We have a PbP homebrew Pathfinder game we have been playing for a few months now - characters just got to level 2. We take turns DMing, roughly a month at a time. Unfortunately, due to school restarting, etc, we are losing 3 of our players this week and need to replace them.
Because we are collaboratively building the gameworld and rotating DM duties, DMing will be necessary for all at some point, but experience is not specifically necessary.

Hi,
I would be happy to play and DM in that setting. I'm a quite new D20 player but long term gamer with DM experience in other systems. I am currently playing in two other PbP for more than 6 months and was considering DMing but this collective world building sounds even better to me. I've skimmed through the PbP and will read more later and I have two possible characters in mind. One would be a mounted gnome paladin but you still have one in Fubar. The other one would be a cold based Sorcerer (either silver dragon or one from the APG). I'll tell more once I'm at home with my books.
Sounds good! Welcome aboard! Note that we have decided to restrict material to Pathfinder OGC and APG (basically what you can get on the net for free). Also note the character trait options you can use (refer to original thread).
Any character you feel like playing (within these guidelines) is fine!
Sounds good to me.
I've taken time to read through all the links provided, character creation guidelines and all the thread. I'll post a character tomorrow when I've got more time to do it and to think about the background. I'm going to go with a Boreal Sorceress as per the APG. she'll be local but living more out of town than in, wandering where she feels like.I've also logged on Obsidian Portal as Llaelian
Invite sent!
Invite sent!
Thanks.
Character is ready to go on Paizo.com and will be transferred to Obsidian Portal ASAP (later today as it is already 1 AM from where I post).

And still 2 more
How much time do I have to prepare the character? I'm on a business trip right now, but I should return home tomorrow and be able to finish my character by the end of the week. Since your links seem to be dead, can you tell me is the game point buy and how many points? I'm thinking on Holly Warrior variant of Cleric, if it's allowed.
Hi Nightflier,
You can find the characters and character creation guidelines here. To summarize: PF Core + APG, 2 traits, 25 points buy and level 2 (1300 XP, fast xp chart)
Here are the links for the original recruitment thread and game thread .
As for the characters remaining, we have Caydee Brunland, an elven ranger, Fubar, a !/2 orc Paladin and Azhateran Slug, a human cleric.
I'm just joining the group with Vardara, a human Paladin/Boreal sorceress.

Okay, this sounds very interesting. I think that perhaps I would be stepping on to many toes if I decide to play Holy Warrior, so perhaps I should choose something else. Any suggestion from DM or other players.
A ranger/rogue might be nice......

I'm interested in joining. I haven't DM'd Pathfinder yet or a pbp for that matter, but am willing to give it a go. I'm not sure yet on a character concept. I'm at work, so don't really have time for a character concept this moment. If I think of something I will post again. I assume you've moved on to the APG for character creation. Let me know if there is still a space available.
I think having you aboard would be a great thing.....
Just make a PC second level based on the original thread.
We welcome people trying out the DM thing!
I think that might be the last slot!!!
And yes APG is open!

Step all over toes, I say!
Really, play whatever sounds fun to you. I've been having fun developing this character, but if we end up healer or combat heavy, I can always switch classes too.We are a bit light on roguery and int magic, and can always use a solid tank. Bards can help everyone. Whatever the helle you want to play, play it!
And yeah, you have time.
Llae, thanks for the post to bring him up to speed, I'll let you do this next time :).
We're rotating into Caydee's DM shift at the moment - Caydee doesn't have a lot of DM experience and we're moving some people in and out, so will be a bit getting things sorted out.
See you on the flip side!
I think I may go with a rogue or a ranger.

Hey nightflier, play whatever you want.
On a plus side, I would find it good for the story if we could tie our backgrounds somehow, so as to rejoin the first party together.Llaelian
I decided to go with an Earth Wizard.
My user name is aldo Shaundakul on Obsidian. For the introductory post, is that going to be us meeting up together, with the new party or something else. I think we should assume the three of us ventured out together. Any opinions?
That would make sense. as the other group has been chasing stolen artefacts, we could have been sent to catch them the next day. Vardara because she is a Paladin of Asterius and sent there by the head cleric of the town. And maybe Tarkum because of his knowledge on magic, engineering and that sort of things.
This is Grashnak, Nightflier's ranger. I still have to add description and background. How do we determine starting gold and hit points for 2nd level?
We decided on max hitpoints per level......
As far as gear goes we are actually a little behind the wealth ratio for 2nd level PC's.....
(happens wandering the frozen wastes!!!)
No reason to assume your PC was treasure deprived during level 1 into 2, your gear is fine.....
Next DM should be making up the difference....
Sorry for disappearing. My internet connection went down. I'm back now. So, what should I do now? Introduce my character in the game thread?No reason to assume your PC was treasure deprived during level 1 into 2, your gear is fine.....
Next DM should be making up the difference....
Yes, go ahead, I've started things for our second group.
I'd be interesting!
has the requirements/level/anything changed since the original post so long ago??
The PCs are pushing towards 3 so level 2 is what is needed for now.
I'd be interested to join. Haven't any preferences to what class yet though.
I'm also interested. I have a pretty super available posting schedule during the day and have plenty of experience both playing and DMing tabletop, but am just getting into PBP. I'd be willing to play whatever class role needs to be filled at the moment. If there's still room I can go ahead and put together a character.
Sounds good, I'll keep an eye on this thread. I was browsing your game thread some the other day and from your current makeup I figure you could use a Bard or a Rogue the most so I put together 2nd level characters for each of those in case spots open up. I'm leaning towards the Bard since #1 I've never actually played a Bard before and #2 his name is Hoppin' Robbo and he's a dancing Halfling who sounds like he'd be a lot of fun to play. If you end up getting some sort of Witch or Wizard or something I may end up going with the Rogue though as they're always fun times.
I've decided to play as a true neutral human monk, if that's okay with you. I'll get a character up based on the guidelines here . Advance to level 2?
I'll be using this character for the game, haven't finished yet. BTW, do I start gold at level 1 (60gp) or level 2 (1000gp)?
