In the bustling city of Wati, the Church of Pharasma is holding a lottery allowing explorers to delve the tombs of the city's vast necropolis in search of Osirion's lost glories. In the course of investigating dusty tombs and fighting their ancient guardians and devious traps, the heroes will embroil themselves in a plot that could shake the pillars of this ancient kingdom, and perhaps, all of Golarion.
-----------------------
Expectations
- Committed players who can ideally post once a day.
- If you don't post for a week without an explanation first, I reserve the right to remove you from the game. If you don't post for an extended period (48+ hours) in combat, expect to be warned then quickly DMPCed.
- Don't be a jerk.
- I try to run all rules as written, unless otherwise stated before hand. If I mess up, tell me and I'll fix it. If you mess up, be willing to accept correction. I think I'm pretty fair.
- Applicants should be decent writers with a commitment to role-playing.
- You have read the Mummy's Mask Player's Guide and are at least somewhat knowledgeable about Golarion.
-----------------------
Game Style
- We'll be using Roll20 for combat, so if accepted, please make an account.
- I roll initiative for everyone, enemies of the same type all act together. Combat is run in chunks. Ie all players before monster A and monster A (update), then all players after A but before B and B (update), then any left over players (update).
- I will try to remember to prompt you for knowledge rolls, and may sometimes roll skills for you when it would benefit you.
-----------------------
Level: 1
Ability Scores: 20 point buy
Alignment: Non-evil
Races: Anything official. The weirder it is, the better your story should be. Alternate racial traits and heritages are fine. No Fiendish Heritage, you can be a Demon-Spawn or Asura-Spawn or whatever without the feat, no abilities of the d100 table.
Classes: Anything Paizo, all archetypes available.
HP: Max at first, then 1/2+1
Traits: 2 traits, one must be a campaign trait.
Starting Gold: Average
-----------------------
To apply you need a completed stat block, a completed back-story, and a description of the characters appearance and personality. I am recruiting four to five players. I'm looking for good writing and characters that will mesh well together. Numerous grammar and spelling mistakes will disqualify you. Posting history will be taken into account. Recruitment will be open for a week (until June 14th midnight EST).
Good luck and thanks for applying! :)
Quick question! Are there any aspects of the Pathfinder Unchained that you will accept/implement in the game?
Such as the unchained rogue, the artistry/lore skills, background skill ranks, any crafting?, skill unlocks/stamina, simplified spellcasting, etc.
Thanks ^^
Sweet! Already started on my slyph sorceress of Sekhmet! Have to change stuff around as I had rolled her ability scores. Going to bed now but I should be finish by late afternoon! Thank you for this opportunity!

I don't own Unchained, so I can't form an opinion on any of that. I can look at the classes online, and they seem fine. The rest I'm not sure about.

Alright, question time. I have an Undine cleric of Wadjet who'd be pretty much ready to go, but... I was struck with inspiration. Would you be likely to allow an Akashic class from Dreamscarred Press? A vizier could be an interesting thematic fit...
But, if you say no, I'll accept it graciously and just leave my cleric there. I'm not committed to the idea, it was just a thought that stuck me!
Dot, archaeologist bard/paladin of some kind coming soon.
GM, I've had an idea for a Mummy's Mask character for a while that's a little odd, but deeply tied into the story.
I've written out the background stuff and thought I'd submit it for you to take a look at so you could tell me if the idea seemed interesting to you or not.
Please tell me what you think
dotting for interest, while I work some thing up. :)

Here's Alayi! I am ready to go into some tombs and get rich! Oh! And of course respect the dead. I mean who wants to wake a mummy or something like that.
EDIT: And I have included stats on Alayi's profile page.
Here is my character submission, Amyrtaeus. He is a kineticist from the Occult Adventures playtest, and his party role includes finding and disabling traps as well as ranged damage support. He'll have a few nifty tricks up his sleeve along the way, such as being able to disable traps at a distance at level 2. I may dip a couple of levels in barbarian later and make him into a melee striker with Kinetic Blade, but I'm not sure yet. It'll depend on the party and what is needed.
If you click the link in his name in the statblock, it'll take you to a Myth-Weavers character sheet as well. All of the information below is also available in his character page. Thanks!

