Friendly reminder to tell us what 3pp your game allows if you need character building help.

How does it feel to know that H.P. Lovecraft is "officially" a kitsune?

A brave (perhaps foolhardy) anon purchased a copy of the Grimoire of Lost Souls, a 3pp book about binders written by Alex Augunas, and shared it with /pfg/. It contained many horrifying and blatantly sexual (if not outright fetishistic) pact entries-it also had one about a kitsune whose mind got stolen by some otherworldly entity, which is what OP is referring to.

Now you know as much as we do.

H.P. Lovecraft did not have his mind stolen, he was writing based off the Necronomicon, which was written by the Mad Arab Abdul Alhazred.

So /tg/, how do I help out a friend that wants to play but doesn't give a fuck about the game the second the encounter is over?

He enjoys combat and enjoys playing the game with us, but will do nothing on his down time to look at anything in the game. He is currently playing a sorcerer and I'm trying to help him by giving him 4-5 spells he would learn each time he gets a new slot, but he has yet to use any of the spells he has picked.

He is currently level 6, picked up Blur, Glitter dust, and Fractions of Heal and Harm for his second/third level spells, but only keeps picking his blasting spells from level 1 that he knows. He keeps picking up utility and then never using it or never needing it.

I don't want to say "fuck you, you are taking this spell", but he is taking spells that he never uses and using only grease and blasting magic.
>>
>>49278230
If he only knows combat, either force him into combat scenarios that invalidate his normal stratagem (such as enemies immune to trip/grease or with the right energy resistances, or force him to engage in and deal with non-combat encounters that require utility magic.

Basically, force him out of his comfort zone where he has no choice but to adapt to survive.

Didn't say he did-apparently some kitsune wrote a story about it based on some journal that kitsune occult scholars like to talk about. Hence, kitsune Lovecraft.
>>
>>49278279
I'm not the DM, just trying to help him out since he shows interest, just nothing past what happens at the table.
>>
>>49278230
Or if he has fun blasting shit, just give him some more blasting spells or metamagic feats so he can blast better. I mean, fuck, why isn't he allowed to have fun too?
>>
>>49278374
Because he doesn't choose blasting spells.

I gave him the option of Haste, Firestream, Fireball, Ice Spears, Silver Darts, and a few other damaging level three spells. The DM mentioned Fractions as a silly off-hand joke. He took Fractions.

The problem is he likes blasting, but isn't picking up blasting spells when presented to him.

That sounds familiar.

Stuff by DreamScarred Press is always fun. Psionics and Path of War.

Zweihander Warder archetype for Path of War is the most broken martial class in the game according to /tg/.

Aegis is a fun martial class. You get a lot of passive bonuses like the Fighter, but you take them as part of a suit of armor. You can change in an instant between super defense (extra Dex for dodge AC, DR/-, Energy Resistance), utility (having a backpack someone else can ride in, flying, climbing, underwater), and offense (~4 sizes up, +6 str, +5ft reach that stacks with size bonuses, dual wielding two handed weapons)
>>
>>49278518
I'd say Merciful would work for Acadamae Graduate as well, although it would eat some actions to get rid of the fatigue, it would also give you straight healing you wouldn't otherwise be able to get.
>>
>>49278712

Why do people get butthurt about the Zweihander Sentinel when they, in the same breath, casually suck the Aegis's ectoplasmic dick?
>>
>>49278596

I'm just saying. Immortal loli paladin with huge charisma.
>>
>>49278631

Well, in terms of 1pp, paladins can be pretty hard to kill. Good saves, several immunities, and Lay on Hands, plus you have Smite to tear bad guys apart. An Invulnerable Rager barbarian gets DR equal to half your level-add in the various Superstition powers, and you've got a very angry man who just won't die.
>>
>>49278699
For Paizo content. Paladin or Warpriest have swift action self healing ability.
>>
>>49278755
I was not trying to be smug or smart there. Zwei Warder is largely considered the best Martial Class here.
>>
>>49278518
Looking at patrons, Shadow would give you insane utility, while Time has a very solid selection of spells.
>>
>>49278757

Loli should not have large charismas, it's not right.
>>
>>49278798
All Shadow X spell are already on Wizard list though. The patron is good for witch, but kinda meh on Wizard
>>
>>49278817

The largest!

What's wrong, anon, does that intimidate you?
>>
>>49278755
It's popular, but I honestly don't think Zweihander Sentinel is the best by a large margin.

Warlords are superior if you want pure offense
So are Mystics.
>>
>>49278518
>Witch Patrons
Healing - gives you access to the Restoration spell line, which can be very useful and isn't something Wizards normally have access to.

Strength gives Divine Favor, Divine Power and other spells for boosting your physical characteristics. You pry won't want to get into melee range anyway, but it's not bad for boosting dexterity and such so you can hit with your ranged attacks.

Mind can give you access to a bunch of Psychic spells, and they tend not to be terrible. I'd say it's a fair pick.

