Starwinds is a home-brewed universe, based loosely on old-school Spelljammer with a healthy dose of high tech items, creating an exciting blend of space travel, steampunk type gadgets, and more advanced sci fi.

We're looking for a few experienced roleplayers who aren't afraid to get into character. We're a fairly RP heavy group, with about half our sessions spent on roleplaying and character development, and half spent on combat.

We're using some additional rules from the Advanced Combat and Pathfinder Unchained books, including:

Fractional base class bonuses

Armor as DR

Inherent bonuses

Hex-based combat map and facing rules

as well as a few others.

Check out our character creation and house rule forum posts to learn more about the mechanics of character creation and game play.

Our combat is complex, but not rocket science. You should have a pretty solid understanding of terms like Armor Class, Base Attack Bonus, Flanking, Standard/Move/Swift actions, etc to start.

Currently, we record our sessions for Youtube, but we use voice only for our sessions. Only apply if you are comfortable having your voice recorded for youtube and having your first name used.

RPGs are a bit more than just a game to us, it's a hobby, a way to make memorable stories, laugh and have fun every week. RPGs are a group activity that takes dedication, so if you plan to join us you should be dedicated to attending and participating every week. No-shows, special one-time guests, and flakes need not apply. Life happens and takes precedence so the occasional absence is no problem, but please be considerate that other players are counting on you to participate every week.

Lastly, a lot of our players aren't what you'd consider "PC". We don't tolerate any outright racism, sexism, etc but we aren't afraid to curse, discuss adult situations, and speak without filters. Consider this your first and only trigger warning.

If you think you'd be interested in joining us for a session, post a response and answer a few questions listed below. and if we like what we see, we'll set up a time for an interview to go over a few more things.

Reponse Questions:

1) Tell me about yourself in general and as a gamer.



2) What was your favorite moment of a past RPG or video game? Why was it important to you?

3) What is your experience with tabletop games?

4) The balance of a good RPG rests on three important elements: Exploration, Combat and Story/ Character Development. Which is more important to you?

5) Describe your playstyle in terms of mechanics. Do you prefer to be a healer, fighter, utility guy, no preference, etc?

6) Describe your playstyle in terms of method. Do you like to be the one making the decisions, sitting in the background and waiting to strike, thinking everything through, etc?

7) Are you comfortable having your voice recorded for Youtube and using your first name?

8) What is something in tabletop or gaming in general that you can't stand?

9) Are your comfortable with the mature rating of this campaign, given the trigger warning above?

10) Most importantly, will you be able to commit to a Tuesday 7:30 EST till midnight timeslot every week or as close to every week as possible? If you are not positive you can do this, we will need to discuss.
