Fair enough, would you be alright just playing it over Discord if we don't have enough to justify getting one? I actually wouldn't mind doing that, I just know there are some people that won't play without a board so I automatically assume a new group wants to have one. If we're fine without one then we can use a simple chatroom for it.
@everyone
Also it's okay if you're new to the tabletop, I can walk you through it. If needed I can help your write up your character sheets too.
Just so everyone's aware I tend to use Pathfinder rules, I have some homebrew stuff I'm going to be posting about here over the next few days of course but there is also the SRD.

It serves as a universal index for all the rules, monsters, specialties etc. as well as **everything needed for character creation**. For those who don't want to put money on buying the Core Rulebook and other essential books, this is the next best thing and I cannot recommend it enough.
For easy reference, stick to the Base/Core Classes when choosing a class:
[Alchemist](https://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/alchemist) –"[Discoveries":](https://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/alchemist/discoveries) (focus on crafting and mutations)

Also for the uninitiated the difference between a Preparatory/Spontaneous Caster is whether you need to dedicate time to prepare spells (usually at the beginning of the day). Preparatory Casters do, Spontaneous Casters do not.
Additional note: If you're experienced enough to try something more experimental, or you know a feat from DnD 3.5 that you'd like for your character then just run it by me. I'll take suggestions, this guide is only for those who need to get acquainted with the game first.
Things like Gods/Domains, Cavalier Orders etc. are part of the Homebrew setting, I'll be posting about those sometime in the next week or so.
