From unable to understand PoW to absolutely drowning in it in one big step.

So my GM is arguing that Vizier is overpowered because they can switch Essence between all their veils as a swift action. He says it's like how an arcanist can change their spells as a full round action, except that Vizier is capable of doing it all day. So he's proposed that in order to change essence between veils you can shift one point as a swift that provokes, or all points as a full round action that provokes. How do I tell him that this nerf is unnecessary without murdering him, causing him harm, insulting him, or leaving the game?

Probably not Alchemist, they're limited in times/day and variety of blast.

Maybe Kineticist with homebrew rules that let you take as much burn as your pool has to increase damage dealt

Probably Arcanist. Potent Spells, hijack some bloodline arcana with Blood Arcanist, and you can make some pretty gnarly blasts that are hard to avoid.

>>46512413
He specifically cited the dragon breath veil and the one veil that increases fire damage as like a better burning hands but doable all day.

Hey guys, I just realized something. I've been trying to figure out how to make the "Phantom Thief" rogue archetype actually playable in a combat since it give up all combat ability. Then I realized it stacks with the "Hidden Blade" archetype from PoW:E.........thank you DSP

Any anons played Hell's Rebels before? What did you think of it and how much of it is urban?

>>46512476

Sometimes I think if a book came out with a wizard archetype that didn't need a spellbook and prepared like a cleric did and a fighter archetype that could hold its breath, climb, and swim all day without spending anything, some people would be more suspicious of the fighter archetype because ALL DAY.

There's just so many fucking things, I don't know how to even choose, and I can't just fully build them all without fucking up the magic of preparing a character specifically for a particular group/campaign. So I'm stuck making all these character skeletons.

If Bushi let me pick my exotic weapons, I would totally do a Prodigious TWF Brutal Bushi with Bastard Swords and/or Falcatas, though. Don't even care that the feat tax is about the same as a dex-build, shit would be tight.

Hey /pfg/, is there anything you can do with a character that has Blindsight 30? I'm trying to think of something, but short of always fighting in supernatural darkness I'm not coming up with anything.

>tfw waiting for ultimate intrigue pdf

>>46513465
Soon, anon. Soon.

>>46513465
Prepare for more disappointment!

>>46513435
What do you mean? What are the advantages of having Blindsight 30? Well, for starters, basically no one can sneak up on you ever, even invisible people. Also, gaze attacks are no problem for you to deal with, you can close your eyes and continue fighting without penalty.

Is Furious Focus actually a decent option for most initiators? While most of the strongest maneuvers are full attack+, there are plenty of single-hit ones that would certainly love the extra damage at the low cost of a single low-level feat.

>>46513480
What's the least disappointing part, in your opinion? The most disappointing part?

>>46513498
That's all defensive stuff though, nothing you can offensively use it for.

>>46513511
It's alright. I wouldn't call it necessary, but if you can fit it into your build and you want to use a lot of single attack strikes, it's helpful.

>>46512925
Pathfinder really isn't designed with pvp in mind-- it's a cooperative game. Classes are (mostly) built with the idea of resource management and taking down non-human foes of varying number and health in mind, while pvp stresses making builds that focus on high-damage, high-initiative characters to wipe out a similarly-leveled foe before they can act.

>>46513511
I'm not really sure full BAB types ever want Furious Focus, actually. It might be okay for a 3/4s BAB character, but I've been thinking about retraining it away on my magus for a long time. I can't imagine being an initiator with full BAB would endear me more to the feat.

I'm brand new to DMing and PF as a whole, but this is hella fun.

You guys know of any low-mid level critters that can swim and hopefully turn invisible? I know it's specific but I want to set up an ambush in the water.

>>46513521

The end. I wanted the fey druid to be good, it wasn't, it was completely the antithesis of what I wanted from a CHA druid. I wanted the magical child to be good, it too was a major disappointment. The non-LG paladin was disappointing, the feats were disappointing. The disappointment actually manifested and punched me in the gut.

Some of the most fun I've had in Pathfinder has been my maxed out Crossblooded fire Sorcerer, using Words of Power. Not nearly at the level of power that a mage in this system can be, but hell if isn't an absolute blast setting everything in sight on fire. I don't even have to think about it, just pick a slot-appropriate fire word, and whichever target words seems most interesting at the moment.

