DM looking for players for Curse of the Crimson Throne, Mondays at 6 PM EDT (gmt-4)

Hi all, this is a recruitment post for a curse of the crimson throne game I am planning on trying to run on Monday nights. If you are interested, please drop a line here. Ventrilo voice chat is a must, and we will be using regular roll20, NOT google+ hangouts. Basic classes and races only, 25 pint buy, no stat over 16 after racial adjustments. 

Curse of the crimson throne...That's Pathfinder right? Can do. Have had a character concept rolling around in my head for the last few months, and been looking for a campaign to put him in ( Lawful Good Half-Orc Wizard/Eldtirch Knight of all things) Have Ventrilo, but haven't used it since my old WoW days...but I remember it being fairly simple. I'm currently DMing a different game,  IRL but I enjoy playing more. (I play DDO....but I don't think that counts.) Been playing 3.5/PF for about 5+ years with experience with most everything, be more then happy to jump in and take a break from DMing for once. :) 

Just making sure, no stat over 16 after race adj?  As for classes. you say basics...that core only?  or including alchemist, inquisitor, magus and such? Traits and archetypes?

I'll join. Want to make sure as well on the 16 ability points. It will make more sense for 16 before race adj than capping the ability point to 16 after the racial adjustment.

I'm up for it.

you are right Daibin, stat cap should have read no stat above 16 before racial adjustment. Teddy, that's right,core only, but am allowing traits EXCEPT for rich parents. Dylan and Dave, be glad to have you.

Are you still looking for people for this game? I would like to join if it is possible.&nbsp;

Im thinking a ranged fighter or ranger. &nbsp;

Awsome. Sent you a message.

So that'd mean 5:00 EST, right? Just making sure.

Or no, 6 pm EST. Either way, I'm interested. :) I'll have to download Ventrilo though.

Sounds about right. &nbsp;6-10 gives us a good 4 hour session, witch is a nice amout of time. Any idea on class Rachael? We seams to have a &nbsp;Bard and a Wizard allready.

this group is coming together nicely, and I will be having a meeting tonight to settle out characters and have a meet and greet. Keep you eye on this thread, and I will post a link to the game when it comes time to meet at 6.

Perhaps a Cleric, Druid, or Paladin? Seem interesting classes, never played any of those classes before either. At 6, allright. Okay, how long's the meet and greet?

As long as it takes to get char ready and stuff, but no later than 11.

Might have to leave after like an hour or two however. What edition is being used btw? Because I know a 3.5/4th edition character generator online.

Well, considering that&nbsp;curse of the crimson throne is a Pathfinder modual, and people have posted PF sheets, I'dd say we're playing Shadowrun. :P Jk, but if your know 3.5 and not PF, the transition over isn't that different, just a few minor things here and there. Also gonna post my sheet out in the open: <a href="http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.php?sheetid=592492" rel="nofollow">http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.php?sheetid=592492</a> Summoner/Buffer wizard (Who isn't a huge fan of palidens/religious types but can get along just fine if they work together)&nbsp;

Okay then. xD Question -- Can a Paladin kill? I have a feeling they can't, due to having Lawful Good as their set in stone alignment.

My character is Lawfull Good, and plans to animate the dead. Is that evil if he's planning on using said undead to defend a city of innocents? &nbsp;Alinement is all about perspective. Lawfull Good just means "Doing the greater good for everyone, while fallowing the law." Palidens have a code of conduit, yes, but it doesn't mean you need to be all goody-goody all the time. &nbsp;(Though, if you DO want to play the "Knock-em out" type, there are archtypes available that support that idea of charater: (&nbsp; <a href="http://www.d20pfsrd.com/races/core-races/half-orc/redeemer-paladin-half-orc" rel="nofollow">http://www.d20pfsrd.com/races/core-races/half-orc/redeemer-paladin-half-orc</a> &nbsp;) " Code of Conduct A paladin must be of lawful good&nbsp; alignment &nbsp;and loses all class features except proficiencies if she ever willingly commits an evil act. Additionally, a paladin's code requires that she respect legitimate authority, act with honor (not lying, not cheating, not using poison, and so forth), help those in need (provided they do not use the help for evil or chaotic ends), and punish those who harm or threaten innocents. Associates : While she may adventure with good or neutral allies, a paladin avoids working with evil characters or with anyone who consistently offends her moral code. Under exceptional circumstances, a paladin can ally with evil associates, but only to defeat what she believes to be a greater evil. A paladin should seek an&nbsp; atonement &nbsp;spell periodically during such an unusual alliance, and should end the alliance immediately should she feel it is doing more harm than good. A paladin may accept only henchmen, followers, or cohorts who are lawful good." Course, everything I'm saying is from my own experence. If &nbsp;a GM wants to invent a religion that forbids killing, or modify the paliden code, &nbsp;He/she can do whatver they want.

Erm, I'm sorry, but if you tried to send me a private message, I don't believe I received one. It looks like the group is already full by this point, in any case.&nbsp;

Okay. So. Basically anything for the greater good. Which means... If I choose to be one, I can have them kill, but only for good reasons, for the bigger picture. Got it. c: Though that 'redeemer' type sounds interesting.

Will we be using Ventrilo tonight?

