Hollow's Last Hope [ORG] - Closed

The plague has come to the town of Falcon's Hollow, and not even the town's priest can abate its wretched course. With the coughs of the sick and the wails of the dying echoing through town, the local herbalist uncovers a cure, but she needs some brave heroes to retrieve the ingredients. Finding the cure means risking the dangerous Darkmoon Vale, infiltrating a witch's haunted hut, and delving the ruins of an abandoned dwarven monastery.

Hollow's Last Hope is a wilderness exploration and dungeon adventure for 1st-level characters, compatible with the world's most popular fantasy roleplaying game. This sixteen-page adventure includes details on the haunted forest and deadly ruins that hide the key ingredients to the town's salvation. Do your heroes have the skill and courage to find the cure in time?

Hello Friends!

My face to face gaming group has broken up, and it has left me with the desire to begin a Play by Post game to get my D&D fix! I have been a lurker here on ENWorld for a number of months, and have observed with interest the community of talented PbP players and DMs 'round these parts. Having learned much from the successes and failures of other games on these boards, I decided it was high time to register a profile and begin one of my own.

To wit...Paizo Publishing is launching a new line of modules under its GameMastery imprint, starting this summer. 'Hollow's Last Hope' is a free module being given away for Free RPG Day on June 23rd. It is meant as a short, prelude adventure leading into 'Crown of the Kobold King.' I am in need of five players to take part in this prelude adventure, which starts at level one. If the short adventure is a success, I'd love to take the party further and run 'Crown of the Kobold King' as well.

I'm looking to run a game which will be well-organized and fast-moving. Combat maps and graphics will be provided whenever possible, to help players visualize the setting. I hope to be able to voice interesting NPCs, and provide ample opportunites for role-playing. Above all, I want to create a shared gaming experience which is great fun for players and DM alike!

I am open to questions regarding character creation and the like, if you are inclined to ask. However, for now, I just want to make sure there is enough interest to get the game off the ground. If I get a good enough response to launch full-blown recruiting, I will explain further how we will go about that process...it will NOT be first-come, first-served, however.

Well, I think that's that for now. If interested, please do let me know. And, if there are any questions, please do ask.

Thanks for your time and interest!

This is what I am looking for. I am interested. I will wait to see how many others join before I begin to ask about character creation. As of now I am thinking Elf Ranger.

There is nearly always interest in a D&D game here. The question is going to be whether or not the players chosen will sustain interest and posting frequency.

I'd like to throw my proverbial hat in the ring, so consider the hat thrown. As for a character concept, I'll probably use either the Halfling Wizard that was selected for another game (a game that subsequently died before it ever began), or perhaps the Human Barbarian I had my eye on.

Thank you, Mellubb and Insight, for your interest!

Now if I can just get a few more people to weigh in, I'll know we have a chance at something here. So, how 'bout it, folks?

I could throw together a Dwarf Cleric. Color me interested!

Torillan makes three, great!

Surely there are a couple more interested persons out there?

Count me in! I'd like to make a human Ranger/Archivist (from Heroes of Horror). Sure, it's not a power-gaming character, but it could be fun

I would be interested.

Whatever I make won't be a power gamer / munchkin character either. I'm tired of those characters.

Hey I am still interested. But I changed my mind on the character. I am now thinking Halfling Rogue. I fell off a caravan wagon and I am currently lost looking for home only now I can't remember where home is. I will come up with more as soon as you would like.