Dotting, with a couple questions:
1) Are you allowing starting stats above 18? Or is 18 the maximum?
2) Are Ancient Osirian, Osirian, and Common three separate languages? Or are Common/Osirian the same thing?
Thanks - I'll have a character up in the next couple of days.

Wow! Interesting character! I like her!
Dot.
I have an idea rolling around in my head for the past week, and this seems to be the place to try. A human sorcerer (bloodline undetermined yet), that is a conjuration specialist. Not just the normal summon monster, but especially the "pit" spells and other conjuration spells.
I don't have time today, and maybe not tomorrow but will have something up by Wednesday.

For that matter, I remember reading that Osirian and Ancient Osirian are mutually intelligible as *spoken* languages, but are mutually unintelligible when *written* -- are you using that ruling, or having them be completely separate.
I specifically built this character to play in Mummy's Mask. He's an ex-slave Katapeshi inquisitor of Sarenrae. Back story is included. Just enough to suggest a way to play him, and allow room for growth. I desperately want to play this.
Well, I worked something up.
Will make an alias if selected. :)

Divine Favour
Morgrym was born of a poorer family in the area of Highhelm. While in his early years, his family regaled him with stories of his ancestors and their deeds. This caused him to want to emulate his ancestors, and to be as heroic as the ones in story.
While he was a young dwarf, he was all over anything that he could end up climbing, but like any kid that climbs things, he eventually fell.
When he entered the church, the elder in charge of the church, healed him, but his family could not pay, so his family agreed that payment was to be his service until released by the church.
So until the age of 50, Morgrymm was a ward of the church, where he learned how to channel divine magic and how to defend himself.
One of his weapons trainers taught him the use of classic weapons, where he excelled, and decided to take up the use of the weapon himself.
Shortly after his 51st birthday, he heard stories of a place where fantastic amounts of wealth and artifacts. So to further looking this, he asked the head of his church if he could leave to pursue independent studies and research. He was granted this permission, and so he made his way down to Almas with a caravan.
Shortly after he got there, he booked passage onto a ship for Sothis. When he arrived, he wanted nothing to do with the sea, and he booked passage on a river boat which he eventually left it in the town of Wadi, where he stayed for a couple of months doing odd jobs.
He was killed and robbed by a street thief, but a passerby took him to a church, where he started to breathe again. He promised the church that he would pay them back for any healing that he had received, and now with funds running low, he joined the lottery so that he can earn money, in order to pay back the church, and to look into why he did not die.
dotting in with this chaarcter.
will need to adjust it of course but
picture a little bit Rick O'Connell meshed with Indiana Jones.
what are the gun rules being used?
Going to change my character to an aasimar paladin of Anubis. He's one of the characters I got rolling around in my head. Besides I've got a good concept for him!
Can we use drawbacks to get an additional trait?
Ankh is ready to go!
He's a Life Shaman, which makes him very good at healing and killing undead and not much else at this point.
As far as party roles go, he'll make a great support-caster and healer for the first few levels, then he'll be branching out into some necromancy as well.
are you okay with someone who DMed Mummy's Mask from start to finish, or would that bother you?
Any chance for PFS credit for this?
Given that the game is a 20 point buy, I believe that automatically makes it no PFS credit as one of the things of PFS is all characters are a 15 point buy. (Sorry if I am wrong, but I am pretty sure I am right on this one >.<)
That aside I do plan on making a character for this as I love Egyptian lore and such and so I've been itching to see this ran and would absolutely love to get into it. I shall begin the thinking process.
You do know that for adventure paths, you can give out credit as if people had used pregenerated characters right? PFS credit for APs do not have to be Dmed exactly as written.
Yeah, for APs you can play through it with any build rules and still get PFS credit. The point buy for PFS actually is also 20, though.
Can we please not do PFS? I really don't want to deal with all the extra restrictions to make our characters PFS compatible.
Nevermind, this is why I made sure to in a sorry in the parenthesis. My apologies. I could've sworn for some reason it was 15, all the same sorry sorry.

