Fronar, we're not set yet.
I've only answered questions.

You can present your own. But timespan is short, upside, there's just the 3 instead of 5 that will have to do the picking.

Yup! I was just asking for details. I have not been accepted yet. Once I finish we shall see who is picked. :)


I had a question regarding traits. Are the Bloodline Race Traits allowed from the Ultimate Campaign book? From what I read they seem like they should be, but I wanted to run it by you first. I wanted the Blood of Dragons trait. I plan on making it a part of her background and future story. It also has the potential for a plot hook as well.


Sure, i don't mind.


Another question (sorry for so many!), I would like to refluff the vagabond child (urban) trait as follows:

This alters just the flavor text, not the mechanics. Is this acceptable? It fits the story I am making.


Sure, i'm curious what i'll be seeing with that.


I've heard from our bard,

She'd be happy to continue the game.
Circumstances prevented a response earlier.

I'm sorry to the 2 who've shown interest, but our group seems to stay complete.


Sent you a PM there Chyro. Have a fun game!


I'm re-opening recruitment for 1, our bard has left for time related reasons. The character will arrive during downtime.

Creation Specifics:

Spoiler:

20pt buy
-1 feat
-2 traits, no drawbacks.
-Average class start wealth
-Classes: Core and Base, with exception from Gunslinger, ninja, samurai and summoner.
Archetypes allowed, check with me please on archetypes.
-Races: Core, though gnomes aren't a common sight for Kharum.
-Alignment: Good and neutrals. Non-chaotic please.
-Level 3, lvl gain goes after events.
-Hp max on lvl 1. On gain, half +1 or roll.
-No min maxing, 1 stat allowed at 8.

No 3rd party content.
RP is encouraged, creativity can get you a long way.

Starting gold: Max +350

Your character can choose 1 of the following free bonus feats:
*Haggler: When selling weapons or armor in Kharum, get 110% of it selling value if passing Bluff or Diplomacy DC15. 100% Otherwise. You must haggle alone without aid.
*Blend with the crowd: When in a "busy" crowd, you get a +2 to stealth for hiding amongst the masses.
*Native to Varisia: You get a +2 to Kn. Local in Varisian settlements.

You have a connection to the city in some way, it's a grand trade port city, topping Korvosa. A family member, perhaps one of its many churches, something that makes the city important to you.

A few details via PM if selected.

Campaign background thusfar:
The group has stopped a suspicious theft spree, fended off an assault on the ruling families and took down a pirate ship.
The group will (have) discover(ed) the pirates were a mere "tool" in a grander, darker design. This will take them to different locations outside off the city.

Our current party: Mobile Fighter, Monk, Oracle & Sorceress.
The team said they're fine with whatever class, though an utility class would be nice. As such i'll primary look for the character over crunch.
It's noteworthy investing in intimidate is not mandatory...our sorceress is an expert at it. ^^

I'll keep recruitment open untill friday october 10th 24:00, after which the team can decide whom they want to have along.

I'm looking at a 1 post minimum a day, preferably 2 if you want to pace it up. Weekends happen, but its nice if you can.


Let me reiterate that having a consistent player who posts regularly is much much more important to me than having an awesome character. You can have the most unoptimized character and I'm fine with that as long as you are posting and moving the action and game forward.


I am interested. I can meet the 1-2 a day frequency. I propose a human urban ranger (is this archetype ok?), with the Blend With the Crowd feat.

Background:

Simple version: A down on his luck adventurer looking to get back in the swing of things after a few unsuccessful jaunts that left him abandoned by his team...

Crunch:

Chavon (Kah-e-vahn) Kinjito
Human Ranger(Urban)
STR 18 / DEX 14 / CON 12 / INT 10 / WIS 14 / CHA 8

Feats: Blend With the Crowd, Power Attack, Quick Draw, Boon Companion
Ranger Bonus: Rapid Shot

Key abilities: Favored Enemy(Human), Favored Community(Riddleport), Trapfinding

Abilities:
Skills:
Major:
disable device
perception
stealth
survival

Minor:
climb
heal
k(local)
swim

I'll see about what other skills may fit him as I flesh him out.


I'm the Mobile Fighter of the group, but not the melee specialist, I'm an archery specialist. Just putting it out there for more possible recruits.

