This PbP game will take your character from level 1 to level 3 and eventually continue until level 5 or 6.
The mini-campaign will be composed of chained Paizo modules sited in the city of Falcon's Hollow and its surroundings.
The game will provide PFS credit and will be run with PFS-legal characters.
As a GM I commit to finish up the two initial modules of the arc:
- Hollow's Last Hope
- Crown of the Kobold King
Whether we continue from there will depend basically if I am liking the group and everybody is having fun. If so we probably will follow up with:
- Carnival of Tears
- Revenge of the Kobold King
- Hungry are the Dead
You will be playing the role of just recruited Pathfinders in the Lodge of Falcon's Hollow, or send from Absalom to secure and built up the recently created Lodge.
The chain can be tricky to advance through with legal PFS characters, so pay attention at the rigid current XP requirements.
The town of Falcon's Hollow needs a miracle.
The plague has come to the town of Falcon's Hollow, and not even the town's priest can abate its wretched course. With the coughs of the sick and the wails of the dying echoing through town, the local herbalist uncovers a cure, but she needs some brave heroes to retrieve the ingredients. Finding the cure means risking the dangerous Darkmoon Vale, infiltrating a witch's haunted hut, and delving the ruins of an abandoned dwarven monastery.
Hollow's Last Hope is a wilderness exploration and dungeon adventure for 1st-level characters, compatible with the world's most popular fantasy roleplaying game. This sixteen-page adventure includes details on the haunted forest and deadly ruins that hide the key ingredients to the town's salvation. Do your heroes have the skill and courage to find the cure in time?
RECRUITING RULES
System: Pathfinder Society sanctioned play
Player Count: 4-5
Allowed Content: Only Core, APG and UM classes and archetypes that are PFS legal. You will be required to prove ownership for anything in your sheet not part of the Core PFS assumption.
Recruitment policy: Players will be recruited under the following priority criteria
1) People who has previously GMed me
2) People who is GMing APs
3) Other GMs
4) Active players
5) Other players
#) Special: I will reserve 1 slot for someone new to PbP, all the other players will be selected from solid posters
Level: 1
Character xp: Your character should have exactly 2xp when we begun or be able to assign 2xp value chronicles after the end of the first module, as the second module is thought for 2nd level characters.
Extra recruitment opportunities might open after the end of each module.
Style of Play: Fast pace with RP opportunities encouraged
Initiative policy: Characters losing initiative to the enemy must wait, for the rest, first arrives, first plays
Inaction policy: Control can be taken by the GM if required to maintain the pace if there is no single post in 1 day
Encounter management: I will prefer to use Roll20, but if party has problems to access at some of its usual posting places I will use Google Docs instead
Dice policy: Players through built-in dice; GM may roll AoO, initiative and other reactive rolls
Roleplaying policy: At least minimal roleplaying is expected (try to avoid lengthy passages not directly related with the scenario action though).
Re-rolls: No T-Shirt or Products ownership re-rolls. I don't make any exception in PbP events I organize. I just had enough problems with it and T-Shirt re-rolls were made for goals that can hardly be accommodated to PbP play. So sorry, no re-rolls.
You accept all these disclaimers upon playing this story arc.
Kick off date: During Christmas (might start earlier if found a solid group)
Refer Character you are presenting for recruitment along with any other information you think useful.
Please no RP in the recruitment post.
Remember you cannot be playing two PFS Scenarios with the same character at the same time.
As a GM I am observant of the rules and enjoy good combat tactics, but I like RPing and do not play to compete with the players but rather to have fun, but following the PFS rules set. By the end of the arc I would love we have had so much amusement we want to continue on playing scenarios or an AP together.

Interested. I'm a regular player and can commit to posting at least once a day. This character has 2 XP from subtier 1 or 1-2 adventures, plus 1 more from a subtier 2-4 adventure (We Be Goblins Too) which I hope we can work around if I'm chosen.
Examples of my RP:
Goragg here
Yugatta here
Ezekias here
Xichikitte here

"Greeting, greetings!"
Darius has 2 xp in about one week (finishing off an adventure as we speak) and wouldn't mind mingling with a bunch of people for an extended period. I'd fall in the number 4 category, being a regular playing with a high post rate.
He's a skald, so fills the bard slot with a little more front liner capabilities.

Just personal desire.
I don't think this is the place to discuss the topic. Thus, let me just say it is a matter of taste and playing style, and interest to encourage a stable rules set and content creation rather than new rules creation.
I understand the module level constraints make the recruitment rules difficult to meet. If we don't succeed to find a group I will consider running just the first module or using pregen-chornicles credit. But I feel the game will eventually fill up anyway.
I would not feel comfortable to force you change your character to something you did not wanted to play with. But if you already had in mind to play a core character, I am perfectly ok with level 1 character rebuilds.

I present Human Cleric of Gorum with 2 XP. I still need to flesh out background and personality, but the name says it all.
I am an active player and currently GMing Carrion Crown AP and almost finished with the first book.
I just want to confirm that you are only allowing traits from APG and not Ultimate Campaign or other PFS legal sources.

That's a shame. I somehow thought all old modules were sanctioned for playing.
After carefully searching the forums it seems I was wrong and only the following are sanctioned modules.
As this post opens up expectations that cannot be met I will proceed to close recruitment and more carefully think what I want to do about it. Thanks a lot Lithrac, you saved me of further shame.
I want to apologize in front of all others. I will let you know once I open this as not PFS legal.
RECRUITMENT IS CLOSED