Occasionally, I'll get really fancy and leave behind a cloud of smoke ("fog" cloud my ass) after burning the shit out of everything.

My local GM has been running a pure-crunch dungeon crawl for a while to learn the system. I'm normally not into that sort of game (I prefer at least an attempt at a story and some RP), but I wanted the excuse to hang out with friends that I didn't get to see very often. Literally the only redeeming feature of that game (other than the aforementioned hanging out with friends) was that I could switch out my character whenever I felt like it, to get a few sessions in of all the cool builds I've been dying to try out.

He's decided to start over and try a more story-based game, so it looks like I'm gonna have to stick with one character for a while. I hope he doesn't suck at it, or it's gonna be a rough campaign.

I like to make my 'wands' as pieces of stone, that are then mounted onto a grip, with a trigger, a trigger guard and sights. The completion word is usually "Pewpewpew" and the action is the squeezing of the trigger.

The blocks the spells are cast on, are small rectangles, and are somewhat interchangeable. Identified by a rune and coloration. I prefer ray spells, particularly scorching ray.

These "wands" are masterwork quality.

Overall the whole thing looks like a pistol. Image related.

Any class with a collective lends itself to a leader-like organizer, leaving swathes of coordination in its path. The upcoming Stratego soulknife looks awesome, though I wish dearly it was an archetype, so it wasn't only just coming online at 6th or 7th.

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XZ7YUgvH7vgDqJvJs8vaQYCPV6K6wh8YAbW_ElFUHX4/edit

It's a Soulknife PrC with a collective, telepathy, and the ability to loan out weapons (and, if you have the bladeskills, armour, shields, what-have-you.)

>>46515840
>>46515882
Building off what the first reply mentioned, you want Path of War has to offer; there's an archetype that trades out spellcasting (let's face it, paladin spells are lackluster anyhow) for limited initiating.

Frankly, Cleave sucks ass. You're better off using a strike that grants two attacks than burning a feat on it, and the easiest way to use Two Big Swords is the Stupendous Strength feat + Prodigious Two-Weapon Fighting feat + Two-Weapon Fighting + Thrashing Dragon maneuvers. Trait out of Silver Crane or something.

I should note, this does remove Smite Evil, but you get other abilities that are thematically the same, so you're fine - and if you insist on Actually Using Smites, you can always just take the Martial Training line on a regular Paladin in Primal Fury for giga-smiting action.

And if you're going that second route, you'd better go Nightguard. Nothing like expanding from Smite Evil to Smite Non-Good.

>>46516229
It's stupid to believe gods don't exist in a setting where clerics and things run around.

Where is your proof these things are truly gods worthy of worship, and not simply very powerful beings that demand tribute and give power to others?

Beyond that, how do you prove they even exist outside of divine intervention? You know the difference between divine and arcane casting because of game mechanics, but how do you prove those distinctions within the setting itself?

Just because all kinds of crazy monsters and otherworldy beings exist doesn't mean they're gods and not simply beings that exist in another world.

>>46514618

There is a rogue class that is meant to simulate this, but it isn't all that great. The Unchained Rogue update is better - still not great, but quite handy. If you do not mind having a bit of magic on the side, the bard class is quite good - it is somewhat of a jack of all trades, but it has quite a few tricks related to messing with people, and can easily work for a very decent sneaksman. If you want to use archetypes, consider the archeologist and the sandman - they lose a bit of party utility, but become better at traps, sneaking and the like..

Investigator and slayer can also work, though slayer is more backstabber than con-man.

Lets say that if I was doing an epic level campaign, and I had maxed out a warpriest character, what would my next class be? I would rather not continue as a Warpriest.

My initial thoughts went with an Eldritch Knight instead of a Magus because I really want BAB. I've been feeling sort of lost in this nasty middle ground as a Warpriest where I just feel useless in certain situations, especially when things resort to close up fighting and I lack both attack bonus and damage from my martial weapon.

Maybe one of you guys can help me out. Still a noob at all this.

>>46517652
The mithral-whatever fighter archetype from Lords of the Wild?

>>46517943
Your self buffs should be making up for the difference. Also see if you can retrain into the archetype that gives weapon training; huge boost right there.

Monk maybe? Pretty fun with double bloodcrow strike for two full attacks. Then again, you probably want to keep up the casting... but it's not like low level magus stuff is going to be that helpful. Your swift actions are already overcrowded as is.

