Oriental Adventure Recruitment

[Daniel Stewart]

Again...just testing the system...see who is interested..

[psychicmachinery]

I might be interested. Starting level? Point buy? Allowed races?

[Morrin]

Very interested as well!

[A.P.P.L.E.]

3.5 or Pathfinder? I'm interested regardless of system, but I need to know whether the classes from Oriental Adventures are allowed or whether I should take Pathfinder classes. I do own Oriental Adventures, so I have the necessary rules at my disposal.

[Daniel Stewart]

I am looking to use the Pathfinder classes an, once I get and read the Dragon Empire book, will add from that as well. Played lots of 2nd and 3rd ed. oriental adventures, so looking to capture some of that with the new game....but it might not start until the new year.... more to come ;-)

[Deiros]

I love rokugan setting, well at least the fluff behind it, I'm interested ^^ scorpion clan xD lol well glad someone is finally attempting something like this ^^

[Isuru]

Mark me down as interested.

[AdamWarnock]

color me interested.

[Monkeygod]

Also interested,

Will there be any conversion of OA material or is it all going to be straight Pathfinder??

[Daniel Stewart]

It depends on what they have for this new setting. As I said I want to take a look at the Jade Empire stuff and then see what I want....but I will be adding Taint to the background...it will be a homebrew world..

[Xzaral]

Also interested.

[A.P.P.L.E.]

I am so interested.

[Mr. Swagger]

Me too. I am bidding for another online game also. If I don't make the cut there I will take this one. If this one gets me first I will cut myself out of the other one.
Are you waiting for the PF Oriental book or are we using the 3.5 setting(s)?

[flykiller]

Interested if it's PF and I get to play a samurai or a ninja (as they're pretty much outlawed elsewhere).

Perfect setting for those characters and the "taint" mechanic from rokugan is nice but consider the use void also? just a suggestion.

[Sgmendez]

I am interested. I never got to play Oriental Adventures in the 3e days but the Asian themed stuff for Pathfinder I like very much.

If you decide to use Pathfinder Oriental stuff, does that include the races as well as the archetypes?

[Daniel Stewart]

I am looking to use the Pathfinder game and the various classes (oriental) that they have. Once I get the Dragon Kingdom book, I will have more information on races and such. As I said...this might not be until the New Year, so I will try and keep it open for all....
Deiros: Was never a big fan of the Void in 3E, so probably will not add it...and the Taint is a bit different in this game...I think you will enjoy it!
I will most likely look for a party of 6, as anymore gets to be very difficult to run...but I will give everyone fair warning when i am ready to take applications!! I must say, from the response I have already, I am looking forward to playing this game as well..lol

[Deiros]

Daniel your avatar looks like Nicholas Cage by the way...

[Daniel Stewart]

Yeah...it is kinda creepy lol..and looks nothing like me..heheh

[Sgmendez]

And just to mention. If I don't make it into this game, or maybe even if I do, I think I might run an Dragon Empires game with a more SteamFu setting. A mix of Oriental and Steampunk, guns and samurai, kitsune and clockwork. Doesn't it just sound awesome.

[Deiros]

yes it does sgmendez xD btw I forgot if you got a copy of my FFT setting?

[A.P.P.L.E.]

I will play it.

[Daniel Stewart]

I will be putting up some background information in the campaign area to give people a feel of what the world is like. Again when I get the new Dragon Empire book I will update a lot of the information, but hopefully you will get a feel for the land and its people.

Yes, I did get it. I am working my way through it between work and school. Now that winter break is here I will have a little extra time so I should be able to finish it a little faster. Looks good so far.

Glad there is at least some interest in it. We will see what happens.

And to not derail this thread I will post something relevant. I am thinking of playing a:

Vanara Alchemist (Chirurgeon, Internal Alchemist, Vivisectionist)
Kitsune Sorcerer (Fey Bloodline)
Nagaji Oracle (Deaf Curse, Metal Mystery)
Human Samurai (Order of the Dragon)
Tengu Ninja (Vow of Truth, Vow of Silence)

[caffeine_addict]

I'm interested in this, something a bit different to the norm.

Oh. Em. Gee.

I would so totally play the bejeebus out of that.

SteamFu, Best. Idea. Ever.

[Daniel Stewart]

Perhaps an oriental version of Iron Kingdom!!!

[A CR20 Seagull]

Gearman Samurai. I'll give you a moment for the awesome to sink in.

[A.P.P.L.E.]

I don't know how you feel about homebrew content, so I apologize if I overstep my bounds as a potential player, but I have made a Pathfinder Wu Jen conversion and posted it here. It could fit this campaign well if you choose to allow it.

I would play this in a heartbeat.

[Deiros]

That is a really neat thing to play!! STEAM-FU!!

But I wish someone would GM a L5R games with it's system.

[Sgmendez]

Wow, had no idea the interest in a game like that. I may just have to run one regardless.

[Sgmendez]

And I give anyone wish interest in here priority

[A.P.P.L.E.]

Sgmendez wrote:

YES!

Are you willing to allow the Wu Jen conversion I posted?

[Sgmendez]

Here is the official recruitment thread.

[Daniel Stewart]

Hey what gives!! Scamming people off my game..HAHAH..just kidding!! It sounds like an awesome game...and while I still would like to run a more traditional OA, I would be interested in a Steam version as well....

[Sgmendez]

Yeah, sorry. I didn't intend to do this. If it makes you feel any better I am still interested in your game, as I am sure a lot of the others are as well.

[Daniel Stewart]

HEHE...not a problem!! Was just kidding with you...and your idea does sound interesting!!

[Daniel Stewart]

OK after a bit of a leave, I am back again and now looking to take character recruitment for this game. Sorry for the wait, but life unfortunately gets in the way of fun sometimes. Looking for 6 players, and take a look at the campaign info tab for more information on character development. I will have more background to the world up soon, I hope, along with a local map of the players starting area. Hope this interests some of you and look forward to seeing the submissions.

[robertness]

Using Pathfinder rules? If so, what races, classes, etc. are you looking for or not looking for?

[Daniel Stewart]

yes using pathfinder; for races i want to use those presented in the Dragon Empire Primer, not including the Samsaren or Wayang. But I will add the Ratpeople and Vanara (so basically most of the 3e oriental adventures races)

Dotting to show interest. Though no clear character comes to mind.

Much cheers to you and yours.
