Guilty. You are a lawbreaker – the worst of the worst.
Too dangerous to live amongst the good people of Talingarde,
they dragged you in chains before a magistrate and
condemned you. They sent you to the worst prison in the
land and there they forever marked you. They held you
down and branded you with a runic F. You are forsaken.
You won’t be at Branderscar Prison for long. Branderscar
is only a holding pen. In three days – justice
comes. In three days – everything ends.
What a pity. If only there was a way out of this stinking rat-hole.
If only there was a way to escape. If only…
No. No one has ever escaped from Branderscar Prison.
This is where your story ends.

Welcome,
In case there weren't enough Way of the Wicked campaigns already, here's one more. For any who don't know Way of the Wicked is a 3rd party adventure path for Pathfinder published by Fire Mountain Games wherein our heroes... are villains!
Without exception, each PC is a criminal of the worst sort, imprisoned in the highest security, most notorious prison in the nation and sentenced either to die or spend the rest of your very short lives slaving in the salt mines of Talingarde for crimes you HAVE committed.
But what if you could escape?... what if there was someone out there who could and would help you wreak a terrible revenge upon all those who've betrayed and imprisoned you?... what if he offered you a place at his side when he came to rule this pathetic nation of Sun worshippers?... what if you believed him?
This is Way of the Wicked

Character creation guidelines are detailed here in the Players' Guide.
I will absolutely answer questions, but anyone who can't be bothered to read the Players' Guide first can't be bothered to have their submissions considered.
-We will be using the focus and foible method of ability scores assignment. You may roll TWICE.
-Anyone who prefers or for whom neither roll set gives them a point buy value of 25 or more may use a 25 point buy instead.
-All races detailed in the Advanced Race Guide's core, featured and uncommon lists are permissible with the exceptions of Aasimars, Merfolk, Strix and Svirfneblins, no others.
-Any class or archetype detailed in any portion of the PRD is permissible with the exceptions of the Synthesist archetype for Summoner and any archetype which features more than one companion or eidelon.
-I'll consider archetypes from other sources, but only if they are published by Paizo, no 3rd party source material beyond this game's players' guide.
-You must choose one trait and one crime (campaign trait). You may take one flaw in order to gain an extra trait.
-Your background is important, have one. It doesn't have to be long, but make sure it's reasonably well written.
-Divine characters are strongly encouraged to take Asmodeus as their deity.
-Be available to post at least once per weekday and once per weekend.
I think that just about covers it. I'm looking to select five or six characters of the usual varieties, and recruitment will close on Saturday, November 1 at 10:00pm est.
