When I was making this alias I accidentally clicked the button to give it one of the faction icons. This character isn't for PFS or even Pathfinder, so I don't really want to have the faction icon in front of her name. But it seems like there's no way to get rid of the icon? I can select a different one, but can't just deselect the Dark Archive faction. Is there a way to remove the faction icon?

I am playing an evil inquisitor of Asmodeus. No one else in the party really knows how to heal, so I was thinking of taking Cure light wounds as a spell next level. But I'm kind of confused about how positive energy works. Cure wounds spells channel positive energy. The cleric's class description says that good clerics channel positive energy, which heals, and evil clerics channel negative energy, which harms. Inquisitors don't have that "channel energy" class feature, but am I still barred from learning the spell, because I'm evil?

Each of you recently received a cryptic note from Aleanor Pathsteader, an elven ranger whom you've worked with in the past. It read:

Meet me at the Sign of the Fair Warrior in Stormport, on the next new moon. Something extraordinary is happening, and you need to know about it. The ranks of the Elect are swelling.

– Aleanor Pathsteader

Stormport is a bustling mid-size free city on the edge of the northern sea; its population is mostly human, but with sizable minorities of elves, half-elves, and halflings. The Sign of the Fair Warrior is one of the city's nicer inns, owned by a heavily scarred old human veteran known as Handsome John (the nickname is presumably ironic).

You've all made your way here with one day to spare; the next new moon, when you await Aleanor, is tomorrow. The tavern area of the Fair Warrior is, as usual, filled with the hustle and bustle of people chatting and the scent of pipe smoke. The prevailing subject of discussion is the unseasonable snows the land has been having lately: after a harsh winter, the relief of spring's arrival was shut down by some cold snaps and snow flurries, and folks are worried about the farmers' crops.

You can go ahead and do some introductions, RP amongst yourselves, or just dot into the thread before we kick things off on the next day.

Hello :O

We can get gameplay started once everyone's finalized (at least most of) their character sheets and so on.

Hey, so I am looking to try PbP GMing for the first time. I have a reasonable amount of experience as a GM (in non-PbP) and have recently been participating in PbP here as a player and really enjoyed it. There's this adventure I've been tooling around with that I'm really excited about so I thought this would be a good way to give it a try! I am pretty new to Pathfinder but have a very thorough knowledge of 5th edition, so that is the system I want to use for this.

This particular adventure would be my own conversion of an AD&D 2e module "A Darkness Gathering." It is the first in a trilogy of modules (the Monstrous Arcana: Illithid Trilogy) but can be played by itself. So my hope is to go through this first adventure and then, depending on if it's successful and player interest, move to the rest. Obviously as you can guess from it being called the Illithid trilogy, there is a focus on mind flayers as the enemies.

I don't know how many people here would be interested in this so this is an interest check / possible recruitment!
I would be looking for probably 3-6 players and the module is fairly short; I don't know how to gauge how long it would take by forum but if played face-to-face I don't think it would take more than two sessions to get through, so that gives you some idea.

Let me know if you'd be interested or if you have any other questions.
