Well, since we have lost two of our players to the ravages of real life I am reopening recruitment for my ongoing campaign, an alternate take at Kingmaker. I'm looking for players interested in a roleplay heavy game, character driven campaign with lots of intraparty interaction and some conflict. Divine casters will have and edge for getting in but selection will depend mostly on background and personality.
The character creation rules are the following:
- Races All core classes and those from bestiaries I and II. That said I may have some bias towards core races, but if you have a great idea for a tiefling or a ifrit I'd love to see it.
- Classes All classes and archetypes from the Core Rulebook, APG and UM. UC classes and archetypes are game as long as they are in the d20pfsrd.
- Alignments All alignments are allowed, once more I have some bias towards good or neutral, but any interesting evil character will be considered.
- Feats All Core Rulebook, APG and UM feats are good. UC and other sources depend on being on d20pfsrd and GM approval.
- Traits Characters should choose two traits.
- Abilities 20 point buy, no ability beyond 18 none below 9 before racial modifiers
- Starting gold Standard starting gold
I have to warn that real life is taking its toll on my posting rate too, so although I try to post several times a day I may be unable to do it sometimes. Oh and weekends I barely post at all.

There will be at least one character selected, may be two depending on submissions. I'm not giving a deadline yet.
Sumbitting a character that didn't make into another Kingmaker campaign. It meet all of you requirements I believe. I can provide a decent post rate. At which point of the Campaign are you in?

I am usually able to provide a fairly decent post rate, therefore would like to submit a character. Just out of interest, what is the current party makeup?
Current party make up is
Half ogre Barbarian
Half Elf Bard
Half Elf Cavalier (Some sort of beast rider)
Human Gunslinger
Human Sorcerer
Basically, we're set on the martial and arcane fronts and well, not so recently lost our cleric and druid. Not saying that we can't do it without a cleric, but a bards spell per day is not enough to devote all of them to Cure Light Wounds, and we aren't rolling in dough at level 1 to buy/craft a wand.
As the campaign is alternative (Set in Pitax, Irovetti is our Patron) we just got to the point where we would have talked to Oleg and rescued him from the bandits, only we were set on and we're now going to be going to interview one of four bandit lords we have been tasked to "dispose" of.
Cyean is not some sort of beast rider he is a beast rider. Just right now his choice on mounts are very limited. Other wise pretty much what Hu5tru said.
Maybe if Cyean were more friendly, your party bard could intervene on your behalf to summon up a giant wasp :P
*chuckles*
It's not actually a Kingmaker campaign, although it takes place in a nearby area and we will use the Kingdom Building rules later on.
The campagn takes place in the area Southwest of Pitax, in the River Kingdoms, the party is oficially financed by Irovetti but there are doubts that he is the tru instigator of this campaign to clean the area of banditry. You can take a look at the Gameplay thread to get a better idea.
@Gunther Danthermann we have both a cavalier and a gunslinger so a musketeer will find people with things in common. As I've said this is not an standard Kingmaker campaign. Are you interested anyway?
@Jestem. As Hu5tru posted the group is well served in both martial and arcane front but of course any character will get consideration, it's the good things with homebrew campaigns, you can easily adapt to the party's strengths or weaknesses
I would offer to play as an oracle. As I read on the previous recruitment drive, interest wasn't lacking. I could post once a day, due to the facts of RL.
We're all at first level.
Cool beans. I'm running a sorc/druid i'll be taking MT elsewhere, so I'm passingly familiar with them. For all else I'll defer to treatmonk.
Looks like I'm a bit too late to grab a spot here. It looked interesting.
actually umbral, we had 7 people, and my bard is geared to be pure social and support, uses a shortbow in combat as a backup, so apply away.
Kristev, looks okay to me.
Oh, alrighty. I might give it a go.
Would a witch be useful? Also, I'm interested in trying the winter witch from Inner Sea Magic, if that would be allowable.
I say thumbs up to any concept that allows me to play mine to the hilt. Another full arcane to assist the Sorc would be cool.
I'm hashing out something of a concept in my head that might be suitable as an exotic yet relevant character with a reason to be seeking claim over the lands alongside fellow adventurers. It's just an outline for now:
A noble son of Lebeda, filled with tales of distant lands thanks to an upbringing in a merchant house, found himself with a touch of wanderlust upon coming of age. He set out west, seeking distant treasures and excitement. Finally, the young Brevoy noble came to Irrisen, whereupon his dashing charm and wit caught the attention of one of Baba Yaga's daughters. She took him as a husband (his willingness in the matter is uncertain).
Their daughter was raised in the traditional ways of the white witches, instilled with the knowledge that one day she might be chosen to rule. Her father told many stories of Brevoy and the lands between. Once she was of suitable age and had completed her training as a witch, the young heiress traced her father's footsteps back to his place of origin, hoping to find a land to inherit or if necessary, seize by guile and magic (as is only proper for a white witch of Irrisen).
Other points:
I noticed the current characters have three traits. The recruitment details state two traits for new characters. Which is correct?
If I remember correctly it was three traits one of which had to be from kingmaker.
Yes, I thought that might be the case but some of the players have three traits from non-Kingmaker sources.
Also! Do we use any means of instant communication? I have AIM, if that is suitable. Should I share my email address with you?
Damned forums and their lack of private messages.
uh yeah, I came up with Pitax specific traits modeled after the kingmaker ones in the original recruitment thread. Not everyone took them, though.
as for instant messaging, no, we don't actually. PMs would be helpful sometimes. I read somewhere that the good folks at paizo had it on a list of things to do.
Oh, okay. So this is all taking place in the River Kingdoms instead of Brevoy? I suppose that changes things a little, but not so much that I need to change my character idea very much.
DM_Keddah, email me. I'd like to discuss a few things.
umbralreaver (at) gmail (dot) com
Yeah, the River Kingdoms, near/around Pitax at the moment.
Beginning work on a character. Am thinking of taking 'Oracle' as class.
Thoughts? Comments?
Much cheers to you and yours.
Welcome to the Charisma train!
I'm sorry for not answering but I barely have anytime on weekends. You can take Hu5tru word for most things anyway so thanks to her for doing this :) I will go over your submissions in the next hours and answer as soon as possible. Thanks for your patience!
Umbral Reaver, you can email me at dm (dot) keddah (at) gmail (dot) com
*Bows* Real Life takes its tole on us all.
If need be I can build the witch with healing ability but I would prefer not to spend hexes on it. My plan is something of a control/evoker (and yes, I know evocation sucks) with a very prominent cold theme. If permissible, that also involves theming non-cold spells as icy (such as hold person being a grip of ice). Don't worry. I'm not going to try to squeeze additional effects out of the theme.
I always loved the ice spellcasters. Any way whatever to me it is your character, play what you want to play.