... could a Magus/ punchy Warpriest get 3 full attacks with spellcombat+bloodcrow strike+quickened bloodcrow strike?

>>46518000

>Monk maybe?

Unchained Monk seemed like an interesting alternative maybe. Casting felt like a more reasonable option as I would make myself useful in both fields, but I can see myself sticking with divine and just punching people the fuck out.

We finished a quest and aquired money from the governor. Nothing special.

The abandoned castle we tried to buy was in the middle of a forest, built in the valley. The trees that were taller then the walls were not removed at all, and they couldn't grow back because the castle was abandoned only for three years.

When we tried to restore it, every single caravan with building materials we sent was eaten by wolves, despite the fact that it was heavily guarded.

When we finally used magic to restore the castle, a seven thousand strong army of the local warrior cult appeared and conquered the castle. They never bothered to attack anything else.

We escaped, but were found and executed. No one told us why.

They're not ashamed of being fey, but they certainly do try to hide it (hence their name, Hulder, which means covered or hidden.)

They don't like the tail or back getting brought up because it breaks the illusion, that the man or woman knows they're hulder.

>>46520253

>>46520152
>Huldra don't hide and aren't ashamed of their status as fey

Their name literally means hidden, though.

Their entire thing is looking human, but not being human.

At least that's the only consistent theme for the Huldra, their behavior changes depending on the century or region talking about them; sometimes they're seductive forest spirits that reward men who can satisfy them sexually, others are cruel malicious assholes that lure humans into caves, others are tough working-wives that find love (and humanity) in the arms of woodsmen.

WHAT ARE THOOOOOOOOOOOOSE

Seriously, what's the gauntlet do? And why does she carry a pleb-tier perpendicular-blade scythe?

File: andoranchoochoo.png (2MB, 1151x889px) Image search: [Google]

2MB, 1151x889px

/pfg/, I decided to put a railroad in Andoran. The set-up is that the Lumber Consortium and the government of Andoran, with the aid of dwarvish and Druman investors and hired engineers from Alkenstar hoping to test the concept before implementing it in the Mana Wastes with some features that will keep the railroad from getting wrecked by wild magic storms, have been constructing this series of rails for the past year, with the aim of decreasing overland freight costs of lumber and other goods. The lines from Darkmoon Vale and the Verduran Forest are most important, and the line heading to Highhelm through the mountain (and eventually to Druma though construction of the tunnel hasn't been completed yet). This also highly increases the rate at which the forests are being logged, bringing fey and druidic relations to a boiling point as the Lumber Consortium gains more influence over the government. I've got a few things I'd like feedback on though.

Does this amount of work seem believable, or should I scale it back a few years? I was also thinking that a Lyre of Building could have been involved at some point to help speed up construction.

Like other early trains, they can carry passengers but that's not where the bulk of their profit comes from. How much should I charge PCs for overland travel on the train per mile? Would it be only slightly more expensive than cabs and carriages at about 5 copper pieces a mile, or more expensive than that?

Does it make sense to connect to Triela or Cassomir? Would Triela's importance as a destination for log drivers diminish with the arrival of the train, or would they work in conjunction? The Cassomir connection was mostly an afterthought, seeing as it's so close to the border and the governor of the town apparently wanted to improve relations with Andoran (Grand Prince Stavian III will cack it halfway through the campaign so this might lead into an annexation in the ensuing political struggles.)

Am I the only one who thinks it's weird that the Vigilante's two identities ACTUALLY have two different alignments, instead of the PC having one alignment like normal and appearing to all sorts of alignment-detection effects as if he were whatever other alignment when in his other identity?

It strikes me as unusual that taking a minute to psych yourself up and change your identity would actually change your alignment. It's like you're not just hiding your identity with a costume, you're actually swapping personas, like there are two people in your body that you pass control between. Is that the intention?

I don't take it as outright multiple personalities, though I guess it could be played that way.

