Campaign Name: Fireforge
Genre: Fantasy
Game System: Pathfinder (Players don't need to know the system but must be available and willing to communicate regularly with GM during the character creation process.)
Setting: Dryg-Gwra (custom world setting)
Time: 35 Years after The Racewar began
Cast: I am looking for 6 characters, but will flex up depending on the number and quality of submissions
Deadline: Casting call is open through Sunday, March 14th up to midnight.
Character Submissions: Prospective players must submit a character concept and

GM Information and Expectations:
You can be assured that this game is being run by a very dedicated GM. Players will not have to worry about lengthy delays between move updates due to GM inactivity. All game mechanics are handled behind the scenes which frees up the players to focus on their characters and the gameworld. Players must be able to post regularly, two times a week barring RL issues.  (Hey we all have them).

The game will be using the http://rpg-fusion.com website and each move will be a collaborative writing effort. It flows so much smoother than pbEm. The game will have it's own picture gallery for use by the players and the GM. The game also have it's own chatroom available at the site.

Races Available:
Human: Northreach, Nordren, Derugarian, Sundaryan
Bragdwrgans (dwarves) are now playable as the gates to Brek-Tek-Vwrga are open again
Half-Choshu (half-elf)
Choshu (elf): Bri, Ra, and Pe castes are available
Outcast: any race mixed with Dolfanc (goblin races: goblin, hob-goblin, orc, kobold, bugbear) blood. This will be carefully considered and scrutinized in the submission process but not guaranteed so get with me if you are thinking of trying something with this race.

Classes:
Warrior
Ranger
Cleric (world specific)
Druid
Rogue
Bard
Pathmage: All three Circles, (Custom Sorcerer Class) but they are more scattered and don't have the resources they used to.
Paladin: This is the time when the first Warrior of Light helped turn back the Dolfanc and end the Racewar. This is the ground floor period of the founding of the Order.

Social-Political Climate:
The war that ravaged the West is over, but things are still a mess. General Daricus the Blessed, First Warrior of the Light, led the armies that finally defeated the minions of Traugur at the Battle of Atrum on the Queoc Plain in the lands of the Choshu Nation. Pockets of Dolfanc now live/roam in many parts of the West, although they are no longer a cohesive army. Most of the West lies in tatters and there are many areas of lawlessness as people begin the slow process of rebuilding and returning to some sense of normalcy. The Triad of Circles were nearly decimated and the Pathmagi are scattered and few. The Dragonlords of

Northreach have retreated to their Island and peace has come at last. While the Races are no longer at war, there is still a lot of mistrust depending on where you are. People of Nordren are VERY mistrustful of anything with Choshu blood and all magic not cast by one of the Faithful. Sundarya, nearly torn apart by it's own civil war, was able to survive the treachery and the Empress Shal-Ahzharra has begun the slow process of retunring the Empire to it's former glory. Some don't believe the Bragdwrgans tales of why they were not involved, but this is a by person thing, not a by nation. Janus of Beldrem, the Archdruid of the West, has finally returned to the solace of his sacred grove on Derugar, which is now a clearly divided island nation of baronies. The West is a land in tatters that teetered on the edge of annihilation were it not for the sacrifice and bravery of the Stormheralds. It is a new day, however. Verengaard has risen, as he has done every morning, to a land and peoples torn asunder by 35 years of war. Mathern has bathed the lands with her healing light. These are dark days. That is for sure. But the darkest days are behind. It is time to begin the process of building anew...of searching for that which had been all but lost. Hope. Only the bravest, most cunning, or strongest begin to leave the safety of their small corner of Dryg-Gwra. Do you have what it takes be one of them? Are you ready to become part of Fireforge?

All submissions should be sent to paragon@rpg-fusion.com and should include your character concept as well as a writing sample.

I can't edit the OP, but please not that there is an error with the Time part of the game. The game is setin the year 35AR which is 35 years after the start of the Racewar. Otherwise it would be the year 75AR.

I corrected the title.  I'd be happy to correct anything else, but I didn't wanna accidentally mess anything up.

Creators used to have privs to edit their posts, but I can't look into it just now to see about correcting it.

You should have a view and edit button at the top the same as on game pages. It's working for me on this account and this account is just a regular user account so it doesn't have any extra privileges. If it's not working for you we have a glitch somewhere.

 Speaking from experience,

 Speaking from experience, that dedicated GM thing is true. I played in Paragons Dryg-Gwra setting for a couple of years, and it is a detailed, wondrous place that has been given thoughtful exploration in vital places and seems wonderfully open in plenty of others. Exactly what you want when you plunk a character down in a fantastic place.

Good luck Frank.

Why isn't the word 'phonetic' spelled the way it sounds?
