Hi there,
My name Chris and I am looking to hire a Pathfinder GM to run games for myself
and 2 additional people (3 players
total). Here are the specifics:
1. Pathfinder
2. Adventure Path of mutual assent. Personally, I would like to try Way of the
Wicked or Mask of the Mummy.
3. Saturday or Sunday. Once per week. Start time somewhere around 4 to 6 PST,
depending on the day.
4. Rules as Written. Some very minimal house rules might be OK, but beyond
using Hero Points and some of the Unchained Options, we want this to be RAW. Keeping
things RAW greatly reduces misunderstandings and arguments.
5. Focus on RP over combat (although, of course, it's still a combat game)
6. Allow characters to die. Be a fan of the characters and help them out, but
when the characters really screw up or the dice are just against them, it's
time for negative consequences. Rebuilds to be at the same level and to be
worked back into the story as it makes sense.
7. Focus on fun/comedy/hanging out. Although most of the RPing will be serious
in nature, but there is still a lot of comedy to be had when things go wrong.
8. Show up ready to play at least 75% of the time. 90% or more would be ideal.
If it gets much below 75% for a sustained period, that's not going to work for
us. The players all have serious, demanding jobs and look forward to the game
all week, so it's a real kick to the groin to have the GM bail on multiple
sessions in a row.
9. Due to there only being 3 players in the game, and APs are designed for 4 to
6, players will be beefed up. Probably Gestalt and 25 point builds. We are open
to talking about other ways to keep a really small group alive. It's a delicate
balance in making the characters powerful but not overpowered.
10. Sessions to be 5 or 6 hours long, with several 5 minute breaks and usually
one 15 minute break to keep it all fresh and fun.
11. $20/hour for actual game time played
12. Payments by Paypal
13. Interfaces through R20 and whatever works for voice, usually Discord
14. GM is expected to voice characters, have tokens and cutouts (pics) to post
of the main people featured in the AP, and to have AP-included maps prepped
ahead of time. Dynamic Lighting and special effects are fun, but not needed. If
Dynamic Lighting is used, use the advanced effects on it.
15. GM is expected to communicate throughout the week, although we respect if
that communication is very brief or limited, or he has to say "Hey, I'll
look at it later"
16. GM to respect the players and their choices, but also feel free to put the
players in their place and make meaningful, decisive rulings. The GM needs to
be having fun. If he is not, then we need to change things to make that happen.
17. Respond by Personal Message. Don't post below.
18. See #17 above.
Take care!
This game will require payment to the Game Master at a rate of
$20/hour which will be paid weekly following each session through Paypal.
