How are we determining stats? Dice rolls, public or private, or point buy?

EDIT: In addition, what is starting money (in gp, I'll convert it to regional currency)?


Could I get some info on the Kui Lai Empire for my backstory? Things like culture, major figures, cities, etc. would be helpful. Thanks.


How would you feel about a samurai? I've got one I rolled up for another campaign that I didn't get picked for; or if you'd rather not have him, I was thinking about trying a spellbreaker inquisitor. Also, I'll send you an email about the house rules.

So, does the listing mean my character's reasons are approved, or should I keep working on them?


Yoshihiro's motivation for staying in Korvosa is related to his edicts: he will never run from a battle. He sees what is going on in the city as a battle, one which he is involved in because he is there at the time; therefore, he will not leave until it is resolved.


Alright, I'll work on it.


Could I get a response to my character? Is there anything I should change?


OK, full post:
I'm interested. I'm in CST and can probably post 2-4 times a day, except on Tuesdays and Thursdays, on which I'll probably only be able to post once or twice. Anyway, my idea is for Otani Yoshihiro, a Human Samurai Ronin.

Yoshihiro was raised in a samurai family of moderate wealth and was given a good education, trained in the way of the sword, and educated in the samurai's code of honor. When he was 27, his family was called to send warriors to support their daimyo in battle. When the battle began to go poorly for their side, Yoshihiro, who had little experience in real combat, panicked and fled the field. Since this disgrace, he has wandered the lands of Golarion, trying to find a new lord to pledge allegiance to and thus regain his honor. Eventually, he came to the city of Korvosa, where he hoped he could find rest and a new lord after four long years of travelling.

The rich parents trait seemed to fit with the character, but perhaps it could be altered to be less money, as it seems like a lot to start with.

I'll post stats, etc., but first, could someone tell me how to do spoilers?
