For us new at this: Hollow's Last Hope Discussion

Have a nice vacation! I'm enjoying this game, and personally I don't feel any need to rush along with the story. If you can't post or you are enjoying other vacation things too much ... :) ... I'm OK to wait until you are able to join us.

Well, I meant that languages :) I should have said Gaelic, maybe

Learn-to-Play Pathfinder: One-Shot Module for Beginners [Non-Beginner Box]

Yes, definitely. Will post evening my time. I'm basically a beginner, and I would like to play a Dwarf character, either a paladin or a cleric (to be decided when I create the character).

Coming back to this... (long shot) do you happen to know any Danish? Or Irish,for that matter :)

For us new at this: Hollow's Last Hope Discussion

Yeah, I don't think anyone would call themselves a barbarian, unless it was to mock someone they had defeated or similar - "look at you, beaten by a mere barbarian". It's a (semi-)derogatory term applied to others.

The other option is to refer to where you come from, perhaps. If we take the historical example of the Romans, they considered the modern day French, Germans, British and Scandinavians as barbarians (amongst others!), but ask any of those people 'who are you?' and they would be a Gaul, a Tuton, a Cimbri, and so on. You might think that's a different kind of context, but it could also apply here - people would have an understanding of what a 'Northman' is considered to be, etc, and apply it well enough to make a judgment.

I wasn't quite clear what you thought about Druids, by the way. In this game I would probably just say 'I'm a woodsman' and leave it at that.

You could be descended from Danes in that case :) We tend to spend a really long time in the education system, mostly because it's all free (almost all)

Haha! More power to text editors. It's OK, thanks for the offer, I was just thinking for any future characters.

By the way, how do you all create your characters in a nice convenient format for posting to the forum? I used a trial online pathfinder pc builder, but no export functionality, so I'd be very grateful for any tips!
Legacy of Fire - Howl of the Carrion King

As mentioned in the original thread, I would very much like to sign up and cut my teeth on this one. I would like to play as a Bard, either a human or an aasimar, of a generally heroic persuasion. The social contract stuff looks just right for me.

New to PbP looking to give it a try

Confirming for DaWay's AP (any) and Capt's intro module.

For Hollow's Last Hope: I will roll up this evening my time, but I intend to roll a male human druid (which I think should fit with the Paladin and Summoner as requested).

For the AP: I will wait and see if I get to play and what other people prefer to play before deciding myself.

Just as an aside, for those interested in playing in their first pbp game, I highly recommend DH's guide to pbp gaming. It's located on the paizo forums and you can read it here.

Enjoy.

Mmm. Thanks for the link. It's pretty late at night here so I will post up a proposed build tomorrow, but it's great to see the interest so far!

New to PbP looking to give it a try

I'm also new to the PbP format and have been watching for a suitable recruitment thread for a while, so here I am, registering my interest.

I'm located in Copenhagen, so that's GMT +2 at the moment with summertime whatnot. I could certainly handle a one or two posts per day type of game, although a slower pace would also be quite fine.

Character-wise, I would quite like to have a go at a divine caster, but honestly, I don't have a strong preference. The same goes for the theme of game, I would be very happy to try most things.
One player, one DM

Hi all :) I'm hoping to start up a campaign with my wife, I'll be the DM and she will play. The chosen game is going to be Pathfinder (we took a look at 4E but it didn't really appeal). Neither of us have much experience, but it's pretty obvious that most D&D variants seem to be balanced around party size of about 4-6, which is obviously an issue with just one player. I'd really like to hear the thoughts of more experienced gamers (basically all of you) about whether we should aim for a scaled down game of say 1 PC and one hired companion, try to play 4 PCs with the 1 player for a balanced party, or something in between. I'm not really sure what the relative merits of the different options are. All help appreciated!

As an FYI, we were thinking about running the Paizo mod Hollow's Last Hope for an easy intro.

