Howdy, I'll make a Val avatar later. Any changes in character creation process, houserules, etc...
I'm not a very experienced DM, so I'd like to stay as close to official PFRPG rules as possible.
We'll be using this resource as much as possible:
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/
Everyone please add one new level to your character.
I'll be back with more 12 hours from now.

@#$%!!! :P
PS.
There were no non-bald Male Asians in there that was in my character's age group. I think I saw a few older grandpa types with hair and beards.
Edit: I'm thinking of Multi-classing into Rouge, do we already have a rouge or does some else have a better suggestion?

Okay, I got a profile, put in my old character sheet from the RPOL game. How do I get a picture attached to this profile?... Never mind I figured it out.
Oh, yeah, I got to add a level.
Is there a way to post private messages to the GM or other players? Is there a dice roller here?

There is a dice roller, implemented as a BBcode tag. For example [ dice]1d20[/dice] (leave out the space after the first '[')
For PMs, you can mail me at barshevy at yahoo.com

I know you want to stay as close to official PFRPG rules as possible, but DM Dread had his own modified 3.5 classes. Currently I am playing a Swashbuckler/Monk. He also okay'ed a bunch of 3.5 feats have and am planning on taking. Should I email the class progression and feats to you?
dice testing:
1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

Sheet is still on its way. For this one, I'm making a separate sheet including my level 3 changes, since we don't know when Dread will be back and we don't know how (or if) he's going to keep going with that part of the adventure path. I hope that's OK. Not that I don't trust either of our DMs, but I want to make sure I don't get my stats confused.

Good idea.

Actually I'm still level 4, I just put down the level increase...we are leveling up to 5 right?
If I remember correctly, everyone was level 3 when I joined this game and he was going to limit my XP until it evened out...
...So wait...everyone is going from 3 to 4 then? Sorry I missed something...what's going on now?

Would you mind staying at level 4?

I can if you wish, I'm just waiting for the time where I can get my stuff back and either build or buy a new longarm. So instead of leveling up during the timeskip, the ability to get some stuff would be nice.
Okay, seeing as there's going to be a timeskip and stuff, how are we going to deal with that?
Like Dread had this subplot with me and the local Tian Tavern Owner. There was letters of introduction and family seal involved I think.
Also JZ, what's your stance on the subject of science? My perceptions of Tian is that it's like 17th to 18th century Asia, so knowledge of the sciences would be fairly strong. Would Craft(Alchemy) and Know(Engineering) cover that?

Most of the stuff you'll see from me this weekend will be wrapping up what happened in Sandpoint and Thistletop. There won't be much you guys can actually do, yet.
I'll have to think about how your craft and knowledge will be affected. DM Dread is a very inventive DM and likes to work with players and tailor the rules to reflect their backgrounds. I'm not that kind of DM, I'm afraid. If you take a look at the adventures I'm running, I'm more about pushing the game forward, sticking close to the published adventure.
