Guys, how do I Ursa in Pathfinder?

>>47907707

Coldborn skinwalker with pretty much any kind of Natural Weapon build, I guess? I admit, I don't know if the character has any other special abilities besides "is actually a bear".

>>47907727
Hes sort of like a Barbarian if that barbarian had flurry of blows, his ultimate is a rage and he kinda just fucks shit up real hard (if hes close to said thing). also generally has lots of health.

I want to play a heavily armored warrior who can also cast a little bit.Classes that support this?

What are some good excuses for a character to be mad enough to enter the Underdark?

>>47907703
>Ofuda casting warpriest that loses armor proficiencies, and gets similar stuff to the magus card caster archetype to go with it

Simple. You want them to end up at a haunted village controlled by an evil cult? Tell them to go wherever they like, follow whatever road or path. They'll cheerfully do so, and if they invariably end up at the village you wanted them to, hey, how would they ever know?

>>47908236
This; however, one must carefully maintain the illusion of choice in order to keep a sense of player agency.

You can specifically build forking points too if you have the time, but use those to insert optional encounters and goodies as rewards for your players seeking them out; these can also be constructed in such a manner as to be as versatile as possible, for instance; bandits holding a hostage makes sense whether it's in a forest, town or ruined castle.

>>47908571
DORF HATE TREEEEEEEE

>>47908571
We had one in our campaign. The other dwarf in our party was really dismayed that she didn't act like a proper dwarf, in his opinion, a situation that was further compounded when I brought in a new PC in the form of the most dwarven elf to ever exist.

>>47908603

Fyi: Traps have a DC of 20 at first level because you *always* want to take 20 when disabling traps. The only reason you don't take 20 is when you're in combat.

>>47905040
Well, we can't get together every week, we don't all live in the same city anymore. So we get together for a weekend, once a month.
And we're lucky if a campaign lasts a year.
Now:
>1/3 of 32 hours is 10.67 hours per weekend, tops (probably less, because odds are well also play a bit of mtg or go out for food or something between campaigns). But let's be very generous and call it 10.67. no breaks, no movies, no variety, just solid RPG gaming the whole weekend.
>10.67 hours a month averages out to 2.67 hours a week. This is less than 4-5 hours.4.5 hours a week is 168.75% of the most generous estimate of how much time my campaign gets.

If I can cover a reasonable level range in a year, with 60% your campaign time or less (realistically probably 2/3 of that 60%, for a total of like, 40% of your 4.5h weekly session), then so can you, if you decide you want to.

>>47905106
>Nobody runs the campaign I want to play.
Nobody runs the campaign I want to play either. So I GM it myself, and then at least it exists.
Let me know if you find a reliable way to get a GM to run what you want to play.
Plus, if you run higher level campaigns rather than staying at one, you're seeing a precedent for your group, making it easier to justify not starting 1 next time.

Except you can't take 20 with traps because a bad enough failure would have a detrimental effect.

Pros and cons of pathfinder over other d&d
Advantages:
>More character options
>High power level
>Most compatible adventures or of any edition
>Good monster manuals.
>Better at than the other guys.
>Rules are legally online for free and better presented than can ever be managed with books or PDFs.
>DSPs classes are neat, and not really available in other editions.
Disadvantages
>Lots of Trap options you want to avoid, including entire character classes and races.
>Still uses alignment.
>WBL and having the gear you want is critical to being any good for most characters, despite most GM's ignoring the WBL rule because they don't want to give people enough gear.
>Shitty GM's starting you at L1 over and over such that you never get to play a character who's actually powerful.
>GMing advice is crap in the books, what works and doesn't is something you figure out via word of mouth and trial and error. This results in lots of crappy GM's.

>>47909100
Oh. Youre right, I'm thinking locks. traps are just unusually difficult

Can I put firearm on Ioun Wyrd familiar via modify construct rule? What about a newly created Ioun Wyrd?

Is there an easier way to create Bit/Funnel?

>>47909117

Several of these points really depend on the GM.

>WBL and having the gear you want is critical to being any good for most characters, despite most GM's ignoring the WBL rule because they don't want to give people enough gear.

I can't speak for other GMs here, but my party usually ends up over the WBL because there are so many cool magic items I want to give out as loot. Not necessarily +whatever upgrades - one of my party's favourite items is a pair of gloves that allow you to use the Message cantrip at will.

>Shitty GM's starting you at L1 over and over such that you never get to play a character who's actually powerful.

