Darkness Rising (PF1E, NC/EX) [Closed, Check Last Post]

[PixelatedPixie]

A story of chainmail bikinis, sex obsessed monsters, and demons of lust.

It should be noted that my track record as a GM online is really really bad, so while my intentions are always good, you’re taking a risk by joining as it will all probably crash and burn in horrible flames.

  The Premise
I would like to do a somewhat more over the top (this isn’t quite what I mean but I am not sure how else to describe it) smutty Pathfinder (1E) game focused on a group of somewhat naive heroines.  The intent is to have high levels of smut, though not at the expense of plot.  Of course, most games I have run (or been in) have never reached a point of any smut, so it is always hard to balance.  I don't have a percentage or anything like that in mind, there may be long periods of plot, there may be long periods of smut.  You should be comfortable/interested in both.

  The Setting
This game will be set in (a rough version) of Golarion, however with a lewd twist.  For the average person things probably aren’t much different, but for heroines, villains, and big bads there is a much larger focus on sex.  A kind of country bumpkin vs city dweller type scenario.  A more metropolitan person might not stare as a heroine walks by in something out of a lingerie catalogue (well, they might stare as well), but a country type who has never been more than ten miles from home probably would be shocked. 

My hope is to capture the feeling of a new heroine not necessarily realizing how lewd the world really is, and slowly having the veil lifted from her eyes. 

For a low level character things may not be much different from normal, other than that the monsters are more interested in getting into their pants than cutting of their heads.  As the characters get higher in level they will begin to encounter magical armour that is strangely revealing, dark rituals that always seem to involve a sexual component, and other over the top (hentai style maybe?) tropes. 

  The Plot
The group have been sent by the Pathfinder Society (note, I am not doing anything with the organized play stuff, I am just using them as a way to bring the group together) to investigate rumours that a Bandit Lord in the Stolen Lands is attempting some profane ritual.  They arrive to find a land consumed by darkness.

Note: I will be drawing inspiration from Kingmaker, I am not really planning to do Kingmaker.  It might swing in that direction if enough people desire, but it isn’t promised or intended.  However I would like to use 3.0s (?) Stronghold Builder’s Guidebook that I stumbled upon while cleaning, depending on how well the rules translate.

My intent is to have a mild survival/horror aspect to things.  By which I mean the characters are dealing with possession, undead, dark gods, cultists, plagues, and so on.  As a result they may have to gather survivors, build a stronghold, outrun hordes of the possessed, etc. 

  The Rules
I will not be using experience.  The characters will level up at specific milestones.

I will be borrowing from other systems and adding a homebrew token system.

Each character will have two tokens, one ‘good’ and on ‘evil.’  They can be used, if declared in advance of the roll, to do the following.
A ‘good’ token can be used to make any one of your rolls a natural 20, but only in a situation where it will result in exciting consequences.  Alternatively, an enemy’s roll (again if declared in advance, which will need to be sorted out in OOC) can be reduced to a natural 1.
An ‘evil’ token can be used to make any one of your rolls a natural 1, but only in a situation where it will result in exciting consequences.  Alternatively, an enemy’s roll (again if declared in advance, which will need to be sorted out in OOC) can be increased to a natural 20.
The tokens will only refresh once both have been used. 
If they are used for an attack, they will auto-confirm as a crit (no second roll required).

The idea is to allow a player to shape the scene a bit.  Either because they envision some epic/awesome result if they get a high roll, or so they can choose when to be defeated.
   
  Smut
This section will probably be rather longer than it really needs to be as numerous times I have gotten into a game and realized that smutty expectations are not the same between everyone.  It’s frustrating for everyone involved if I am intending to run a game with lots of non-con, and a player isn’t interested in any non-con. 

