[PF-1e] Goldmyr's Rise of the Runelords

[writelite]

I worked on a Rogue too. Here are the main things about him:

 

Daelon, Elf (M, 166 y.o.)

Born and raised in Mierani Forest, Daelon became part of a special force tasked with recovering the treasures of Celwynvian. They seldom managed to infiltrate the Emerald City though, most of the time keeping watch from afar - to make sure, at least, no artifact leaves the ruins in foreign hands. When word from Riddleport came that rare elven objects were seen aboard a ship, Daelon's superior was sent to investigate. He took the young elf along, as backup - but also to offer him a chance to experience the world. The trace lead to Magnimar, and - as the rich families were hard to deal with - the elder engaged in a complex game of social graces and intrigue. Meanwhile, Daelon was to take his chances at a less promising approach: A few of the precious objects - some enchanted, butterfly-shaped jewels - were said to have been borrowed to the church in Sandpoint, for the upcoming festival. A generous gift - sign of patronage, or perhaps even personal ties. In any case, if they could secretly mess with it - it might prove to be just the distraction needed to make the recovery of the big loot possible.

Tall and slender, Daelon fits the typical Elf image - except for his long black hair, which he keeps tied when working. His usual serious expression - reflecting focus and discipline - frames a few scars which, when he frowns, darken against the skin's paleness. His clothing, flexible - yet tightly secured round his body, is of a grey shade which changes with the surroundings.

Daelon's self is rooted in the destiny of his people - isolated, hardened by the constant facing of threats, yet with a depth of perception and thought bestowed by communion with nature. Silent efficiency ingrained by training and the prioritizing of elven interests above his own made him a person of few words and limited self-display. (Lawful Neutral)

P.S. Just posted it as an alternative replacement, should it fit the group better. Otherwise, it could be a backup character?

[Goldmyr]

One submission per person, please.

I'm starting to go through the character sheets now.

[Maya Conti]

Just wondering when's the closing date.

[Maya Conti]

Neat, good to know that.

[FatherDondo]

Decided on my traits: deft dodger, black powder bravado, never stop shooting. I just need to finalize my inventory, but otherwise I believe I'm done

After reading the rulebook more thoroughly, I made this new statblock for Tawn. It contains a few corrections for the character, and it seems superior to my previous attempts.

In that case I have added a link to my sheet, in the application

If you add background skills, I'd like for Doyle to take Perform: Keyboards (concertina) and Profession: Cook.

If not, he'll still play the concertina and cook food, it'll just be a tad worse in sound and taste, respectively.

[OneDarkness]

Apologies I must have missed the part about a sheet for the application, if you need it for your review let me know and I can get one done in the next couple hours.

[Maya Conti]

It's Monday now. Now waiting who's going to be in the game.

[Goldmyr]

It was a long weekend. I still have characters to go through. Please be patient.

[Maya Conti]

Oh sorry, didn't mean to urge you or anything like that. Take your time.

[Goldmyr]

I didn’t think you were. I was urging myself because I wanted to at least have the game thread and first post up by now even if I hadn’t finalized the team foster.

[Goldmyr]

Just out of curiosity, is it usual in pathfinder games to post character submissions without character sheets? I've been pming everyone individually, but I suppose it's going to be easier to just do it here. Please put a finished character sheet in your character submission.

In my experience there isn't a "standard" but there are clear trends. It depends largely on the DM and the conditions of the game. Especially notable, it depends on how much rolling is involved in character creation.

Higher level games, with more complicated and time intensive sheets tend to request sheets less. Lower level games tend to expect sheets more.

Games where the DM has people roll for ability scores, HP, starting wealth, or any combination there of rarely require sheets as part of application, those who do point buy are more likely to expect a sheet. Most DMs want rolls in their game and not in the application thread. Oftentimes games will accept a sheet, but don't require it, too.