Is that Pathfinder's fault? Maybe you should just find a non-shitty GM.

>>47909218
You can also awaken the weapon itself as a robot construct at which point you just need to program its responses/orders and give it flight

Actually many classes have no such ability and those that do can't use them all the time.

I don't mean "spells per day" that's never a real limit I mean you need to glare and concentrate as, say, a paladin, in order to do this: it's obvious, it's at least rude if not outright hostile, and it can be very misleading.

>>47909775
A stand-up a few weeks ago made a damn good point about that.

We keep getting told to report anyone suspicious, as if some kids cartoon villain was laughing maniacally while tiptoeing towards some objective.

What we get is a ton of secretly-scared people suspiciously glaring and leering at everyone around them nervously.

Which looks fucking suspicious.

>>47909759
Misleading how?

Yes it's rude, but paladin's do it all the time.

Can we trust you? Scan for evil.
Hmm. I'm not Sure I believe you about _____. Scan for evil.

What, you don't like it? If you're not evil you have no reason to worry.

>>47909759
First off, after an argument I've had to the Nth degree with two different GM's, no, it isn't. It might be a glare or it might be a furrow of the brow or a vacant expression, all it really shows is that you're concentrating really hard on something. Not the best start to a diplomatic relation if you do it in someone's face, but all the same it's not something that broadcasts "I'm Detecting Evil on you", even if they know you're a Paladin and they suspect what you might be doing. Further, alignment as an absolute only exists as a game system abstraction- otherwise, why not get the local Paladins to do a routine scan and eliminate anyone who pings "too" evil? That's right, because it's a retarded thing to do.
Outside of fringe cases like figuring out the local abbot is a Cultist of Asmodeus on the side or discovering the Gilderavn masquerading as a military advisor in court, Detect (X) tells you jack and shit from a diplomatic perspective.

>>47909818
>If you're not evil you have no reason to worry.
Lawful Evil detected. Activating smite evil...

Why would you ever roll a strength check to break something when you can just attack it?

Just because someone's a tremendous asshole doesn't mean you cut them down in the street. Detection =/= conviction.

I would definitely fold together some of those that aren't demon, daemons or devils. There's too many other families of fiends, and not enough variety within these families.

>>47909518
It's not good, but I love the cartooniness of it.

What sort of evolutions should I be looking at if I want to build my eidolon in the image of the almighty vilderavn?

Question for ya. Not necessarily a rules question so much as a role-play question:

What do you do when an NPC causes your character to perceive something via illusion magic (and you fail the save to disbelieve) that your character knows is impossible (for example, seeing and hearing the voice of your 5-year old daughter when you haven't seen her for 20 years)?

I have failed to disbelieve it, so I believe the voice and image in front of me are real, but my character knows his daughter would be 25 by now, and not only would it be impossible for her to be before him in this form (excluding vampirism, which would probably be the first guess if he couldn't figure out his mind was being messed with), it might also be highly unlikely for the two of them to run into each. The world is pretty big, after all.

Especially troubling if the character is one who is a very Sherlocke Holmes type character. Would it be reasonable to say my character probably knows it's an illusion, even though he sees it, or does that violate the "failed to disbelieve" portion?

Is there anything that benefits from having a high initiative, and how would you min-max initiative?

>>47911014
>a character faced with proof that an illusion isn't real needs no saving throw

>>47911014

He knows it's fake, he just doesn't care.

Why? Because as fake as it is, it's still a chance to hear the voice of his daughter and talk to "her", if not just for a few minutes.

>>47911066
Is there anything that DOESN'T?
>Less likely to be flatfooted
>More likely to go against things that are
>Anything you kill, knock-out, disable or otherwise prevent the actions of mitigates damage/effects against your party

>>47911109
I meant anything with a direct mechanical benefit, sorry if I was unclear. Like "for every 5 of your initiative roll, X happens."

>>47911014
He'd know there's something weird going on like a particularly convincing shapeshifter or a ghost or something. He would not necessarily know for certain that it's an illusion.

>>47911085
That works for failed saves against some of the mind-affecting types, which 'force' it on you anyways.

If it's just a figment or phantasm though, you can get through. You do need hard proof; and it still appears as a translucent image you can 'pretend' to interact with.

>>47911125
If there is I don't know any, and they'd be dangerous as fuck; you already get so much from "going first"...