I'd say it's more an allowance for actions taken in either identity to not drag the character around the alignment chart. Bruce Wayne can be a dumb rich party boy and do stupid chaotic shit all day, but Batman can remain neutral good no matter how far Bruce goes. Yeah yeah Batman alignment arguments fuck off

Or, in my personal case, my social identity can be literally just a smart bat that does bat stuff smartly, while the vigilante identity is an actual adventurer. WEREBATKIN STRONK, WHERE MY SHAPESHIFTERS AT, KITSUNE GIRLS HOLLA

The gauntlet is part of a set the GM invented called the Invoiker's Regalia. Each piece has its own capabilities, but with every part attained, each piece upgrades its bonuses and unlocks a new set of abilities.

>Invoker's Gauntlet: +3 Ghost Touch, Spell Storing, Spell Stealing; grants ghost touch weapons held. By spending one mythic point, the user sheathes a spell in a thin layer of force, essentially granting spells the Ghost Touch property. Additionally, if the user identifies a spell being cast with spellcraft and that spell is stored in the gauntlet, the user can automatically succeed at a counterspell. This consumes the spell. If a mythic point is spent, the spell is not consumed.

>Invoker's Robes: +4 Int, +5 bonus to Spellcraft, Kc: Arcana, and UMD. Every times the user casts a spell, the robes have a 25% chance to spawn a Mirror Image. This lasts a number of minutes equal to the original spell level of the spell cast; the image may also be expended as a free action to "re-cast" the spell at 50% effectiveness, as if cast by Shadow Evocation, Shadow Conjuration, etc.

The Scythe is her Arcane Bonded object. Sadly it's presently a mere +1 Silversheen scythe. Haven't really had the opportunity to upgrade it during the course of the campaign as of yet since I needed to be sure the rest of the party was tip-top. After this story arc though, everyone's going to have to wait for me to get Elsbeth's gear finally taken care of; been neglected for too long.

>>46522481
But that's what I'm saying, the fact that the two identities both actually have an alignment of their own means that they both seem to have their own personality. It would make more sense if the PC had his own alignment and then detected (but wasn't actually) as a different, chosen alignment in is other identity.

I don't think it allows for actions of one identity to not move the other character around the alignment table. From my understanding of how the class works, if your social identity is CG and your Vig identity is CN, and you do something as a Vig that changes your alignment one step towards evil, it affects BOTH alignments, making your social CN and vig CE. Your social identity and vig identity can't be two steps apart from each other.

Yeah, but that's in the case where the identities move towards opposite sides of the alignment chart. I'm talking about the two sticking to two sides that share a corner (CN and NG, LN and NE) and being free to go as deep as they want on one aspect of alignment, but then drop it entirely when the identities switch.

The sums-to-LG vigilante can be good OR be lawful at any given time, but will never have the paladin's issue where the two conflict.

The GM has a Regalia set for each party member, in addition to a "Legacy" item, weapon, and/or set. Elsbeth's Legacy set she's been collecting are the Six Mourning Princesses, which are a set of six Elven Curved Blades. Each sword is a +2 with some encryption; each sword has a unique ability, but that ability is locked away until certain conditions are met. Of the one's Elsbeth has collected thus far:

>Daybreak: Three times per day, when unsheathing this blade, the wielder can command it to blind all targets facing her (Reflex DC 16) that are within 40 feet. Targets effected are blind for 1d4 rounds and dazzled for an equal number of rounds after.

>Dusk: Teleport to Dusk or Dusk to user anywhere so long as the two are on the same plane; Free Action

>Dawnstar: N/A - yet to be awakened; Needs to strike 10 enemies affected by illusionary effects (a bit ambiguous on specifics) and/or while the user benefits from an Insight bonus to attacks.

>Moonlight: N/A - yet to be awakened; Slay 10 Zombies (minimum of half the user's HD), then heal at least half maximum HP from a single source.

So yeah. If anyone's wondered why the hell the Wizard is carrying around curved blades.

Alternatively I usually just scry on the party rogue who wants to do his XXLoneAssassinXX bit or scry on the enemy that somehow managed to escape after my summoned monster took a bite out of him.

>>46522810
I don't think many people really use Scrying the spell much in the long run, but rather scrying the effect as rendered at-will and with no casting time via stuff like crystal balls.

>Not scrying on the henchman, spy, servant or whatever other plant you have on the enemy base.
Everyone else can still notice the sensor with a DC 24 Perception check.

>>46523074
That's not really a concern, though. Point of scrying is usually to find out where people are and/or get a visual lock for teleport, not to explicitly spy on them. At most, you're wanting to see who's around them, and them seeing that they're being scryed isn't gonna deny you that knowledge.

