No board games this week, just my D&D campaign. Turns out that a level 12 wizard with a 30 intelligence who specializes in divination had no trouble finding my lost and insane character. Retrieving me was the easy part of the mission. The hard part was the other guy who got dumped into a random plane (in his case Astral). He eventually got picked up by a group of githyanki* who, true to form, had carved a fortress out of the floating corpse of a dead god.
Still not entirely sure what they were trying to accomplish with him, but the rescue was a success.
* Yeah, that's right WotC. We're using them in Pathfinder. Unleash the lawyers. (Githyanki are one of the names, like Beholder, that Wizards did not release under the Open Game License, so they technically do not exist in the Pathfinder universe.)

Background: Born the second son of a noble family, he was raised amongst wealth and finery. Growing up hunting, he is adept with a bow and is a fine fencer due to the time spent with his father’s master-at-arms. He wasn’t the heir so he learned to get by (and get what he wanted) with his good looks, humor and wit. When he was 13 his family fell into disgrace and was stripped of title and wealth. His parents disappeared into poverty and disgrace and his older brother killed himself in shame. But his upbringing served to train him well for the life of a rogue.

And now we come to Pathfinder. I'd heard so many good things about it. I told my players that if we didn't end up playing Burning Wheel that my second campaign was going to be Pathfinder. That's what happened and none of us regret it. Even MistressGeek, who had her doubts (she played 4E once and wasn't a fan) loves it. In fact, she loves it so much she's a player in the PbF I just got going.

Introducing an extra gamenight in the week during the summer we started to play Pathfinder. Next to our main adventure 'Souls for Smuggler's Shiv' we also got a couple one shots in as 'We Be Goblins' and 'Our Lady in Silver'. We found it was a solid system.

So I had played T&T solos, was running one PbF game and participating in another, and had run a few games for the younguns in the family.
But I still wasn't able to hook up with any local gamers for an old-fashioned kitchen table game. I spent some time on "Find Local Gamers" and a few dozen other sites to get some contact names, but still couldn't really get a group together to play. I ended up joining the local University gaming club in early 2011 and started playing in a Pathfinder campaign with a bunch of guys half my age.
I wasn't terribly excited about Pathfinder, having already been turned off by the Red Box and what I had seen of 4th ed. D&D, but I decided to give it a shot. Pathfinder is clearly the most popular system in my area, so if I wanted to game with other people, I had to start playing it.
Turns out, I like it. Kudos to Paizo. It has a lot of what I liked about D&D, but the mechanics aren't too cumbersome and the rules bloat is fairly minimal.
Significant Pathfinder characters of mine:
Egon the Wily, L5 Kobold Rogue, Kingmaker campaign
Nazrat of No Clan, L5 Lizardman Ranger, Kingmaker campaign
Guido Ionez Drascescu, L3 Human Rogue (Swashbuckler archetype) for Pathfinder Society.

What are you playing right now or most recently?
I was recently invited to join a Pathfinder campaign being run of one of my regular group’s co-workers. It’s been fun getting back into that sort of vibe. From a professional standpoint it’s intriguing to see how total newcomers to gaming (the group has two or three) approach a “modern” RPG written and designed in the “modern” style.
I’m also gearing up to run a campaign for my regular gaming group to playtest my STORMlords Urban Fantasy/Action-Adventure setting, which I hope to turn into a supplement at some point. The group’s a little smaller than we’d like these days, but every bit of testing helps.

The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game is a very traditional role-playing game released as a spin-off of the venerable Dungeons & Dragons (3.5 Edition). Released in 2009, Pathfinder has recently become the leading RPG by sales - surpassing even D&D itself. The game features high-fantasy with elements similar to what you would find in popular fantasy novels (Lord of the Rings, DragonLance, Wizard's First Rule, etc). Combat generally takes place on a grid and has a very tactile feel to it - similar to combat from popular boardgames like Dungeons & Dragons: Castle Ravenloft Board Game or Descent: Journeys in the Dark. Being a traditional RPG, it combines elements of role-playing (interaction with the environment and dialog between players and other characters within the adventure) with combat (which has a very gamey feel to it).
The adventure which is being offered up here is called D0: Hollow's Last Hope and is an introductury adventure for 1st level characters. We will be using the pregenerated characters from the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: Beginner Box so you can jump into the action with balanced characters and get right down to playing.
The intro from the adventure:
The town of Falcon's Hollow needs a miracle.
The plague has come to the town of Falcon's Hollow, and not even the town's priest can abate its wretched course. With the coughs of the sick and the wails of the dying echoing through town, the local herbalist uncovers a cure, but she needs some brave heroes to retrieve the ingredients. Finding the cure means risking the dangerous Darkmoon Vale, infiltrating a witch's haunted hut, and delving the ruins of an abandoned Dwarven monastery.
Hollow's Last Hope is a wilderness exploration and dungeon adventure for 1st-level characters, compatible with the world's most popular fantasy roleplaying game. This sixteen-page adventure includes details on the haunted forest and deadly ruins that hide the key ingredients to the town's salvation. Do your heroes have the skill and courage to find the cure in time?
This adventure will take 4 players.

