Two players looking for more players and a GM for a Pathfinder AP! (flexible times)

RedAlvis and are looking for a GM to run any Paizo Adventure Path (I can provide most APs), with a preference towards Skull & Shackles and Carrion Crown. The number of players is of course up to the GM, but small groups are better for Alvis and I, and Al is also super rusty, so we'd need people willing to put up with his effective newness. We're also pretty fond of roleplaying, as opposed to wargaming, and our schedules are both extremely flexible (CST and EST, with no real obligations). We also both have Skype. In any case, I have a character I've been wanting to play for a while, being a Fetchling Brawler (new playtest class that fits what I've been trying to do with his build for a long time). I can of course do something different, but I would enjoy playing the Fetchling very much.

I'd be very interested in joining you guys for any AP. My schedule is a little less flexible because of my work. I am available Tuesdays after 330pm est and Thursdays also after 330 est. Not sure how long you would like each session to run, but I would need to conclude no later than 1130. it ultimately depends on the AP, but I would like to play a switch hitter ranger. I am new to roll20, but have been roleplaying for a long time. Thanks, Shawn

Awesome! If you can, Alvis and I would like to chat with you on Skype. Get to know potential fellow players, etc., etc. Name's same as it is here.

In regards to the post; I am a Pathfinder player and also Dungeon Master. I am a bit new to this whole "Roll 20 system", but have been making campaigns for about a year or two now. Just curious, but do you guys role play via Skype, or do you do text based role playing? Side note: Can't say I have run any modules before, but if you are interested, I have a game ready to go. I am not free on the weekends, but Thursday and Friday are my best days to play.

We've run into quite a few problems with homebrew games, hence wanting to play APs. I have PDFs I'm willing to share for the sake of, well, playing them, and we use Skype for communication, but usually do in-character stuff with text. If you're willing to run an AP, we'd love to chat in Skype, see if you're a good fit for us and our weird characters. :)

Hi Axolmotl, I'd be interested in DM or Player. I'm 'rusty' as well, but consider myself fairly competent at the system. If you're interested in gaming sessions being sometime between 6:30-11:30 EST Mon-Thurs, email me at tersigni(dot)d[at]gmail(dot]com. We can go from there. Pluto G. You've got first dibs on this campaign, of course, having answered first. But if you're willing, I'm always up for collaboration/co-GMing to run it.

Hey I'll join up with you guys on the players list, My times are less flexible but we could work something out.

I keep to the main items and ideologies of Pathfinder, and if there is ever a problem with something in game... I am more than willing to talk about it. The only thing I have against AP is that I don't have the experience in it to give it the respect that it deserves. The only reason that I like the custom games is that it gives GM's a chance to put some creative freedom into it, and sculpt the game around the players that are playing it. If AP is a requirement, Daniel, you may take the role of DM. Side note: I don't know how I feel when players have access to the notes and can give it a glance around for clues. Not accusing anybody, or anything like that. Edit; Give me whatever AP's you wanted to play and I will look them over. I'll respond by tonight if it is too cumbersome.

Hi again, Pluto G. & everyone I share your concerns about accidental metagaming by players who have read APs. I sincerely hope that even if 'Axolmotl and co' want an AP, they're willing to give the GM some creative freedom for this very reason. Also, I take your response as a polite "I'm a lone-wolf GM who don't need no man" decline of the collaboration offer? Either you're in or you're out? My availability is Monday-Thursday 6:30-midnight EST.

@axol, I will shoot you a Skype a little later tonight if that is cool. @Pluto, perhaps you should play in the ap and let Daniel gm then? Also, forgot to mention I am playing a shattered star campaign right now, so if that is the one that ends up being run, then I will bow out.

I wouldn't want to run an AP that people have already played. I personally have only skimmed through the very first part of Skull & Shackles (tried to run it for friends, didn't work out too well, and I also have a terrible memory, so I effectively haven't played it, woo). As far as creative freedom goes, yeah, there's plenty of room within the AP for that. There is a set plot and encounters, but NPCs and certain events are actually left vague enough for the GM to put their own spin on it, from what I've seen of APs. In any case, I have the first part of S&S, if anyone wants to give it a lookover. I'll toss it over via email.