I will also mention that in the application section I ask for some info on your on/offs, this isn’t because I am an evil bitch who wants to make you write everything twice (well, maybe I am, who knows anymore), but because I have found going through everyone’s on/offs is frustrating.  They are inconsistent, some people use the On and Offs tab (but what does try vs like mean?  And when was the last time it was updated?), some people use a thread (again, when was it last updated, and how general/specific is it), some people are fluid depending on the situation (fantasy vs modern vs horror, freeform vs system, etc).  Either way, numerous times I have found what people say in a thread or what sort of game they are applying for don’t line up with what their on/off page says.  So... this is all a long winded way of me saying that while you don’t have to write a blurb on your on/offs in your application, if I go to your on/off page and I can’t figure out what you like, or if it contradicts what I am looking for, I will unfortunately not be giving you the benefit of the doubt. 

Why am I being so restrictive on characters and content?  Because I am being GM, and as a result am running most of the NPCs, so my on/offs matter.  The characters/players are certainly free to pair off and engage in whatever they want among themselves, but if it is going to involve myself and my characters, it unfortunately has to be something I enjoy or at least am somewhat interested in.  I am sure it is frustrating if you can’t find a game to join (trust me, I know, I haven’t found a single group game to join since returning several months ago), but the game isn’t going to work if the GM isn’t interested. 

I will be putting the game in the Extreme section, I will be requiring that players are at least interested in Nonconsensual-Exotic and are willing to tolerate Extreme if it is happening to other players’ characters.  You don’t have to engage in anything Extreme with your character, but it may happen in threads you are a part of.

I will be using Nonconsensual ‘bad ends’ as a replacement for death/defeat.  That is not to say it can’t happen through other methods (traps, spells, etc), but rather that your character generally will not die or experience serious traumatic injury.  I will fully admit that not all encounters will be fair.  I don’t intend for characters to insta-lose encounters, but I do intend to have hard/unfair fights where the characters have to think (or even flee).

I would prefer the nonconsensual scenes are handled somewhere between ‘traumatic’ and ‘ignored.’  By which I mean it shouldn’t be a non-event, but I also don’t want them to be a broken wreck during or after.

It should be noted that most of the character’s sexual partners will be male, or roughly equivalent to a male (tentacles, etc).  I don’t mind occasionally doing F/F, but it also isn’t hugely my thing so will be rare.

As for the rest, and not all of this is required as an on, but it may come up and we’ll have to sort out how to avoid/include it depending on individual preferences.  The list is below. 

Dubious Con: I would like to include scenes where the character has to use their body as a weapon/tool/distraction, is blackmailed, or similar.
Monsters: I intend to include monsters of various types, from the mostly humanoid to the weird.  Strange appendages and tentacles included.
Multiple Partners:  If a bunch of monsters defeat the character(s), it won’t necessarily be one to one.
Bondage:  Ropes, manacles, pillories, etc.
Pain:  Probably on the lighter side of the spectrum, being spanked or hit with a switch.
Humiliation/Degradation:  Being called names, being treated as a pet, slutty/revealing clothes, etc.
Enslavement:  Potentially as a plot as the result of a bad end.
Magic: I intend to use magic spells for naughtier effects, where possible.
Mind Control:  This may happen, but in limited ways to keep things from getting too boring for the player.
Magical Items: Cursed items, skimpy but protective armour, etc.
Body Modification:  With player consultation, I still want the player to enjoy their character.  Tattoos/piercings/brands/polymorphs/etc.
Drugs/Poisons:  Ranging from addictions to a way to defeat the characters.
Pregnancy:  I don’t want to deal with birth or children (with the possible exception of something like oviposition), but I do like the risk/consequences.
Pet Play:  A character being treated like a horse to pull a cart.  A character being made into a human milkcow.  Probably tied into an enslavement bad end.
Corruption/Sexually Breaking:  A character coming to enjoy losing and/or non-con sex in general.
Extreme Content: Animals, undead, etc.
Other Stuff:  Anything I am forgetting or that players might request.

  Player Expectations
I would like to keep the game going at a reasonable rate.  So I am looking for people who can and will post at least twice a week (a post in OOC to say you have nothing to post is honestly fine as well), and who will let me know when they have lost interest.  Obviously life happens, but please do try and let me know when you will be away (when possible).  I am going to try and be a bit more draconian with post rates, as I find that tends to be what kills a lot of games.

