Mechanics first, refluffing is rather easy to do, and it's overally better to have something that isn't breaking the game.
>>51713797
I build concept first, then mechanics, then fluff. So basically, I decide what I want to do, do it as well as I'd like, and build a story along the wy.

>>51713373
Hey, since people posted about the Streets of Cantha game in a bunch of old threads, I think I should post my picks for the Wednesday game.
In order from earliest to latest applications:
> Wonderful who is playing Matsutoya, the Soul Knife
> B who is playing Kohaku, the Gunslinger
> Scratchyan who is playing Lorry Carnette, the Arminger
> Slowcogs who is playing Nettle the Witch
Discord links have been sent to all of them. Most other applicants met my standards and may be called on if needed.
Is there any reason to have a STR above 10 for a full-dex PoW character?
>planning Wrath of the Raunchy character

>Has squire as his butt boy
>Follows the Insinuator code of conduct, which dictates that an Insinuator must work towards their own personal glory and triumph while following what ever outsider they Invoke
>He normally invokes Inevitables because it lets him smite demons
>Plans on using this crusade to set himself up as a great hero who closed the World Wound
After reading the articles about the crusades, those seeking to become great heroes and set themselves up as international figures of importance seem to be widely represented in the crusades. A hero and savior to his allies, a scourge to his enemies, ready to carve out a place for himself in the world. I don't really have to worry about him being a prick to the party at the very least.
What I am worried about is the fact that I am going to be dealing with Iomedaen worshippers. In the morning I radiate both Lawful and Evil before I invoke inevitables, and then just Lawful Neutral. The article talks about as well the crusades can't check everyone and take all the help they can get.
However what I see as a problem is once I encounter hardcore Iomedaens, or the woman herself. Could such a character survive the trumpeting scene?
>>51713883
Carrying capacity? 33 pounds isn't a lot.
You kinda need the shoulders and belt for other stuff.
>>51713883
Not a whole lot. It will help carrying capacity if you're in a low level game that cares about that for some reason. Still, you can still usually ignore that with a cart and a camel.
>>51713871
Are the two games taking place in the same world, or in parallel continuities?
How do I run a Pathfinder Swords and Sorcery campaign? Like, mechanically. Are there any built-in options to limit spellcasters, buff martials, and generally increase lethality?
>>51713908
Bronze Age rules and limit your spellcasters to those who either gain their power from gods or demons.
thingken about exp
>>51713900
I'd like them to coexist in the same exact timeline, but it may be impossible. At the very least, I'll try to have some events from one game echo into the other.
>>51713892
>>51713897
Can't I just buy a slotless muleback cords/heavyload belt variant and also a handy haversack/bag of holding and be good forever?
>>51713853
>>51713975
>tfw you will never kill a CR 44 enemy and get a 1 billion exp reward
>>51714005
what the fuck would even count as CR 44 on its own
>>51714025
A level 44 PC
A level 33 Gestalt PC
>>51713961
Bronze age rules seem to just limit martials though, which is something I want to avoid.
>>51714043
can epic levels even go that high i thought they stopped at 30
>>51714025
Satan.
>>51714058
That's why I also said you need to limit spellcasters, if not make casters NPC exclusives.
Remember, spellcasters in Conan were always siphoning power from some malevolent god or ancient mystical energy source.
>>51714061
Epic scales forever, that was the whole point.
>>51714058
Plate armor is now called "Chain armor"
Iron is now called "Bronze"
Casters with higher than 6th level are now called "not in my fucking campaign"
>>51714043
Lucifer, Prince of Darkness, is close.
>>51714089
>>51714108
Alright, I suppose that works.
Are there any variant rules that reduce HP or something? Or perhaps make disease and injuries from wounds more interesting?
>>51714025
Great Wyrm Red Dragon with 20 class levels?
>>51714108
Here's an easier way,
>Breastplates are the apex of armor design...
>... But characters gain Strength or Constitution as AC
Any new games being made by anyone on Roll20?
>>51714142
New games are being made all the time on Roll20.
>>51714127
