I am once again looking for one player to fill in a spot in an ongoing game of the Curse of the Crimson Throne adventure path for first edition Pathfinder.
The game started in October of 2018 and the posting rate has settled down to one every few days or at worst, one post per week unless I have some real life thing holding me back for a bit. We have completed the first book and are somewhere before the middle of book 2. Characters just hit level 6.
Although it's not one of those campaigns where the starting characters are crucial to have around until the end of the plot, consistency is still a very important aspect. This is an urban game taking place in the city of Korvosa, which by the way is currently on lockdown; PCs have established relationships with key NPCs, there's politics and plots going on and a lot of stuff is recurring, harkening back to past things or foreshadowing future stuff. It's just not possible by this point to have a revolving cast of PCs coming and going
Therefore
I am imposing two prerequisite conditions for people joining :
1) You cannot create your own character. Instead, you'll have to pick one of the 3 existing PCs (whose players have left the game) who have been around for a while, who have connections to the world and to other PCs. Those are a male half orc half Shoanti paladin of Torag, a female human ranger/archer who didn't get accepted into the Sable Company and a human Divine Hunter/Roof Runner Ranger with a large ape he rescued from a travelling circus as his companion. You'll get an insight into their personalities as you read how they've carried themselves till now, which leads me to...
2) You must read all the previous narrative game threads so far and get up to speed so you'll have a frame of reference, know what has happened, who you might reach out from your contacts or why person X getting mentioned is important.
Obviously, @chunky04 @frizzol and @SurferOfSaragar are welcome to rejoin and regain control of their characters if they want to.
If you are interested in this game, don't mind running someone else's character instead of one you made from scratch, if you are willing to read all the past stuff and commit to the game long term, let me know either by posting here or via PM.
