Pathfinder campaign in the Bronx (NYC)

I need one, maybe two players for what I hope will be an on-going, long term campaign, set on Golarion using the Pathfinder RPG rules. Characters are starting at first level and we'll be using the slow advancement XP table.

To save a lot of time, let me tell you what the non-negotiables are:

1) I'm hoping to find experienced gamers, namely those around my age (mid-thirties) and who have gamed long enough to have played D&D before third edition. The reason I'm looking for gamers who will serve as great examples of what happens at the gaming table is because...

2) The two players I already have are newbies. They're two eighteen-year-olds I've taught for their entire high school careers. They asked as their graduation presents for me to keep gaming with them, and to raise the bar above what we were able to do with the limitations of playing at school as students/teacher. So I'm trying to make the best game for them I can.

3) I need people who love to role play.

4) It would be nice if you know the rules and you're familiar with the Pathfinder setting, but if you're prone to arguing rules or spending endless amounts of time finding the perfect build to max out your numbers this isn't the game for you.

5) Also, if you're a nut or a freak, things won't work out. I plan on running the games out of my apartment, where I live with my girlfriend and my cats, and none of us need or want someone creepy lurking around.

6) Yes, cats. So if you have allergies, be ready to pop a Zyrtec (I do once a day).

7) Yes, the Bronx. All the way up near Riverdale. I'm convenient to the 1 and the 4. But I'm running the game up here. I hate lugging hundreds of pounds of books on the subway, and there's no way I'm taking minis I've worked on for hours out of the apartment.

8) All PCs must be a Good alignment and must be races/classes found in the PFRPG. So far the party will include a human ranger and a half-orc barbarian.

God, I've made a list of expectations for my game. Can you tell I'm getting ready to switch into teacher mode in two weeks?

Oh! That reminds me of the last thing...

9) In theory I'd like to play every third Saturday, from about noon into the evening. However, I easily begin to drown in work as the school year moves on (this year I have even less time to plan at school than normal, and now I have the added responsibility of developing experimental science classes for students who need a little extra help along the way (which means, on top of all the other things I'm doing I'm also going to be teaching myself physics and chemistry in the next ten months (as an English major who's gone out of his way to avoid any and all math classes I'm not looking forward to this)). This is all to say that things might derail here and there, but I'm really hoping they won't and we can stick to that schedule.

I doubt anyone wants to make the trip up here to join in, but we're up to four players now. I'd maybe like to fifth. You'd have to be a sorcerer or wizard though- we already have a barbarian, a ranger, a cleric, and a rogue.

I'll let this thread return to collecting dust now. :)


I would, but the Bronx is a hike from Park Slope (I am the Mayor of Babytown).

It is my curse, no matter the city, to always be on the periphery of civilization.

I might be interested. I dont fit your criteria perfectly (I am in my mid 20's but have been role playing for more then a decade, so I guess its a matter of opinion as to how far my experience goes). You are a hike for me but i dont have a problem with making the trip on a saturday. I have before.

Arcane casters are also my preference so i can certainly play either a wizard or a sorc as the party might need.