I will try to update every 3-4 days.  At a minimum, as life does get busy sometimes, I will update at least once every 7 days.
If a player hasn’t posted in that 3-4 day period I will generally assume their character has done nothing (or, in some situations, NPC them for a post).
If a player hasn’t posted in 14 days (without some notice obviously, if you let me know I will work around any absences) I will remove their character from the game.

Obviously all other standard rules apply.  Be respectful, no godmoding, no metagaming, etc.  If you have issues with myself or another player, please let me know in PM. 

  Characters
This is a Pathfinder 1E game.
All characters must be women (I don’t care what the player is).
It is limited to official Paizo sourcebooks.
The characters must all be of good alignment.
3rd level to start.
20 Point Buy, but one ability score must be below ten after racial modifiers.
Traits can be used, but campaign traits are not allowed.  You can have 2 traits, or 3 traits and 1 drawback.
Background skills will be used. 
4000 GP in gear.  As a note, I don’t tend to worry about little things unless it becomes important.  I am not going to worry about rations, unless you are lost in the wilderness.  I am not going to worry about a paper if you just want to take notes on what someone says, but I would if you want to take a rubbing of a strange sigil.  That sort of thing.

I would prefer characters lean towards the simple.  A human wizard is preferred over a dhampir collegiate initiate arcanist.  That isn’t to say you can’t go more complex, but it may end up being a point against your character if I have to have five tabs open just to figure out their basic race/class. 

I would prefer characters are some degree of naive/innocent.  I don’t mean virginal, but rather they aren’t hugely experience with sex or non-con.  It isn’t as interesting/fun for me if a character has already spent 20 years as a sex slave.

I will give ‘bonus points’ so to speak if people apply with any of the following concepts (this isn’t a guarantee of acceptance, and please only do so if it interests you, but I thought I’d toss it out there). 
Identical Twins:  This would be hard to arrange between players, but the idea amuses me.
Stuck-up/Prissy Noble/Elf:  A person who is always prim and proper, and has very little real world experience.
Fake Honeypot Rogue/Bard/similar:  A rogue, or similar, who likes to pretend she is experienced sexually but is a virgin or not far off.
Absent-Minded:  A wizard/scribe/similar type who is oblivious to the obvious/dangerous and obsessed with the minute. 

  Applications
I am not doing first come first served, and I will lock the thread once I have selected a group of characters.  If the thread is unlocked, applications are still open.  I don’t have a specific time-frame for how long I will leave applications open (either before giving up due to lack of interest or before accepting characters), so if you will be delayed but are interested please let me know.

I don’t want a full character sheet, just a description of what you want to play in terms of a character, their race, background, and class.

I tend to prefer a group of 2-4, I will likely go with a group of 3-6.

I would also like a brief comment on what you are interested in or want to avoid terms of smut, specifically in the context of what I listed.  In addition, please include anything you would like included that I haven’t listed.

[Chulanowa]

I haven't been real big on PF1 of late, but this does interest me!

[Melkart]

I am interested in this.

Not much familiar with Pathfinder but like the concept and I think I can adapt to PF rules.

[Arcanist]

Definately interested in this.
Looking at playing a human wizard with the spell sage archetype.
Shy and curious, often gets distracted with new magical findings and constantly experimenting.

Open to have another player keep her in check, pulling her away from dander, poking things with a stick and generally pressing big red buttons.

I have no limits with regards to what you have listed PerpetuallyAnnoyedCleric. I can definately do a post at least twice a week. Extreme content with multiple monsters with “mind break” is always on on. Difference in size, most definately. Intend to play a 5’ human. Don’t think we will have demons at this level :) pity...maybe at higher?

[SmashingPots]

Consider my interest piqued.

I've little experience with PF, but I'm sure I can get up to snuff with a little bit of research. I'm a quick learner!

I'll have a general idea for a character up later tonight.