You don't have to run it as PFS in order for PFS credit to be issued.
As long as the *intention* is to run the entire AP, for PFS purposes it is run in "campaign mode" -- ie however the group wants to run it. A chronicle is then issued at the completion of each book to whoever wants it.
Basically, the only thing it adds is a little bit of paperwork (preparing the chronicle and, ideally, reporting the game). Also, the GM will need a PFS number, as will any player who wants credit.
Will be submitting something for this. First concept is a life oracle, but I'm going to wait and see a bit what roles are underrepresented.

Description: Noonan is a towering figure with a shaven head and sunburned skin, he looks like someone who keeps
himself in shape with vigorous exercise but has lived his life indoors due to his pale yet sunburned skin.
Background: Noonan was born a slave and purchased by a wealthy merchant who wanted a servant for his harem. Unfortunatly for Noonan, this ment castration and while harboring anger for many a year, he has slowly learned to accept his state. His master came upon hard times recently and had to reduce his household and be limited to just one mistress. So he sent Noonan away as well with a purse full of gold as 'compensation' for his long years of servitude.
Here we go! I'm SCKnightHero1 by the way. But this is my aasimar paladin of Anubis. I felt that he should have some sort of flaw, which while not a drawback, does create some interesting roleplay options. He also serves as a tank and damage dealer while also providing backup healing although he primarily focus on keeping the villains at bay.
And by armored sandals I'm referring to these.
Welp, here is my character. I have been wanting to try out this campaign for a while and I think this would be a fun and interesting character to play through it.

Trap Finder
Dro'ka is my name, plundering has been my game. Ever since I was a little tyke I've been getting myself into trouble and slipping into ruins and bedrooms alike to borrow their treasures. Of course, there have been many a time I've screwed up and gotten caught but with this kind of territory comes a quick mind and head full of lies. So far I have escaped the law and I feel like it won't catch up to me soon.
Dro'ka Zahil was born born to a poor merchant family but was never good at plying the trade. He could sell sand to slave if he wanted but for the life of him he didn't have an eye for the value of things. Thus his mother gave up on him and told him to keep himself busy and not in trouble. This left him going about doing what he wanted and what he wanted was adventure and a bit of fun.
Throughout his childhood he would slip into caravans that were going out to the pyramids, going to other cities, or just simply slipping himself into noble houses just for the fun of it. He believed that life was a test and he aimed to succeed. He picked up languages along the way, be it from folklore or from the pyramids themselves. He was always curious and that curiosity kept him busy even when he wasn't getting into trouble.
He showed no sign of slowing down as he grew up but he did at least learn how to handle a few weapons. He began to learn how to stalk his targets and figure out their weaknesses. He even learned how to disguise himself so he didn't have to worry bout it if he was seen. He didn't steal most of the these days, at least from those of the living. He instead just enjoyed the challenge. But he was always looking and waiting for another challenge or a big payoff that may let him enjoy the riches of those he toyed with.
Always up for a bit of fun, especially if it involves a little danger or isn't exactly legal. He can be a little bit of a flirt but typically he only does so when is playing a con or a attempting to get close to a target. Apart from that he is a bit of a genuine romantic when he actually finds someone to go after but so far his own antics bite him in the ass in that department.
Dotting for interest, not sure what I'll be making yet, though. Gotta let some stuff percolate for a day or two.

