[QUOTE="Malvoisin, post: 3828958, member: 40128"] Hello All, After an extended absence due to real life issues, I am pleased to be able to return to these boards and resume DMing 'The Savage Tide'. After a hiatus of several months, it is understandable that not all of my former players are able to continue, and so one replacement is needed. Currently, the PCs are 2nd level, and consist of a rogue, beguiler, warmage, archivist and barbarian. Clearly, this group needs some divine casting ability, and perhaps a bit more straight up melee punch. Ideally, I'd like to see someone submit a cleric of a martially-inclined deity, or perhaps a favored soul. There are certainly other, more creative, directions one could go and meet the needs of the group, however. I'm open to anything that would help balance out the existing party. At this time, I don't really want to review full character sheets, but if you already have one made, it's not a problem. However, I really want to see an interesting background and personality. I'll be heavily considering how the PC will fit in with the other party members, so this descriptive detail is of paramount importance. Tidbits like preferred weapon, likely feats and spells, or thoughts about future advancement will also be useful. You should also know that I will consider rules material from most any WotC published sourcebooks, but veto power is always reserved. You should also know that I'm not generally a big fan of traditionally monstrous races as PCs. Oh, and no evil alignments, definitely. To help you create a background and become familiar with the setting city of Sasserine, you should definitely check out the [b]free[/b] [url=http://paizo.com/store/magazines/dungeon/issues/savageTide/v5748btpy7t7i]Savage Tide Player's Guide[/url] downloadable at this link. It's an invaluable resource. If several people express an interest in coming aboard, your knowledge of Sasserine, and its inclusion in your background, may just be the difference maker.

Also, at the beginning of the OOC thread there are sections for important NPCs, handouts, etc., that should really help get you up to speed. Doubtless, there are some things I've forgotten, but if I know my players, they'll jump in here and fix things for me. They might even tell you I run a pretty fun game...after the checks arrive in the mail. :lol: I'll leave things open for a few days, probably, unless somebody jumps in and wows me right off the bat. So don't wait forever if you think you might want to give it a go. And I think you know you do! ;) Thanks! -Malvoisin [/QUOTE]
