Canada, ONT, Toronto - Pathfinder

[Artemis_Dreamer]

Hi, all.

I'm in a bit of a "looking for group" sort of situation.

I'm seeking to join a group of players located in the GTA, who don't mind having a younger (18-year-old) female player. Also, a group that doesn't loathe newbies, or "punish them severely".

Any type of Pathfinder game would be great, really - homebrew, published adventure, ect. I really don't mind.

I do have D&D 3.5 experience, but I'm not completely confident with the Pathfinder system yet. I have a decent level of maturity, can provide all my own books and dice, and am willing to bring snacks.

Um, just one little thing - please don't suggest the local Pathfinder Society groups. I gave that a shot, and suffice to say, it just didn't work out.

Please take the time to consider my request.

Thanks,
Dreamer

Hey, I'm in a similar boat. I've been looking for a game but haven't found anything in Toronto yet. I'll keep you in mind if I ever come across anything, but in the meanwhile I would suggest you check meetup.com. It has a couple of table top game groups (Toronto TAG) and I think even one specifically for females only(Geek Girls in Toronto). Keep an eye out there, who knows, it might be a bit easier to find something locally. Good luck.

I guess that makes 3 of us in a relatively short period of time — well, short compared to the scarcity of LFG/LFP posts for our location! Are you 2 still looking?

I'm trying to transition from online play back to real tabletops. I'm not fussy about content but I'd LOVE to play an adventure path. Continuity is good!

Hooked up with TAG, but all I've seen so far is PFS, which is kind of the opposite of continuity. Fun, but not quite the same.

Dreamer, Rodrigues, as far as I'm concerned...

* Age is just a number

* Mixed company is preferred. IMHO, it keeps the game from being too 'locker room', i.e. it tends to discourage bathroom humour and testosterone-filled, kill-first-Speak-With-Dead-later, I-got-your-diplomacy-right-here-but-I-call-it-Intimidate play styles. :P

* I strongly favour true teamwork over the "group of soloists" paradigm. I also prefer thinking and/or planning over pure spontaneity and visceral reaction, at least when the option to choose is available.

* Experience is nice but not hyper-important. An open mind, a willingness to learn and flexibility are far more important than experience. "Experience" can mean "knowledgeable" but often means "stubborn, with lots of ingrained misconceptions".

Good luck in your searches if you haven't found comfortable communities yet.
