Alright, I need everyone to supply me with the following:
Player Name (The name I will be putting on the chronicle sheet):
Character Name:
PFS #:
Day Job:
Perception modifier:
Initiative modifier:
Also: PatheticWretch, I'm Hiding In Your Closet, and Magabeus. I need you three to click on my name (GM Upaynao) and let me know that you have read my expectations and are ok with them.

Player Name: I'm Hiding In Your Closet
Character Name: Lucija Lal Rani
PFS #: 40025-1
Day Job:
Perception modifier: Lucija's - 0; Naghamadi's - +10
Initiative modifier: Lucija's - +1; Naghamadi's - +4 (in case there's cause to roll or otherwise consider separately)
Also: I have a standardized tag-line across my characters and am not used to posting what effects are on me (I don't care for terms like "buffs," I've had my fill of MMOs), but I can fix that for you I guess. Also, I have mental health issues that occasionally inhibit my performance, so it would be nice if there were a touch of leniency in certain things. Other than that, I don't see why there should be issues. I'm involved with this pretty much every day, and I seldom have problems.

You don't have to have things laid out strictly as I've put them in my profile. My only concern in that regard is transparency, so that everyone knows where everyone stands. In my experience having everything up front and center avoids misunderstandings, and I don't want to be making a mistake over a misunderstanding. Not this early in my PbP GMing. Also, if the terminology bothers you, "Active Spells" is just as good in my eyes.
With that said, I will be lenient. Thanks for letting me know!
@PatheticWretch You're very welcome.

Good to know, Lucija. +13 UMD is pretty handy!
Gotta say, if Magabeus brings his staff magus, this will be a pretty strong group, with very good arcane, melee and ranged firepower. And this is before we know what the 6th player is bringing.
I agree we are a little weak in divine/healing, but maybe CLW/infernal healing wands might cover us?

Yes - they're sending the Hellknights a pretty Chaotic group, aren't they (with a nice mixture of Good and not-quite-Evil, even)? Reminds me of a joke :E
Speaking of which, I do have an issue of concern for you, Eadie: Your listed patron deity is all the way across the board from you alignment-wise (CG versus LN), and that's actually against the rules in Pathfinder Society, even for those who don't have any truck with divine magic. It's possible you could sneak in under the "venerate as opposed to worship" clause, but that would still block you from benefiting from any Abadar-affiliated traits/feats/magic items/whatever.

I greatly respect the rules PFS uses to ensure a uniformly excellent experience for a group of people with different backgrounds and viewpoints coming together to have fun. Lucija, your commitment to the rules is laudable and I salute you fit it! :)
She was ‘made’ to work in the Golden Vault. She hated it. She rebelled against the Faith and her Aunt. They fought like cats-and-dogs about it. Then her Aunt died in an accident. Eadie pretended to blame Abadar while deep down she blamed HERSELF.
Eadie tried running away from Abadar and her guilt by joining the Pathfinder Society. On her first mission, Eadie believes Abadar found her again. She thinks Abadar saved the life of one of her companions, and so she ‘graciously’ decided to give Him a second chance.
Does Eadie understand the tenets of the Faith? Is she truly a believer? Does Abadar think of Eadie as one of his flock? Did the god save her companion? Possibly … Quite possibly not.
But Eadie thinks He did and respects Him for it. So is she a pious, credit card-carrying, one-step-removed, money-hungry WORSHIPPER of the Master of the First Vault? Nope.
But does this crazy, lovable, murderous agent of Chaos maintain an unlikely but undeniable LINK with the Celestial Zillionaire of Zillionaires? I think so. And man, it’s been fun to watch it develop ;)
So in summary, thank-you Lucija for giving me the excuse opportunity to tell you all more about my character! ;)

That's quite a story.
I wouldn't say I'm "committed to the rules" as much as I "know what they are" - it's like "society's law" vs "the laws of physics," and the rules of a game should be viewed as the latter. It was Anaximander's mistake to conflate the two in Western thought, though Einstein did a lot to cleave them apart again.

Player Name: Gerard
Character Name: Kintampo
PFS #: 24861 - 6
Slow advancement
Day Job: Borderland Keep: regain 1 PP that was spend earlier
Perception modifier: +11
Initiative modifier: +3
I have read your expectations and am ok with them. Having said that, my average posting rate in the weekends is slower that once a day. If that is an issue I will step down.
I have a wand of infernal healing and UMD +7, but can't use the wand of CLW.
I thought about bringing my swashbuckler / paladin, but decided against it as as she uses a lot of immediate actions (with parry/reposte and step up and strike I get to do something almost every round), which works a lot better at the table than in PbP.

Either way we do. I just want to check in with a local player and good friend of mine GreenJacketGuy. He wanted to try PbP so I gave him a slot here. However, if he doesn't show up, I'll give the slot to SkipperD
Also: Whooo boy. The group least likely to aid Hellknights is sent to aid Hellknights. What possibly could go wrong? lmao

"In a nutshell" nods Zarta as she sashays towards Eadie. "That shouldn't prove too difficult, especially to big, strong Pathfinder agents" she adds with a smirk, lightly tracing the contour of the fighter's armored bicep as she turns her attention to the tiefling and the -flanked gnome.
*Protean* - "prometheans" are White Wolf's version of Frankenstein's monster(s).

SkipperD here. Looking through the other characters, I've decided that we sorely need someone with double digits in the social skills. So...
Player name: Andreas F
Character name: Miklos Lebeda
PFS#: 35574-10
Dayjob: None
Perception: +8
Initiative: +6 (+2 when weapon is drawn)
Edit: Miklos has a UMD of +14, so he'll be of some help wand-wise.

Casting it to get another attack through spellstrike ;-) Arcane mark is a touch attack, so a magus can use his weapon to deliver it. With spellcombat I get to attack AND cast a spell. If that spell is a touch attack I can use my weapon to deliver it. That effectively gives me two attacks.
I assumed I was not hasted, given that I had already gone of to help the hellknights in round 1. Otherwise a full attack with haste would be the better option.

The orc woman spits, and takes aim at the spellcaster.[dice=Bow vs Lucija]1d20 + 10
[dice=damage]1d8+4
[dice=Bow vs Lucija]1d20 + 5
[dice=damage]1d8+4Both arrows find their mark, and the orc-woman grins.
Wait! I just remembered: Naghamadi's been providing me with a +2 bonus to armor class and saving throws (not normally factored in since he isn't always right under me), so that first shot didn't hit, and I just made that saving throw against the second explosion! 16 damage un-taken (and statistics line adjusted)!

You understand now why I was insistent on a stat-line that was as clear as possible :D

Just as a heads up!
Once this game is over (and you are getting close to the "denouement" if I may use the term), I plan on offering 5-23 Cairn of Shadows. This is part of a trade with GM Granta who is GMing Beyond Azlant Ridge for me, a scenario where I hope to die ignominiously.
Since you folks seem to at least tolerate my drivel to keep on posting regularly, I will let you know that I plan on having about 3-4 seats open for you folks should you be interested, leaving a seat for a person off the boards.
Message me if you are interested.

I'm going to start filling out chronicle sheets since we are so close to the denoument as they say.
In the meantime, if you are still up for it here is my sign up sheet for Cairn of Shadows. Those of you who already expressed interest have been signed up with the characters you played in this game (of course you can change that, I'm just a simple man).
Pay no attention to the others I haven't finalized anything with regards to Scars of the Third Crusade and my current players + I'm Hiding in your closet have dibs on the spots in Shadow's Last stand part 2.
