ok, for this roleplay, the first few characters must start on earth. they may or may not be racially changed once they step through the mystical gate hidden on earth.

This game will be using Pathfinder for play. so, anything pathfinder, swing by me before you use.
this world is in early stages of tech as we know it, so they will have a few basic engines and muzzleloading firearms until further notice.

I am open to other world suggestions, as the world is pretty much being made as we go along.

character-wise, here are the guidelines I would like followed;
stats: roll 4d6 for all ability scores, reroll all 1s.
character traits: 3 traits, but you may have 5 if you take a drawback.
start at level 1, multiclassing as accepted once you reach level 2.
race and class options: core races and classes are fine, tieflings, aasimars, catfolk, Rougarou, gunslingers. anything not listed, bring to me before you use them.
the first few players get no money (you will see why if you are one of the first).

I want you to post character sheet links and profiles here so we can refer back to them. please post a link to the page so we can find it easier.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The basic story for right now:

some humans from earth have been taken to the fantastic, mythical world of Giavala.
some have changed into other races.
at present, a small war is going on between the two countries of Gerian and Marviliana.
which side will the newcomers choose? will they survive the war?

once you have everything, and it has been okey'd, here is the link to the IC RP:

ok, for those who don't know anything about Pathfinder, it's very similar to D&D 3.5 with a few changes.
I'll provide links for the core rulebook, character sheet PDFs, and the archives of Nethys so that you have all you need to make a character. if you need more help, just ask.

other rules:
1. post at least once a day, and give everyone else a chance to post.
2. no body post more than once in combat until everyone has gone. the GM might need to post more than once.
3. please try to keep this PG. means clean language and no open smut.
4. other common sense (if you have any).
5. do not argue with the GM, what happens after that is your own falt. (get squashed by giant pancakes).

6. anyone inactive for more than 2 weeks with no good reason will be booted.
7. anyone who violates these rules will be booted. (no one likes troublesome players).
8. if I get enough complaints from other players, you might get booted.

Name: Liam Marcus Devi

Gender: Male

age: 19

race: Human

Description: Short Black hair with blue eyes. Standing at around 5’8, has an average build with slight muscle. Typically, his eyes sit in a position that makes him look tired no matter how much sleep he gets. Typically, with a mindset of work smarter not harder he is often cutting corners in an attempt to make things “easy”. This has caused him to do light exercise and stay in decent shape. While he likes things easy he does not enjoy lying to people since it always seems to cause more “work” for himself in keeping up with the deception. Typically sticks to wear a simple T-shirt, Jeans, hoodie, and basic track shoes.

Character Sheet: So I am newer to these dice based ones. I am able to run stats on this site but as for class and stuff would it be possible to pick a class from after my character enters the world and decides what he wants to do? Is that possible?

Stats: 11, 9, 13, 15, 18, 11

Traits:
Broken, not Beaten
You automatically stabilize when reduced below 0 hit points. Once per day when brought below 0 hit points, you can accept 1 point of damage to regain consciousness for 1 round, though you remain staggered and only able to take a single move or standard action.
Careful Combatant
You have a strong sense of self-preservation, believing it is more important to safely extract yourself from a fight that has turned hopeless than to stubbornly stand your ground and risk death—for when you’re dead, you can’t protect the innocent. When using the withdraw action, both the first and second squares of your movement are not considered threatened by any opponents you can see, rather than just the first square.
Crowd Dodger
You spent much of your youth on crowded streets, dodging quickly around and under others. You gain a +2 trait bonus on Acrobatics checks to move through another creature’s space and to avoid attacks of opportunity for leaving a threatened square.
Disillusioned
Your childhood was ended by a great disaster or atrocity that you witnessed. To cope with the horror, you have learned to reflexively suppress all emotion. You gain a +2 trait bonus on Will saving throws against emotion and fear effects.
Hard to Kill
Your strong will to live and spread good combined with your pure physicality makes you a tough opponent to take down. You may have discovered this as a child after a tragic accident or during the course of your first battle. When you are attempting a Constitution check to stabilize when dying, the penalty on the check is only half your negative hit point total instead of your full negative hit point total.

Drawbacks:
Unlearned
Effect: Choose one Knowledge skill. You cannot attempt untrained Knowledge checks with any other Knowledge skills, even if the check’s DC is 10 or lower. If you have access to a library that covers a specific Knowledge skill, you may attempt an untrained Knowledge check with a –2 penalties.

Paranoid:
Effect: Anyone who attempts an aid another action of any type to assist you must succeed at a DC 15 check instead of the normal DC 10 check.

Feats and Features:
Defiant Luck: Benefit: Once per day, after you roll a natural 1 on a saving throw or a critical hit is confirmed against you, you can either reroll that saving throw, or force the creature that confirmed the critical hit against you to reroll the critical confirmation roll. This does not stack with other effects that allow you to reroll a saving throw or an attack roll. You may only make one reroll.
Inexplicable Luck: Benefit: Once per day, as a free action before a roll is made, you gain a +8 bonus on any single d20 roll. You can also use this ability after the roll is made, but if you do, this bonus is reduced to +4.
Improved Grapple: Benefit: You do not provoke an attack of opportunity when performing a grapple combat maneuver. In addition, you receive a +2 bonus on checks made to grapple a foe. You also receive a +2 bonus to your Combat Maneuver Defense whenever an opponent tries to grapple you.

yes, that is possible.
but the stats and everything would need to be done before you enter through the gate
or otherwise remain a low HP non-combatant likely to die easily.

I can help you out when it comes to making a character, it might look like a lot but it really isn't.
and a quick suggestion, we have a sorcerer and a rogue being made, so we need someone that can take more damage and do more damage, because the other 2 of us will only have 8-9 HP XD

I'll roll my stats on this site and link it so I can show my starting totals.

I'll take a look at everything I need and be sure to post it. I do not mind having a bulkier character.

Highland Sniper

ok then

you start out with only the clothes on your back

Quetzalcoatl

Yes no problem at all, also to note with what I just fought with,

If you roll stats on here wait a few minutes to re-roll ones otherwise it will just edit the last post and remove all the rolls from earlier.

Suggest a wait time of 5 minutes before rolling more.

Actually I'll try rolling here and just do it here.

Highland Sniper
01-06-2020, 07:01 PM
ok
great
that is fine
now you might want to look at the character sheet link, download, and edit it and then find a way to send a link linked to it so that I can check it over later
but good job so far.
you can work on really filling it out later

Would I be able to just make a post with the data from the sheet on it?

Highland Sniper
01-06-2020, 07:16 PM
there is a way to do that, yes.
it might take a lot of space though
but as long as I understand what is what, I'll allow it

So I decided that unless something rp-wise changes him I'll start Monk for base level just so I have a fully equipped character. I should have my data finished soon and then I'll read the opener.

I can change class once I get a feel of where he wants to go.

Edited my first post to include the character sheet details.

I will now read the opener and make a post.

Formal Question.

Are we as people being brought into the world just plopping down in the middle of the festival or have we just gotten there a day or two or how long exactly have we been here.

Highland Sniper
01-07-2020, 10:19 PM
The festival just got into full swing, and you, as people, are there to enjoy it. Whether or not you have been at this festival for days or hours is up to you.
As for going to the new world...
That will be revealed in due time

Sorry about the delay I had a family member pass away and as such I am now coming back to distract myself.

Once again I am sorry I did not get a message out sooner.

I will get a post for the IC ready and post today or tomorrow.