Devotion isn't very good at low levels but has some decent high level spells (bestow grace of the champion, holy aura and mass heal).

For Curses, Wasting is always a decent pick. Legalistic has some nice synergy with the Planar Binding spells. Infested Goblin is awesome if you're playing a Goblin wizard. If 3pp Curses are allowed, Feral is cool. Forsaken is probably the best one (automatic raise dead if you die after level 10).
>>
>>49278847

They'll attract all sorts of attention! Huge charisma lolis will be turning heads wherever they go!
>>
>>49278863
>>49278796

It's more like people moan whenever the ZweiSent gets mentioned or praised, but in the same thread you get people casually gushing over the Aegis and how it's the perfect class for basically any build.

No, the GM already let me take catch off guard (he also ruled that any magic enchantments to unarmed attacks also apply to improv weapons). It's just that i did to the poor sleeping magus 18 damage when i missed the giant porcupine dog and hit the floor.

In my defense, ha had failed 4 rolls in a row to wake up. Might as well make him useful.

As normal, deflecting or dodging questions about any activities he performs in pursuit of his task.

So I'm planning on rolling a synth summoner for the first time because it sounds cool. I've been wondering though about how exactly that sort of character looks. Traditionally the summoner and his eidolon are just a dude and his weird pet creature. However the fluff for synth describes the eidolon as "translucent armour".

So is this similar to a stand, or could it be roleplayed as something akin to a symboite like venom, that when is summoned, becomes a physical extension of the summoner? I mean, I'm sure the DM would be cool with either because they're chill, but idk what the general thought is.
>>
>>49280036
Don't make them NPCify anyone who starts taking them, and don't make them shit to take.

>>49280064
AFAIK its symbiote like venom.
Although you should totally play it as a stand.
>>

Arcanist wasn't enough.
>>
>>49280069
Agreed; NPCification makes absolutely no sense
And by 'not shit to take', do you mean make them less punishing?
>>
>>49280064
A decent example might be the aegis artwork from UltPsi, though that is also a goblin.

Venom/Carnage are decent working points as well, though I wouldn't be surprised if someone in, say, Iron Gods wanted their armor to look like a suit of MJOLNIR from the Halo series.

I'm going to get a Living Legend Soulknife as a cohort, and this shit seems awesome, but what kind of feats should i take? I've got straight up no idea where to even start. The soulknife in question is an Intknife, with a good Dex and Con score, and an int score of 25.

I'm pretty sure the main thing needed is increasing the damage.

For reference, the guy I'm trying to buff is a Warpriest, and the other party members are a Druid and a Sorcerer. I don't know what any of their combat styles are specifically, but we'll just assume they use very generic strategies.

I've always thought it was silly how people act surprised when they hear I prefer playing martial classes, and appreciate a martial's presence even if it feels like they go without saying.

And then I see a post like this and get reminded people don't play martials as often as they should.

>>49280485
Because pure martials rarely get fun toys in 1pp material.

>>49280485
Well, the Warpriest isn't a very good class, even if he is a martial. I was thinking I could help him out.

Also this >>49280517, I'd have made a Warlord if I could.
>>
>>49280517

They get enough to get by, and it's not like you can't just have a nifty fun character through roleplay and the campaign itself.
>>
>>49280485
Play martials with small amount of magic for best of both worlds
Warpriest, Bloodrager, Hunter/Ranger, they are all fun.
>>
>>49280485
Probably because 1pp martials are a pain in the ass to make useful if you want to do anything other than hit things in combat. You can still enjoy them, but they're much harder since you're fighting against mechanics.

>>
>>49281027
Well that could still depend on the character.
If you map out a Fighter's feats or an Oracle's mysteries, that's not nearly as bad as planning out which spells you need to pick up for your spellbook at every level, including via scroll shopping, killing other Wizards, etc.

Anon please, if you bump the strength to 18 with a racial +2 you'd be saving 7 points, which could be used to get a fancy 12 Charisma and have the right to call your character "one formidable dude."

8 charisma just seems like "strong faceless goon."

If you have multiple natural attacks, can you full attack with all of them and your manufactured weapons below BAB+6?

if you want something that will play more like an actual stand/stand-user combo go Fractured Mind Spiritualist. your casting stat becomes CHA and your phantom is now a force of your personality (aka FIGHTING SPIRIT) made manifest

>>49281432
Yes. You make your attack with your main weapon, and the rest of your natural attacks count as secondary attacks. Don't be that dumbass that tries to make claw attacks while wielding a greatsword though, that doesn't work like that.

So it's caster heavy and everybody is playing different classes?

Bonded Mind and Share Spells lets your casters cast their "You" spells on one another, which can be marginally useful.

Spellchain is decent enough, letting your spellcasters work together to overcome SR.

Those are about the only ones that spring to mind though.

