Welcome to the game. More info coming soon.

Here is a link to the Curtain Call Player's Guide if you haven't seen it yet. This will help you re-build your characters to fit the themes of this adventure path.

Since there's three of you, we can either recruit a fourth player, or I can create a GMPC to accompany you, whichever option you'd prefer.

woah, this players guide is more robust that the last one. Lost of info to digest
I'm fine either way. Choose whatever makes less work for you I guess?

Let's recruit! I'm sure there are lots of people that would be excited to try mid-level PF2e

TY for linking the players guide!

I'll put out a recruitment thread in the next few days. It's a busy time of year!

Yeah, I'm almost finished with leveling up. Just need to find time to get in from Pathbuilder to a Gamersplane sheet.

Oh man, pathbuilder was a lifesaver!
Should our characters be level 11 or 12 at the start of the adventure?

Level 12. We're skipping the first section because it's a lengthy dungeon crawl that doesn't add much to the overall story, and would take several months to slog through before the real adventure begins! :D

OK! Than I think I am good to go. Oh, I guess I have to remove my character from the other game to submit it to this one?
Still not sure what 'stuff' a caster in Pathfinder should have. Except for one of these bad boys, lol

Oh! that's a good point. Should we use the Wealth by Level chart for updating equipment?

Yes, please use that to start with equipment equal to a 12th level character. :)

So we get an 11th level item, two 10th, one 9th, two 8th and 700 gp?

So no broom because it's level 12?

Any good item suggestions for a witch?

I think it's what you said OR the 4500gp lump sum to use as you want. Maybe taking the lump sum, GM would allow you to get the broom? Though reading further down, it says the max level has to be character level -1 :/

If you take the lump sum, you can buy the broom if it is in your budget!

Looking through the player's guide, I think 'no', but will there be many 'haunts' to deal with in this AP?

EDIT: The player's guide also heavily suggests combat take a back seat. I'm considering changing out my amulet (which gives resistance against attacks) to maybe the Regalia (which gives bonuses to CHA-based skills and damage output). Do you think that's reasonable to do, given the AP?

You'd probably get more mileage out of the Charisma boosting implement.

There are a handful of haunts and traps but not too many.

Ok, thank you!

EDIT: I think I am good except for gear, and getting my character moved into a GP character sheet! Hope to have that done by end of the weekend.

How limiting would it be to make Yarth huge. I'm considering taking it from large to huge as my level 12 feat, but could be more inconvience than benefit.

My thought in reading the player's guide is with the focus on RP we'll probably be spending a lot of time in interior spaces, fwiw. That might make a huge creature less available. Will of course let our wonderful GM weigh in, just a thought.

Woohoo! Thanks! I'm never walking again, lol.

So far my character is focused on healing, a lot of cold spells, utility/support spells, and a bit of crafting.
I'll finish getting items and be ready to go soon.

I've been working on items today too! Should have it about wrapped up now.

A lot of the encounters take place within buildings where there are tight quarters, so a Huge creature may prove to be inconvenient. Large would be okay, though.

OK, last couple questions
Gloves of storing are 340 GP, and can hold one item, but the Sleeves of Storage are only 100 GP and hold more stuff (or a familiar), what am I missing?
Not sure what to get with the rest of my coin. Can runes be put on clothing or does it have to be armor?
Was thinking of getting a staff, but not 100% sure how they work, or even which one would come in handy.
🤔 maybe I should just invest it all in an airship? lol

Are we allowed to change our background to one in the player's guide if we choose? Are we allowed (or going to) use the persona traits it talks about?

Yes, you can change your background, and persona traits will come up.

The main difference between the gloves of storing and the sleeves of storing is that the gloves let you retrieve a stored item as a free action instead of an Interact action. Whether or not this is worth an extra 240 gp is questionable. :D

You can put fundamental and property runes on clothes as well as armor.

Staves are a bit complicated in how they work. You can find the full rules here.

Ok, thanks. I'm pretty much ready. I may pick up a wand, I'll look them over tonight.

Thanks!!

I've posted the recruitment thread.

Cool, good luck with the recruitment!
Okay, after reading that link, and re-reading, and then overthinking it, I think it does make sense for Bekassine to have the Staff of Healing instead of Marvelous Medicines. (if that's okay with you, I'll update my sheet)

I'd also like to add a Called rune to her broom and another to the staff. And the Menacing rune to her clothing. 😅

All good with me.

I need to add all my feats and stuff to my sheet, update spells, but I'm going to go ahead and submit Horace.

Just need to get my spells done and the character sheet will be ready.

I think Horace is good to go. It took quite some time fine tuning how I wanted him to land, with 12 levels to play with. It's quite different building a character starting at that level, because you don't have to be so concerned about 'getting through' the early levels without certain abilities.

He's going with the Tome and Regalia implements.

I need to fix something though, I think. The Regalia implement gives status bonuses to saves and damage output. The Marshall dedication is redundant as it also gives status bonus to saves vs. fear and dread striker gives status bonuses to damage output. Need to find a better use for those feat slots...