Wow! Interesting character! I like her!Here's Alayi! I am ready to go into some tombs and get rich! Oh! And of course respect the dead. I mean who wants to wake a mummy or something like that.
EDIT: And I have included stats on Alayi's profile page.
Thanks! I like it when people praise me!~
Anyway, what follows is her appearance, personality, background, and stats ready for viewing.
Alayi's Appearance
A Young looking girl with light reddish skin, black hair, and red eyes, wearing a somewhat Qadiran looking Explorer's Outfit. She has a Scimitar on her waist, three Kunai on her belt, and a Shortbow with two quivers of arrows on her back.
Alayi is rather outgoing, but due to a rough past, she rather play instead of getting to know you all that much. But she does know the value of "friends" that would be able to help her.
Alayi's from what she could remember is that she was a servant for a merchant in Katheer, in Qadira. She was trained to be an assistant to the merchant but was rather "hot-headed" and would not sit still for training. She would sneak out often enough to see the sights and sounds of Katheer when the sun went down.
But after being with her master for a few years, her master died from old age. She did not want to take over her master's mercantile business, so she left with the gold after selling the business. She traveled, learning from various sources of how to take care of herself. Learning to be prepared with various weapons, mostly with her scimitar and the eastern weapons called kunai. But when Alayi began to run out of money, she heard of the opening of tombs in Osirion. Excitedly, she booked passage to Osirion and found out that Wati is the place to be. Ready, and prepared, she is ready to delve tombs and get rich.

@Alayi Indeed, I enjoy the exotic characters myself. I was originally thinking about making an Oread for this campaign, something of man who looked like he was removed from the very pyramids themselves going with the Resurrection campaign trait...but I didn't see a skill monkey thrown in yet and I've wanted to make a dual wielding kukri character for a while so I made a human. (Bleh, never much care for humans but I had an idea for one for once.)
If allowed multiple submissions then I will be eager to try again with the Oread as a Warpriest of Sekhmet or a Catfolk Warpriest of Bastet.

Honestly, the reason I wanted to make Alayi is that I wanted to make an ifrit, and swashbucker fits her rather well due to her personality. In her background she sneaks out during the night to see the sights, and also do other things. Thats why I gave her the Trap Finder trait. And of course being brash and wanting to get money.
Edit: Ah, yes, another reason for her is she was born in Katheer, Qadira. Where more of the elemental races exist due to genies that are "bound" there.
I could see Alayi and Dro'ka getting along very very well ^^. He is quite the mischief maker himself.

I was originally thinking about making an Oread for this campaign, something of man who looked like he was removed from the very pyramids themselves going with the Resurrection campaign trait...but I didn't see a skill monkey thrown in yet and I've wanted to make a dual wielding kukri character for a while so I made a human. (Bleh, never much care for humans but I had an idea for one for once.)
If allowed multiple submissions then I will be eager to try again with the Oread as a Warpriest of Sekhmet or a Catfolk Warpriest of Bastet.
Honestly, the reason I wanted to make Alayi is that I wanted to make an ifrit, and swashbucker fits her rather well due to her personality. In her background she sneaks out during the night to see the sights, and also do other things. Thats why I gave her the Trap Finder trait. And of course being brash and wanting to get money.
Edit: Ah, yes, another reason for her is she was born in Katheer, Qadira. Where more of the elemental races exist due to genies that are "bound" there.
I can see Alayi catching Khere's eye as he has a weakness for exotic and foreign women (that includes women who aren't from Wati so a certain undine cleric of Wadjet would catch his eye too). Lol
Alright, question time. I have an Undine cleric of Wadjet who'd be pretty much ready to go, but... I was struck with inspiration. Would you be likely to allow an Akashic class from Dreamscarred Press? A vizier could be an interesting thematic fit...
But, if you say no, I'll accept it graciously and just leave my cleric there. I'm not committed to the idea, it was just a thought that stuck me!
Interesting character and good luck!
I like geniekin as well as the other planetouched races.
Interested for sure!
Hey Olmek! I'm working on a ratfolk swashbuckler for your consideration. He'd fill the role traditionally covered by a rogue.