About Corbett "the Crab" Cromwell

PFS #262447-2

Taldan born, and Absalom raised, self proclaimed as the hardest man who ever trudged the Puddles, fastest hands in the Flatsoles; Corbett Cromwell earned his nickname "the Crab" in the run-down district's bareknuckle circuit.

When there's no dockwork to be had, the biggest louts turned to drinking and fighting - the smarter of the bunch made a spectacle of it, making profit from their favourite pastime.

Corb earned his nickname not for any devotion or affinity for the sea or it's crustaceans; he was dubbed The Crab because his oft-broken left hand swelled to nearly twice its size after one of his legendary bout with Balenar the Black - seventeen rounds over six and a half hours in the sweltering 100-plus degree heat.

After a bit of a losing streak, he took to odd muscle-jobs and bodyguard duties to pay off some gambling debts (possibly from some overconfident bets on himself later in his career, but that's neither here nor there...), he now finds himself employed with the Pathfinder Society, and is ready to tackle whatever job they send him on.

Special Abilities:

Bonus Feats At 2nd level and every 3 levels thereafter, a brawler gains a bonus combat feat in addition to those gained from normal advancement. These bonus feats must be ones that affect or improve her defenses or melee attacks. The brawler must meet the prerequisites of the selected bonus combat feat. Upon reaching 5th level and every 3 levels thereafter, a brawler can choose to learn a new bonus combat feat in place of a bonus combat feat she has already learned. In effect, the brawler loses the bonus combat feat in exchange for the new one. The old feat cannot be one that was used as a prerequisite for another feat, prestige class, or other ability. A brawler can only change one feat at any given level, and must choose whether or not to swap the feat at the time she gains a new bonus combat feat for the level.
Brawler's Cunning (Ex) If the brawler's Intelligence score is less than 13, it counts as 13 for the purpose of meeting the prerequisites of combat feats.
Dual Talent Some humans are uniquely skilled at maximizing their natural gifts. These humans pick two ability scores and gain a +2 racial bonus in each of those scores. This racial trait replaces the +2 bonus to any one ability score, the bonus feat, and the skilled traits.
Indomitable Faith You were born in a region where your faith was not popular, but you still have never abandoned it. Your constant struggle to maintain your own faith has bolstered your drive. You gain a +1 trait bonus on Will saves.
Martial Flexibility (Ex) The brawler can use a move action to gain the benefit of a combat feat he doesn't possess. This effect lasts for 1 minute. The brawler must otherwise meet all the feat's prerequisites. He can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 4. The brawler can use this ability again before the duration expires in order to replace the previous combat feat with another choice. If a combat feat has a daily use limitation, any uses of that combat feat while using this ability count toward that feat's daily limit. At later levels, when he gains multiple feats through this ability, the brawler can use those feats to meet the prerequisites of other feats he gains with this ability. Doing so means he cannot replace a feat currently fulfilling another's prerequisite without also replacing those feats that require it. Each individual feat selected counts toward his daily uses of this ability.
Martial Training (Ex) A brawler counts her total brawler levels as both fighter levels and monk levels for the purpose of qualifying for feats. She also counts as both a fighter and a monk for feats and magic items that have different effects based on whether the character has levels in those classes (such as Stunning Fist and a monk's robe). This ability does not automatically grant feats normally granted to fighters and monks based on class level, namely Stunning Fist.
Reactionary You were bullied often as a child, but never quite developed an offensive response. Instead, you became adept at anticipating sudden attacks and reacting to danger quickly. You gain a +2 trait bonus on Initiative checks.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency A brawler is proficient with all simple weapons plus the handaxe, short sword, and weapons from the close fighter weapon group. She is proficient with light armor, and shields (except tower shields).

Martial Flexibility feats:

Cleave attack, if hit, make add't atk to adj target
Combat Expertise -1 ATK, +1 dodge bonus to AC
Dodge +1 dodge bonus to AC
Deflect Arrows