>>47911084
>a character faced with proof that an illusion isn't real needs no saving throw
I would think the proof would be seeing his actual daughter before him, or seeing her corpse, something of that nature.

Otherwise, your character wouldn't be affected by an illusion of an enemy he has killed in the past, such as a rival, even though he knows that there are spells and other means of returning to life after death.

>>47911085
I like this suggestion a lot. Really good job on that one, anon.

>>47911127
So I don't, for example, have to throw myself at the illusion, crying and weeping, breathe a sigh of relief and try to embrace it, or even follow it. I could be suspicious of it, even treat it with hostility because of my character's personal knowledge of who the illusion is imitating?

>>47911014

Basically. Though in this particular example where the character in question has no idea what happened to his daughter, depending on the state of mind he's in and the general situation, he might let himself be fooled - it's a high fantasy setting, there could be several ways for someone to not age a day in 20 years, like time travel or some sort of stasis(like http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/t/temporal-stasis )

>>47911014
You see her, but an illusion that doesn't have the mind-affecting descriptor doesn't turn your rational mind off. You'll definitely know that there's some sort of funny business going on. You might not immediately jump to the conclusion of it being an illusion, but you would likely be very skeptical of the apparition.

>>47911423
Yeah, it's definitely situational and character dependent.

>>47911377
>>47910802

Eh. I suppose that works okay in a gestalt game. No good for a regular game though.

Our party does it easily because we have one ioun stone that eliminates the need to eat or drink (I forget which one that is, I want to say the nacreous gray sphere) that we don't implant but instead lend to whichever PC is fasting to attune themselves the the ioun stone they do want implanted, allowing them to get to the max +5 bonus and have endless retries on the check without having to break their fast. To further push it, I have a cohort with the Inexplicable Luck and Bestow Luck feats, allowing him to give someone a +8 bonus on any d20 roll once/day. With the collective +13 bonus on the check, even my PC (who only has a CHA of 11) will eventually pass the check to attune the ioun stone.

What does Cold Iron Weapons do?

I just searched the book for answers and all it says is that demons are vulnerable to it but it doesnt say how much extra damage or extra rolls or extra anything i get by using it.

Someone told me Cold Iron weapons could negate all DR from Demons and such but i dont see anything from that listed anywhere.

>>47912378
Look at any demon's stat block and you'll see DR XX/cold iron and good. That means that they'll take less damage from any weapon that isn't cold iron or good aligned.

>>47912378
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/monster-listings/outsiders/demon

Here's some demons.

See how they've got DR/Cold Iron?

Cold Iron weapons bypass that.

>>47912378
Cold iron weapons are also effective at bypassing the DR of fey creatures.

>>47912415
>DR XX/cold iron and good
This means that the weapon has to be both Cold Iron and Good-aligned. Either on its own won't bypass the DR. If it said DR XX/cold iron OR good, it could be either one to work

Those are practically the same. The same name except for an autistic extra letter, both like destroying everything. Seriously, the sahkil are more unique.

>merge Asuras and Rakshasas, they're both Lawful Evil fiends from Indian mythology.
But they don't even remotely have the same motivation. Asuras are omnicidal (along with half the other fiends) but Rakshasa are only interested in hedonism. Like, you know, Oni. Rakshasa and Oni are both earthbound evils driven by hedonism. How are they not the same?

Although asuras, gigas, titans, and demodands all have the shared antipathy toward the gods. The word asura is often translated as titan.

>Maybe Sahkils could be merged with Kytons, they a similar aesthetic.
Kytons are Hellraiser rip-offs who take people to hell to torture them, the Sahkils terrorize and feast on fear. Sounds more like daemons to me.

So I've got some idea for consolidation:

Rakshasa <=> Oni
Div => Demons of envy, ex-genies, counterpart of nemesis devils
Daemon => Sahkil, personifications and consumers of fear and death

That's three down, leaving 8 total.

>Those are practically the same.
The motivation is superficially similar. Demons want to destroy, tempt, and wreak havoc. They enjoy breaking shit, but they're essentially just around to enjoy themselves.

Daemons, meanwhile, are nihilists. they want to the world to end. Demons do not want that, as it'd mean an end to their fun.

You published a poorly balanced piece of shit, just admit it already, my waifu isn't related to that in any way or form.

>>47912630
Do you really need a different category for each minor difference in motivation?

Paizo daemons have always mostly seemed like watered down demons to me.

>>47912732
In the event of a doomsday scenario, you can count on demons to actually help fight against the daemons, rather than join them.
That's enough distinction for me.