That's dumb though, you just have categories called "light", "medium", and "heavy armor" and you have individual members like "shitty cobbled together light armor" and "damn fine pimped out heavy armor"
>>51714142
Once the SoM playtest is out proper, I'm gonna run a playtest game for that!
What way is there to give an intelligent weapon/armor/object a body of its own? Not like, a robot body, but a genuine "turn it into a living creature" ability. Is it feasible for someone who is not a fullcaster in either vancian or spheres to do such a thing?
What exactly IS Con to AC, anyhow? Sheer toughness? Armor-like scar tissue?Deflecting weaponry with your massive breasts?
I'm making a Striker when SoM comes out and I need to know these things.
>>51714193
The latter
>>51714193
I see it as sheer toughness, kind of like natural armor, but I don't rule on flavor, so do it however you want.
Would you play a martial where you get a magical spirit that can fuse with your weapon and give it magical abilities?
>>51714170
I'm pretty sure you can have intelligent weapons use scrolls. Just grab a scroll of Magic Jar and have it use it on a living body.
>>51714193
Gonzo 2 had the answer for the third option
Rotund Recoil
PREREQUISITES: Toughness, Strength or Constitution 13.
BENEFIT: You may gain DR/slashing or piercing equal to your Strength or Constitution modifier, whichever is higher, to a maximum of your character level. If this DR successfully reduces damage from a melee attack, you may, as an immediate action make an bull rush attempt on your attacker. You may not follow the creature that you bull rush with this bull rush attempt. You may substitute your Strength modifier with the Strength modifier of your opponent targeted by this bull rush attempt, when making a bull rush attempt in this manner.
>>51714215
I have played a Bladebound Magus before.
>>51714193
However you want to fluff it. Strong Belwas from ASOIAF would be one way to go for example.
>>51714215
Fuck yea senpai, sounds rad andlike a much better version of a fighter archetype that already exists.
>>51714219
That's not exactly a body of its own so much as "putting its mind in someone else's body", though.
>>51714211
Can I just say that the flavor of Impale is stupid because it totally ruins the idea that HP is NOT meat points?
You take 5 damage from a Finesse Lancer's Impale, and now you have a weapon through your body...
What would make the ultimate meme game, /pfg/?
>>51714211
I do kinda like the idea of a fist-fighter who's spent so long hardening their body you can strike matches on their skin.
The Striker definitely looks the most fun of the SoM classes so far, Ehn. Really great work.
>>51714284
First of all you need to decide your player base. Memes come from players just as much, if not more than, premises.
>>51714300
My player base is you glorious faggots, because I love you and I want you to have fun.
>>51714263
There's already a ton of shit in 1pp that fucks with what exactly HP are supposed to represent, just roll with it.
>>51714263
There's already 1pp stuff that does impaling even worse than this, so I don't see it ruining any flavor myself. I'm up for hearing ideas on what you think would work better with impaling though.
>>51714244
So you literally have people who hit you with blunt weapons bounce off you.
i love it.
>>51714284
I'm pretty sure Downtime God's gestalt godlings game which turned into Clusterfuck General was the true meme game.
I hear there was so much stupid level optimization in it that it turned all players away from the concept of overoptimization for good.
>>51714331
>korra orc
Something tells me she'd make a way better character in a setting where there's no obligation for the heroes to to be enlightened or wise
>>51714331
>>51714368
I feel like Korra is a fine enough orc name by itself, really.
What's the best Crystalhue gift for the Urgathoan qt in your life?
>>51714381
True.
What other characters would be better off getting ported to a different setting? I kinda feel like this might help me come up with NPCs when I'm feeling unimaginative.
>>51714331
Hi Jolly, I recently looked over your vigilante stuff and there's a lot of cool things in there!
A question, though:
Mercurial Duelist's Iaijutsu Slash is a standard action to make an attack, but not explicitly an attack action.
I hear the Superb Blade talent was made specifically for this archetype, but since Greater Weapon of the Chosen needs an attack action, does it not actually work with Iaijutsu by RAW?
>>51713871
>no one talking about the fact DHB made it into a game
Who wants to see it crash and burn?
>>51714215
Damn straight I would.

