so with this being an "interest check" is there an ETA on when we can expect a recruitment thread?

Sczarni

I'm interested, I was introduced to d20 ttrpgs in a very similar way and it sounds fun to go back to that after all these years. I'm thinking an adept going for druid?

@Robert Henry: Hello! Good see ya too! Hopefully it was the system and not the group that was apocalyptic.

@friendly sauce and Ythiel: Are you interested in just anything run in PF1e?

I am only interested in PF1, I just don't care to try to learn another system. I'll keep an eye on the thread as I am interested in PF1 and the Imperial Academy sounds best to me out of the options presented.

Sczarni

Dotting for interest in any 1E Pathfinder game you might run, that being said, there are 16 sad adventurers who werent chosen to be colonists for the Ruins of Azlant AP if you are interested in salvaging some of us from Another recruiting thread

Also, real quick, Simeon/Aldemar: kineticists don't get their elemental defense talent until level 2, but it's always nice to plan ahead.

Weird, hero lab must've added that as a fluke and I didn't catch it as I was putting up the profile. C'est la vie.

Aldemar seems not to have made it onto friendly sauce's list of characters.

I promise I'm not hurt.

PBP, I'm bowing out, thanks.
Do you mean play by post? Just curious

Yes... I didn't know if this was strictly a Play-By-Post(PBP) forum (as it's not labeled as such an my first time here although I have a lot of experience elsewhere) and you didn't say that in your opening. Other listings do but it's a mix in this forum.

Generally this is a PBP recruitment forum and I would say its safe to say unless a thread specifically says it is NOT PBP, to assume it is.

Sczarni

I've been waiting for a Ruins of Azlant PBP for AGES to try out a water based druid with an aquatic companion! I'll start working on one this week.

Submitting Nbazi Samba, A Halfling native to Nantambu.

Sounds great. Does he have any brothers or sisters?

So he does have family.

He does, I imagine a mother as well; I can flesh them out with names and basic character traits if you'd like.

Submitting Nbazi Samba, A Halfling native to Nantambu.

Background:
Nbazi is the younger son of a modest halfling trading family in Nantambu, with a penchant for interacting with the black market and its denizens. So much so is this reputation that he has become somewhat of an investigator into matters involving the Nantambu black market, mostly from fellow Halflings, but he will accept work from just about anyone in need.

for protection he has his trusty Eidalon, Rafiki, who appears as a magnificent and colorful Mandrill. Nbazi is always looking for adventure, and the next bit of trouble to get himself into, and Rafiki is always getting him out of it. Both his elder brother and Father do not approve of his black market associations and would prefer he try to apply his talents at Maggaambya bbut are too busy with the family business to press the matter any further.

He is unsure why Rafiki appeared to him as a child, but ever since he has felt no fear, and been able to channel to heal those he cares about in the way only the most devout temple priests usually can so for the most part his life is carefree and his family sees his abilities as a blessing and boon.

I’ve usually used upside down tokens mean dead/unconscious and sideways tokens mean prone.

fwiw, i usually put an X image ontop of enemies that are dead, or rotate their pic upside down. Either way it seems we need to detail how we want to run combat and the map it seems?

I don't think Amelia's bless stacks with Emerald's inspire courage. But isnt the light crossbow the weapon for everyone??? I always tell new casters when in doubt buy a light crossbow.

They actually do stack, bless is a morale bonus on saves and attack and inspire courage is a competence bonus on attack and damage and a morale bonus on saves on fear and charms.

So it looks like the combo should provide +2 attack, +1 damage, and +1 to saves.

double crit within the first 10 posts, whoo it is gonna be a DOOM game

Sczarni

I'm agreeing with the rest so far, after 2 weeks submissions are kinda a diminishing return. When I run PFS i'll usually take the first six to be fair, but a week is the bare minimum imo.

tldr, I think you would be fine to close submissions/make decisions at this point.

And mine rides a Skunk but he's a halfling lol

important stuff:

35 build points Max stat is 18 (before racial mods), Min allowed stat is 10. no going negative to get more build points
Races allowed: Core races. Open to others, post the request on here, with a link, and i will read it over and consider it.

Sczarni

I'll be posting a Full Orc Barbarian with a Butchering axe build in a bit.

quick question, is the minimum stat of 10 before racial mods or after?

Sczarni

I am Interested, I have 3 characters I could play for this, an Elven Alchemist at 5th level, a Vishkanya Paladin at 5th, and a Dwarven Cleric at 1st.