>>47911934
I don't know what level you're at but at high levels it is pretty good as you now have a familiar that is intelligent and capable of doing things on its own at level 16. If you are low levels then extra traits is seriously the best feat you could choose, as there are a lot of good choices for traits(I personally enjoy Self-Sacrifice and Combat Training if 3PP allowed or Self-Sacrifice and Forbidden Knowledge if not.

>>47912749
That is a faction distinction. I'm not sure it justifies the creature type distinction.

>>47912826
One does not choose to become a demon or a daemon, generally.
It's not really a faction.

If you page back to the rules for how monster classes work, you will see this:

>Some monster classes, such as the hound archon and succubus, allow the character to trade their native spell-like abilities for a spellcasting progression. If such a character later gains levels in a spellcasting class of the same type (arcane, divine, or psychic), the character can opt to continue the progression of their monster class, rather than gaining spells from the new class. The character gains new spells per day and an increase in caster level and spells known as if he had also gained a level in their monster class (even if the monster class does not have that many levels). This replaces the new class’ spellcasting progression in its entirety, including the ability to use spell completion and spell-trigger items as a member of that class. A class that only casts spells at a later level than 1st (such as the ranger) only stacks the levels where it gains spellcasting.

Unrelatedly, we've just now added a pair of new archetypes to the Fool's Errand playtest. This is likely the last of the New Stuff for that project, as pagecount has been pretty much maxed, but here is a link to a PoW Vigilante and Brawler:

>>47913055
Hey Forrest. I've mentioned this before, but you guys should do a pets and cohorts book, giving animal companions, familiars, and eidolons to different classes, and ideally making an evolution point buy companion that you can build into anything you have the points for, including taking different creature types.

I would happily pay for such a product (if only so I don't need homebrew one)

The facebook post is gone now. It was by Adam Meyer, the Spheres of Power guy.

"I hereby move that people who hold to RAW (rules-as-written) to such a degree that they destroy games and make things unfun or unusable should be called ogres. (because they RAW'r so much).

Just like we say 'don't feed the trolls' or 'he's trolling you' when we mean being a jerk, we can say 'stop being an ogre' when we mean don't nitpick the rules, or 'that feat is ogre-bait' when we mean RAW and RAI are clearly different."

>take succubus monster class
>pick up enchanting courtesan PrC after that

>>47913342
I prefer to say "that feat is badly written"

People argue RAI to try and get an interpretation that's beneficial to them or detrimental to someone else.

When people argue so much about RAW, it's either because there's assholes trying to pretend the rule is something that isn't written, or because something's not properly covered (a hole in the rules), or because the rule's wording is unclear or outright fucked up.

Much of this is not the people's fault, that's the developers faults. Why should there be derogatory terms for someone if all they do is try to correct a bad understanding - or worse yet a deliberate misunderstanding? Not everyone arguing about RAW is trying to be That Guy.

Sometimes the argument is RAI vs RAW (thanks, paizo FAQs and "errata"), while other times you find That Guys saying "don't nitpick" or "just houserule it" about glaring fucking holes or screwups in the rules.

Question /pfg/. If I am a Neutral aligned Wizard can I cast any alignment based spells (such as infernal healing) and if I do will it result in alignment change?

>>47913505
No.

It's referring only to people who shit everything up with it.


Although I *can* see one point; I can imagine if the term spreads it would quickly be used as an ad-hominem when you've passed off some fuckery as being the rules and someone tries to call you on it after you've gotten the table on your side; something I've seen happen often over the years, in particular at FLGS'

It's what most GMs arguably /should/ allow, but unfortunately it's more of a 30/70 split on those that like it/hate it when running games.

>>47915265

if mine dies, or if I start another campaign is when I'd roll up one of those 3, or eldritch archer. I'm actually already reading it in another tab.

>>47915131
Many GMs do, many don't.
Anyone who plays as "PFS best rules" will want nothing to do with any 3rd party materials.

Many those who love caster supremacy as it is want nothing to do with 3rd party materials.

And no small number believe CRB is best balance, and if that's best balance anything 3rd party is obviously broken.

However, many house groups and online groups happily allow it as well. Plenty of games out there that want T3/4, and thus will sooner ban core rogue and wizard/druid/cleric/oracle than any of the DSP stuff.