Any information you could get via eavesdrop-scrying is just as easily obtainable through other divinations.

>>46523152
Ultimate Intrigue says Scrying doesn't work for getting a lock on teleports.

>Scrying can be enormously useful for a spy, if the circumstances all align well for the scryer, but it isn’t particularly useful on its own for a potential teleport. The 10-foot-radius visual requires the target to move in order to provide a clear idea of the layout of the destination, and the spell doesn’t directly indicate the location. The PCs must use contextual clues to figure this out, unless they already know where the target is.

>>46523074
Thats why you target normies. Not everyone will have HD ranks in perception and even then only people whos specific duty it is to keep watch take 10 on their perception checks.

And even if they did notice, big deal? Does Hammus the gardener have ranks in knowledge: arcana? I think not.

>>46523224
The guy you REALLY want intel on is going to notice the scrying sensor by taking 10 on Perception.

>>46523207
No, it says that you may have to derive the location from context clues. That's generally not too hard once you've gotten a glance at the sight via scrying, given that you're a divination caster.

The GM can shut you down by saying there's not enough to go on, of course, but what else is new?

>>46523259
You can't take 10 on a check you don't know you're making. In fact, you take a -5 to Perception checks for being distracted.

And motherfucking Karzoug only has a +22 to his Perception, he'd fail to notice a 7th level scrub scrying on him while he works seven times out of twenty. You can say whatever you like about villains you yourself make, but stuff in pre-written modules is not that hard to get over on.

So this is it. A shitty little players guide to my super special OC donut steel campaign. Check it out if you're interested. I was doing a big ass flavorful essay thing about the setting, but then realized there really is little point in explaining a generic background setting that will have little impact on the story.

It is just about the dawn of the Middle Ages in the continent of Eulith, where the chaos and barbarism brought about by the fall of the Aurum Empire is coming to an end. You, THE PLAYERS, are part of an expedition sailing across the Great Ocean into mystery, one of six expeditions to celebrate the one hundred year anniversary of the Kingdom's founding.

It's post-Roman empire colonialism.

Over time, you'll play as your descendants, time-skipping forward. So there will be waifus. There will be kingdom building. There will be mass warfare.

If you are interested, fire off a character sheet to my Skype@ Tender Moment. It should be fun.

Manliest character ever.

Isn't Bara just an overemphasis on muscles and traditional manly things, to the point it becomes their defining feature?

Bara is a bit different than being a pretty manly dude.

>>46523772
>I feel really stupid now and dropping out would pretty much prove my case against me so I've decided to stick around and be willfully oblivious to their gay antics.

Bruh, there's nothing wrong with "proving them right" because the end-result of them being proved right is you moving on with your life, them moving on with your life, and neither of you ever really seeing the aftermath of it all.

Sticking it through means putting up with their gay antics until you eventually snap, which will happen sooner rather than later and will most likely result in their point being proven even harder.

Kurgess is like the manliest thing ever.

>>46523845

>>46523924

Kurgess is not manly because of his glistening muscles or massive dick.

Kurgess is manly because he's an honest team-player who respects the rules and pushes people to achieve their full potential.

>>46523979
And does so by raising morale with his glistening muscles and massive dick.

I'll be making a new and improved actual player's guide, with a guide to the Deities, and a map of not-Europe.
Basically, there is a Roman-ish pantheon of six Deities, each one with a different thematic domain of humanity. Conflict, Community, Thought, Work, Dreams, and Mystery. The Kingdom uses a six pointed Star as it's symbol. (Pic related.) So that's why there are six expeditions, one of each Deity. Players are on the expedition for the trickster Deity. The not-Byzantine Empire has dropped the sixth trickster Deity, aiming to not have Mystery in their lives, so they use a five pointed star.
Meanwhile, there's a new Monotheism Deity of Fire whipping cults and warbands into action. This will be the serious, "antagonist," religion of not-Europe. Expect to find out this religion has exploded in popularity in a few centuries.
>>46524608
Yeah. Expect different stat buffs that pass down the family line, depending how who you get shacked up with. It'll be balanced in the way that everyone doesn't have to rush out to bang a dragon/celestial/fiend/magma elemental for some stat template. Don't let that stop you though. You might have problems with rival family lines down the line. Or maybe you play as the rival family line, that has to retake the Kingdom after it falls into decadence.
>>46524578
Level One. It's rusty shanktown, but you'll be a few levels in soon. Need level 1 for that "gritty, realistic," exploration.

