana changing their name if I'm to be expected to tell them apart :P

I'm not going to have room for everyone who has posted already. I'll wait and see who posts what and who sticks around. If you want to secure a slot impress me with your character backstory.

Are there any restrictions on choosing a non-core race? Sometimes I get ideas from the featured races section.

Read the character creation section in my first post. If you have a concept that hinges on a non-Core race I'll consider it, but if your plan is to look through the non-Core races to find something weird you like to base a concept on that's not really want I'm looking for.

I suppose failing at that, I could do it as an Undine or even an Elf. What do you think?

I'd prefer people stick to Core races, as I indicated in the character creation section. I was okay with the Gillman because the concept hinged on it but I don't really don't want a whole party of different underwater races.

Also a merfolk taking a level of Barbarian so they can zip around on land like some oiled up seal is kind of silly. This is very far from the tone I'm going for. If this is what you have in mind you should think of a different concept.

Would you be willing to allow me to be a Gillman? And if so I'd like to be a huntmaster cavalier with sharks instead of dogs. This is my crazy concept and if you don't approve I'll play something more normal.

That sounds sweet.

Count me interest DM

i'll probably play an elven Wave Oracle

as for myself i post an average of 3 times a day (minimum) and i am involved in more than 20 Pbp

Btw I think the Wave Oracle sounds cool. I didn't want you to think I was ignoring you. Just keep me informed of what you're thinking of playing.

If the GM will allow, I am going to do a 5th level human Gunsliger with the Buccaneer Archetype.

I'll have that posted tonight

Sounds great. Go for it.

I'm quite interested as well--love me a good pirate-themed game. Question, though--could I take the Peg Leg trait from Skulls and Shackles?

Absolutely. If it's published by Paizo and involve pirates then you can take it for sure.