Balancewise, Psion/Wilder are T2, and pretty much everything else DSP is tier 3 or 4. Balancewise there's *usually* not much to worry about.

let's assume every "big" outsider faction (inclusing Qlippoth) engaged with each other in one big cataclysmic planar war. Who would come out on top? For factions with infighting, they band together and stop stabbing each other in the back.

Can you slap natural attacks onto the end of a PoW full-attack strike?

Like if you use that one "three punches of anal devastation" broken blade 3rd level maneuver, can you also deliver a bite afterwards at a -5?

If so, would the natural attack gain the benefits of the strike, or just be delivered on it's own, independently?

Giantslayer is so forgettable I can't even give a shit.

CoT was okay. I enjoyed it for the short time that it lasted.

Generally, I suggest not using published adventures or even settings - if the GM makes it all up, it'll run a whole lot smoother. Maybe to start with it might be challenging, but it's DEFINITELY the way to go.
The only excusable reason to run an AP once you know what you're doing with the game is because you have absolutely no free time to come up with stuff. Otherwise, the GM should at the very least heavily modify the AP to suit the party and it's interests.

So its totally reasonable to make a Mermaid Sorcerer for my Barbarian/Dragon Disciple right

>>47917580
Tonnura-san
(also the name of the manga)

It's amazing, in a way.

>>47917594
Right.

>>47917424
immediate action rerolling is a very strong ability in Pathfinder.

Enemy crit? Reroll!
Ally fumble? Reroll!
Ally fail save? Reroll!

Most oracle curse is mild enough that it can be negate with a little bit of work (tongue = 1 rank of linguistic from everyone in your party for example)

>>47917481
So it's basically just the two free revelations if you can work around the effects of the second curse? People talk about the archetype like it's the second coming.

>>47917606
yeah.

25ft is a totally respectable movespeed too.

This is why I love Preacher Inquisitors.

Wait.. since Divine caster doesn't need to sleep to prepare spell...

They can stay up all night to craft magic item and then, just cast Lesser Restoration on themselves to get rid of fatigue, before their daily praying to get spell back??

>>47917628
sure mechanically i buy that

a DM would eventually penalize you.

>>47917628
No, you still need rest.

>>47917642
why?

>>47917628
If your god hears you mumbling half-conscious prayers to them instead of proper devotion you just get zapped.

>>47917617
You know it.

>>47917616
I fucking hate this argument. "It's not as good as some people are saying, so I don't see how it's good."

Extra revelation and >>47917610. Of course it's not going to give you cake and blowjobs like some people claim, but it's better than not taking it.

>>47917642
> A divine spellcaster chooses and prepares spells ahead of time, but unlike a wizard, does not require a period of rest to prepare spells.

> does not require a period of rest to prepare spells.

Some spellcasting classes, particularly divine spellcasting classes such as clerics, druids, inquisitors (and others), do not need to rest to regain spells but instead regain spells at a set time each day regardless of rest.

> do not need to rest to regain spells but instead regain spells at a set time each day regardless of rest.

>>47917673
yeah.

And then when later people are getting their shit ripped to pieces by an insane mermaid with claws and winds and teeth and crazy breath and shit it'll not be crazy at all.

>>47917653
That's why you cast lesser restoration before praying.

So - I got a fan request to do a story about a merg, and I'm looking to fill a few more pages in the short story anthology that's going with Mourners. What other sorts of stories might /pfg/ want to see? Your last request was a tavern maid story, which version was fulfilled and will be in the book.

>>47917694
Those crazy merpeople.

>>47917718
Tiefling nuns.

>>47917739
Difficult, considering.

>>47917718
I'm fine with whatever you write! Just make sure she's CUTE!

>>47917722
What color of dragon would match up well with that anyways

I guess i could take crossblooded and go aquatic/draconic too but aquatic kinda sucks until you hit 15 at which point it become god tier.

I'm interested in challenging myself without being completely worthless.

The group i run absolutely hates playing as buffing/control/utility types so the job usually falls to me.

How worthwhile is mystic theurge assuming the party is composed of T3~T4 classes.

>>47917718
Houri stuff. They are a comedy goldmine.

>>47917718

Perhaps a hilarious misunderstanding between nobles that spirals out of control and leads to an increasingly elaborate and dangerous contest/duel?

>>47917768
It was either brass or copper that liked to live by the sea. One of them probably has a swim speed but I am too lazy to check. I believe it was the one with lightning breath.

