AJs Dad Toys with Ptolus


Gamer Connection


I am considering running a Ptolus campaign on the boards here. Early days yet, but I would require 6 players. We would be using 3.5 rules and I would be looking for players who were willing to post on a regular, daily basis and really get into the role of the character.

All races and classes would be from the standard 3.5 players handbook.

I would require 2 fighter types, 1 wizard, 1 cleric, 1 rogue and 1 other.

Starting level will probably be 1.

Familiarity with the setting is not required and to be honest I would probably prefer a fresh outlook on the game.

Once I have picked players I will post a load of info on the setting and player aids on a seperate thread.

Cheers.

(I am already running a ROTRL game here as well.)


I'd be very interested in this if you switched it to Pathfinder. Not entirely sure I'm up for digging all the 3.5 stuff back out...

Was in the RotRl campaign for the very beginning, and was going to come back but when I checked back in it looked like you had a pretty full house. Glad to hear things are still going well.

Good to hear from you Faust. How is Grog? You are lucky as I have slept on this and I think I will go with Pathfinder rules instead. I will have to convert on the fly but it shouldnt be too difficult I think. Again, it will just be base classes from the main rules.


I'd be interested.

No APG I assume?

Thats okay. I'd be happy to play anything, I'm a regualr poster, check out some of my other games for examples.

What are the gods in Ptolus? If the pantheon is interesting I'd be happy to play a cleric.

Point buy or rolling for stats?


No APG, sorry. Stats are 4d6 and pick best 3. Full hp at first level. I will put some details on the setting on a discussion thread entitled AJ's Dads Ptolus background soon. Also, could people let me know how familiar they are with the setting. It doesnt make any difference. Im just curious.


I'd like a spot as well please.

I know nothing about Ptolus other than it involves a city of some kind?
I think?

Well at least I won't need to unlearn anything.

I like me some Ptolus. I've got the hardcover, and 2-3 of the players guides, but have neither played nor ran in the city. Would love to. I've got a concept for a pole-arm fighter...maybe ex or current city guard. I'd like a spot.


I'd like to join in - but only if you'll have the patience to deal with a PBP-newbie. :)
I can post regularly (once or twice per day) and am familiar with most basic Pathfinder rules (though most of my experience comes from D&D 3.x a few years back).

Not familiar with Ptolus, by the way.


OK. I will accept these 1st 6 players. Fraust, Vagrant Poet, Nightflier, Poor Wandering One, Scranford and Exoow - your all in. Please check out my thread 'AJs Dads Ptolus Players Resources', over on the discussion page which will contain background for players. This will be just for back ground. Discussions and the like will be on 'AJs Dads Ptolus Discussion'.

As some of you are new to this, we will take it easy and try and help each other I hope:).

If you can decide amongst yourselves what classes you would like to play...Remember, 2 fighter types, 1 cleric, 1 wizard , 1 rogue and 1 other.

The Cleric spot still hasnt been claimed yet VP. Still interested.

The main religion is as follows.

Spoiler:
In Ptolus, there is one religion and there are many.
While the Church of Lothian remains the official religion of the Empire, tied closely to every aspect of Imperial government, many other far smaller and less popular religions exist as well. These faiths worship gods like the chaotic good Ahaar, Lord of the Air, a minor elemental sky god; the chaotic neutral Fifty-Three Gods of Chance, deities of chaos and randomness; Gaen, Goddess of Light, a
popular lawful good deity; and the lawful neutral Teun, Mother of All Machines, goddess of technology.
And these are just examples.


I am inviting more applicants for this game as I still require a couple more players.

I'd love a spot Mr. Dad.

Sadly, I won't be able to put up a character until next week. I'm hosting 75+ Pathfinder players at Kublacon this weekend and won't have a free brain cell until Wednesday.

I'm happy to fill in any role if I can get you a character next week. I've played a small part of Ptolus (a Leonin (?) cleric..up to lvl 2) several years ago and would happily explore more of the city.

Thanks.

id be willing to give it a go... this a rouge from a year or so ago from a campagin that never started would be only 2 or 3 PBP but ive play at least a 1/2 of dozen or campagin... could post most days


I'd love to try this. I read the Ptolus books a long time ago, but I have never actually played in the setting.

Are there any specific party spots unfilled, if so which?

Be glad to take you both. We need a cleric, a rogue and maybe 'another'

Moulini, the character looks fine, just needs updating to Ptolus background.

Have a look at AJs Dads Ptolus discussion and download the free Ptolus players guide fromwww.ptolus.com

Will do when I get home tonight


Sorry, I have to bow out of this. Have a fun game!

Sovereign Court

I have a cleric I'd love to try out, I know nothing of Ptolus, but this guy was built using Pathfinder core rules, although I did use 15 point buy, if you look at his stats I don't think you can say that I used point buy to min/max :)

Dark Archive

all done tell me what you think....


I would like to play PF game on a forum. I have all the core rule books, but no one around me with the time to play actual table sessions.

Is there a space still available? I can play any character, but magic user characters are my favourite. Definitely can post every day.

The Exchange

Mr. Dad--

I am digging myself out of the mountain that was Kublacon and return to more fun matters...like this.

What classes are still needed? I have a few concepts brewing and should have something up tomorrow.

-Pain


At the moment on the Discussion thread for this game (AJs Dads Ptolus Discussion Thread) we have a Ranger, a sorcerer and a fighter.


Moulini and Lastknight - I would like to welcome you both. Hop on over to the discussion thread.

We now have a Ranger, a sorcerer, a cleric, a rogue and a fighter.

Darkone, would you be willing to play a wizard?

Pain - look forward to seeing your character.

I would be willing to take one more character as well. Idealy, a paladin. Would this be suitable for you Saint Caleth?

Sure I can do a wizard. I have all the core PF source books, and the free downloads for PF. Should I head over to your discussion thread, or first present a wizard character for you to review.

Edit: what online die rolling site will you be using?

This forum has tags for die rolls. Head over to the discussion thread to see how we've rolled our character stats.


Sure, I have a few ideas for a paladin knocking around. I'd have to find my copy of the setting and read it to see which ones as appropriate though. Would APG or UM material be allowed?


Hey AJ, if you have room for another character, let me know. I wouldn't mind playing a paladin, of possibly a monk.

However, I do not own these specific books.

Hi Ganny. A monk would be useful....
