Serpent's Skull group looking for GM

[F. Castor]

Good day all.

Well, as the title says, we are an already established group of players in need of a new GM due to our previous one having to bow out owing to personal reasons.

You know the type, a good ol' reliable GM with the usual PbP requirements I see in almost all reqruitment threads (one post per day sort of thing, weekends optional, and ready and willing to DMPC a character if his/her player has not responded within a suitable amount of time, say 24 to 48 hours). :-)

The Story So Far

Spoiler:

Our intrepid adventurers-turned-castaways, consisting of both crew and passengers of the Jenivere, have found themselves on Smuggler's Shiv. After establishing a camp and doing a bit of exploration, managing to meet and join forces with a man that had already been on the island for a few weeks before them, are now on their way to deal a blow against a settlement of cannibals seemingly led by a witch with the power to raise the dead.

Dramatis Personae
Brynmor Drakh, N male human fighter 3
Isandril Velahrn, CG male elf fighter 2/ranger 1 (if noone has any objections, will be retconned to ranger 3 by the time we restart, seeing as how there will be next to no changes where fluff and crunch are concerned by such a retcon, not to mention it will get rid of a 3.5 remnant the character has; plus, he has been used as a ranger from the very beginning, anyway)
Jonagher Witt, CG male half-elf rogue 3
Origen Leanthris, LG male human sorcerer 3
Torden Ironcask, NG male dwarf bard 3

Merely a bump. So... bump. :-)

Well I do have the notion to get something else started and an already ready group could prove an easy respite.

You seem to have a lot of campaign covered over at the IC thread. It would take me the weekend to see what you have done/not done so far in the adventure.

But I am game if you are.

[Deevor]

If lost decides not to, then I'll take a look and see wheher I would take it up.

[F. Castor]

I suppose a little more information would be helpful for the two gents who have already shown interest, as well as any who might appear from now on.

Adventure Progress

Spoiler:

-Shipwrecked at Smuggler's Shiv. Explored the ruined Jenivere finding clues supporting that foul play was involved in the event. Also managed to prevent a group of cannibals from kidnapping Bran, a former PC.
-Established a camp. Managed to become friendly with the castaway NPCs and get several 'sidequests' from them, as well as get them to help with the defense and support of the camp.
-Explored the shipwreck of a ship called the Tattooed Lady.
-Explored a bit of the island, seeing flying lizards and other creatures or at least tracks of them. Found an abandoned settlement with a sort of plant/spore/fungus zombie in it. Also managed to gather the berries of the viper nettle sought by Aerys Mavato, although we have not yet returned to the camp to give them to her.
-Found the cannibals' camp/settlement and managed to set fire to a few of the huts, also killing some of the cannibals and a large lizard in the process.
-Ran into and joined forces with a human fighter named Brynmor, who had shipwrecked on the island a few weeks earlier. Learnt a few things about the cannibals by him, such as that they are of Chelaxian stock, as well as that they seem to either be led or pay tribute or some such to a witch with the power to animate the dead.
-Currently en route to try our hand at another attack at the cannibals' village.

The above is a very abbreviated version of what has happened so far.

Thanks for the summary, F. Castor. I'm Origen's player, and I'm very glad to see your interest! Please take a look at the PbP thread to get a feel for the game's flavor so far.

Origen, Jonagher (Neil Spicer), and Torden (Curn_Bounder) entered the Serpent's Skull game from a prequel PbP that used a PFS adventure, Mists of Mwangi. Here's a summary:

Summary of Mists of Mwangi Adventure [SOME MoM SPOILERS]

Spoiler:

Origen, Torden, Jonagher, Bran (ex-PC NG fighter), and Frik (ex-PC CG cleric) volunteered to check out mysterious, mind-affecting mists coming from the Blakros Museum in Absalom.

The party investigates, saving several museum workers and the curator, Nigel Blakros, from the Tik Taan, vile little wooden servitors of the ape-demon Anghazan. The idols are smashed into kindling.

Pleased with the party's performance, Venture-Captain Hestram offers them a commission on behalf of the Pathfinder Society: to find a missing Pathfinder expedition lost in search of the Azlanti ruin Saventh-Yhi. All party members accept membership (or reinstatement) in the Society.

After extensive research, careful preparations, and a fight with a carnivorous plant escaping from a menagerie, the party sails off to Sargava. During the several-month trip, Torden, Jonagher, and Origen learn Polyglot.

The party transfers to the Jenivere at Magnimar . . . .

If you read the current Pbp thread and want more, the whole thing is at the Mists of Mwangi thread.

Seven sentence to summon up a year long 900+ post of gaming. Abbreviated Ummm... yeah, :P

I would like a chance to DM this for all of you. After reading the module it is a very well written and a fun looking game.

If you give me the next two days I will have the IC thread looked over and some possible questions for everyone.

Till then let me know if you'll have me - if so I'll post over in the OOC to get a double check of everyone still interested in playing.

ROTFLMAO :P

[Deevor]

Good Luck Lost and the players, looks like you found a very willing GM.

[Lost Gamer]

Thanks Deevor, Good Luck to you and your games as well.

[Eric Zylstra]

Thanks to you both for your consideration.

Deevor, good luck with your other games.

Lost Hero, I'm looking forward to playing with you. We're still waiting to hear from some of the other players, but why don't you post something in the OOC thread?