The Paladin is a classic two handed Paladin, the Alchemist is a pretty standard alchemist as well, and the cleric is an Asmodean Advocate so he is a decent face who channels negative energy.

I would echo what others have said and maybe rank which ones are deal breakers for you and which are flexible.

The only deal breaker for me to have none selected.

Recently, someone quoted that campaign mode could be run with entirely different rpg system if someone wanted. If I'd known that I would probably have tried that first then see if people were willing to try just some parts of my system. But it doesn't really matter that much, I know I need more eyes on these to find issues I missed or tell me how pathetic or awesome or middling these mechanics are.

after rereading them, I would agree with alot of what Nikolaus de'Shade said, I would be interested in Hells Rebel's using regular pathfinder but with your HP/ vitality system but the other ones seem like at best different math and at worst more math.

I also think it might be a good idea to run a one shot, maybe even one you write to highlight your system to help gauge and generate interest.

Unfortunately I’m withdrawing my interest at this time as well. I think a lot of us were expecting home-brew rulings not entire mechanics but I wish you best of luck in filling the game and developing your system. If you do decide to run a game based mostly in pathfinder 1 I’ll be happy to sign up.

Sczarni

wow that's alot of homebrew, just out of curiousity have you read PF2 rules? some of what you are doing with skill based combat/magic seems to be similar to some PF2 rules as I remember them.

Background:

"Several years ago I was working at the port office drawing up and approving trade contracts and acting as a representative to the port in minor contractual disputes. Several years ago I was a proud member of Abadar church and in good standing with the bank as well. Several years ago I didn't know who Gaedren Lamm was. Several Years ago, I was happy. Now, well now I do what I can for another church, still doing.... Contract work, but certainly not as boring as port work. These days I'm doing what I can to find out who killed the only real witness to a murder I was accused of."

Lucius was a studious and efficient Port office Barrister before he was accused of a murder he did not commit. Lucius believes he was targeted by Lamm because Lamm needed/wanted someone else in his position in the port office, probably for some illicit imports no doubt. After the accusation and lack of alibi, he was eventually ejected from the church, port, and his family has not contacted him in some time and he is getting desperate to find any information about Lamm or the witness, or why he was picked to take the fall. he wants any shred of information; because information is power.

Sczarni

Did you have a point buy in mind or any other character creation details? I have a build using the orc horn bow or butchering axe that sounds fun for this.

I’m down, I’ll get a character whipped up for consideration and check out some of your suggestions for inspiration.

How does a taldan gunslinger in the vein of Alan Quartermain sound? An outsider to the area so I can totally see if thats not what you’re looking for but the idea struck me.

Would you be willing to take a seventh? Specifically a level one? Or maybe even split into a table of ones in a table of threes?

I havent done PbP in a few years either but want to jump back in if there is room and I'm welcome.

would you prefer character pitches here or in your DM's?

Ive got a ranged halfling hunter idea floating around

Sczarni

I've got it settled down to my original shield champion, who is brutey enough with short range and nice melee; An elven archer ranger who will just follow the standard archery feat line; a dwarven druid for all the reasons Secret Wizard mentioned.

Thanks to everyone who gave input!

Sczarni

I should point out, I'm not new to the system, been playing for almost 10 years now. The rest of the party is very new to Pathfinder and tabletop RPG's but are very familiar with RPG settings.

I have a shield champion brawler rolled up but a switch hitting ranger might be better because the GM hinted there would be a decent amount of outdoors time.

Sczarni

A friend is throwing together a home brew game using pfs and aside from me the other 4 players don’t have a lot of experience so I’ve been waiting to make my class decision. Right now we have a asmodeus warpriest, a bard, an air elemental blaster sorcerer, and a standard magus. Not looking to play a cleric but otherwise open to suggestions to shore up the party.

I'm not enjoying PFS2 as much because the system seems weighted slightly against the players, with the understanding the GM should be customizing things on the fly and PFS's inability to flub numbers or raise or lower stats on the fly makes it kinda grueling as a player IMO.

Sczarni

male human person/ 1 maybe 2

agreed, Starfinder is great but I can't help but get the feeling that its a glorified beta test for PF2(whether that was Paizo's intention or not). So far I'm really impressed with PF2 and how ti seems to be designed to give the GM control but still be simple. Just waiting for a bit more content but I hear thats coming this summer.
