Dragonslayers Wanted!
Founded by a famous dragonslayer, the small town of Belhaim has become a sleepy rural community just off the beaten path, a settlement where everyone knows everyone and strangers are the talk of the town.
But when Belhaim's peace and quiet is shattered by the sudden collapse of the last standing tower of its founder's castle, things quickly bloom out of control. Why were there bodies of kobolds amid the rubble? What's the sinister secret behind the strange sounds of flapping wings in the night? And what's happened to local wizard Balthus Hunclay, who's not answering knocks on his door? The collapsed tower had long been an eyesore to the cantankerous old man—could he have had something to do with its destruction? And what of the rumors of strange stirrings in nearby Dragonfen?
Has Belhaim's ancient draconic nemesis returned?

So, after years of not gaming at all, playing here on the boards has definitely given me the itch to start running a game of my own. I debated starting with a small adventure or an AP and after searching the internet, I think that Dragon's Demand offers a little bit of both, allowing characters to possibly achieve as high as 7th level.
A little background: I used to run 3.5 D&D for our tabletop group, but we've all grown up and moved to different parts of the country, so that's not really possible anymore. Though I play Pathfinder now, I've never run a game with this system, so I might need a bit of patience if I make any mistakes.
After a lot of thought, I've decided I want to run this using PF1e rules, with Core classes and races only. I really want to go for a classic game feel. Sorry that doesn't work for everyone, and I know this could be a dealbreaker for some...which is part of why this is an interest check. :) ..also, the fact that I know there is at least one other version of this adventure currently running on the boards. So there's that.
********
- Unchained versions of classes and alternate racial traits WILL be allowed. No occult or psionic classes, however.
- Will be taking 5 or 6 characters, depending on the mix and interest level.
- Characters will start at first level and a point buy of 20. Starting wealth will be average.
- Max Hit Points for first level. Rolled after that, or half, whichever is better.
- Characters get 2 traits and I'll allow a drawback, but will expect it roleplayed.
- No EVIL characters.
********
So, that's my sales pitch. Whattaya' think? Would there be any interest in this?

I'd be willing to allow (1) Archetype (still only using Core classes) per character.
As in, if a character multi-classes, only one of the classes can have an archetype. Nor could you have different archetypes with different levels.
(An odd idea, I thought, but I saw someone mention allowing it in their home game, on a message board.)
Wow. Quite a bit of interest. Sweet.
I'll get to work on the *official* recruitment post and setting the game up. :D

GM Minotaur: Once you have the official recruitment thread up, will you be posting a link here for us?
Yes. :)
Sorry for the delay, which will be a bit longer than I'd like. Real life OT at work is interfering with this launch. Suffice it to say, I'll post a recruitment as soon as I can reasonably set it up and be able to give it my full attention.

Interested. However, I am very familiar with the module. I'm also pretty good at separating player knowledge from character knowledge and very curious to see another DM's take on it. If that's an issue I get it, if not I would like to look at following your concept of classic style fantasy with a wizard. Likely elf, human, or half-elf in a pointy hat and spell book kind of way.

Thank you. Looking forward to it, GM. :)