The one thing going for him was that Takhet possessed a preternatural gift of gab; he could talk his way into or out of nearly any situation, and his persuasiveness was such that people who started out angry with him often ended up seeing things his way by the end of a conversation, even if they weren't sure why. This ability was eventually revealed to be mystical in nature when a bullete erupted from the fields one afternoon and went on a rampage; scared out of his mind, Takhet started nervously but politely asking the land-shark to go away, and to the amazement of the stunned onlookers, the beast immediately did so!
After a few years of trial and error, the halfling learned to harness the magical potential in his blood and decided to make the most of it. He talked his way onto a caravan headed for Sothis proper and has been seeking to make a name for himself ever since. Upon hearing of the latest lottery for rights to plunder the great Necropolis, Takhet traveled to Wati, looking to join a team of adventurers in yet another bid for fortune.
Tahket is friendly to a fault and goes out of his way to make friends with everyone, but he is not above bending the truth when it suits his purposes. In his experience, good relations make for good avenues of opportunity when need arises, and although he would never knowingly place a friend in harms way, bumming a favor or a free meal or a place to sleep are just some of the things that friends do for one another. His devotion to Khepri is sincere, however, and despite his laid-back attitude he will always do any work that he's agreed to do to the best of his ability and with minimal complaint.
And here is Lethaleen, unwilling Oracle of the Dark Tapestry, searching for answers.

Lethaleen tends to be quiet and reserved around people he doesn’t know, though once he opens up he is extremely charming. He tries to be cautious, knowing from personal expiriance what can happen when you act without thinking, although sometimes his natural impulsiveness and impatience take over. He wants to understand what happened to him on the fateful night when he gained his powers, and help as many people as he can along the way.[/Spoiler}
[Spoiler=Backstory]Lethaleen grew up in the city of Sothis, his parents were moderately successful merchants, a fact that he tried his hardest to forget; Lethaleen was bored of his simple city life and the mundane future of entering his family business, like his parents wanted him to, he dreamed of adventure and excitement, of entering the tombs of the ancients and emerging with untold riches.
Unfortunately for him, he was to get his wish. On the eve of his 26th birthday, he and his family were abducted by cultists to be sacrificed in a dark ritual; he couldn’t see, one by one he heard his parents and the other unfortunates die beneath the cultist’s daggers, then it was his turn however, when the dagger pierced his heart, Something Took Notice; when he awoke, Lethaleen found that the cultists had all been killed, and that he was irrevocably altered. His blood was filled with an unshakeable chill, and his eyes could pierce the deepest darkness; and now when he slept his dreams were no longer hopeful, but instead, filled with eldritch whispers, and the fell light of unknown stars. Desperate for answers he sought knowledge in the great libraries of Sothis, there he found hits of a connection between his dreams and the pharaohs of old, so Lethaleen resolved to travel to Wati, and take part in the lottery, hoping to uncover more answers; or, failing that, to find something that he could sell to further his research.
Are we allowed to use the Variant Multiclass system from unchained? if so, I would like to do that with Sorcerer(Starsoul bloodline). If not, that's fine too.
So many questions. :)
Alright, question time. I have an Undine cleric of Wadjet who'd be pretty much ready to go, but... I was struck with inspiration. Would you be likely to allow an Akashic class from Dreamscarred Press? A vizier could be an interesting thematic fit...
But, if you say no, I'll accept it graciously and just leave my cleric there. I'm not committed to the idea, it was just a thought that stuck me!
I'm allowing two submissions per person, so if you want to write it up, go ahead. :)
Dotting, with a couple questions:
1) Are you allowing starting stats above 18? Or is 18 the maximum?
2) Are Ancient Osirian, Osirian, and Common three separate languages? Or are Common/Osirian the same thing?
Thanks - I'll have a character up in the next couple of days.
1) You can go above 18.
2) They are three separate languages. I believe Common is actually Taldan and Osirian and Ancient Osirian are similar enough to hold a conversation with some difficulty, but the written languages are very different.
what are the gun rules being used?
I'm using Emerging Guns for the game.
Can we use drawbacks to get an additional trait?
Yes.
are you okay with someone who DMed Mummy's Mask from start to finish, or would that bother you?
Any chance for PFS credit for this?
I don't have a problem with campaign knowledge, as long as the meta-gaming is kept to a minimum.
I'm planning on running this as a PFS game, no.
If allowed multiple submissions then I will be eager to try again with the Oread as a Warpriest of Sekhmet or a Catfolk Warpriest of Bastet.

I really don't consider a warpriest as a cleric. They can heal, but it isn't their forte. :)

It's just a convenient way for me to divide character concepts. I know that the hybrid classes blur that, but it's easiest for me to lump all of the 'divine' characters together.