@Daniel T, I have had a co-GM before, and only seemed to need one when I had a group of 12 players. Story later, but TL;DR, the two groups of 6 were in constant conflict with each other, not knowing that the group they hated actually existed. The campaign was hard to pull off, but the stories these people incorporated into the campaign made it that much richer. Would I need a co? Probably not, but I would LOVE input from everyone. I love to make peoples characters matter, and develop an attachment to the story. @Shawn, you are a good middle man. Best of luck to you in your adventures if you decide to bow out. I also have no problem with Daniel being a GM, I love to see peoples styles. @Axol, like I said, send me the AP. Give me a chance to look at it; and I will tell you as soon as possible. Feel free to send it to my email: <a href="mailto:thomas.a.lamp@gmail.com" rel="nofollow">thomas.a.lamp@gmail.com</a> @Everyone, if you do want me to GM your characters. I only ask for a couple of things. No 3rd party content, refrain from min-maxing (It's not fun for the party, or myself. I have had to deal with people that do it for EVERY character and know the game well enough to break them without rocks falling from the sky...), if you are going to be gone (Please tell me, I can more often than not work around it. Give you a side quest in an off day or delay the game so that the party is not upset.), and finally just have fun. I study my players a lot and tend to center the mood of the game around them. If you have ANY problems, please talk to me about them. I am more than willing to listen and love input. Back stories are not mandatory, but I will need PDF's/documents of all character sheets. If you are interested, please feel free to add me on email/skype. Whatever suits your fancy. Email: <a href="mailto:thomas.a.lamp@gmail.com" rel="nofollow">thomas.a.lamp@gmail.com</a> Skype: Pluto G.

After having talked to axol on Skype it doesn't look like we would be playing shattered star anyway. I am good to go so long as the day lines up with my scalability. Looking forward to playing with everyone. Also, is therean online character sheet that we should use for this ?

Also been looking for a pathfinder game here sometime between Monday and Thursday evenings if you guys would like another. More of a player here (have a hard time switching roles sometimes to be a good DM). Up for either an AP or Sandbox or GM's choice. =D PS: I have heard some really good things about Skulls and Shackles though.

Character sheets will be on this website: <a href="http://www.myth-weavers.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.myth-weavers.com</a>

Cool, thanks Pluto.

Okay, so, thanks everyone who's shown interest! I think we've got our GM down, now, being Pluto. He wants to cap at 5 players, so I'd like to do a sort of double-check to see who all's still here and on-board with it, so Pluto can start a game and get everyone added to it.

I'm here

Hey everybody, thought I'd introduce myself. Y'all can just call me Al for now, I guess. I'm pretty excited to be playing with whomever Axol and I can gather. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't pretty rusty, I haven't playing any tabletop rpgs and some time, but I'm confident in my abilities nonetheless. Not to mention I have a good buddy to steer me in the right direction. So, uh, yeah. Pluto G. Hello hallowed GM! I'll have two, possibly three characters ready soon-ish. I'd definitely like you're opinion on which one is preferable for me to play. I'll post links to their sheets as soon as I'm done with them, or you can reach me on skype. :B Also, welcome aboard! I'm pretty stoked it wasn't too hard to find a GM.

Oooh, speaking of character sheets, are we going to be rolling or using point-buy?

I was not in on your earlier discussion of a game (only having just come across this thread) but would love to join you. I have played a lot of 3.5 back in the day and a little bit of Pathfinder. Thus I have not played any of the APs so no worries there. I have played a good number of systems so any piece that I do not know well I can quickly pick up and always make sure to understand my character the best I can before going into a session. I tend to prefer scout/archer types but can go any role, though I do tend to put spell casters lower on the list as I am a bit less familiar with all of the spells - but I can learn them. My catching point is session availability. I am available all nights 9pm+ CST (GMT -6) though Monday and Thursday are preferred. If this will work for you then please let me know and I will work with you to make an effective and interesting addition to your party.

Yes put me down for this one also. =D

Yes, if it is point buy, how many points?