The intro from the adventure:
The ruined siege castles outside Absalom have long beckoned adventurers looking to make a name for themselves. Now an earthquake has cracked open one of these fabled ruins, and its lost mysteries and fantastic treasures lie exposed for the first time in centuries. But the tower's empty halls once more echo with living footfalls, and a new master has claimed the Fallen Fortress as his own. Can the PCs find a way to get inside its shattered walls? What ancient dangers and fresh threats will they encounter inside its crumbling chambers? And will the PCs be able to defeat the current Master of the Fallen Fortress?
Master of the Fallen Fortress is a dungeon-based adventure for 1st-level chararacters, written for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and compatible with the 3.5 edition of the world's oldest RPG. It also serves as an introduction to Pathfinder Society Organized Play (Paizo's constantly evolving, world-wide megacampaign). The adventure involves exploring an ancient, ruined tower and rescuing the captured Pathfinder held within.
This adventure is set outside the great city of Absalom in the Pathfinder Chronicles campaign setting.
This adventure will take 4 players.

Being a traditional RPG, it combines elements of role-playing (interaction with the environment and dialog between players and other characters within the adventure) with combat (which has a very gamey feel to it).
The adventure which is being offered up here is called The Vile Worm of the Eldritch Oak and is an introductury adventure for 1st level characters. We will be using the pregenerated characters from the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: Beginner Box so you can jump into the action with balanced characters and get right down to playing.
The intro from the adventure:
Deep within the forest, an ancient oak has grown huge, twisted and evil. Ages ago, a savage cult haunted these woods and this tree became the catalyst of their unspeakable rites. Below it they carved out a chamber of sacrificial horror where innocent victims were offered to a hideous worm-like god. As the centuries passed, the cult faded into the mists of time, but the twisted oak stood fast, awaiting the day when the creeping evil in the dark below would be summoned once more.
And so it happened that a crazed warrior, a savage berserker who spilled rivers of blood in the north of the world, came in his wanderings upon the great, brooding tree. In his madness he believed the tree whispered to him, invited him, shared with him its dim secrets.
Over the course of many years, the folk of the borderlands have come to know the old berserker as "the mad hermit in the woods." While pretending to be a kindly, albeit eccentric old priest, he secretly scours the forest and nearby areas for human (or humanoid) prey to be sacrificed to the "worm god" that dwells below the ancient oak.
Several nights ago the hermit attacked a shepherd family in their secluded cottage on the edge of the forest, forcing the wife and child to drag the shepherd's unconscious body through the tangled forest to the huge, ancient oak. He imprisoned the family in a chamber below the oak and offered the shepherd to the worm god...
This adventure will take 4-6 players.

Pathinder is, at the moment, the world's leading fantasy role-playing game. It is based on the rules used for Dungeons and Dragons 3.5
This adventure will take place primarily outdoors and will involve investigating a mystery followed by a (hopefully) short dungeon crawl. I favor cinematic combat, so we will use the grid sparingly if at all.
The adventure and I can handle up to 6 players and we'll try to post 3-4 times a week; probably a little more at the beginning as we come up with characters and perhaps slower as things progress. Once character creation is done, it's on with the adventure.
The Elven kingdom has been at peace with the strange faeries of the Darkwoods, but now that peace may be shattered. Recently there have been raids on Elven villages and the raiders have come from the wood. Could it be that the faeries have broken The Pact?
Lord Seran'thur needs to know the answer to that question but he can't enter the Darkwoods without breaking the pact himself. Will you and your stalwart band brave the danger and learn the Darkwoods' Secret?
