I know you said that you're giving the 8 people who jumped in on this earlier first shot, but I'd be happy to get my name on an alt list in case some people drop out! I Really want to try out the new rules, and am particularly interested in the upcoming council oh thieves AP.

I'll subscribe and hang around to see how this progresses.

Notes to Self (and whoever else wants to read, I suppose)

Too early to say for sure yet, but no martial types have been mentioned.

Thinking of a Ranger, which could potentially work in either a wilderness or an urban setting with a little leeway for customization of feats/skills/etc. to an urban setting.

By no means a final character idea, but it has some appeal and the idea is growing in my head even as I speak . . .

Sounds good, I'd be happy to consider you as an alternate!

Hey Mal just dropping by to say hi and welcome back. Yours was the first game I applied to back when I started with the PbP and you were very helpful to a newcomer and had some great suggestions. Good Luck with this!

LOL, I actually do remember that! I'm happy to see that you've been able to establish yourself as a recognizeable presence on these boards. I don't know how much anything I said helped you, but if that's the case, I'm happy to have been of service. Thanks for saying hi!

Hey all,

I just thought I'd give this thread a little bump, and announce that I've decided to definitely run 'The Bastards of Erebus' which is the first part of the Council of Thieves adventure path. So, if you're thinking about a character concept, something well suited to an urban locale would be best.

The PFRPG rules and adventure path module should both be released on August 13th. The free player's guide for the AP might be available as much as a week sooner, according to James Jacobs on Paizo's message boards.

Just thought I'd give a quick update. Carry on.

In all honesty, that is a bit of a worry for me right now. The site has been either frustratingly slow or altogether inaccessible a LOT recently. Obviously, this would put a huge damper on a fledgling PbP trying to get out of the gates.

Well, for now, all I can do is hope they get things straightened out soon.

Just popping in to say I'm still hanging with EN World for the time being, despite the site's server being messed up. On days when I can't get the page to load, or the page times out, I don't tend to spend a lot of time on repeat tries, but some mornings the site is kinda-sorta manageable and I'll be able to get in a post here and there.

I'm feeling a paladin with a greatsword coming on for my character concept. Either that or Layf Orikkson, the half-orc bard I drew up in May this year.

Still definitely interested in this game! Also, a Ranger with an Urban bent is still uppermost in my mind as a character concept.

Just got notification that my copy of the ruleset should ship in the next week or so!

Hey, CB! Hey, Mowgli!

I'm glad to see that there are still folks hanging around and watching this thread, despite ENWorld's technical difficulties.

On the topic of character ideas for this AP, you might consider looking over this thread over on Paizo's site. There are a few interesting bits of info regarding the setting and whether certain classes are or are not a good fit. Just a thought.

I am trying to remember, does PFRPG have swashbucklers?

Thinking of a rogue...possibly aiming for rogue/fighter MC later.

Unless someone dibbed that already, in which case I might go Ranger or...um...well, I'll think of something. Hmm! Or a cleric even.

I don't think so, at least not in terms of a base class ala the one from WotC. More likely, this is something that would appear in a future supplement. But, we'll have to wait until the rulebook hits to know for sure.

edit: Scott, you may be interested in The Tome of Secrets from Adamant Entertainment. It appears to have exactly what you're asking about!

Thanks, Malvoisin. (Can I call you Mal, by the way?) Looks like the Ranger idea has some merit . . .

Well things seem to be getting better for EnWorld but not for the games I was in

I humbly request permission to become an alternate and will be grateful just for that. I have read a little of the beta rules and plan in getting the book once released to add to my collection of dust gathers. I will go now and look into the background of this adventure and think on a character concept please let me know if you would like it posted.

No dibs have been called by anyone, Shayuri. Feel free to be thinking up a rogue...or anything else that you'd like.

HolyMan, thanks for posting! I would be happy to consider you as an alternate for the game, so if you'd like to explore ideas for a character concept, you're welcome to do so. However, I'd ask that you not post anything detailed at this time, because recruiting has not even officially begun (waiting on the AP player's guide for that). Thanks!

Sounds like we've got plenty of martial types so far, paladin, ranger, rogue, etc. Seems like we could use some magic support then. I've got a gnome sorcerer with the fey bloodline in mind. I'm also up for playing a cleric (though I know two others have expressed interest as well). I get the feeling Turn Outsider will be particularly handy in this AP!
