Hollow’s Last Hope

Will be right here on Paizo,

Recruitment :

Wanted an old fashioned team of four PC’s to take on the “short term” PBP module Hollow’s Last Hope!

Spoiler:
Not saying I will run anything beyond Hollow's Last Hope, not saying I won't either!

I am looking for a “traditional team”* in the sense of roles, though APG and UM are both fine.
*tank, healer, skill monkey, arcanist

22 point buy, no score under 10!

2 traits, no rich parents!

Each person submitting a full character will vote for the composition of the party….

So each submission is looked over by every applicant and then at the end of the week…..

Everyone who submits a full character can vote for not only themselves, but also is required to vote for the rest of the party.

Recruitment will last from today and run a full week. At the end of recruitment, everyone will move over to the OOC thread.

Each full character will post once, the character name and avatar being correct and stating your role in the party.

After all the potential PC’s are in the “line-up” you can then cast your votes for whom you want in the party…..(one post listing your picks for the four PCs to be in the game)

I will of course veto things as they appear in the recruitment thread!

When you post here please tell what role you really want!

Any takers?

Any questions?

I'd like to submit Faunra Variel, I need to change some of the background and her stats(was a 20 point buy) but other than that she's done. She's a bard so she can either be the arcanist or the skill monkey.

I should mention I am currently running this but don't worry I won't meta-game and I'm sure you going to make it very different.

What's the trait list you're using? Just APG, or are other sources allowed?

Just about any trait run some by me!

I thought about using the list PFS (pathfinder society) uses, that is likely a good start!

What's your opinion of Heirloom Weapon?

Allowable, could be better.....

Starting gold 175! I knew I forgot something!

Humm as this is a short PBp , I have been wanting to try out word of power with a sorcerer. Would you allow that?

Let's give it a try, it seems the biggest threat is that it might slow-down RL game play, but should work fine in PBP format.

Spoiler:

Warning!
Words of power spellcasting is a complicated subsystem that, in the hands of players suffering from bouts of analysis paralysis, may slow down game play. But in the right hands, the system creates a fun, flexible play experience for fans of free-form spellcasting that works either alone or with standard Pathfinder spellcasters.

I am in for trying this, even though it is just a short module.
I am thinking about either a Cleric, or a Tower Shield Fighter.

Xzarf here.
Added the bare bones of a Tower Shield Fighter. Stats on the profile page.

I've been thinking of trying out an inquisitor of some sort. He sees himself as a paladin, but his methods are not exactly lawful good ;)

I'll post it up during the week

** spoiler omitted **

Cool. I'll get something up soon then

You have a full week to really get a character in for voting....

What level will this get us to? I may throw in my hat with this character. He was originally for a rise of the runelords game, but he did not make it, so I can modify him. I can tank while my eidolon can be a skill monkey or rather skill drake as the case may be.

BTW, Hi Faunra!

Should get to level 2 by the end of the module.

I also have the next two in the set and have my eye on the third one.....

No promises to keep going though.

Welcome aboard

Thank you. Me and Copperscale are definitely interested. I hope you run the whole series.

Awesome I do like the "flank buddy" summoner!

Spoiler:

I made a similar summoner, gave the Eidolon precise strike as his first feat....

Well the eidolon isn't going to be a super damage dealer or anything. The eidolon has a mostly out of combat evolutions. I love Skilled. :)

Currenlty playing a tiefling summoner with a biped demon eidolon and loving it. While his full attacks are nice, he's a great flanker and his perception skill is extremely handy (skilled rocks). As you level, the summoners battlefield control spells really do make a difference. Create pit matched with summoning anything that has a good cmb for bull rush really is fun, expecially if u grease the sloped edges around the pits!

Dwarven cleric of Torag with Earth and Inevitable as his domains.

Is there any backstory here we can know, a town we should be in when this starts, so that we can make a back story. Are we in desert, forest, jungle, arctic climate?

