So, I love Pathfinder. And, if you know who I am and are aware of any of my posts, you know that I love love love love LOVE kobolds. Unfortunately, Pathfinder Society does not allow kobolds, which, to me, sucks. Frankly, I find the seven core races rather boring, aasimars and tieflings too steeped in Mary Sue potential, and tengu just arbitrary and random.
So I figured I'd try a different approach. I've never done a Play-by-Post, but I'd be willing to learn. I'd kinda be interested in playing an Adventure Path, perhaps Rise of the Runelords. My only personal requirement is that, obviously kobolds should be permitted. I have an idea for a CN kobold (trust me, context) and he's mostly statted out and ready to adventure. And run like hell from any other kobold he meets.
I have absolutely insane amounts of free time, so willing Game Masters (and obviously other players), kindly step forward.
Have you considered playing The Sunless Citadel and casting yourself in the role of Meepo? That could work...
I'm not interested in 3.5. Also, I want to play an alchemist.
Say hello to Korrith Embermaw, exiled bomber.
He's my alias, you can see his backstory on his profile page.
Are there any takers, or was this a wash?
There was a recruitment thread for a kobold-only homebrew version of Kingmaker a short while back that drew a huge amount of recruits (myself included), who all made characters including fluff and crunch.
Personally, I'm not able to put in the time that's needed for GMing but there might've been a potential GM or two in there. If anyone else'd be interested in GMing, that would also be the place to look for players (and PM me! :) )
I actually don't want a kobolds-only campaign. I'm kinda against racial restrictions in general, with the exceptions of the drow noble and strix, those are pushing it.
I will ask if there are any GMs, though.
If a kingmaker campaign pops out of it, i wouldnt mind joining in
I'm not interested in GMing but if somebody would offer to GM i'd love to join as a player.
Okay, I'm curious now. What's Kingmaker?
Mainly, I want to play something other than Society for once. I'm interested in the Adventure Paths, though if someone throws a homebrew, more-detailed-than-the-Dreadlands-could-ever-hope-to-be setting at my face, I'd be all ears. Horns. Head-fin thingies. Whatever.
IF I GO EDIT THEN WILL YOU STILL CALL ME SUPERMAN: Never mind that first question, for I am derp. Of course it's an Adventure Path!
ARGAFARGA I HATE THE EDITING TIME LIMIT
Anyways... the AP that I'd be most interested in is (surprise surprise) Rise of the Runelords. For one thing, Korrith is from Varisia anyway, so it'd make more sense for him to be there. Second, it's the original Adventure Path. It's the standard for all Paizo stories to come, and nothing says "Welcome to Golarion" like a goblin raid (yes, I have read some of it. I'm good at separating in/out-of-character knowledge, though). It'd also be nice if someone anniversary-edition'd my face in (which I have NOT read anything of).
Finally, something else I would really really like to try at some point in my gaming career: Mythic. I love the path abilities, and everything about Mythic just makes me think "You know what? Let's play some d20 Exalted!"
Is there anyone interested, or was this thread a waste?
I wish I could run this one I love kobolds and RotRL. However I have too many games running right now to tackle another one I even pulled out of the ones I was playing in to give the ones I have the attention they deserve. Maybe you could check out the collaborative world recruitment thread. I know it's not quite what your looking for but maybe you can find a place for your alchemist there. Good luck I know how hard it can be to have a great character and no where to play him.
I've done a little bit of play-by-post game running and it can be a pretty heavy undertaking. The GM needs a lot of drive to really see it through, so please don't feel too disappointed if nobody steps forward right now.
Plus, there's the daunting task of dealing with a mix of players all from different walks of life, different gaming philosophies, and different play styles - something a lot more challenging than proposing a new campaign with an established gaming group you know. I'd contemplate running Rise of the Rulelords (it's an awesome campaign), but the last time I ran online I had to content with a new player recruit badgering and badgering me about wanting to use advanced firearms despite my saying no that it really shot the wind out of my sails. It was almost a blessing that my computer utterly died immediately thereafter, losing a lot of my prepared files and killing my game.
Ah That would be irritating that's why I suggest GM FIAT It can handle those pesky free will problems.
Side effects may include:
Maniacal Laughter
Crushing your enemies
Seeing them driven before you
Hearing the lamentations of the women
Monologues
More Maniacal Laughter
Resemblance to a Locomotive
Rocks Fall You Die
Please consult your multiverse before taking GM FIAT.
Also I tend to take arguments like that to the discussion thread and lay down what's happening. If someone wants something I'm not willing to give them in a game I'll point them elsewhere.
I hope that helps if you ever get into running a game on here again.
I tend to find PbP easier myself although that's probably due to my social anxieties heheh.
I don't think I could play an evil character without them becoming Stupid Evil.
