Hi,

I'm assuming that the group for this game will be the six of you.  Please let me know if I'm wrong.


Next steps:

This will confirm that you're playing in this path, and also it will get you on the mailing list.  Once everyone a member, we'll use the mailing list for correspondence.

2. Create your characters.  
Please use the methods described in my earlier email.  Also, your character should be from Sandpoint or nearby (like the farmlands - see the map below) and have ties to one or more of the NPCs mentioned in the players' guide; or if your character is from somewhere else, I will need a story as to why he or she is in Sandpoint (where we'll be starting) and how he or she knows one or more of the NPCs.  I can work on that with you if you like - I'll leave it to you to ping me for input if you need a story tie-in.

The player's guide says you must choose one of the Campaign Traits in it, but I'm going to make that optional for you.

Also, you may want to coordinate character classes and skills between you.  I'm open to anything under the rules, so if you all want to be siblings, that's okay; if you want to all be a particular class, or from a particular family, group or organization, that's fine too.  Or you can just be a group of friends and acquaintances who get together to solve the problem of the goblins with the fireworks (see below).

Additional info: 
  • Max 1st level gold
  • Two traits from the PRD (http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/advanced/advancedNewRules.html - choose a regional trait if you like, but it must jibe with your character background).
  • Everyone gets one Hero Point (see previous link), or take this option:  A PC can elect not to use the hero point system, instead relying more on his skills and abilities. Such characters do not receive hero points, regardless of the source, and can never benefit from their use. In exchange, such characters receive a bonus feat at 1st level.

3. Get Playing!
I would like everyone to be ready within a week, so before Saturday, June 16th.  That should be plenty of time.


Goblins and Fireworks
Recently the Goblins of Brinestump Marsh have got their hands on some fireworks, and have been using them to scare horses and attack caravans on the Lost Coast Road which heads to Magnamar and goes right past the Brinestump Marsh.  Nobody has done anything about it yet, but mayor has declared: "The town of Sandpoint will pay 10 gp for every relatively fresh goblin ear delivered to the town hall—with an additional reward of 300 gp for the group who can bring in the head of the Licktoads’ leader, Chief Gutwad."   [Aside: my character Poog in We Be Goblins was just about to marry Chief Gutwad's daughter as that module ended :-) ]

Here is a map of what you know about the area if you grew up in or around Sandpoint.

What is everybody else playing? I'm planning on playing a Shoanti tribesman of some kind.

Since we're starting in Varasia the Rise of the Runelords Player's Guide will be helpful as it describes the people, religions, languages and some special feats with a Varasian origin.

Possible Magus and probable Rogue, too.

As I have previously said, I have a Half-Elf Rogue,

but using the same stats I also generated a Dwarven Cleric, just in case.

Okay, great.

So we have Lorus, Lorund (not twins, no), Nico, Tara done or almost.  Waiting on the Druid and Shan-Shuno the Samurai.

If you can get those done tonight I will be able to check them over, and hopefully kick this thing off tomorrow!

I am ready to go

Worked really hard on my character and Myth Weavers is not allowing me
to get in. I even created another account. What was the other site
we can use and I hope it takes a Mobile post?

Role to hit also has a sheet.  David improved it, but I'm not sure if there's a pathfinder version.

M-W has been having some problems lately, hasn't it?  I haven't seen them but a lot of others have, it seems....

dndsheets have Pathfinder sheets, but you have to add the +3 skill bonus.