[SmashingPots]

Considered playing a boisterous human crusader with an aura of pride and nobility, preaching about her duty to shield others from harm. Though outwardly urbane, it doesn't take long for her true character to shine through: that of a hopeless masochist. While she does truly want to see those around her safe and sound, it's ultimately her masochist urges that drive her to commit "heroic" acts.

Though her masochism is her most prominent trait, she is a kindhearted and caring individual and is often seen as the most courageous member of the parties she involve herself with, never hesitating to put herself in harm’s way (though most of the time, she has ulterior motives). Despite her strength and stamina, her swordplay is utterly incompetent and she often causes more harm than good in the thick of a fight (not purposefully however).

Just an idea. I know that not everyone likes that sort of character, so let me know if it's a no-go. I wasn't planning on having her be a one-trick pony, just quirky. Could imagine some amusing interactions between her and Arcanist's Wizard.

Let me know what you think!

[Melkart]

I'm thinking about making a noble elf woman.

She is a warrior from one of the noblest and most respected families in her kingdom. She is courageous and well mannered but she has that sense of superiority that some elves display in some cases without noticing. In her case she actually notices but it's part of her act becuase it helps her to hide the shameful truth that she has been exiled by her family after one indiscretion too many. Because of this she has decided to journey into the world and fight for justice and truth defending those who need it. This way she hopes to gain fame and honour and with this her family's trust and respect.

Naturally she will keep the nature of her indiscretion well hidden behind a convenient facade of elven honour and grace and with it the fact that she is an outcast amongst her people.

[ArynDA]

I'm definitely interested and have quite abit of Pathfinder experience.
My current idea is a halfling or human (haven't quite decided) Filcher Archetype U. Rogue.

A Super Thief specialized not in direct fighting, but in trickery in the midst of combat. Outside she's always looking for a decent challenge and can act has a face for the party.

Background: She's likely from the slums of some sort, but quickly grew out of them by learning how to steal. Finely honing it by herself for survival until she could buy her way up to a semi-decent living up until she got caught up by the Pathfinder Society where she was released has long as she began working for them. Afterwards she began to get real training and experience working with the guild, but still does enjoy the nightlife and fun of stealing, now for the challenge aspect rather than the money aspect.

Not too terribly good with backgrounds and I do apologize.
Has for Ons/Offs, I'm fine with just about everything you mentioned. Most offs would be extreme stuff like Guro/Scat/Watersports etc. Also not a fan of feet or alot of pain.
Ons would be mostly alot of the things you mentioned up in the post. Mostly Beasts/Monsters/Drugs/Magic/Corruption.

Hope that all helps, feel free to follow up or what have you if needed or if you want more info.

[snowdrop]

I'd love to take part in this, it sounds like a lot of fun and the themes are *exactly* up my alley! ^_^

I'll have to think of a more detailed character concept, but my immediate first instinct is some kind of a noble girl, a princess or something of the sort -- someone who has led an extremely sheltered life and doesn't really know much about the outside world (and what little she thinks she knows she's probably read from books or something, so she has a very romanticized idea of what the life of an adventurer would be. Perhaps she's ran away from her family and wants to idealistically have wonderful, romantic adventures, not realizing what the world is *actually* like and what kinds of adventures await naive, idealistic girls like her... Something of that ilk?

The smut section I absolutely love and the list of kinks is filled with everything I love and welcome My only reservation would be about pregnancy; I don't mind a *risk* of it or *attempts* to breed, and something oviposition-like could be fun, but I've no interest in actually playing out a "normal" pregnancy. Pretty much all the rest, though -- yes, please!

[c0i9z]

I'd like to put my hat into the ring also.

I'm thinking a sort of fighting cleric-y or paladin type, generally high spirited and a bit headstrong, but mostly innocent of the ways of the world, she very much wants to spread good and the worship of her god however she can.

I'm in favour of everything on your list, except for feral animals. I'd especially enjoy body modification/transformation and corruption stuff. Having her slowly reinterpret her idea of worship the whole way, maybe all the way to a healslut, though that is hardly necessary.

