Please, dot and let us organize ourselves.
About me;
-First time GMing PBP, and less than ten sesions in F2F
-English is not my first languaje, if you´re going to use slang or bad english be sure I can understand it (a little translation in discussion or spoilered will be great)
-I´ll make the initiative checks for combat.
-Feel free to make suggestions to improve the game
-Have all your character sheet copied in paizo, I can´t reliable check other webs.
-I can only be sure to make 1 post from monday to friday(GMT+1). I´ll usually can make more,´but not allways.
I plan to start this at 2nd of March, because this saturday I GM a scenario and I won´t been able to post.
And that´s all I think.

Thanks for the invite Oikiv.
+1 to what Evan Whitefield said on helping a new GM out. We've started somewhere too after all ;)
I'm applying with a lvl 2 happy little gnome bard.
I've tried using methods i liked from other GMs whose games i play in.
You get a good feel at what would work for you and then use it or tweak it.

Thanks for the invite, Oykiv. (Kludde here)
I'm tempted to bring my over-the-top barbarian (who has to be updated to level 2), but I can switch it out to something else low-level. It's a good moment for me to clean out some of my character profiles.
So I understand that you've been GMing Face-to-face games, but have never GMed a PbP game. Do you need any help with the techno bits? Or anything else? I usually set up something like this up, so people can add their own initiative (anyway, I think you've seen it).
Can I ask what your native language is?

Oykiv |

Well, like you want to play with a Sylph and tiefling, we will play non core. Level 2 is okey if you haven´t played the confirmation with a level 2 before.
Thanks for your help to all. I´d wait to play some PBP games to familiarize with it, so I see how you GM and I´m going to unashamely copy as much as I can. And I toyed with google docs to see how you draw the maps (wich I think is a wonderful tool for pbp games. Maybe I need help later to send you the chronicles, but we will see.
Chyrone guess is correct, I´m spanish.
How did you came to your guests? Have you dig my posts or have any other method?
And going again to the play, I have 2 GMs pending to aswer, and I´g going to invite some f2f GMs I know. If there´s no answer tomorrow, I´ll ask for recruits in the Flaxseed Lodge.

Oh, you're right about that rule. I've played the confirmation before, and I'd have to check what level I was. Perhaps it's better to err on the side of caution and to create something new (that would feel better anyway, for a confirmation). I'll cook up something :-)

I am honored you invited me in this endeavor. I have a brand new lvl 1 non core for this if there is still room.

I'm actually thinking a Mysterious Avenger Swashbuckler would be fun. Not getting finesse until 2nd is kind of a pain but I could start off a standard Swashbuckler and then retain when I got to 2nd level.
A whip magus would be fun too but I already have a Magus PFS character and I'm not a big fan of using the same class more than once (not counting dips).

*Looks around, aquires a few beads from the gnome and tosses them out the door, her following them.*
"Erm, the cheerful gnome seems to be distracted. Don't worry, i'll be doing her job then. Locke Arkham at your service. Stuff needs blowing up, i'm your agent."

Hey there quinn...
What? What happened to Fruno?

![]() |

Hey Kludde - Endless striaght up killed Frunobulax with an invisible Magus that critted with a real nasty stab or shocking grasp or something (I never played a magus and I don't quite remember the exact attack and I'm too lazy right now to look it up, haha). Poor guy went from full health to well below negative CON in one shot.
I actually just made Quinn for a Core game, but I mistakenly registered him as a standard PFS character.
Lyoto - characters can only be in one Pathfinder Society PbP at a time.

If there is room, I would like to join. I started this once, but GM killed it prematurely... Can't recall too much about the start though.

Aaah. THAT scenario. Funny though, I remember Endlessforms introducing Frunobulax, saying he's never seen a character with worse luck. Being killed with a one-shot crit kind of lives up to that expectation.

So what's aboard the raft:
Tetchy: Barbarian
Masaru: Samurai
Quinn: Paladin
Locke: Alchemist
Zakin: Kensai Magus
Whitefield: ??
Pretty up-close specced, plenty of flanking options.

GM opinions:
-How do you handle diseases?
I haven´t found the rule to identify one without magic, what I think a heal check should be useful.
-How do you decide when to push forward?
You know, like when you were talking with the deaf oracle with some of you just waiting.
-Have you created an alias for GMing? If yes, why?
Thanks in advance.

My undiluted opinions (which are just that: opinions. YMMV)
Diseases: not sure what the question is. Do you mean how to handle your PC identifying a disease? That would be the disease save DC as a Heal check (based on precedents I found in scenarios). Treating? Same check, success gives a +2 bonus on the save. I'm personally quite prone to forgetting a character got infected in the first place. Lucky players.
Push forward: The rule of thumb is: whenever reasonable. I think I'm on the pushy end of the spectrum, though. A good guideline is the 'rule of two'. When at least two characters mention moving on, move on. You can always fill in the blanks retro-actively.
Alias for GMing: Yes. For no good reason, really.

Diseases:
In PFS, if the adventure lasts but one day and it's a non lethal one that can be overcome easily by passing your checks i reckon i don't bother, save for describing how they feel. Luckily i haven't had to yet. If they have it by the end of the scenario and it's one that is highly lethal i imagine 2 things.
1) Maybe pay the cost of getting it removed if they fail their following crucial checks.
2)*gurk*...RIP? Search pallid plague on this.
Pushing forward:
What Kludde said. In combat: i check the boards couple times a day, if in 24 hours someone hasn't posted i bot that character for that round.
GM alias:
Yes, erm...just because we can i guess.

For easyness. All the group is going to reach Janira at the same time. And I will take in account some had runned to help her.
I don´t want the group to go out in two waves because, due to the escenario, it will be worst to Janira than if you haven´t tried to go quickly to her. But you had saved some time, wich could be useful depending on your next actions.

I´d picked the minotaur stats from the pdf,and I think it´s already counted.
I can´t check the pdf right now, but I checked the prd and a normal minotaur has a +9 to hit, so I think it´s right.
EDIT:I answered this, before seeing how the poor minotaur has been beaten, so it really don´t matters.
Please, put your information more o less this way:
Name
Character name
PFS character number
Day job check
E-mail to send the chronicle (send it in private if you prefer it)
Also, I´m in the beach for holidays, so I can´t send the chronicles before tuesday.
Thanks to all for a great game. If any had any suggestion, it will be well received.