I've just come accross the Scrollmaster wizard archetype and I wanna optimize the hell out of this gimmick.

I'm not sure how to start. Take a short dip in this class and then go POW to use manouvers with my equivilent short sword/shield? Go into tome eater occultist or something for maximum book power?

"Just be a level 20 wizard" is not optimizing this archetype because I'd never wanna use the scroll weapons over just being a wizard

>>46525476
I'd say use the scrolls mostly as shield and go into Cypher Mage.

Have some friendly wizards cast Gate, making an open portal to the most popular trading ports and cities.

>Merfolk: Amphibious trait, +2 natural AC, +2 CON. Half of the children will have Merfolk movement speed, half will have 30ft base speed, 20ft swim speed. Gills on the neck, scales on the skin, fishy smell.

I think how I'll do it is that descendants choose one bonus from each pairing, with the full bonus of the most recent pairing. If someone has a really powerful bonus, the rest of the party get bonuses to make up for it. There's an incentive to get hooked up with powerful creatures, but isn't there always? Stuff like Noble Drow and powerful Outsiders will be suitably rare.

>>46525939

In those circumstances you'd get a bonus equal to majority proportion.

In this case, first generation will have half-dragon bonuses. Second generation will be half celestial and quarter dragon, which should give 75% of the children predominantly celestial features, and 25% predominant draconic features, and the bonuses to match.

>>46526185

In this case it's mimics interbreeding with mortals. Mimics in setting share a lot of characteristics with normal ones, but at some point in the past were uplifted. They have their own mimic empire hidden way up north and try and influence what other civilizations that are left from there.

So it gives them shape shifting in much the same way mimics do, but sometimes uncontrollable, and an inability to actually digest vegetable matter and a distaste for cooked meat. In this case the girl mostly tries to hide this by simply not eating in public at all. As well you hear the call of the being that uplifted the mimics, who amounts to their god. He is referred to as the masked lantern, and all current uplifted mimics are related to him (one's power and standing in mimic society can be measured in large by generations removed from this being). The being is referred to as the Masked Lantern.

The girl in question is actually only 4 generations removed, but only 1/4 mimic.

>>46526901
>an inability to actually digest vegetable matter and a distaste for cooked meat

but how do they get all their nutrients. she'll never get her muscle spasms under control if she doesn't eat properly.

>but how do they get all their nutrients. she'll never get her muscle spasms under control if she doesn't eat properly.
That is actually part of her character! She has seizures due to the fact she is still mostly human but can't eat like a human.

>And are we talking about mimics as in "one day the adventurer fucked a treasure chest, and some time later he baby who was the basket dropped on his doorstep?"
That's what mimics used to be before being uplifted. Now they're much more versatile shape shifters.

How it would work is that the more generations you are removed from the progenitor the more stupid you become. The normal citizenry being somewhere between 20th and 30th progenitors. Once you reach 50th-60th they become around the intelligence of animals. These creatures would be used as trainable servants and furniture, taught certain form that they are meant to take and rewarded with food. Once you get past this and near 100th progenitors they do not even have the skill or ability to move independently, and instead form putty like substance and meld together with others of their kind. These are taken by more royal mimics known as fleshshapers and made into what ever pieces of art or items they wish with their skilled hands, as well these later progenitors would make up the glut of the food base for their society.

The first progenitor of the mimics would be akin to a lesser deity (a being without normal shape or form, one that appears different to every being perceiving it, and with power scarcely seen on the prime material), his direct children demigods and uncontested rulers of mimic culture (they would be most independent, their power great enough they need not adhere to the concerns of others and merely act as they choose), and their children forming the upper echelon of mimic society (and between these mimic families there would be enormous amount of petty power struggles and arguments over purity of their lines towards the progenitor).

So what happened here is two generations ago a 2nd progenitor decided to visit, check up on the society, and do what ever he pleased. He disguised himself as a human, brought with him riches and gifts from supposedly existent foreign lands (in setting pretty much everyone lived in a small region and leaving is extremely dangerous). He comes in, seduces royalty for shits and giggles, then fucks off after getting a few noble women pregnant and murdering some others.
