Newcomer in need


Online Play


Hi Ya'll! I'm recently new to the game of Pathfinder. I'm doing a campaign withsome friends right now that is homebrew. I'm enjoying learning it and developing my character. So much so that I want to play more than my group can. It led me here. Looking to join the Pathfinder Society!

I'm really exited to get started actually. I am mostly looking for a little guidance and maybe a small online adventure where I won't look too much like a fool as well. My computer access is limited, howevefr, my smartphone and internet are really reliable and efficient.

Any asassistance would be greatly appreciated!


Welcome to the Paizo boards, armlessbaby.

I haven't been playing PFS very long myself, so I don't know if there are other methods of rustling up a spot in a PFS game, but there is one way I do know to find games to play in.

Head to http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/community/campaigns/recruitment new games are posted all the time. Some will be PFS games, most aren't. Apply to any games that interest you. There are a lot more players than DMs, so don't be discouraged if you don't get into a game right away. My success percentage is well below 50%.

I've had many good times playing by post on these boards. Most DMs are willing to take on newcomers who are serious about playing.

Play by post is not for everyone. The pace tends to be slow. The games are often RP heavy which I like, but it's not everyone's cup of tea.

Good luck.


RP or combat. Either of, I'm always willing to adapt and try new things. Thanks for giving me a direction to look in. I am actually looking to do a little play by post and maybe even some PFS with some VTTs like Roll20 since I can collaborate on my mobile devices with that. Once again, thanks.

Join the chat room linked at pfrpg.com.au and ask anyone for help in creating a character to get started in PFS. If you're keen, they're keen, and you can't ask too many questions.

All you have to do to get into a game is sign up.


I've got a Tier 1-5 Roll20.net adventure that is starting soon. Send me a PM if you're interested.