I habitually post daily, when there's enough activity to allow me to, so the posting rate is very much not a problem for me.

[snowdrop]

What I have so far~!

I'm not super familiar with the Pathfinder setting (and I don't know how strictly you're planning to follow it?) so I tried to leave any actual geographical details super vague, and I'm happy to adjust anything to suit the game... I was thinking her hometown would be a small island city-state, maybe in Lake Encarthan; nominally independent, but with close relations to Druma, for instance? Of course, if there's an actual suitable canon town, that'd be great too!

I'm also kind of debating back and forth between a bard, and a Maestro Bloodline sorceress... any preferences? ^^;

Name: Eloise Chatelaine
Race: Human
Class: Sorcerer (Maestro Bloodline)

----

The Lady Eloise Chatelaine, or "Little Princess" as the people in her hometown tended to call her, was always a lively and cheerful child. She was the pride and joy of her parents, the rulers of a small, independent island city-state; as well as the common people, who always loved seeing the cute little girl smiling like a little ray of sunshine. Not once or twice was she found sneaking out of the castle, climbing in trees, and charming the townspeople with her presence. And everyone just found her adorable.

Eloise's mother was a former adventurer -- a powerful sorceress who had stolen the crown prince's heart and married him -- but neither of her parents ever wanted to tell her anything about adventuring. Perhaps they were afraid Eloise might get the wrong idea and get a desire to go out adventuring herself -- she had clearly inherited her mother's innate magical power, and the last thing her parents wanted was for their precious daughter to go out to the world and live the dangerous, degrading life of an adventurer!

Unfortunately for them, as Eloise couldn't learn anything about the adventuring life from her parents, she started seeking that knowledge elsewhere... in romantic adventure novels. She would devour every such book she could get her hands on, and in her mind she would build a very romanticized idea of what the adventuring life was like. Eloise bid her time, tended on her courtly duties, only honed her Maestro Bloodline skills by performing in court and charming what noble visitors would come to the island; but in her mind, she had already made her mind: one way or another, she would leave the island and become an adventurer, just like in her novels!

Eloise grew up to be a beautiful young woman, admired for her looks as well as her singing performances. She also grew bolder: she started to disguise herself and sneak out of the castle at night, longing to spend nights at taverns in town and meet sailors and travellers who visited from other cities. Many townspeople saw through her disguises, of course; but they would always humor their Little Princess and let her enjoy the thrilling adventures that were visiting local bars.

One such night, Eloise met a particularly interesting traveller. A dashing young adventurer, an actual Pathfinder of the Pathfinder Society! He would tell such fabulous stories of his travels, his adventures, his exploits, Eloise couldn't help but fawn over them. Still hiding her royal background from this traveller, Eloise decided it was now or never: this traveller would be his ticket to a romantic, thrilling life of adventures! She quietly slipped a sack of gold to the traveller and begged him to take her off the island, and introduce her to the Pathfinder Society. Oh, and she had magical skills too, Eloise eagerly explained to the man; and promptly demonstrated her abilities by setting fire to the table they were sitting at.

Whether he was persuaded by the sack of gold, Eloise's smile and fluttering eyelashes, or the fact that he wanted to get out of the burning building and fast; but the man agreed. That same night, under the cover of darkness, Eloise set off her home island for the first time in her life; ready to experience all the wonderful, amazing, romantic adventures the world had to offer!

I haven't been real big on PF1 of late, but this does interest me!

I go back and forth on systems.  I tend to default to Pathfinder for fantasy as it is one I am familiar with, and one that is reasonably popular and (more or less) freely available.  I've gone with other systems at times but when combined with my overly picky requirements it tends to result in not much interest unfortunately. 

Not much familiar with Pathfinder but like the concept and I think I can adapt to PF rules.

Pathfinder is very similar to D&D 3.5, and there are various SRD/PRDs available with rules and what not.

Don’t think we will have demons at this level :) pity...maybe at higher?

She sounds fun! 

