The Prince of Heston needs your help! A handful of adventurers are needed to help solve the mystery of the Saltaire disappearances! Enlist today!

The story goes something like this:

This is the City of Heston. The City of Heston is divided into several wards, or districts. These Districts hold certain facilities, social classes, that Kind of stuff. One holds most of the Schooling, another holds most of the Fishing and dock stuff, while another is responsible for central government. Each District is "Governed" by a noble or other such person with considerable political power. These people would handle petitions, small time court hearings, and if need be, would talk directly to the King or Prince in the Central Ward.

As of now, the King of Heston is currently away on a diplomatic mission and the Prince is left to run the city for a short while.

For this story, we are going to be focusing on the Saltaire District, as the title says. This district is home to many small businesses, commoners, and artisans. About a day after the King left people started disappearing en masse from the district, and within just a couple of days, nearly the entire district had disappeared, and was sectioned off. Nobody was allowed in, and those that came out were frothing madmen.

This is where you come in. You, a moderately experienced adventurer are wanted by the Prince to investigate the district, as well as a few others that had been sent in before you. A select few will be chosen to go in the district, and report any and all findings back to the Prince.



Welcome to my RP. This will be based off of a Pathfinder adventure that I created a year or so prior. Now, you don't need to necessarily know anything about Pathfinder or D&D, just have a basic understanding of fantasy elements, which isn't really a whole lot. Elves, magic, gods, the usual.

I myself will not be playing a specific character, but rather, several throughout the story, like the guys sent in before you, the prince, the antagonist, etc.

You can play multiple characters if you just can't decide on a concept, or if you like playing multiple characters.

As for guns, there will be early guns. Flintlock pistols, muskets, that sort of thing. Most are expensive and hard to acquire, and will take a while to reload, however, they can be quite powerful is used correctly. They can tear through leather, seriously injure those is chainmail, and can put a dent in Platemail. Just know that most people aren't going to have a firearm.

You may play as any non-monster race. I don't mean Centaurs or Minotaurs, but races like Bog Creepers, Beholders, or Chuuls. No, you can't play as a Sandworm either.

As you may have noticed, I have reserved spot in the CS section. As you meet other key characters throughout the adventure, I will post their character sheets there.

How old are you and are you a man or woman.

Are you an Elf? A Human? Or perhaps something in between.

Are you a Ranger? Alchemist? Cleric? This does not need to be an "official" class. Like you can be "Plague Doctor" instead of alchemist if that's what you feel would be better

What sort of Special skills and physical abilities do you have? Are you good at picking locks? Do you have a wide array of knowledge? Can you throw things great distances?


[Center][img.]fontmeme.com/permalink/181209/bddd4ed…
What spells and spell like abilities do you possess? For spells, you need only to list a few prominent spells. As a cleric, it isn't that hard to guess you have a healing spell, or a wizard having some sort of fireball or telekinesis.

Checking in.
My computer died last night. Hopefully I can get it fixed this weekend. Until then, I'm borrowing a roommate's computer here and there.

Hoping to get my computer fixed this weekend (or at least before the game takes off).

Think I've decided to go with an archer type character. I noticed that in the Advanced Player's Guide there are two different builds for such a character, one as a alternate fighter (archer) and another as a monk (zen archer). A zen archer might be an interesting way to go.

Of course, if it turns out there are quite a bit of martial type characters I'd be more than happy to try and fill another role.

There very well might be, I just got hit with some unexpected essays, so I'm going to unfortunately have to drop out. You should check with the gm, though.

@dereken There is indeed room for more. You are welcome to join.

@Tybalt Capulet That's a shame. Good luck on your tests!

As for the first IC post, it'll likely be after everyone has made a CS.

Here's another link to the Discord, for those of you who may join in later.

Thanks @Lord Orgasmo. Im just getting in from work and its 10 but Ill have a character by tomorrow evening (US Eastern) for sure, and a post if I get the okay.. I can go ahead and tell you my character will be a female, mostly like a swashbuckler/sea faring flintlock pistolero rogue/thief, reputable of course.. After all, it takes a thief to know one..

[Is there a better class that Im not aware of? Im 38 and Ive been roleplaying for 2/3 of my life.. haven't looked at a rule book in ages. Im mostly creative literature..

Here is a link to my writing style and how much I put intomy own campaign stuff.. I also have maya 3d and I like to make visual aids when I can.

@Arkitekt Well, this isn't going to be exactly following pathfinder rules, it's just based on it. And as for your class, there is actually a Swashbuckler Class. Whether or not this is what you're looking for is all up to you though.

@Lord Orgasmo Looking forward to this one. I just dropped another one so I could fully commit to this one. Are you going to hve some lore, or regional info, or anything like that going up soon? Also is this going to be strictly story based rp or are there going to be skill points and rolls as well?

@Arkitektit will be mostly story based, but there will be occasional rolling, and there really isn't going to be any "skill points" per se, but you can pick up on a few skills throughout the journey.

As for regional info, that won't matter very much. You'll find out why soon enough. For Lore, I'll make a small lore dump when the time comes. And another one about the city and people in a day or so. If you want more lore for post reasons, let me know.

If you have any other questions, let me know
