Awwwe, I'm finally getting to start my dream of running Rise of the Runelords, but this book won't be out in time for me to start. :(

Either way, I will be buying this book because I love how much character this town has and I will want to do campaigns set there in the future! Thank you for making this!


His lore is Lore: Iomedae.


Best of luck to everyone who has applied, and thank you for considering my submission, GM


Just a note, I finally tidied up a bit of the backstory of Okian.

You could just want to inspire them to hope and righteousness rather than despair and selfishness. After all, "worship of the almighty credit" is really just a LE take on following Abadar, and that dude literally has his own megacorp...

Well that works too, then, I'll adjust accordingly instead of a full rewrite, Its been a while since I played anything divine-related in the Lawful range. My last religious character was a Summoner who worshipped Pharasma.

I've got a blood bowl game tonight for my league so I might be able to get this addressed afterwards, if not then, than tomorrow for sure.


Not done the background yet, but I will write that tomorrow at work. Here's the link to the crunch.


Decided to build a barbarian, seemed to fit the party best.


Awesome, I'll get my character made up tonight after work, hard to pull up the guide while I am at work and all.


I'll be submitting my level 1 Core Human whose class is yet to be decided, but likely a Bard or Paladin or Fighter, I have yet to decide which.


I humbly submit to you for consideration, Okian Iottlod. I left the name of his god out as I was unsure if we are using the standard pathfinder pantheon or something else.

Would you be okay with already established PFS characters? None of the ones I have in mind would be over level 1

Based on the campaign plan I have mapped out, I'd really prefer to stick with new characters.

I'll draw one up tonight. Probably either a Paladin or Sorcerer. Maybe a fighter, not sure yet.


Would you be okay with already established PFS characters? None of the ones I have in mind would be over level 1.


I'd definitely be interested in participating, will post a character after work today. Do you have any guidelines that you would like us to follow in terms of character creation beyond no evil?


I just realized something, this reminds me a lot of the Acts of Caine series that I have been reading.


Dotting as well, at work right now so not able to make up a character sheet... yet.


When in doubt, I tend to go simple, thinking a human unchained barbarian or fighter, maybe with a rank or two of vigilante to represent the idea that his personality when "performing" would be different than on the street away from the Crawl. Have not yet decided though between the two main classes.


Dotting for interest.


Submitting my human unchained barbarian for approval below.

Kildel Kursaand


Dotting, will post character tonight.


Given that recruitment closes tonight, I too will have to withdraw my dot due to unforseen engagements.


Dotting, just trying to decide between putting up a swashbuckler (picaroon), and a Druid.


Sounds fair, man. I can deal with that.

If he allows you to modify every few levels rather than every level then you should be able to get 4-point evolution eventually.

@DM: Are those houserules pre- or post- Unchained? If he is using unchained then that should have nerfed summoner considerably.

True true, plus there is extra evolution as a feat, and psychopomps get an extra point at level 8, if I remember rightly. Also, it is an Unchained Summoner, not the traditional one. I much prefer running the unchained version, as I feel like the original summoner class can steal the spotlight from other players in every respect.


Okay, that makes sense to me, though that does make 2-point evolutions or higher impossible to obtain, since points cannot be saved for the summoner's pool.

So, I have been looking into joining a long term pbp game. As for the character, I was thinking of using a purely Unchained Summoner.

Background:

Born to a pair of serfs, Calathes was abandoned by them at birth since they just could not afford to raise him. Forced to live out in the wilderness, Calathes learned to survive, but the malnutrition left him with a slender body even for his own kind and a lack of any real strength. Living in the wild for his developmental years left Calathes a wild mess, but also left him with an incredible tenacity and drive to survive.

Things changed for him in his 12 year of life when he was found by a wandering priest of Pharasma. The man took him under his wing and helped Calathes develop some semblance of social skills. In fact, he could be downright charming, when he chose to speak. But where his true interests lay were in the worship of Pharasma, who, in his mind, had ensured that he had a chance to survive and meet his true fate later on in life. He always felt a debt to her, in that regard, which was why he always felt as though she was talking back to him when he prayed.

Over time, the pair travelled far and wise and Calathes grew to enjoy the study of history as well, for there was little else for a young boy of Cal's age to do at that time when serving with a priest. He was aided by the female voice in his mind, which told him her name was Daena. They grew closer, and closer, until the day of the earthquake. The massive rent in the earth separated Cal and his mentor, Vaddyn, for many years, and left them off seeking one another and generally working to best serve their goddess.

But on that day, something else changed, and Cal's connection with Daena grew, strong enough that he could call her down from the planes beyond. They grew closer, and she helped him to learn more about his gifts and the use of some basic magic. Cal learned that Daena was a Psychopomp of Pharasma, sent to help Cal achieve his fate in life, to be an instrument against the undead, just as Daena was.

They wandered for many years, until one more fateful day, the day they came to Averlorn. The day the population of that small town went from 50 to 2. The two survivors said that a wild looking half-elf and his tall, lanky, creature slaughtered everyone without provocation. The truth was not quite as it seemed, but the news spread like wildfire and soon, Cal could not use his real name, and even took to keeping more withdrawn than before, lest someone recognize him as the Butcher of Averlorn.

Well, I hope that helps put me in a good position to play with you all. Lemme know what you think about the backstory.
