Hi all!
I'm going to go ahead and pick up a second pbp campaign to DM on these boards, and I'm just too darn enthused about the Legacy of Fire AP to wait any longer. I know the first installment isn't even available yet, but the advance copy of the Player's Guide (not to mention that the first adventure's author is Erik Mona), has sold me. Let's go ahead and get a group together now, and hopefully we'll be ready to roll as soon as Howl of the Carrion King hits.
This will be PFRPG Beta rules, and I'm looking for 5 1st-level PCs (maybe 6 at most). 20 point buy for stats, no evil alignments, campaign trait selected from the LoF Player's Guide (if you don't have it, I can provide these...lack of PG should not be considered a barrier to playing).
I anticipate, since this is a brand new AP, that there could be a lot of interest. If that's the case, I invite everyone who is interested to throw your hat in the ring, and I'll draw names randomly after 2-3 days, with everyone else on the alt list. It seems like the fairest way to handle things. If, for some reason, I don't get at least four people within a day, I'll just take the firstcomers.
Let's do Katapesh right. Who's with me?
I hope you're right, Xaaon! Thanks.
You know what, I'm interested. So, can someone post some information at least on the area the game takes place in, so those of us who can't/won't buy the Player's Guide have a batter idea about the lovely city of Kapatesh?
I would like in,
Cool, we've got some interest already!
I'll keep a running list of the names thrown into the ring for the next couple of days, and then I'll draw five or six from a (virtual) hat.
So far:
1. Scribbling Rambler
2. Craig Shackleton
3. Davi The Eccentric
4. seekerofshadowlight
As for rolling dice, Rambler, I like Invisible Castle. But, I'm not too hung up on rolling dice, so if you have something else you prefer you're welcome to use that instead.
Davi, I'll try to get some barebones info about Katapesh posted in the near future. In the meantime, if you check out the product descriptions for the PF Chronicles Guide to Katapesh, the Legacy of Fire AP volumes, and the LoF Player's Guide, it should give you a rough idea of what we're looking at.

I'd love to join! Please count me interested.
could you please put my name into your virtual hat?
Does it start in Katapesh? I thought it started in Osirion for some reason...
Can I throw my name in with a low priority?
i would like to join as well if theres room
The updated list of names in the hat so far:
1. Scribbling Rambler
2. Craig Shackleton
3. Davi The Eccentric
4. seekerofshadowlight
5. Count Buggula
6. Hokory
7. deathboy
8. Valkyrie Paine
9. Nasserath
To those who were inquiring as to whether there is still room in the game, please read my first post. I will continue to accept names for another day or so, and then draw names randomly.
So, anybody else out there who has an interest, just speak up.

From the information in the PG, it does appear to be Katapesh.
IC is a great utility, but I can't always access it. We can figure out a workaround if I get in.
I'd be fine with you rolling physical dice, even, and just reporting the results. There has to be a certain element of trust at baseline to make these things work, in my opinion. I'm not worried.
Please consider my name submitted for the lottery ;)

Okay, you know what, we've got about three times as much interest as I have game, so I'm going to go ahead and put a halt to name tossing now. I want to at least preserve some kind of decent odds for those who've jumped in already.
So, expect the names of the players later today. I'd do it now, but I have to get some work done first. :(
Other comments:
@deathboy, no apology needed. I didn't mean to call anybody out, I was just hoping to be sure everyone knew how I was handling this process.
@Rob, I have every confidence in your ability to separate IC and OOC knowledge. With so much information about Paizo's APs available on these boards (not to mention PF subscriptions, etc.), it would frankly be easy for anyone to obtain spoilers about the adventures if they wanted to. I trust all of you.
@Wrath, the beauty of PBP is that it's fairly 'time zone proof'. No worries at all.
Agh, Paizo just ate my nice post!
The shorter version: I just ran an integer sequence through random.org, and here's how it shook out.
13. Larcifer

I've decided to roll with 6 PCs, so first dibs goes to:
Larcifer
Valkyrie Paine
Craig Shackleton
Scribbling Rambler
Count Buggula
Dryder
More in a sec...
Apologies to all those who didn't get their number drawn, but please keep an eye on this thread if you were close to the top six, just in case any of the first six changes his/her mind and bows out.
As a consolation, let me say that I'm sure several other PBP games for this AP will be popping up over the next few weeks.
Okay, I've created a Discussion thread here! For those who got in, let's take matters of character creation over there. But, if an alt spot opens up, I'll post here and offer the spot to the next person in order.
Thanks everyone for your interest and time!
Wow! Dead last for me! I may just have to run my own game...
Have fun, guys! :)
I know, I chuckled when I saw that. Guess it wasn't meant to be.
every one have fun with this, we are gonna have to get more folks running it it seems :}
Rats, didn't see this until it was too late; there's always next time.

This looks awesome.
I hope you guys have fun with my adventure!
Thanks Erik!!
I think that we're off to a promising start.
Here is the game thread if you want to see how our characters are messing everything up.
Thanks Erik!
I know we'll have a blast with this. It's a great adventure, you've really outdone yourself.