There are a few low CR demons IIRC, but the intent is more the overarching plotline plus maybe reskinning some stuff.

Considered playing a boisterous human crusader with an aura of pride and nobility

Despite her strength and stamina, her swordplay is utterly incompetent and she often causes more harm than good in the thick of a fight (not purposefully however).

She could be interesting!  Crusader as in the Cleric archetype?  I don't necessarily want them too flawed, though a low STR combat type could be fun.  How do you see justifying/modeling her poor swordplay in-system?

I'm thinking about making a noble elf woman.

She sounds interesting!  What indiscretions do you see her as having committed?

I'm definitely interested and have quite abit of Pathfinder experience.
My current idea is a halfling or human (haven't quite decided) Filcher Archetype U. Rogue.

She sounds fun!  I would probably prefer human over halfling, but let me know which you prefer.

I'm thinking a sort of fighting cleric-y or paladin type, generally high spirited and a bit headstrong, but mostly innocent of the ways of the world, she very much wants to spread good and the worship of her god however she can.

Sounds interesting!  Do you have a preference between cleric and paladin?  Any specific deity you have in mind?

I like her!  I am honestly not hugely familiar with the Pathfinder setting either, so am not worried about small errors or keeping things general.  I don't have a preference between Bard and Sorcerer, whichever you prefer is fine.

[c0i9z]

Thanks! Probably cleric would work best for her. For gods, os there a list I should choose from or should I invent one? I'm thinking healing and maybe protection domains.

[snowdrop]

If we're playing in Golarion, I'd assume the deities on Pathfinder Wiki are the ones

I believe Sarenrae is the "basic bitch" goddess of healing; Milani looks to have protection domain too if that's what you were looking for!

[c0i9z]

Sarenrae, then, with Healing and Glory domains.

[Melkart]

She sounds interesting!  What indiscretions do you see her as having committed?

It was a most regretful scandal. Oh, the shame she brought to her family! Those letters filled with such lewd words and notions and not just to one secret (or not so secret as it turned out to be) object of her desires but to three. And one of them was a lady of unimpeachable reputation. Now, it was a well known fact that brave Hildorion is a rascal and a charming deceiver but he is also a war hero and a close friend to the prince himself. Yes, it's true that he is a well known seducer but it is also true that he choses only low class servants as targets of his attentions. Elf women of no honour (and some even dare to suggest that even human females but this is too sordid to be given any credence). That the daughter of one of the most respected families in the kingdom had fallen for him was shameful. That she had exchanged debauched letters with him was disgraceful. And not satisfied with this depravity she had also exchanged written words with two other members of the high nobility. It is true that both of them are Hildorion's close friends and evidence points that it had been Hildorion who had instigated such degrading exchanges. Some would even point out the fact that both Galator the Fair and Ymila of House Belandir are known for being close to brave Hilarion in demeanor and pursuits but both of them are respected members of the nobility and both of them are also close friends to prince Maeglos and so these voices should to be disregarded.

[ArynDA]

I'm more than fine being a human, I can still pick up everything I need from it!

[Re Z L]

Interested in this as well, have an idea or two...

Identical Twins:  This would be hard to arrange between players, but the idea amuses me.
Fake Honeypot Rogue/Bard/similar:  A rogue, or similar, who likes to pretend she is experienced sexually but is a virgin or not far off.

Both of these ideas are pretty appealing to me, though I don't know if anyone else would want to do a twin.  I'm almost certainly going to go for the "Fake Honeypot" idea though--someone that basically cons/seduces people to take their money or otherwise use them to do things for them.  If twins, then both of them could easily pair up to do the cons as well.

For class I was thinking Mesmerist would work best, though Bard is a close second.

