I am not accepting any more applications at the moment, as I have had a lot of good quality character proposals.
Thank you for looking.
Over the last few months we have lost a few players, and a couple of others have to take a furlough from the game.
I am recruiting for five or six characters, who will start out as an independent adventuring party (a sort of shake-down cruise) but will then be moved around to work with existing characters.
You start at L3 - but will get to L4 before you join the others.
The game is based on the Paizo Kingmaker AP, although it uses modified Kingdom Building rules. Rather than being based on one huge kingdom, regional development will depend on characters building strongholds and/or developing merchant empires.
Some aspects of the AP have been minimised and extra encounter areas added as and when I see fit. It is a traditional fantasy game -
so Core Races, Core Classes and most of the Base Classes (no gunslingers, summoners or unchained classes) with good or neutral alignments are acceptable as characters.
I like characters to have some backstory - although it doesn’t have to be in great detail. If you want a backstory that fits into the game, and might actually be advantageous to you - I am happy to spend as long as you need working on it with you. Orphan with no backstory, is definitely disadvantageous in this game :)
There are two adventuring groups out exploring and (potentially) colonizing the wilderness now (three when you join them) as well as two thriving mini-states. There is (over the medium term) scope for characters to develop a stronghold, become leader of a religious group, start a business empire, set up a trade house - of just sit that bit out and not get involved. NOTE: There might be one or two people in front of you in the queue, if you want a really good site to build a stronghold.
Currently we are down to a dozen PCs, and ideally want another six (or so) characters, as I like to have three groups with six PCs each. This allows groups to continue playing when characters go quiet for a while or drop out. New characters will start at L3, progress to L4 and will (eventually) slot into groups that contains L5 & L6 characters. The current characters are
Adoven | Rogue/Bard | Head of a Merchant House |
Alisa D'Medvyed | Cleric ... | ... of a lost god. |
Andalon de Lebeda | Cleric (Abadar) | Bishop of Tusk |
Cass Mordane | Bard | Mayor of Tusk |
Domitius | Ftr/Rogue | From a noble House |
Ethankos | Cleric (Pharasma) | Fatalistic …. |
Kendrick Winters | Paladin | Marshal of Tusk |
Kiera | Rogue/Sorceror | Innkeeper |
Marceline | Inquisitor (Pharasma) | Head of a small monastary |
Marik | Sorcorer | Mining Magnate |
Safiya Vallani | magus | Landholder |
NOTE: This is a long slow game and has been running for over four years, and I expect it to run for a good few years yet. Like many long games, posting is generally once a week, sometimes faster, sometimes slower.
This is not a first come / first served process, but will depend on the character put forward and the style of the application. 'Style?' - I hear you ask? TBH, I don't really know how to describe it - but the more I think you are liable to hang around in the game, the more likely I am to add you :) We have a shortage of wizards, so an interesting character with some wizarding abilities would be good, although other classes are also welcome :)
BTW: I enjoy helping make characters, and respond (sometimes in too much depth) to all sort of questions about the game, setting and environment. :)
