[PF-1e] Blood and Guts

2 more for the fire! Any more last minute invaders?

I've added the Templates to the advert and these do mean you start with 25 point buy and at level 10.

Jaaren got totally reworked after I couldn't get happy with his voice for an RP sample. I'm not happy with the current sample, but my brain is tired and its closing day. If I get inspired I'll change it up.

Good luck all.

[Unforgiven]

My app is complete.

[LeoByron]

We're closed for business. Looks like almost everyone got their app done.

I will be sending out the invites some time during the weekend.

Time to just sit back and crack open a cold one.

As I pondered my finalists for the game, I realized that the stat discrepancy between the +2 CR templates and the Necropolitan, Zombie Lord, and Skeletal Champion was perhaps too great. I have therefore increased the Necropolitan point buy to 50 and the Skeletal Champion and Zombie Lord to 40.

I also want to emphasize that though I may have alluded that those who do not get their 1st choice of template were lower on my list of preference, I am finding myself considering which templates best fit the character than any actual favoritism concerning the applications themselves. Those who are in my top 6 are all very good and it is impossible to decide on the basis of preference. I am instead trying to work out what is best for the character and the game as a whole.

Thank you for your continued patience, I am almost finished my selections. I am waiting on some private conversations to make my final decisions.

[Jacobzilla]

Are the top six in the first page the primary choices then?

Anyone want to fight to the death over it? *already buried a dagger in someone's back without warning*

[LeoByron]

Without further ado, I would like to present:

Come say hello in the Ancient Crypt.

Thank you so much to everyone who applied, it was a pleasure to read each and every one of your efforts, and narrowing it down to 6 characters was no easy task!

For clarity, Characters will benefit from the following Templates:
Unforgiven's Alisha Von Strauss will receive the Vampire Template.
EvilTedzies' Sinadra will benefit from the Graveknight Template.
Preacherwolf's Lady Gwendoline Oakwater will benefit from the Lich Template.
Elanir's Sergius will benefit from the Necropolitan Template.
Tyeal's Aegion Melwasul will benefit from the Death Knight Template.
Ermine's Dao Wu Feng will benefit from the Mummy Lord Template, with a possible thematic modification to Arctic Mummy Lord.

Welcome to Blood & Guts!

Congrats all.

Recruiting Replacements! We've lost a few players since the start of the game, to life and to whim, so I am looking for 2 replacement players! The PC's have learned that 50 years have passed since they were slain by Lord Demetrious and that two "Risings" have occured whilst they slumbered in the dirt. This night, the night of their resurrection into darkness, has seen the advent of the Third Rising and the dead are once more rising from their graves within the cemetary known as Abadar's Loom. Devoid of all worldly possessions, the PC's had to struggle to first escape from Abadar's Loom since a powerful lattice warding the graveyard against undead had kept them prisoner within its boundaries. They succeeded in taking down the powerful relic which powered the ward and unintentionally caused the very third rising which greeted their egress from the crypt which held it. Now the PC's have gathered at the Von Strauss estate, Alisha's father's own ancestral home and the place where she grew up when she was alive. Sinadra, the Graveknight, sensed the presence of his armor there and it drew them to this place where presumably their possessions are being held. The new Players will not be part of the original consiracy and did not die with the current player characters. Instead, the new players can decide whether their characters rose in any of the previous 2 risings, or perhaps even this one! (The first Rising occured 50 years ago, immediately after the death of the current PC's. The second Rising occurred 25 years ago, to the day, and the 3rd Rising started this very night.) Your characters should have some reason to hate Lord Demetrious or otherwise have a taste to join a faction aligned against him. Pure evil might be a perfectly acceptable motivation, but the execution had better be delicious to elevate itself from so mundane a nature! They must also have been separated from their items for some reason and will begin the game approaching the Von Strauss Estate looking for these items. Since the current PC's are on the cusp of leveling up, new characters can start a single level higher than what is presented below, with 210,000 Experience rather than 145,000 (Fast Advancement) and be level 13. They must choose 1 of the templates outlined below, though Vampire, Graveknight, and Necropolitan have been spoken for. This leaves, Mummy, Death Knight, Skeletal Champion, Zombie Lord, or Apostle Kyton as options for new recruits. Note that some of these have a built-in level adjustment so non-Skeletal Champion or non-Zombie Lords will begin with the same experience, but will have only 11 levels of classes to work with. Who wishes to enter the world of darknes and conquer the realm of Strathmoor?