Compared to the first module of Carrion Crown In search of Sanity cold opening and main reason shit hits the fan in the asylum is hurried and absurd at best.
In The Haunting of Harrowstone you have a build up, the supernatural phenomena start to increase exponentially until the PCs are compelled to investigate and to stop the stirring of the psycho killer ghosts in the ruined prison.
In the first module of Strange Aeons all start because a patient is possessed by a nightmare doppelganger that is a follower of Hastur and the psychiatrist treating him fucks up using experimental methods from an ancient keleshite medical book, unleashing the entity into the material world.
You spend most of the adventure fighting ghoul and doppelgangers and the haunts are uninspired at best compared to the ones of the first module of Carrion Crown.

Thematically both campaigns are heavy on horror.
The Haunting of Harrowstone showed that a low level adventure can deliver a frightening experience thanks to haunts and narrative skill, In Search of Sanity is basically a dungeon crawl without charm that has been written by an edgy teenager: Your characters wake up after having a nightmare of being hunted and killed by a Freddy Krueger wannabe, then you see one of the asylum orderlies being gruesomely tortured front of you but the doppelganger is so distracted by its sadism doesn't realize you steal its key that will release the party from imprisonment, anyone killed by the Freddy wannabe becomes a ghoul or a doppelganger...
Really, it was excruciating.

I mean, it's Horror written by Paizo, the same people that put actual stats on Cthulhu, making him something you can kill and, thus, not something that has any place in lovecraftian horror.

>>
>>49282963
Back in the day Paizo showed some taste with horror, specially with Rise of the Runelords.
In the hands of a competent GM, Aldern Foxglove becomes the most memorable villain in the whole campaign, more than the main BBEG because you meet him when is still a functional normal human being that is going through an ordeal after killing his own wife in a jealousy attack.
Then he gets infected with Vorel's Phage and he turns into an undead horror with a multiple personality disorder.
I know that the Graul Family was intended to be a tribute to old redneck horror movies like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the Hills have Eyes or Deliverance but found them more disgusting than scary.
Still none of that material is as an awful as the first module of Strange Aeons.

Actually, the user didn't imply women are incapable of it, just that the abused person sounded like a woman, because women in tabletops tend to be much shittier at standing up for themselves.

Something something a woman can say she was raped and the man will still get jailtime irregardless of any evidence, even if the women was lying, and if she admits she lied the man will be released but has no grounds to sue for any kind of returns even though he now has a criminal record and has probably been abused in prison.

You can literally google this shit and it'll be in the top three results.

You mean the ones who were psychologicaly damaged by living in a society that removes basic human dignities and limits their choices in life while presenting them with "partners" that belittle, sexually objectify, and ignore their emotionaly needs on a daily basis. Yeah they exist and they're doing that because they are women in this society. You know how fucked up a woman has to be to hurt her children? Really fucked up, nature does a fuck ton on their hormones and attachment neurology to deal with shitting screaming babies so the species can survive, it takes a lot of abuse and damage to go against that.

On the actually using the things you're actually using, Hunter for the badass companion and spells and shit, pair that with Slayer to pick up the prereq-free "Ranger" style feats as fast as possible. Or even good old Druid/Fighter. Doesn't have to be extremely fancy, but it just has to get the job done.

Yeah it's called daily testosterone spikes and the general damaging effects of high levels of testosterone being in your system. There's a reason men die younger it's cause they have literal neuron killing, blood rate increasing, and sexaul desire (read not love just stick it in regardless if it wants it not) poison being their primary gender hormone. I think women would be just as bad if they had all that shit in them too but that's just biology for you, you have to accept that men can just randomly become sociopaths and forget all human decency when their randomly spiking rage drug courses through their veins.

Lots of breaks between sessions due to life things getting in the way (work, pain, doctors appointments, etc.) I'm not complaining though; Roll20 seems to have been rolling out with some updates every-other week or so and each one seems to have chewed up the damage macros, and since we just started a crawl into a Dwarven settlement to find the cause of a demonic outbreak, shotty damage rolls is going to be a problem.

I often try to think that maybe being a dexfag is a meme and I should build str, but with every martial character I've had, I've considered going the dex route. The call of the dex is too strong.

>Define defeatist for me, please?

Based on his picture and description, I'm assuming a character that has had some traumatic event happen in their life (or has constantly happened in their life) which has caused them to believe life is cruel, petty, and probably not worth it.

>>49285962

The thing to remember is that nobody ever truly goes 100% defeatist, there will always be a spark of hope that "this time will be different" which drives them to get up every day.

A defeatist adventurer would be dead inside, someone that thinks they're already not worth the effort to save so, obviously, they might as well throw themselves at the goblins and see what happens. These characters typically gain huge successes in the field yet still continue to be defeatist, moving their goal-posts to "okay, I'm good at killing, but nobody will ever care about me or my accomplishments."

In other words, the defeatist adventurer turns into a classical cynic once they get a waifu/husbando and some admiration in the town square. Now, the defeatist does not think he is worthless, just that things will "probably" not go as planned.
