Game Description:

Estimated Party Size: 4-6

While I love the entire Pathfinder Setting, two particular aspects of the game have always intrigued me: The Kingmaker AP and the Worldwound. So I decided for my first attempt at GMing, I've decided to blend the two together to form Kingmaker: Crusader State.

I'm looking for 4-6 players who would be interested in playing the Kingmaker AP through the lens of forming a support state for Mendev and Lastwall. You would come into conflict with the River Kingdoms and Brevoy, who both eye the unclaimed Greenbelt covetously and, perhaps, bandits and other forces that would resist the idea of another Crusader State being formed. The Church of Iomadae, with cooperation from other Good Deities, would sponsor your efforts— and while the worship of these Gods isn't necessary, a desire to prevent Demons from conquering the world is.

Character Creation and Application Requirements
Start Level 1
20-point buy, only 1 ability pre-racial bonuses can be bought at 18 and only 1 can be bought at 7.
All classes and archetypes.
1 Addition: Fighters get 4 Skill Points and all players may treat either Knowledge Religion, Local or Planes as a Class Skill.
Applications close in 1 week.

Character Resume for Application
Character Name:
Gender:
Age:
Class:
Race:
Deity: (if any)

Background: 3-4 Sentences. Please include: Region of Golarion they're from, most defining moment of character's life thus far (simple as receiving their first sword or casting first spell to as complicated as being a Half-orc raised by Dwarves), and how they were recruited for this mission.

Motivations: 3 Bullet Points.
Examples: • Greed • Glory • Power
or • Redemption • Hatred of Demons • Devotion to Sarenrae

Goals: (3 short sentences)
1 Short-term attainable goal (I want to clear the Thorn River of Bandits)
1 Mid-term attainable goal (I want to become a _________ or become known a great __________)
1 Long-term pie-in-the-sky goal (I want to seal the Worldwound, defeat a Balor, conquer Brevoy etc)

3 NPCs important to your character: 2 friendly (family, friend, mentor, parnter etc) and 1 rival.

That's it, you can do character sheets before or after being accepted.

Game Description

A terrible rumor is whispered throughout Avistan. The Wardstones preventing the Demons of the Worldwound from escaping it's bounds are wavering. The long-standing stalemate between the Crusaders and the Demonic forces will not last forever.

The Church of Iomadae knows the only way Golarion can withstand the Abyss is to take the fight to the Worldwound, to drive this otherworldly evil back to whence it came and find a way to close the rift. But Lastwall and Mendev, the only remaining Crusader states are stretched too thin. Their resources dedicated to survival, within nothing left over to mount an offensive.

A new, fresh ally is needed. One who can provide relief to Mendev and Lastwall. One that can support a fresh Crusade and lead the charge to reclaim the lands that were lost. And since such an ally does not exist, it must be created.

The Greenbelt, the Stolen Lands, whatever the fools of Brevoy and the River Kingdoms may call it; lies unclaimed and unsettled to the east of Mendev and Lastwall. Close enough to provide supplies, trade and vital reinforcements, yet far enough away from the Worldwound to escape its immediate threat. That is where the hopes of the Crusaders, Avistan and the whole of Golarion rests.

And so a new crusade, a crusade of diplomacy, of colonization and of nation building must begin. Brave, wise and noble individuals must be chosen to lead this endeavor, upon which the fate of all resides.

I've always loved the idea of Kingmaker, but I've never had a chance to play the actual AP, so I'm going to throw my hat in the ring here. I've got a neat idea for an Oracle that I've wanted to try out...

sorry Radiant.

My character, I mean character how you want to play the character is up to you, if you have a character driven to be the pinnacle of illusion magic or sword play, great if you can make it interesting. If you want to play a character that is great in a jam, more power to you. I will do my best to make sure that you're never without a chance in an encounter or that you're never without a challenge.

Awesome.

I was under the impression we didn't need a finished character sheet but I don't recall where I read it...
So do we need to finish a sheet or those accepted will have to do it within a day of getting accepted?

Heh. Well, I figure I'm pretty satisfied with the rest of my application, might as well get the crunch out of the way.

Lochmar Lymaneye
Male
142 years old
Cleric
Elf
Cayden Cailean

After he was evacuated from his home in Kyonin, Lochmar looked for support in a bottle of ale. Ever since then, Lochmar has been traveling from city to city, tavern to tavern. However, when a quest with high risks and high rewards quest comes up, Lochmar trains himself in the art of magic, of course following the god of ale, Cayden Cailean.

Money
Glory
Adventure

Go to the nearest tavern
Complete this quest alive
Raise a family in Kyonin

Mulgrath, a Dwarf he met along his travels who taught him the secrets of magic.
Ninvor, a Elven girl he was in love with, but never saw her since the evacuation.
Limlock, his brother, who refused to leave Kyonin and was crushed by the Starstone.

Well, this is my first character. I may need a little help understanding how myth weavers work. I hope you accept Lochmar into your quest :P
