Hello everyone, this is just a general interest check for a campaign, (probably PBP), in which the PCs play as members of the city guard, in charge of investigating crimes and defending the innocent.
The campaign would be very episodic and strongly intrigue-based. You, the players, would play as city guardsmen, in charge of investigating a new case each adventure, finding out what happened, and, where applicable, bringing criminals to justice. There would be approximately 2 combat encounters per case on average, meaning that the bulk of it would be interrogating witnesses and suspects, investigating crime scenes, and just flat using your brains.
And yes, you will be asked to use your actual brains to actually solve the cases using real thinking. An intelligence check can get you a hint, but I will try my damnedest to force you to actually think.
And of course, with a position of authority, you will sometimes need to answer the kinds of questions no ability check can answer for you.
I would definitely be interested. I play in a very similar long-running, online campaign (not on this board), which I really enjoy. I would love to play in a similar campaign with a GM with a different perspective.
And by long-running, I mean pre-Pathfinder. We're still using 3.5 rules. In fact, I just checked, and the first post was March 12, 2007. So being able to use a Pathfinder version of a class or even a brand new class is really appealing.
I'm quite interested.

I'm too much of a mystery novel fan to NOT be interested in this...
What would be your position on alignment? I've got a few sources of possible inspiration, but one of them is a detective character that makes Sherlock Holmes look positively benevolent and I need to know whether or not I should discard that route from the outset.
