Is the world Golarion and which classes are allowed? Also, the only thing I could find suggests it is for 7th level characters. Scroll down a little bit.
Dotting...
Here is my former Slumbering Tsar character, back when Mortika was running the show.
Kratzee, they upgraded the Slumbering Tsar to PF rules HERE
Thanks Eric. Is the background for the setting in that first pdf for us to peruse as characters?
So 6th level or 7th level? How do we do HP after level 1? Action points? Starting funds from PF core book.
Oh and dot...
I'm in! Depending on what level I'll introduce my old Slumbering Tsar character.
Here's Mikka, but I can create another character if you'd prefer
Schwat? If there is room I'm in.
I had lost two other characters in the first game. RIP Chyressa, and Montague but had made up Spencer a LG healing machine Cleric. I could bring him back, as he never even adventured.
I just need to upgrade his starting stats, and go through the APG for any cool changes.

Here we go... 28 point buy. Character traits from my profile allowed. You can use anything published by Paizo as is, including new magus class. Allowed 3.5 classes: warlock, beguiler, binder. Allowed PFRPG 3PP and fan-created clases: Ardwright. Races allowed: Everything published by Paizo, including tiefling and playable Bestiary monsters. Level 7th. Maximum hit points. Wealth equal to 10th level characters. World will not be Golarion, but my own Home Brew, but your characters can hail from Golarion or anywhere else - whatever you like. Some things in the adventure will be changed, mostly because of the changed world - stuff about gods, races and similar things. Your characters will be considered strange if they are not human, because traditional races are slightly different in my world.
Make your characters really tough because I am going to throw a lot of s!%$ at you.
Got it ;D
So we have a Druid, Cleric healer, and a Rogue/Sorcerer.
So we need tough guy and magic guy.
I was thinking about a cleric of Norgorber, not for the evil but for the secrets and with a homebrew dieties I could pull it off easier. Or I'd like to make a magus.
If I need to be the melee guy, I don't mind at all because I really like the melee classes. I have to force myself not to play them.
You can use anything published by Paizo as is, ....
Would that include the War College Fighter variant fromthe Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting? If it does, I think an Aldori type warrior would be fun.
I can't work on my character tonight (Playing Kingmaker for about 5 or 6 hours tonight; Spell-less Ranger is rockin'!!!) but hopefully by Sunday night I can have something ready.
I was gonna make a rage prophet but I can make an indestructible fighter instead if we need a melee guy. Also, nightflier, any chance I could bring a version of Zissaren back, minus the half dragon (and the crazy strength and constitution that went with it) and with the oracle and rage prophet levels?
Yeah University is taking up a lot of my time, but I think I can handle posting at least once per day in each pbp. The reason there have been so few posts from Lem is less of a time thing and more of a lack of connection to the game. I just couldn't get into it. I liked the character idea of Lem but when it came to actually writing for him I kept coming up blank.
Dotting.
Giving some thought to character stuff. Hmm.

How many players are you looking for? Is this invite only? I ask because Sorok and Viscount and I had an interesting idea for a trio of career soldiers that we'd love to play. Kind of roman legionnaire-ish.
A few questions.
1) Is there any terrain other than desert? I'm considering terrain based traits.
2) What are the deities in your world?
I'm gonna post some details about the world later today - type of terrain, gods, bits of history and stuff like that.
Doomed, I'll probably limit this game to six players. With you there are five.
As for the others who are interested, please submit your character concepts and then we'll see.
The concept is loose right now. Basically they would be part of a squad of infantry from some very militant plane, stranded in a world not their own and trying to get back. They would be kind of a 3-man phalanx, based around reach weapons and tower shields, defensive combat styles (High AC and HP, lots of attacks of opportunity) and very team oriented ability combinations. They would all have identical feats (being that they were all trained together in the same way) but have different stats and outlooks.
I suppose it works with only 2 players, but it means I'm going to have put the other guys into a death match for who gets the slot. Assuming you're willing to let one of them in.
The specific details of where they're from and how they got to wherever they are now are open to suggestion. We have some ideas, but we'll burn that bridge later.
Looks like Doomed and friends have the martial aspect covered (and it reminds me of Black Company quiet closely) so I'll look into the caster role. Right not I am thinking of a Drow Noble...hahaha just kidding. Just plain Drow sorcerer or a wizard, probably Tiefling. I've only played a wizard once in PFS up to third level so this may turn out to be interesting.
Edit: Ok Wizard it is and I'll be taking the Intelligence trait at least once. Hello 22 Intelligence!!!
Your character's background is basically offworld. That is, you can create it with your favorite world in mind, and just transplant him or her into this game, with a story of how he got there.
So do we use the gods from our "Homeworld" or do we use an equivalent from this world?