>>47917811
form of the dragon says brass has burrow and copper has constant spider climb

black is swamp,
green is forest but it has a swim speed


Ah. Bronze is the one i think you were looking for, it has swim and resists electricity

Doubling up on swim speed is kinda silly but i suppose it doesn't matter that much, its unlikely i would want to use burrow and spider climb hardly matters when i fly.

>>47917784
Oh?

>>47917796
Could be fun.

So, what ever happened to Lewd Commission Anon? Was there some kind of consensus on the thing that was going to be drawn?

>>47917849
Brass, Copper, Bronze. Shit man, there are more dragons of that color type than I thought.

I just figured that if a mermaid and dragon were to fugg, it would be the dragon that lives near the sea.

>>47917718
Maybe a proper glimpse into the consequences of high level characters picking a fight in towns.

I don't remember if arson-girl has scatter-capable weapons, but wooden walls can't handle the damage dealing of veteran characters all that well, nor the secondary effects probably loaded into them.

It's all badass swashbuckling action until "everything in a 60ft cone" becomes involved outside a bar.

What kind of code would an Anti-Paladin of Zyphus follow?

>>47917796
>Perhaps a hilarious misunderstanding between nobles that spirals out of control and leads to an increasingly elaborate and dangerous contest/duel?

Happened to our group of negative charisma murderhobos.

It was pretty much a game of telephone that escalated into a skirmish between two generals.

Our flat 10 CHA cleric managed to nat 20 a diplomacy check to convince the two generals to tell their men to stand down and to de-escalate their animosity into a duel of fisticuffs instead of pistols and sabers.

Anon-san! Anon-san! How do I stop myself from using my fullcaster power from prying into poor martial's secret past?

So far I have pierce his disguise, detect his alignment and his detect his desire...

His gary stu edgy lord character has no secret left now..

>>47918002
Vision him? Get every little bit you can and then tell everyone you can.

>>47917901
I can only see that being interesting if the point of view is a scavenging low level adventurer, trying to get whatever he can out of the remains of a 'great battle'.

>>47918002
... nobody - most especially not your character - gives a fuck what his dark secrets are.

Well, not the dark secrets written on his backstory for edginess, that is.


But the fact that gammy used to call him her little apricot?

The fact that his first crush was his older cousin?

How he's got a thing for the gnome girl?

that's the real gold.

So /pfg/, who's excited for Hellknights in a week?

You know I should break out my draconomicon from 3.5 to check

I'm more excited for the Spymaster's Handbook in a week!

>>47913055
If the contender charges or would move because of a maneuver, does Point of Contention apply? Can you "charge" point blank while swinging someone to get the charge bonus? Do you provoke for this? I know these are the most annoying questions, but somebody has to ask. :\

>>47915327
A psionic companion archetype that gives up shared spells and stuff to let your companion gain some psi-like abilities and hold a focus for you would be amaaaazing.

That said, the buraq archetype is...I mean it's amazing but I feel a little bit like it's too amazing. Share spells is great, but Robe of the Forgotten Deity stocked up with Enhanced Capacity is hard to argue.

>>47918002
Dominate him. Make HIM tell you all the sordid details.

>>47918458
You?
Nah.
Other people.

>>47918445
You can turn maneuver movement into shuffles with that, yeah.

Re: charging point-blank, probably yes, but I need to double-check that that doesn't break anything. It might change.

You do not provoke for this, because you're not leaving your space.

Is it possible to make a spellslinger that doesn't suck donkeyballs?
I want to make a gun mage badly by my GM is no3pp so I'm stuck with this miserable excuse for an archetype.

>>47917891
Alright here we go

According to Draconomicon

Black: Swamps
Blue: Deserts, hot lowlands, ect.
Brass: Deserts
Bronze: Tropical Islands and Coastal Areas, anything w/ water, but maintain dry lairs. Interesting.
Copper: Dry, rocky uplands.
Gold: "Gold dragons can live anywhere,
but they prefer secluded
lairs. Favorite locales include the bottoms
of lakes, high plateaus, islands,
and deep gorges:
Green: Forests, obviously.
Red: Mountain homes, anything with HIGH PLACES.
Silvers: High Mountains.
Whites: Frigid climates, including high mountains in cold areas.

God, the Draconomicon is such a good book

Bronze would definitely be the golden ticket for a dragon that would cavort with Merfolk.

Well that clears me up a little.
I still need to write an actual bio instead of just "a big ol pile of random facts" about this iconic, maybe this'll help

One level dip, the same way you play all Spellslingers.