Sarn-nar has always known responsibility. When your parents are dead and the only thing your siblings have left to hold onto is you; you find work. When the smith leaves you to watch the forge at night; you stay alert. But there is more to life than just responsibility, there is also joy. And for Sarn-nar, that joy is found in the forge, where earth and flame join to make wonders. That joy lead him to Brigh.
Deiros, if I'm not wrong you applied to a Forgotten Realms campaign, The Expendables that due to real life I wasn't able to get going in the end. This one has been running for a bit longer, and although it has also suffered the consequences of my foolish efforts to combine my roleplaying hobby and my real life it is still going. You can find the original recruitment, discussion and in character threads in the opening post if you're interested.
Sorry for the delays. Real life is currently punching me in the face. I'll get the character done within the next couple of days.

Well I will read to get a feeling on the current cast to see what kind of roleplay or kind of adventuring group it is to try and think of something to get going.
You are right it was the Forgotten Realms one my apologies ^^
Will probably attempt a summoner but first check the current cast to see what there is and what I would be comfortable playing that helps cover any "weakness" or role that might be needed.
Thank you for allowing me to apply ^^ hope I get selected if not I will probably follow it up do to interest.
Edit: Will work on something when I get home I don't have access to stuff except from the nice prd but I usually only do short post not character building and background takes times for me ^^
Hi! I'm new to these boards but I've played my fair share of PbP and Pathfinder. I'd like to submit a Human Oracle of Life, Salandra has pure life energy flowing through her veins but she isn't just a healer, she tries to be nice but she has a mean personality when angry. She will probably take the tongues curse.
I will submit the full stats and background ASAP.
I don't have time to do a full work up at the moment, but I rather fancy playing a Cleric of Abadar but with the Divine Strategist archetype.
I'll work up the character later today.

So I came up with a wierd concept of a Human/Aasimar Summoner, that thinks he does "divine magic" with an angel eidolon and was looking at the old bunch of angels from 3.5 that I might be able to convert and fit in with their respective CR of course and if you allow it just to theme the character.
My only problem is I don't want to go the giant/huge thing is there something else you have like a homebrew thing to compensate like say something Like Elite +2 to all attributes and need to be lvl 6 since it is still fair compared to what you get form being large I get a tiny general boost, sort of like half the Advanced creature template that could later when I apply for huge it would be the full fledged template raising it to+4 to all attributes just wishful thinking of me of course.
This is Umbral Reaver's character.
I've put together most of the character sheet. The formatting is somewhat off as I did it in notepad, but it should all be there. I haven't done equipment yet.
Background and description will be added when I am feeling better. Things aren't going so well at the moment IRL. The general gist of the character is stated in my posts above.
As a note of importance, I currently have the character listed as LE. This may be inappropriate and it is subject to change if necessary. This is not a stupid or pointless evil, however. It's there to reflect a calculating and cold disdain for lessers and those persons and creatures considered to be impeding progress. She will not go out of her way to harm people or screw with them. However, she won't be likely to care if people get themselves hurt unless caring (or appearing to care) would serve her purposes. The latter is likely to be the case fairly often.
As said, it can be changed if it's a problem.
It's very quiet in here. Where is everyone?