Whatever you like. I'm gonna post my gods when I finish with work for today, but there are basically just five good or neutral gods, so the choice is not that big.
Considering swapping fire domain with weather and taking the storms subdomain replacement. Any thoughts?

I like the Storm Burst buffeting ability. -2 to attacks no save, noice!
Gale aura's also awesome for a caster, turns 30ft around you into difficult terrain for enemies and no 5ft steps
Still haven't gotten a final ruling on either the concept, or the numbers.
Me, Me and one other? All three of us? Does the concept sound ok?
Do you really think 3 fighters will be an interesting enough concept to geet past the clone feeling once the initial intros and characterization is done?
I can see a 3 man unit that compliments eack other using feats and fighter variants that compliment each other but the same feats and fighter format?
Whichever has the more dynamic personality would make the others seem like clones.
OK I've retooled as an Aasimar Cleric. Just got to do some research and find the perfect Diety, then figure out how to get here.

We've thought of that actually. Physically, they will be very similar. Mentally, one will be the face (charisma), one will be the brains (Int), and one will be the heart (Wisdom). We intend to play them as grizzled old buddies, something along the lines of The Expendables or the Warriors Three from norse mythology. They all pretty much have the same job, but their personalities are quite a bit different. Probably the best comparison would be from the movie 300, where there was the King, the Bard and the Captain as some of the main soldiers. They fought together as an amazing unit, all with the same combat style, but no one would ever get them confused.
Mechanically, they're built around a handful of feats that grant bonuses to people next to them. They work great with anyone in the party, but with each other they will be truly impressive.
Very cool
Not actually sure if there is a slot still open or not but I'll post something anyway, seeing as there are now both casters and melee people possibly I reckon I could be an archer, never really made a ranged combat character before but I'd give it a go. Either ranger all the way or be moving toward arcane archer. As for a concept I'm not quite sure yet. Possibly a young hunter who was tracking a rabbit or something and did the Alice thing of tumbling down a hole with a portal at the bottom. Floated through the void for a while seeing flashes of the past and future and other bizarre universes (actually an alright reason to have a level of witch), began hearing voices whispering strange secrets to him out of the nothingness. Eventually popped out of said void into Nightflier's world and there is the rabbit right in front of him. He reaches out to it but it speaks to him in the same voice as the void, tells him it is his constant companion now and that it will teach him secrets to become the perfect hunter. Years pass and he grows older, honing his skills hunting strange beasts all over the odd new world.
This way he could know a bit more about the world than the rest of the group and be acting as some kind of Sherpa/guide/local expert.
EDIT: Sorry if the punctuation and stuff in this post isn't to brilliant, typing on a smart phone is a pain.

