1st lvl, 25pt buy, fast progression, max starting gold, no starting equipment that isn't easy to conceal. Keep as much gold as you'd like in reserve to 'buy' starting equipment (it'll make sense later)
need 2-3 players.. . .
Text only.
Friday nights, probably around 8-9pm central.

The shipping lanes of Golarion’s seas and oceans are filled with fat merchant vessels laden with trade goods both mundane and exotic, as well as the pirates and freebooters who prey on them. Under the banner of their Hurricane King, these buccaneers sally forth from that archipelago of lawless pirate ports and anchorages known as the Shackles, plundering the shipping of countless countries and trade consortiums, then vanishing back into the maze of islands and reefs they call home. The nations of the Inner Sea would like nothing more than to end the pirate menace once and for all, but the eternal hurricane known as the Eye of Abendego has thus far shielded the Free Captains of the Shackles from the threat of retaliation. In the Skull & Shackles Adventure Path, the PCs take on the role of pirates, but they must make a name for themselves in piracy, plunder, and disrepute to truly become infamous Free Captains of the Shackles. The most important thing to keep in mind when creating your character is that piracy plays a significant role in this Adventure Path—your character should want to become a pirate, or at least not be opposed to the idea.

I'm busy, so can't join. But, just to confirm for other interested parties: Pathfinder I assume?

I Would be interested in playing in this. however I am new to pathfinder. But have a lot of experience in DnD 3.5 so have a good background in most of the rules. I will be gone next weekend but available after that. Thanks for the consideration.

Still looking? I can get a character sheet up in less than an hour and maybe two more if you want it well flushed out for RP. :) I am new to FG but very familiar with PF.

Tossing up between Pirate-Rogue or Corsair-Fighter

I looked at the players guide as I have never played this AP. :o

I can squeeze in a sixth Joe. We defiantly have players who can help you out with FG.

I personally advise against giving up trap finding, but do what you want.

Think I am going to go with a Sorcerer to give us some ranged fire power. Anything I should be aware of when creating the character? First time pathfinder so any advice would be usefull as well. Although I have lots of 3,5 xp.

Thanks

Don't assume all things carry over in 3.5 carefully read through and (for the DM's sake and yours) avoid non Pazio content. XD I mean if he says otherwise go for it but probably pass your ideas by him for approval if you are unsure. What I will tell you is be prepared for water. The players guide suggest be ready for the pirate/water theme. :D

I would second to be prepared for water, we are already aboard a ship. A big difference for sorcerers from 3.5 to Pathfinder is that they get to chose a bloodline of how they got their magic powers. Some are obviously better and some are more thematic. They range from things like fey blood, arcane blood, dragon blood, etc... This gives your character extra stuff at 1st level, usually a power and a specific class skill. As you level you continue to get bonuses from your bloodline via feats, spells, and possibly other powers. A ranged person would be handy as we are a bit melee heavy it seems, and I foresee ship to ship combat being an important part of the campaign.

Yeah I downloaded PC gen to create the character so that it would be in the right ruleset. Think I am going to go back and take a closer look at the bloodline abilities and maybe find something more water themed. Thanks for the advice.
