Experienced player looking for a weeknight roll20 game


Recruitment


I am looking for a regular pathfinder game to play, ideally on a Tuesday or Thursday evening. I am in the Central time zone, so a start time around 7 or 8 pm central is perfect.

I am an experienced player, and I don't mind helping out new players or otherwise assisting the GM if needed.

I enjoy making characters to fit a group so while I have a few ideas floating around, I'd love to hear what you think your party is missing.

I'm open to playing just about anything but fair warning, I've played the first three books of Kingmaker and am currently DM'ing RotRL.


I know you said Tuesday or Thursday, but if Mondays are at all available to you I just started a Roll20 game and unfortunately had three of six players drop before the first session. If at all interested you can check out this post.


Man, I totally saw your post and was considering responding.

Problem is, I DM a game on Mondays :/ Otherwise I would definitely be up for it. Thanks a lot for the offer. I'll get in touch if anything changes with my schedule, and please feel free to do the same. I'm just itching to play!

My wife games on Tuesday leaving me home alone bored for about 5 hours. I've been looking into starting something on roll20 anyway, and I'm in the same time zone. Maybe we can work something out.

edit: 8pm is perfect for me too! That's when the kids got to bed.


Depending on what you guys put together, I'd be interested in playing too. I'm on pacific time, but I work pretty early.

Awesome! You looking to GM or play? I am pretty firmly looking to play, as I'm currently running 2 games and I think that's my max.

GMing is fine by me, although my resume in running(Pathfinder) is pretty short. It begins with and ends with one module: Wrath of the Righteous; with the others in the adventure path to follow shortly. Before Pathfinder I was into White Wolf's Exalted.

Feel like getting mythic?


Sure! I like the mythic rules. My last online game was actually just starting Wrath of the Righteous when the GM had to can the game. So, I've played maybe three sessions of it.

Sounds like we have 1 maybe here as well... should be easy enough to fill out the group if we make a proper recruitment post.


I'm still interested, and I like mythic too.
@Butler: (assuming you take on the mantle of GM) do you know if you'd like to use the Golarion setting, or something else?


@shrodingercat: There are two games I'm considering: The Emerald Spire and Wrath of the Righteous. So, to answer your question, it's yes.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Both sound great. I only just got a taste of WoR, and Emerald Spire sounds really cool.

What sort of house rules do you play under Butler? I'm open to whatever, though I've mostly done fairly RAW games with point buy creation.


Here, let me put it to you this way. The Emerald Spire is laid back and relaxed allowing PCs to sandbox and collect quests to complete. It's reminds me of video games, which might be the point since it's part of the Pathfinder Online.

Wrath of the Righteous is a little more complicated, uses Mythic Adventures and Ultimate Campaign books. Essentially PCs march into hell and slap the devil around.

I'm up for either actually, because I have already gone through the Worldwound Incursion already, and the Emerald Spire doesn't seem too story aggressive.


Both sound pretty cool. What character building guidelines would you put forth?


Yup, both would be good. From what I've read, Emerald Spire is supposed to be more difficult, and WoR is apparently fairly easy once you go mythic. Of course, GM can always adjust that sort of thing.

Since you've both asked here are the guidelines I enjoy. Shoot me any questions you've got!

Point Buy:
-20 for Emerald Spire
-15 for Wrath of the Righteous

Starting Level: 1

Allowed Races:(I do reserve the right to tweak the tieflings and aasimars using their 'Blood' books)
-The Core Races(Even half-elf: Drow)
-Tiefling
-Aasimar

Disallowed Classes:
-I hate saying no to any class, but whatever you build will need to a fighting chance.

Classes of Focus:
-Paladins

Traits: 3 - 5
-1 Race Trait
-1 Social Trait
-1 Religious / Faith Trait (optional)
-1 Your choice
-1 Campaign Trait(WotR)

Resources:
-Starts at first level.

Alignments:
-Good
-If you want to play an evil character that's fine as long as long as your PC strives to switch to from the dark side and become good. Rules for redemption are in the Wrath of the Righteous players guide.(Believe it or not it fits the Monomyth)

A brief history to why your character is an adventurer, and feel free to use the Ultimate Campaign background generator. It's fun!


Hm...well, I'm not a big fan of characters with less than 20pts...and I usually play neutral characters...although I'm leaning towards RoR...hm. Seems I'm in a pickle.

I may not be right for your group.

Bigger than that though, I think you/we need more people.


not sure what you mean by classes of focus... If I played a paladin, I'd probably do a ranged build but honestly I find them a bit boring, if powerful. I might be interested in a Warpriest though.

And yeah.. does good mean only good, or does it mean non-evil? I'm fine either way. Typically I don't mind neutral characters as long as no one is making a character to purposely disrupt the party..i.e. I'm technically CN but I'll play like I'm CE.

I think the point buy at 15 for WoR is probably just because it's what is recommended by the AP. I usually do 20... really 15 just limits MAD classes in my experience.

We definitely need at least a couple more. Maybe even up to 5 or 6 total players because of the almost inevitable quits in an online game.

It's kind of odd for me.. I'm used to filling gaps in a party... in the absence of other players, I'm not really sure what kind of character I want to play.

WotR needs PCs that are heroic have the intention of doing 'good' things. However, in the Players Guide for the AP are rules for playing evil characters on the path of redemption towards changing their alignments.

Also, paladins in WotR are, well, the thing. PCs march into Worldwound on a crusade. Plus, there are things in the game that are focused on that class. And I thought it was important to let you know that.

And before I make a post requesting more players, what do we want to play?


I'm definitely open to either, but I'd go for WotR.

And given what you say, I would likely go paladin, but either an archery build or maybe a reach/control build. May end up being multiclassed.

And we can do 20 points as a point buy for that too.


Cool, gonna work on a paladin this weekend. Thanks for taking the reigns on this butler!


Oh yeah, starting wealth?

Under resources; starting level.


are you looking for more players i would be up for it


I wasn't sure if you meant average wealth by class at 1st, or max wealth.

Need any help recruiting?

Maybe.

I put a post out and it hasn't brought a single hit in yet.

Butler: When I get a chance later on, I'll post your link around a couple of LFG forums.

Shadow Lodge

What he said.


I think we do, haven't heard from butler in a couple days though.


I am still interested at this point.

will we be playing on butlers campaign?

http://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75hojva/recruiting&page=last

Feel free to contact me at kstevens81@gmail.com for a game. As of now I am not watching this thread anymore, but I am still looking for a pathfinder game to play.