Alright, I apologize for my late message to this board. Been writing some notes for this campaign and some real life stuff. @Red Alvis, it's a pleasure to meet you good sir. I look forward to being your GM. I am pretty flexible with players and can adjust to your style if need be. Also, please feel free to send them through email. Most direct way of contacting me! @Axolmotl, point-buy. 15 points! @Everyone; The group will be up to Axol's and Al's deciding. I am capping it at 5 players, as stated before. Back stories are optional, and I have a little questionnaire to get an idea of who is playing. Things I would like to know: A.) Emails B.) Skypes C.) Character Idea D.) # of Years playing E.) Schedules/Availability F.) What you like/dislike most about tabletops G.) Anything I should know before we start

Axol and Al: Let me know if you would like to have me in your campaign. If you would like more information from me let me know. If I hear an affirmative I will answer Pluto.

@Spazz: We're getting everything all settler with the group, so stick around for a bit, as we may have room for you. @Shawn: Accept the friend request on Skype, please. We're trying to get a chat going with everyone. Make sure everyone's cool with each other before we start.

Will do

@Spazz: Unless you're available earlier, I don't think your schedule will work with the times we've got set up right now. :( If Spazz is unable to play, we're still looking for one more member.

No, I am not.

We've got room for one more player! Thursday evenings seem to be what we're going for, and we're playing Skull and Shackles. Current party is a Fetchling Brawler (with one bard level to start out with), a Sylph Witch, a Human Ranger, and either a Merfolk Druid or Ratfolk Archaeologist Bard (he hasn't decided yet).

I would like to play in this game if you are not full

John, add me on Skype (remiaryn) and we'll give you a test run! Good to make sure everyone's a good fit with each other.

i added you

Still have a spot open. Come one, come all.

Hmm... Looking at what is already made, character-wise, I assume the character generation rules when it comes to races and classes are fairly open? I don't know much about Skull and Shackles, other than it is a pirate AP. I think I might be a bit interested in playing. Depending on what you mean by "Thursday evenings". As for Pluto's things he would like to know: A.) Emails: I use a gmail account, name worldofxayrax B.) Skypes: skype name is oreofox C.) Character Idea: Not sure about race, but was thinking Oracle with the Life mystery (I am one of the strange people who like to heal), with maybe a couple levels in Rogue (never played a rogue, and have been wanting to try one out lately). Typically play Good characters, though have no problem playing neutrals. D.) # of Years playing: Pathfinder, since November 2012. Tabletop rpgs since 1998. E.) Schedules/Availability: not available wednesday evenings, friday afternoons, or every other tuesday evening (but this part doesn't really matter, I am sure, since you went with Thursdays) F.) What you like/dislike most about tabletops: I love fantasy settings, and getting to play an adventurer. Not so much about tabletop itself, but I really dislike flaky people who play for 1-2 sessions then stop showing up (an unfortunate aspect of playing online, I have noticed). G.) Anything I should know before we start: I don't speak a whole lot, being really shy. But I try to get past that when I play tabletop rpgs. If you guys still have an opening, and wouldn't mind an oracle/rogue (and I am not one to min/max), you can hit me up on my listed Skype name.

This thread isn't really relevant anymore. :( Pluto's schedule got too convoluted, so we're currently in need of a new GM.

:( Sorry to hear that. Hope you are able to find a new one. If I had more experience GMing, I would offer.

What time zone is this for?

I believe Eastern Time zone. GMT -5

Yep, EST.

Do you guys need anymore players? A.) Emails: <a href="mailto:maxraybuck@gmail.com" rel="nofollow">maxraybuck@gmail.com</a> B.) Skype:tadposwg C.) Character Idea:I've had this idea for an archer that is really tall and strong but mute so he would carry around a chalk board or pantomime. D.) # of Years playing:1-2 E.) Schedules/Availability:I'd say Sundays and Tuesdays are off but for the moment most days and times are good. F.) What you like/dislike most about tabletops:I really enjoy the adventure and roleplay aspect of tabletops, sometimes I have trouble getting into systems based on franchises that aren't star wars since I sometimes worry too much about breaking canon. G.) Anything I should know before we start:I love talking. [Edit:Forgot to put in schedule]

We only need one more player. Please stop replying with that format, everyone. The GM that required that is gone, and we need a new one.

Sorry just thought it was a nice format and didn't know if you still needed a play aswell as a gm.
