As the tital implies, I want to know if people are interested in doing a game of RotR where everyone plays a vanilla Cleric (all paizo races, golarion gods).
If people are interested, I will try to get this going after my broken arm heals and I can type with two hands again (1-3 weeks, according to the doc)
Hmm. Even though I'm already in a RotR campaign, the thought of playing in an all-cleric campaign sounds interesting. Are you thinking doing away with multi-classing entirely? And by vanilla cleric, do you mean excluding archetypes? I would be interested in submitting a good-timing cleric of Cayden Cailean.
Good i would think, considering the AP. I am very interested, especially if archetypes are allowed, i have an idea for a cleric i want to build.
After further contemplation, I have decided that archetypes and prestige and multiclassing would be allowed.
This is very interesting to me too! I've been thinking a lot about the ramifications of a world with multiple dieties that are, for the most part, undeniable. I would love the chance to finally get to play a whip-wielding Calistria devout or a Follower of Desna!
Also interested. Clerics are my favorite class, and I have never been able to play Rise, just run it.
Would you consider 3pp archetypes?
Rise of the Runelords.
Possibly allow 3pp archetypes
Oh man sooo interested but I am running it so I'll pass so as to not potentially take a spot from someone who has never played or run before but I do love the idea. Lots of interesting ideas for PbP you have LegitGM!
Oh, I am 100% down. Trying to fill the traditional roles using clerics is awesome. My first thought is a human lcleric of Erastil. He can use a lobgbow and function similarly to a ranger.
If not I'd happily play a dwarf Torag cleric with a big old hammer.
Man and with the opening of the Sandpoint Cathedral it's the perfect excuse for a lot of different faiths to be there.
Sorry to hear about the broken arm.
This sounds interesting. I could definitely go with this. With all clerics, we won't need anybody to be a straight healbot. Lots of options there.
I would suggest one limit and one expansion. I'd say that all multiclassing has to be divine classes or archetypes connected with the divine or your specific god. I'd also let people play any divine class. Let's give the warpriests, oracles, and inquisitors some love.

I hear you, though once you bring in the other divine casters, that kind of defeats the purpose of the original idea, no?

I suppose it depends on the intent of "cleric." If the goal was to have a team of highly devout followers of various gods for flavor reasons, then it doesn't deviate from that original idea. If the goal was also for the mechanical challenge of an all-one-class party, then it breaks it a bit.
On the other hand, there are some non-cleric archetypes or prestige classes that would work well here. Sphere Singer, for example, works as a cleric going into the prestige class, but it has more of a bardic feel (and has minor benefits to bards entering into the prestige).
Looking to play a necromancer from Osirion. Should be fun to mix with "good" clerics (he would be neutral evil, if allowed)
That's going to be a tough sell if anyone wants to play a follower of Pharasma.
"No, no! These affronts to everything you and your god believe are on *our* side!"
Dotting for interest. Not sure what archetype or anything yet. Cool idea though :D
Sounds good. I would say you have your answer on if enough people are interested.
I'd be interested in this. I've got a herald caller I'd love to play.
I can totally do multiple tables. Gonna get the build rules up here asap.
I'd be down to do Rise with nothing but clerics. I'd either want to do an elder mythos cultist or a priest of alseta.

Devout Pilgram Cleric of desna, focused on buffing the party with bit of luck and touch of good, but having a decent charisma for channeling and to use divine fighting technique: Desna to throw starknives. I like it.

Okay... here goes.
Pt Buy: 20 points
Races: Any paizo
Classes: 1st level Cleric or Paizo Cleric Archetype.
Multiclassing: Can multiclass into divine classes (paladin, inquisitor, oracle, and warpriest, for example) normally or variant (All people of same type will be together, so specify if you plan on variant multiclassing). All other multiclassing must be justified (i.e. someone harms you and you are angry about it, you may take a level in Barb for the Rage)
Skills: Background skills.
Starting balance: 150 gp, and an inherited item worth no more than $1000 gp.
Feats: all Paizo.
Traits: usual 2 at first level, may take a drawback for a 3rd trait.
Alignments: any justifiable. Will try to clump similarly aligned characters.
Equipment: Any paizo.
Presenting Kyral Rinshar, Devout Pilgrim(Varisian Pilgrim) Cleric of Desna, local to sandpoint. I have played a decent chunk of the first book, but dont know anything past that.
Allow me to present Rooke Xandarian, cleric of Cayden Cailean. He's here in Sandpoint to help deliver some Deverin Ale from Kaer Maga. I intend to have Rooke take the Divine Scion prestige class around 5th level.
Sounds like an interesting premise. I'll have a ponder but I'm currently torn between an Ecclesitheurge of Pharasma, a neutral follower of her aspect as the last remaining source of prophesy, or a vanilla cleric of Alseta heading into the Evangelist PrC, to take on some of the rogue-like role of trap and secret door stuff as well as some cool teleportation stuff.
Kyral - does divine fighting technique count as two feats? Also, you can cast any spell on the cleric spell list.
Master Elodin - has to be paizo.
Phntm888 - I'm fine wih you playing, so long as you role play.
Golfdeltafoxtrot here, submitting Dohosa Fate-seer for consideration.
He's a Pharasmin Ecclesitheurge, heading towards the Exalted PrC, primarily focused on Pharasma's fate and prophesy aspects.
Mechanically he's got some good Knowledge skills, and will act as a buffer/supporter in combat.

Phntm888 - I'm fine wih you playing, so long as you role play.
Im not sure about the second ability, but the first part is just one feat. Also, those are spells currently prepared, not known, sorry.
I'd like to submit Ilysaria Zenderholm, a half-elf Evangelist Cleric of Calistria. Her role will primarily be buffing, face skills, and melee support (hopefully she'll be half-way decent at tripping and disarming with her whip, but we'll see). Not really planning on multiclassing in the future (but if I did, it would probably be to Inquisitor).
Thanks!

I've never run, played in, or read anything about RotR spoiler-wise, but I've always wanted to play in it. I'd be very interested in an all-Cleric/divine party.
Hmmm...Elven Cloistered Cleric of Nethys? Rice-Farming Kitsune Cleric of the Daikitsu?
Why is it that with a choice of only one class, I'm having a harder time nailing down a character?...
So, first of all, I'm jealous of your NotW-plug of a name, Master Elodin :D
I also agree with the fact that the limitation seems to make me MORE indecisive. Should I play a fast-talking, money-grubbing Dwarf Cleric of Abadar? Maybe a surprisingly whimsical, wandering Half-Orc Divine Paragon of Desna? A sheltered, bookish Cloistered Cleric of Irori? The options are endless!

In full disclosure I've GM'd the first book of Rise of the Runelords and like many games my group broke up before I got farther. I liked it so much I would love the opportunity to be on the player end.
