Checking on Player Interest in playing “Pathfinder-ized” Shackled City Adventure Path via Fantasy Grounds on Sunday afternoons. I have an “Ultimate” FG license so players would not need to have one.

Shackled City is a compilation Adventure Path set in the city of Cauldron on the world of Greyhawk. It includes dungeon, city-based, overland, and political themes, mostly centered around Cauldron and its environs.

PCs should be heroes (LG, NG, CG, or LN), will start at first level, and should be linked to the campaign with a campaign trait. A strong sense of teamwork and cooperative character building would also be highly encouraged.

I will probably be using array-based stats rather than point buy. I will consider the possibility of using gestalt.

Game could be either text-based or voip-based with box text for some things. I will likely be taking advantage of Fantasy Grounds’ language programming to “speak” in foreign tongues.

I am looking for a mid-May starting time.

This interest inquiry has been posted both on Paizo Forums and Fantasy Grounds Forums.

Depending on what time you run on that I am interested, I am on Atlantic time so one hour ahead of you.

Tentatively, I am thinking 1-5 pm EST, but I am flexible; I will be taking a banking job in 2 weeks and will be free on Sundays and merely wish to structure it for the afternoons when I know my wife will be working most Sundays

is another Paizo board member's Players guide often used for this campaign. It will give good information on the environs and perhaps stir some ideas about types of characters. I will need to examine and/or tweak campaign traits, I'm sure.

You may post here or on the Paizo boards. If you have access to the Paizo boards, it is my preference that you post there, on this thread:

I prefer to post here since I have email alerts setup here

Name: Saladar Bach

Human Rogue/Brawler

alignment: Neutral Good

Traits heavy hitter (other), Scion of Surabar (campaign), Reactionary (background trait)

Bonus feat: Alertness

Format for Background Rolls

Step One- Homeland, Family, Childhood
(Race) Homeland: 1d100 ⇒ 26 Town or Village: You gain access to the Militia Veteran regional trait.
(Race)Parents: 1d100 ⇒ 47 Both of your parents are alive.
(Race)Siblings: 1d100 ⇒ 1d2 siblings. With two siblings, you gain access to the Kin Guardian combat trait. (2)
Circumstance of Birth: 1d100 ⇒ 100 The Omen: The sages, priests, or wizards of your society decreed your birth an omen of a coming age or event—perhaps you are an omen of promise, perhaps one of dark times ahead. You gain access to the Omen faith trait. (NOT KIDDING I ROLLED A 100 AND DID A SPIT TAKE )
Parents’ Profession: 1d100 ⇒ 19 Serfs/Peasants: You gain access to the Poverty- Stricken social trait.
Major Childhood Event: 1d100 ⇒ 30 Died: You died, or came so close to death that you walked the boundary between the realms of the living and the dead. Having passed from life's domain once, you have a unique perspective on life, perhaps even a greater appreciation for it—or maybe your experience caused you to reject all trivial things, focusing only on matters of true import. You gain access to the Fearless Defiance faith trait and the Arisen story feat.

Step Two-Adolescence and Training
(Rogue) Background: 1d100 ⇒ 51 The Trained: Your early talent for feats of agility and acrobatics garnered you an experienced mentor. Impressed by your natural ability, this mentor taught you how to fight, dodge, and throw. He may have been a master thief, circus performer, fencing master, or swashbuckling pirate. You gain access to the Mentored social trait.
Influential Associate: 1d100 ⇒ 40 The Liege Lord: You became close with someone you were bound to serve, be it a minor lord or lady, master (in the case of a slave), prince or princess, king or queen. Though this person held power over you, she held you closer than a subject or servant. As a result, you're used to dealing with and being close to power, and your name is known among the ranks of the privileged. You gain access to the Influence social trait.
Romantic Relationships: 1d20 ⇒ 4 A few significant relationships

Additional Rolls:
Make any additional required rolls after the above rolls. You may do this in a separate post or modify your post after rolling the above. Do not change the order of the rolls above, as doing so on Paizo’s website modifies the results.
Number of Siblings 1d2 ⇒ 2

Siblings(Roll For Each Sibling): 1d100 ⇒ 77 sibling younger
Siblings(Roll For Each Sibling): 1d100 ⇒ 22 sibling older

Conflict: 6= Negligence ->subject 11= Scoundrel=-> Motivation 2= Love -> Resolution = Mixed Feelings cp 3

No diety

romantic Relationships 4 A Few Significant Relationships: You've tried to make deep connections with individuals on several occasions, but it's never worked out.

relationship with fellow adventurers 49 Romantic competitors, current or former

Character drawback 28 Loyalty: You value loyalty over all things. You treasure the friends, associates, and lovers you have earned throughout the years, and when someone breaks your trust or betrays you in some way, you become utterly unhinged. You gain access to the Pride drawback.

Vhok- Tried replying to your PM, but it says your PM box is full of unread messages. Here was my response:


seems like your game is very full but if you have room i'm interested in playing a crossbow bolt ace gunslinger archtype. human

I'll be picking 6 players for the game, and there will be more applicants than that, but that's why we have recruitment threads- to get a good selection of people. Please do submit your character, after looking at the campaign info tab for details on the recruitment timeline and character creation expectations.