Aha, I can see a switch-hitter Ranger in the making there, right Vin?

Dark Archive

I take it that the ACG classes are not on the table?

If not, I have an idea for a Gorumite Half-orc Battle Oracle that might be neat.


@ Seranov; yes i'd like to stick to core and base.

Knock yourself out making the Oracle ;)


That's his shtick, although I would prefer not to "wade into battle" but rather have the battle come to us.

My concept for Chavon's fighting style is projectile weapon at distance, switching to thrown weapons with a reach weapon at the ready, switching to the sword at melee. I felt this should work against most normal sized threats.

Unless, of course, someone decides to charge in and engage...

And, in the heat of battle, I can't promise that won't be Chavon (sometimes)...


I'm definitely interested in applying, but I just had a quick question. How often is the party indoors or in other scenarios where mounts would be impractical?
Right now I'm deciding between a small cavalier of some kind or maybe a magus.
Also, are ACG archetypes banned as well, or just the new classes?


Here is Chavon's background:

Background:

Chavon learned his survival skills under the warm but firm guidance of his father, often serving as guide and guard between towns for the traveling merchants. However, unlike his father, Chavon found the chaotic elements introduced by the unpredictability of humans more fascinating than the ecology of the wilds, and adapted what he learned to city life as he parted ways from his father to strike out on his own.

Unfortunately, while Chavon found navigating amongst the lay of the city natural, maneuvering through the social interactions proved more difficult. Disagreements during the last few jobs left Chavon without a team or work, and he has taken to frequenting the various taverns, hoping to pick up word of a job or two...

Chavon has a carefree air about him, and has more luck interacting and navigating the city itself than the residents and visitors therein. Nonetheless, having been a base of operation all his life, Chavon has a certain affinity to Kharum and its welfare.

I did not equip him. If this is a concept that puts Chavon on the ballot, I'll be glad to add any more details you may like to see as well as equip him for that potential call to action.


@Dragonflyer

The party has been in the streets and inside a few houses.
Caverns, forest and other buildings will be on the road ahead.

This was started before the ACG came out, so i'm sticking to what i started with, just core and base classes.
It said at the creation, 1 feat, but that is of course calculating from 1st lvl.

Point of interest, by the time the group's finished with the pirate ship and downtime is going on, you will have heard of their exploits so far.


bump


Instead of max +300, starting gold will be 600.
It's little for lvl 3, but that's due to the team having strapped clean enemies who possessed little other than their gear.

Enemies will be having better loot after downtime.

Silver Crusade

I'd like to apply with an Inquisitor of Dammerich who will eventually be going into Battle Herald Waaaay down the line (Cavalier and Bard/Monk)

I'll have the Background/Character up shortly. Here we go.

Oh and I am known to post quite frequently.. unless something doesn't happen/I have nothing to respond for/etc..

Soo many things to catch up on when you get time off


Finally came up with a name and overall idea for him (The stats were killing me), posting this to have it connected to the campaign and finish the backstory/placing the class abilities in he sheet.


Thorn, your point buy looks like 24 to me.


Im Dual Talent.. Notice I only have 2 feats, The teamwork feat is from 3rd level Inquisitor.


Notice you get a free bonus feat from one of three i've posted.


Ahh I apologize let me fix that as well, I did not notice, Well he cannot be a local because he is Ulfen and Sargavin-blooded. Inquisitors have alot of abilities and I type it out so I absolutely remember all the abilities. Its easier so that posts come naturally with little thought on what skills or abilities I have or can do.


Is recruiting still full strength for this? I've an LE I'd most certainly love to pitch, as it's my most favored alignment.


Yes, recruitment's still open till the team can decide on someone.

Alignment....i prefer no E aligned, but with 1 LE on board, outright refusing would be improper.

You can post it if you want, but the pick goes to the players, who are N & G aligned.
Best to do is describe a bit what the approach is of LE for this character.


The clincher I've seen for them is more the frequent post rate and a nice backstory.. I made Thorn kinda to fit tha while giving them another Frontline. Man with all this stuff I should copypasta.. and make sure to use Notepad just in case paizo wants to eat my work.


Update

Alright ALL the mechanics, gonna place the fluff (background, Personality, Appearance) from notepad into Alias after work because its not finished yet. I basically have all the other stuff set up however.