Things from your list I like:

Dubious Con: I would like to include scenes where the character has to use their body as a weapon/tool/distraction, is blackmailed, or similar.
Monsters: I intend to include monsters of various types, from the mostly humanoid to the weird.  Strange appendages and tentacles included.
Multiple Partners:  If a bunch of monsters defeat the character(s), it won’t necessarily be one to one.
Pain:  Probably on the lighter side of the spectrum, being spanked or hit with a switch.
Enslavement:  Potentially as a plot as the result of a bad end.
Magic: I intend to use magic spells for naughtier effects, where possible.
Mind Control:  This may happen, but in limited ways to keep things from getting too boring for the player.
Magical Items: Cursed items, skimpy but protective armour, etc.
Drugs/Poisons:  Ranging from addictions to a way to defeat the characters.
Pet Play:  A character being treated like a horse to pull a cart.  A character being made into a human milkcow.  Probably tied into an enslavement bad end.
Corruption/Sexually Breaking:  A character coming to enjoy losing and/or non-con sex in general.

Things I don't like:

Humiliation/Degradation:  Being called names, being treated as a pet, slutty/revealing clothes, etc.
Pregnancy:  I don’t want to deal with birth or children (with the possible exception of something like oviposition), but I do like the risk/consequences.
Extreme Content: Animals, undead, etc.

Things I'm indifferent towards:

Bondage:  Ropes, manacles, pillories, etc.
Body Modification:  With player consultation, I still want the player to enjoy their character.  Tattoos/piercings/brands/polymorphs/etc.

I can explain more, but that's generally where everything fits.  The "extreme content" probably bears more explanation though:  the two examples given aren't really interesting to me (animals/undead), but other extreme stuff would probably be okay (though I think that would probably fall into the "monsters" category).

[MingMing]

Hey PAC, I'd be interested since our last game didn't really get too far.  Any chance I can kind of recycle that character for this?

[helvorn]

I would love to play as well.  I love your work even though it often ends sooner than we might want. 

My thought would be a unchained human rogue.  I'd keep her simple so we can focus on the game.

I love the thought you've put into the introduction to the game.  It is all good work.

Do you want us to put together a character?

[PixelatedPixie]

Since there is a decent amount of interest I will give it a couple of days then close the recruitment thread and sort things out.  I may go a bit above my original intention, but likely in the form of two groups of 4-5 instead of one group of 6. 

Sarenrae, then, with Healing and Glory domains.

and

I'm more than fine being a human, I can still pick up everything I need from it!

Sounds good!

<snip>

I like it!

Let me know if you can find anyone else to be the second twin!  Though it may be a bit tough to sort out. 

Extreme is a bit iffy for me to define (I usually go by the alt-text when you hover over the forum links, but feel like there is probably differing ideas of what should fall under it).  Animals is probably the big one, and certainly not a requirement for anyone.

Hey PAC, I'd be interested since our last game didn't really get too far.  Any chance I can kind of recycle that character for this?

Potentially to some degree, though I don't know that the creation rules are the same so she might have to be modified.

I would love to play as well.  I love your work even though it often ends sooner than we might want. 

Do you want us to put together a character?

I will think about doing two small groups just so I can bring in some of the stray survivors from other dead in the water games I have run.  A rough character outline is all I am looking for at the moment, I don't need a full sheet.

I'm looking towards something nature-y or possibly a Monk-type. Also planning to break up the human monotony with something

If twins, then both of them could easily pair up to do the cons as well.

For class I was thinking Mesmerist would work best, though Bard is a close second.

I'm down to run the other twin.  Go Mesmerist!  I'll take Aether Kineticist for the invisible pocket-picking, and then psychic ability just runs in the family.  What race were you thinking?  My preference is for something with a FCB for both of us, so: Elf, Gnome, Half-elf, Halfling, Human, Kitsune, and some others that don't fit the premise as well.

Mmmm Kineticists 

I was thinking of making a Varisian Human since the Gypsy-esque feel works pretty well with the theme

Isabela from Dragon Age seemed like a good possibility

I'd like to leave out the racial slur, but yeah, Varisian caravaners sounds great to me!  The only question is, are you gonna be a fake Harrow-reader or a real one?  The art looks perfect for the nightingale of the pair.

edit: oh, wait, they're called Wanderers officially, right?
