[Pathfinder or 3.5] PvP Dungeon Crawl (Looking for Players & Additional GMs)

[Chainsaw Hobbit]

I was thinking of running a massive dungeon crawl where at least two parties (each with their own DM) race to the bottom level. They could set traps for each-other along the way, or even fight.

To do this, we will need at least eight players and one other DM.


System: Pathfinder or D&D 3.5.

Player Count: 8 or more. 4-6 on each team.

Style of Play: Dungeon crawl where at least two parties race to the bottom, setting traps for each-other along the way and perhaps even fighting.

Allowed Content: Everything published by Paizo or the Wizards, depending on which edition we end up playing.

Character Creation:

• Backstory: Make your character unique, but don't make a wall of text.
• Experience: Level 3.
• Wealth: 3,000 gp worth of equipment.
• Ability Scores: 4d6b3 six times, put stats wherever you like. If your total result is lower than 65, or you have no stats equal to 14 or higher, you may re-roll.
• Hitpoints/Health: Maximum at first level. Average (rounding down) after that.
• Alignment: Anything is fine.
  

To get an idea of my DMing style, here is my profile:

Name: Chainsaw Hobbit (later to become Earl of Awesome).

Availability to Host Campaigns: Probably available.

Contact Information: Private forum message.

Posting Frequency: Once a day during the week, more on weekends.

Systems You Can Run: Labyrinth Lord, Swords & Wizardry, Blood & Treasure, New World of Darkness, Savage Worlds, Pathfinder (maybe), D&D 4e (maybe), Dungeon Crawl Classics, willing to learn new systems.

Preferred Campaign Types: Classic mega-dungeons, dark faerie tales, psychedelic romps, space fantasies, dark horror, winding forest labyrinths, dream-delves, and assassination missions.

Strengths: I'm good at coming up with fun scenarios, describing things in an entertaining way, facilitating character development, and making things immersive.

Weaknesses: Life sometimes catches up to me, causing me to stop posting for a few days. Also, my writing is inconsistent, ranging from awesome to mediocre. Some people find that I make my games too deadly.

Pathfinder, or 3.5?

[nysisobli]

Either or, I have a firm grasp on both systems, id prefer pathfinder though.

As would I. Pathfinder it is!

What is your DMing like?

[nysisobli]

Lol depends on the group, im pretty open, but i can be strict, and I am always fair. One thing that really yanks my chain though is people who deliberately try to break the game.

[Chained Birds]

Yo, interested as a Player if it is PF. While never a fan of impromptu PVP, if the whole game is all about it, then I'm cool with that.

Showing interest in either a barbarian or rogue; leaning more towards Barbarian.

[Chainsaw Hobbit]

I think the GMs should all collaborate to build the dungeon. I would really like the monster, room, and item placements to make sense.


My DMing style could be said to be distant. I pride myself on my ability to be emotionally unbiased, and not to favor either side. I also tend to make things difficult, but not completely insurmountable. Expect character death to occur at least once.

[Chained Birds]

I doubt you could be more deadly than my first DM. He had us draw from the deck of many things as Lvl 2 characters and it being our first time playing dnd... I drew the Death card twice (One with my first character, the second was with a new one).

I think I'll go with Barbarian for my pick. Can never have too much muscle you know.

[Cdr.Fallout]

Yes.

Oh my, yes.

This is what I've been waiting on. Thinking Kobold Alchemist, mainly because I've already got that unused sheet made, and it could work here.

[Zman]

Interested as a player, let's see what I can come up with

(4d6b3)[5]
(4d6b3)[14]
(4d6b3)[14]
(4d6b3)[13]
(4d6b3)[9]

I'm rerolling that, it was abysmal.

[supernerd]

This is intriguing, I'll have to check over the differences between Pathfinder and 3.5 for creation, but that should take thirty minutes at most. I don't quite know what I'll be playing, I'll probably decide from the rolls:

(4d6b3)[11]
(4d6b3)[13]
(4d6b3)[12]
(4d6b3)[16]
(4d6b3)[11]
(4d6b3)[7]

rolls are horrible, but I'm gonna be a Magic Blooded Kitsune Bard staying in fox form. And I'll be singing. it'll be a bit too feat heavy, but it's fairly necessary.

[Chained Birds]

Forgot to roll

[Chained Birds]

Ren The Sharp, a Catfolk Barbarian whose body changes with her emotions.

I believe she is about complete, though might tweak her here and there.

[supernerd]

i have not the time to adapt to pathfinder, so my fox is withdrawing.

[Barstro]

Posting interest. Depending on Stats

(4d6b3)[15]
(4d6b3)[10]
(4d6b3)[15]
(4d6b3)[13]
(4d6b3)[17]

I can certainly work with that. Now to decide what to be.

[razorback]

Interested. I've dug the sorcerer bloodline concept so I'd like to explore that.

[ZeltArruin]

Interested! Not as a wizard...I play too many of them as it is. Dawnflower Dervish Bard maybe.

Right, so, I'm settled on a Dark Tapestry Oracle, probably Dhampir, maybe Fetchling.

[Pazzo]

With those rolls, I think I'll whip of a Wizard, Oracle, Witch it is!

Are we using traits as an option? And if so, how many? 1 or 2 is the norm, from what I have played.

[Barstro]

Going with Ratfolk witch.

[gr8artist]

So, not sure if you've already decided on participants, but I'd like to toss my hat in the ring.
I've been hoping to play a human bard (dervish dancer), focusing on melee attacks and combat maneuvers. A smattering of spells to boost effectiveness, but mostly a melee fighter with a twist. Honestly, probably not real powerful, but I think it'd be interesting.
Failing that, I'd probably go with an Oracle, eventually taking Sorceror and Mystic Theurge.