Okay, so here is some stuff about the world - what you would know as new arrivals: The Long War just ended. It lasted for an Age, some say 10 000 years, some say more. As the result of The Long War, the world has changed. On the continent of Norgir a mini ice age rules. Even the summer feels as the depths of winter on more moderate worlds. Food is scarce and resources are tight. The intelligent races of the world have changed as well. Elves are grim shadow-worshiping folk, dwarves have waged their own Unification Wars that have resulted in the blending of all dwarven subraces into one, as well as assimilating gnomes into the mix. All the goblinoid races have been conquered by the hags and blended with trolls to create gobrolls and the orcs and the ogres were used as living weapons by the forces of Hell, so they have interbred during the milenia. Their descendants are might orgars.
Humans worship the Penteon: Five Elder Gods.
Sol, the god of sun, law, statehood, wealth, prestige etc.
Luna, the goddess of moon, sailors, seas, magic, dreams, secrets, love etc.
Gaia, the goddess of earth, fertility, agriculture, womanhood, motherhood etc.
Aron, the god of sky, storms, thunder, wilderness, mountaintops etc.
Mitra, the good of justice, military ventures, strength, good etc.
Kratzee as Kun-Sun Min, explorer and seeker of knowledge.
(Obviously with a lot of work to be done.)
Nightflier, are 3.5 feats allowed? If so, I would like to Kung-Fu Genius.
Kung Fu Genius [General
Intelligence 13 Must be taken before or
at the same time as gaining Monk level 1st
Use your Intelligence modifier in place of your Wisdom modifier for all Monk class abilities normally based on Wisdom.

Chops. Maybe we could work out a Felix and Oscar type relationship between your tiefling, and my Aasimar. Still looking for a world to be from, so if you're interested let me know.
Looking forward to following this one.

Sorry, but no. Only Pathfinder.

That would be fun and funny. I had to google Felix and Oscar, but I understand the dynamics. They could be long time friends and explorers together. My concept is that he is a an explorer and hunter of rare knowledge. I plan on taking the Loremaster Prc when I can.
Off the top of my head, we could be from Greyhawk. You might be a cleric of Fharlanghn. We might be running from the Scarlett Brotherhood or something.
I can't finish my thoughts yet, wife is dragging me out to shop.
Sorry, but no. Only Pathfinder.
Poop. Re-build.

Sorry. I forget how old I am sometimes ;-). I was thinking about maybe a real goody two shoes cleric (Pholtus, or St. Cuthbert maybe), who made some major mistake, and was forced to serve penance by accompanying your character for some reason, and just hasn't been able to stop, so now they bicker and disagree, but trust and rely on each other. (Yin and Yang) Each early adventure probably ended with...
"This is the last time I'm letting you get me into this kind of thing".
"Good"! "More treasure for me".
Them months later.
"Well I guess I can't let you go off on your own". "You'll only get yourself killed, and who knows how many bastard children would cry for their father". "Give me a moment to get my things together".
And of course when you foolishly jumped into that mirror, thinking the hoard on the other side was a real treasure...and I pulled the rope back, but it had been sheared...and after minutes of footstamping and demanding that you return immediately..."Well I guess I'll have to go and bring him back personally "Sigh".
Food for thought anyway!!!
Any chance I could be a kobold? Mostly because kobolds are awesome and a kobold scout/guide amuses me. This is of course dependant on me actually being in the game, but I like making up the characters.

I think something like that would be fun.
And I've updated to pure mage. More spells with more power!

We can be any race in the bestiary that is PC-able.

Okay, so far we have
Rasina (Rogue/Sorcerer) - Eric
Mikka (Druid) - Marc
Kun-Sun Min (Wizard) - Kratzee
X (cleric) - Scranford
That's four characters. With Doomed and his friends that's seven and G. would make it eight. That's as high number of players as I am willing to take for this game.
Those who are not familiar with Slumbering Tsar - this game is more deadlier even than Midnight.

Cannot argue with that. by the way Mikka, did you want to continue our acquaintences from the previous campaign?

Oh believe me. I know first hand. I plan on healing myself every half hour just be sure. ;-)
Here is the preliminary work on the character
Definitely a worhipper of Aron on this world. Yeah I like that although Iam shifting a bit altering from fire to storms and making a few changes.
Gah, I change my mind a lot. Right, after messing around with an archer for a while I kinda realised that being an archer seemed pretty dull and am now back to the Rage Prophet, I think a small Rage Prophet would be amusing to rp (Furious children are hilarious and that is what I imagine a gnome to be like)so I'm going to go with a Gnome. Completely change the backstory too but never mind. Lalala, character creation is so fun.