Falcon's Hollow is a small lumber based community Townon a river and beside a forest.

It is also a known haven for those escaping from a past, the rulers are part of the lumber consortium and mostly just make sure the lumber business is profitable.

Town

The local area

What nation is it in? Andoran?

Well, if it helps the recruitment, Rohan/Copperscale both know Faunra from Sandpoint. So that could help with why we would be in Falcon's Hollow.

I was thinking as a town in Andoran

OR

in the Chelaxian heartlands near the capital Egorian.....

Likely #1 over #2

Either works, I am going for the Bastard son of a Chelaxian noble.

I'd like to tank, either as a straight (with-a-twist) Fighter or a Paladin.

I like the interest

I look forward to the final surprise of who the party is composed of.

Keep in mind that filling a role is not dictating a class!

We do not post finished pc here correct?

As for Role, Hanathan will be a face man, a talker, the diplomatic sort. His skills and spells are build more around that kind of think then brute force.

He would much rather, Bluff, flatter, talk or Intimidate his way out of a fight then have to fight.

Also GOld? We rolling? Max Hp at level 1?

You can finish a character here if you wish.

Gold is 175.....

Will try to keep things organized so that everyone will know who they can vote for in the OOC thread next week.

Yes always max hit points at level 1!

A quick question: I use Hero Labs to generate characters but I've never generated an animal companion before. Is it correct that I get 2HD of health for my horse? If so, how do you want them generated?

If you are talking about a druid the animal companion should generate fairly straight forwards....

Spoiler:

Horse

Starting Statistics: Size Large; Speed 50 ft.; AC +4 natural armor; Attack bite (1d4), 2 hooves* (1d6); Ability Scores Str 16, Dex 13, Con 15, Int 2, Wis 12, Cha 6; Special Qualities low-light vision, scent.

* This is a secondary natural attack, see Combat for more information on how secondary attacks work.

4th-Level Advancement: Ability Scores Str +2, Con +2; Special Qualities combat trained.

and advance by levels as you do

Spoiler:

see Table: Animal Companion Base Statistics

I think He wanted to know How you wanted HP's for His horse done. Average, Rolled or Max.

Max hp works for horses as well, based on where you get the horse from.

Ya know that would be 20 Hp right?

Yeah now everyone will want one......

Well Normally they use Average :)

There stats and stat block up to date though I still have about 93 gold to spend...might update her armor later.

Presenting Ser Demlan Hemlyth, Cavalier and follower of Andoletta. Plan to play him as pure Cavalier, dictating the flow of battle by taking out the biggest enemy in the melee whilst protecting his compatriots.

Tanks!

No worries I max BBEGs hp also.

Am I correct in the understanding the no stats below 10 is after racial adjustment?

That would be the preference!

that is what the extra 2 points of the 20 point buy is for! ;)

May I present Norric Kelmmek, Dwarven armored melee fighter. Enjoys a good time but when blades are bared he gets quite serious, eager to pit himself against a challenger.

Background wise I imagine him having been recruited/hired to escort either a scholar heading to investigate the monastery(if that is known of) or a merchant. Either is in or heading to Falcon's Hollow with his ward.

Please let me know if need anything built on or changed.

p.s. I equipped him with an armored kilt. Ok? or should I remove it.

Please do not remove the kilt!

But it gets so hot underneath all this armor! You been outside lately? It's like we're in a boiler!

Ok Hanathan is done, save his gear and flushing out his Backstory.

No please remove it...I've been dying for new material for a song and I'm sure people would love to hear about the dwarf who wasn't just dwarfed in height...if you get what I mean.

If only we had a bard with bagpipes....... ;)

So I have had a change of heart on the fighter and am submitting a Cleric of Gorum instead. Still need to flesh the character out a bit and do a backstory but the majority of it is up.

Sounds like something Auk would be interested in.

Good to see you putting Auk to use there Mund.

I have a question for our crazy DM: When does the voting start?