I will say, something has came today and dont know when I will be home this evening. &nbsp; I will get on when I can; just pm ventrillo info

@ Rachael. Pritty much. Think Superman-esk behavior. Killing a monster that is going to attack a town, or plans to cause harm to innocents is fine, but hunting down every one of that monsters mates and children is a no no. Simmlartaly, If you encounter (sentient) creatures, you prolly want to try and talk your way through an encounter, without being the one to draw first, but if they attack, killing in self-defence is fine. &nbsp;Playing Palidens/Clerics are one of my favorite types of NPCs. (And I'm sounding more and more like a DM....Sorry)&nbsp; @ Teddy. I think DM said she/he'd post links and what not in this thread, &nbsp;failing that, each campain has a forum where things like vent info and PC sheets can get posted.

Reading the player's guide, apparently we start out sharing a common objective: "Even before Curse of the Crimson Throne begins, you and the other PCs have a shared trait—you’ve all been wronged, in some manner, by the despicable Gaedren Lamm. The campaign you are about to begin starts as you and several other promising young heroes are brought together to do what the city guards cannot (or will not) do—to see that Gaedren Lamm answers for his crimes, be that in a court of law or at the edge of a vengeful blade."

Oh, there is a players guide? Where?

Ah, I see, a protecting/defending type of individual then. Also, someone who would want to reason before attacking, if possible. Okay dokey. c:

got a break for a moment. &nbsp; looking at 8 for getting home. &nbsp; there is a players guide....download free at paizo

have everyone got a character yet? So far we got a half-orc wizard and a human archaeologist.

Tempted to go with Paladin, giving it a shot.

I'm still waiting for an answer on if you guys wanted me in the game or not. I'm good either way, but it looks like you haven't even noticed my posts. :(

I suppose you can just join into the game when the DM posts the link. o.o

I was totally going to be the healer, too. But if you don't WANT grandpa dwarf keeping you guys alive and buffed....

Lol, Sorry of I've been ignoreing you Skylar....Pritty much, as long as the GM accepts you. With Wizard Bard(Rouge) and Paliden, if you join up as a Clericly-type that gives us our archtypical party of awsome. Right now nothing is happening till we all get on Vent with GM and he/she decides it from there. DOwnloaded this .pdf and reading through it...seams intresting, to say the least.

What information for Ventrilo do I need to type in to link up to his server?

It looks like we have the skill monkey, the glass cannon, and the meat shield roles already filled. I was planning on playing my dwarven cleric of Torag that several people are so fond of.&nbsp;

As of right now, seems like everyone can heal a little. Pally's LoH, my CLW, and wizard's infernal healing. We don't need a "bandage" cleric per say, but a "god" cleric would be preferred.&nbsp;

Not entirely sure what you mean by that.&nbsp;

don't focus entirely on healing, clerics are so much more than just healing. You're not a heal bot, you're a god.

Oh, of course not. I picked up the appropriate intro healing starting feat, but my usual tactic is to stand right behind the heavily armored guy, keep him from getting flanked, and buff the ever-loving snot out of them with Good domain while keeping him standing.&nbsp; I do a little of everything.

Someone you loved was knifed to death in a dark alley one night. You were called to the scene by the Korvosan Guard to identify the body, and as rough as that was for you, you also noticed a ring was missing from the body. Whoever murdered your loved one stole that ring—you’re convinced of it. You’ve done some investigation on your own and recently found the ring for sale at a local merchant. Although, to your great frustration, you can’t afford yet to buy it back, the merchant did tell you from whom he purchased the ring: a man named Gaedren Lamm. It seems likely this criminal is the one who killed your loved one, or at the very least knows who did. The only problem is finding him. Widowed:&nbsp; The murder victim was a lover. With your lover’s death, a part of you died as well, leaving you haunted, grim, and prone to dark musings. You gain a +2 bonus on Intimidate checks. This will be the first, and only time, I take the Additional Traits feat. Is it worth giving up toughness? Probably not. But damn if that does not give Aquor a reason to hate this BBEG, (And, with half-orcness, suffice to say, I'll be fairing intimidating) And yup, everyone can patch themselves up relatively well- (Ish) no need for a dedicated healer, I can start makeing some scrolls of Infernal Healing/Cure Light once we have some money and downtime. (but a Dwarf Cleric is welcome to fight alongside the Paliden in the frount, long as your not one of the optimiseing types.) Suffice to say &nbsp; I'm likeing this party so far. And I think DM will post vent info once they are back on.

I'll just put this out there, then.&nbsp; I am more than willing to play another class that people THINK we need if you guys would rather I do that.&nbsp; I can play a good rogue, a good monk, a good fighter, a good....anything, really.&nbsp; If there is something you guys REALLY want instead of a cleric, speak up.

Whatever you want to play really. Our team comp so far can harbor just about any class.&nbsp;

Eh your fine. None of us want to ask you to play something you don't like. I'm acualy suprised we have a nice balanced party so far (Caster/Tank/Rouge) Really, the only thing we're missing is (to use a 4e term) a "Striker," but I can prepare fireballs if need be. Cleric would be nice for in-combat healing, and yummy divine buffs, &nbsp;but it's far from required...and don't play it if ya don't think you'll enjoy your dwarf :)

I'll enjoy anything and everything, as long as I get to play. To be honest, I would have gone with a fighter or a paladin, but that is kinda already taken (which is just fine, don't worry). My usual go to classes are Paladin, Fighter, Cleric, and Barbarian. I can build a damage dealing class real easily, but I figured the cleric would be the best option, given the makeup.

Then play a darrn cleric, and don't let us bother you :) You'll fit right in. :P

So, it's almost 6. Haven't got any invites yet.

Nothing here either. And I'm just about done with his backstory as well.
