[QUOTE="Malvoisin, post: 4032653, member: 40128"] Hello all, At the end of this month, Paizo publishing will be kicking off a brand new Adventure Path, entitled 'Curse of the Crimson Throne,' as part of its monthly Pathfinder publication. I've been discussing the possibilities of DMing this path with some of the regulars on this board over on [url= http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=216099]this thread[/url]. The long and short of it is that the game is going to happen, and I've already got five players lined up to give it a go. Those players are: [B]Canadienne Bacon[/B] as Girri, a Human (Varisian) Cleric of Pharasma [B]Rhun[/B] as Gadeann Fayne, a Human (Shoanti) Duskblade [B]Voadam[/B] as Orman Stahl, a Human (Chelaxian) Swashbuckler [B]stonegod[/B] as Coldan Ciandra, a Human (Chelaxian) Knight (former Hellknight) [B]Legildur[/B] as an unnamed Human(?) Wizard (Diviner specialist) These are five talented players with proven track records of quality writing and reliable posting. At this time, however, I am looking for one more player to round out the party with an even six characters. Hence, this thread. I am asking interested persons to submit a character proposal, of one or two paragraphs. This should be for a first level character, and contain at minimum the basics of race and class, plus a bit of background and personality. Additional detail, such as feats, equipment, spells, description, thoughts on future level progression, etc., would also be welcome. Displayed knowledge of the campaign setting (e.g., the city of Korvosa, the region of Varisia, the campaign world of Golarion) will be very helpful. If the afore-mentioned words are a foreign language to you, I'd suggest checking out the player's guide for the first Paizo Pathfinder AP, which you can find as a free download [url=http://paizo.com/pathfinder/v5748btpy7xpx]here[/url]. In addition to knowledge of the campaign setting, I'm interested in creativity and writing quality. I will also be heavily considering how well concepts will likely mesh with the five characters who have already been accepted into the party. Although I am not asking for complete character sheets, I have sblocked the complete character creation guidelines at the bottom of this post, because that information could be useful in conceptualizing prospective characters. Further information which may be helpful: -The campaign will be largely urban-based, set in the city of Korvosa. -Paizo will be releasing a free downloadable player's guide for this AP late in February. Character backgrounds should be left sufficiently flexible to accomodate any new information presented therein. -I anticipate that the posting rate will be relatively fast-paced, especially during the work week. I'm going to leave this recruting thread open until Friday, and then evaluate all of the applicants. I expect to announce the sixth player sometime next week. I'll be checking in regularly to keep a running tally of those who have shown interest. Invariably, I forget something important when writing these things, so just let me know if there are any questions at all. Thanks! Malvoisin [sblock=Character Creation Guidelines] 1.