OK, cool.


"Pleasure to meet you.", speaks the dwarf in front of you. Soot-dusted goggles rest upon his brow and well made armor covers his frame. "I am Father Burdock, a wandering priest of Torag. I heard you are looking for new blood among your unit. I myself am looking for duty, sharing my wisdom, skill, and steel across Avistan."

The cleric places a grappling hook, his smithing hammer, and a battleaxe on the table. Each one bears a maker's mark of a hammer emblazoned in fire. "For the Dwarffather, I take pride in my work.", pointing out the freshly sharpened edge of his axe and impeccably balanced talons of the grappling hook.

"If you will have me, I offer you Torag's guidance as well as my hammer at your side."


I apologize, I had intended to do this much earlier but lost internet for about 8 hours due to a storm. However, at least it seemed like we have gained another possible recruit, so all is well. Give me another hour and everything should be in order, hopefully I shall get the chance to play with you all. Either way the choice hopefully is one you will enjoy.


In case you forgot me, here is Chavon, at your service.


You have boon companion... but no companion? Did you originally take th one with the Bird?


I am going to get me a dog! Something like a Siberian Huskie. I've always been partial to the Huskie. The feat is so we have a good dog at level 4. I could wait until level 5 to get it, but it seems to make more sense that the dog comes awesome than suddenly becomes awesome after it comes.

I was going to buy a dog, but I'm kinda broke...


Yeah the issue being you cant take it until 5th because of the pre-reqs, I'm also broke otherwise I would have gotten heavier armor, Most likely taking Heavy Prof or something at 5th however.

Yeah for me it's always been a Wolf if I use ranger or get an animal companion unless it is some sort of particular theme with the character. Sadly Thorn does not have one.. Which is fine considering he is quite timid; he sees responsibility in every motion so he is hesitant at times. This is in contrast to his physical build and demeanor.


Ooh, that makes sense...wolf is pretty op, but dog for a city guy makes more sense (although the adventure may go out into the wild at some point if I read the GM's posts correctly). Gotta go switch it out for Deadly Aim for now. I'll have spend a level nursing the puppy before it hits the growth spurt. Thanks for that clarification Thorn.


I'm glad to see the team now has several options to choose from.
I was almost starting to get worried.

@ Father Burdock, background-wise:
You still get that 1 of those custom bonus feats i had in the spoiler.

@ Thorn Dulani: You're missing your bio, the most important here.

@ Chavon: There's several dogs in the goods & sevices under Animals tab.
You are human but sound like a half-elf in your bio, a secret plot up your sleeve? :)


Hrmm It seems to be saving oddly, let me try something else.


Alright Backstory is up I have to do his appearance and personality once again because it saved over that but they were a paragraph each. I hope you enjoy him.


Annnd the other two updated as well. Now its time to wait and see.

Yeaah I think I might take Cav at 5th.. most likely Dragon order.


What secret? There are no secrets from the DM, is there ;p ?

He purposely does not have a dog. I would like his AC to find him when the time comes. We could work it out when the time comes, or you can choose as fits the campaign.


Chavon will wait patiently, with great fidgeting and biting of the tongue...

DM:
Are you allowing commentary from the peanut gallery while the deliberations are taking place, or can I have a word or three for Grint..I mean, hold off until the decision is unveiled before telling Grint what Chavon thought of his vote.


Chavon:

If there is something you want to discuss in private, that is up to you.
But he's one of four. Make the character appealing to them, since class wasn't their focus.


DM:
Oh no, nothing that needs to be private. some people are uncomfortable if people interrupt them while they're deliberating...hmm, actually, that may be a good idea...


Three out of the four have voted Father Burdock to be our new team member.

Thorn & Chavon, thanks alot for the interest. Hopefully you'll find a great game to put these characters in.

Father Burdock, you can head over to discussion and i'll PM you on further details.


Meh, sometimes that is the way, He is a cleric as well its kinda hard to compete. I made Thorn for this really so Ah well. Hope it goes well. Good job all.


I see how it is. It's Grint, isn't it. Still holding that grudge. C'mon, Thorn. There's a good tavern just around the corner. You can buy me a drink there...

Grumble...grumble...may be I WILL name that dog Grint after all...