>>51714256
>tfw no Strong Belwas in the show
Where's my stomach covered in scars?
>>51714436

Shelyn did nothing wrong.
>>51714494
They needed more time to show Daenerys can't act, looking smug at the camera as she speaks in a faux-threatening tone how she's a total badass.
Speaking of petty gripes,>Sansa gets raped by Ramsay, show makes this out to be a huge deal and she gets to spend a long, long time in an uncomfortable conversation with Littlefinger about how he totally let her get raped and she's going to be a strong woman now who doesn't take shit from anybody
>Theon gets tortured, castrated and humiliated for an entire season by Ramsay, when he gets away his sister explicitly tells him to either "man up and get over it, or kill yourself. Live for revenge" and this is seen as a big, empowering moment for him.
Fuck this show.
>>51714547
I want to hug Shelyn!
>>51714558
Shelyn wants to hug you!
>>51714575

>>51714331

>>51714547
>can't even save her brother from the Outer Gods
>can't even save her handmaiden from crippling depression
>can't even save her father from her brother
>>51714215
You mean Battle Host occultist?
>>51714603
N-No!
>>51714605
Hooking how? How does that work with creatures that don't wear skin, you just hook your weapon through them? Like impaling them?
>>51714452
He's even worse. Why pretend to be one of them, when he could ascend past their "usefulness" as a man? And accepting aid from one of their number, aid she only gives because the way he aggravates her kin amuses her?
Detestable in the utmost.
>>51714525
You can spend time with the ones you care for on your own time and on your own terms! You need no powers from on high to tell you that!
>>51714575
I want to propose to Shelyn after an extensive courtship!
>>51714617
>expecting her to have been places she wasn't
>expecting her to save the goddess of crippling depression from crippling depression
Why didn't you stop 9/11 anon?
Who is expecting a Harrow Medium remake as a 3pp release?
>>51714617
Her handmaiden is meant to fall so she can get close to Zyphus, so they can become lovers, and the purity of their love will redeem him and turn them both back to Good
>>51714338
It's more that we've both gained more talent at optimization, and also gained an appreciation for the simpler things in life such as "I want to play a Barbarian/Oracle multiclass".
>>51714338
Do tell.
>>51714703
I keep hoping for it, or for Paizo to get over itself and release it.
>>51714630
Yes!
>>51714658
Every party needs a pooper, that's why they invited you.
Party pooper.PARTY POOPER.
>>51714756
>>51714755
I'm considering remaking it as a sort of "hybrid" between the Release Medium and the Harrow Medium.
If you're a character from Tian Xia but you're in, like, Cheliax or wherever, is it fine to just know "Common" as a language or should you spend a point in Linguistics to know "Tian" and "Common"
>>51714835
You better heckin' spend that point in Linguistics or else I'm going to be big mad!
I need to spend a point to learn your Ching Chong, why shouldn't you?
>>51714835
You need to spend the point if you're foreign as fuck unless you get a freebie from your DM.
>>51714835
If you're from Tian Xia 'common' is Tian. You need to spend a point in Linguistics to speak Taldane.
>>51714860
>>51714855
>>51714879
Why is it that in two giant continents the common folk only speak one language?
At the same time, why does each race get it's own language?
"Common" is dumb.
Also, thanks.
So where was I? Oh yeah. Demilich on the moon, shooting undead at earth to slowly destroy it.
The first hurdle is, how the fuck can you get to the moon?
>>51714939
Teleportal.
>>51714946
Don't you have to have been someplace beforehand to do that?
>>51714923
>Why is it that in two giant continents the common folk only speak one language?
There's places that only speak Skald, Hallit, Varisian, or a myriad of other languages.
Personally, I think it's because Paizo was lazy and didn't want to admit humans from Brevoy would be unable to understand humans from Varisia, or humans from Cheliax.
>>51714962
No, just helps. There is also scrying.
Held off posting this again for a few days, didn't want to annoy people with over-repetition.
I've done some homebrew that people might like. Feedback is appreciated as these are all still in Alpha so I can't promise they are entirely balanced yet.

Up for doing archetypes for wyverns and kishin knights and shit?
>>51714923
There are four "Common" languages.
In Avistan they speak Taldane, because Taldor used to control all of it under Aroden.
In Tian Xia they speak Tian, because that was the language of Imperial Lung Wa.
In Casmaron they speak Kelish because the Great Padishah Empire has control of most of the continent.
In Garund they speak Polyglot, which is not a single language but a combination of numerous tribal languages.
And people still speak regional languages. Shoanti are often monolingual. Kellids speak Hallit.

did paizo seriously name a language "polyglot"
>>51715067
Well, it's a demilich so he's fine in space. But why the fuck would you levitate there? That would take ages. World destruction waits for no man.
>>51715081
That seems kind of OP. Then again it is a 9th level spell.
>>51714828
>>51715103
It's probably not the dumbest name they ever gave something.
>>51715103
They called the region with a lot of Aasimar "Heavenly Capital."
They are not known for their creativity.
>>51715141
>>51715128
Can we get some more dumb names from Paizo?
I love having a chuckle at that stuff.
>>51715141
So.... Tian means "heavenly?"
>>51715046
Also serious response: I have the same issue with this that I have with any other mounted archetype (and cavalier), namely that you're kind of boned if your dungeons and dragoning actually does any dungeons, and the area on the auras is a little wonky.
Other than that, though, I really like it and I'd love to give it a playtest.
>>51714939
>how the fuck can you get to the moon?

>>51715182

Yup. And -jing means Capital. It was also a former name for Nanjing.
>>51714775
How droll.
>>51714729
A convoluted and half-baked plot at best.
>>51714775
I don't know what this Yamcha is, but it sounds disappointing.
>>51713871
This was the shitty e6 game where everything fun wasn't allowed right?
Mechanics first. Then justify it through flavor.
Custom abilities are cancer.
How big of a will save should I have at level 10?
Before buying items, mine's 11. Should I invest heavily or will a cloak of resistance +3/+4 be enough?
Never made a character above like level 6, so I dunno the standards at all.
>>51715046
Technically you can do that with Drake Companions. You know, if you want something shit. Jolly is also, iirc, working on non-shit versions.
I might do it later though. There isn't really much in the Fire Emblem front that can't already be easily done (Generals fit happily into Warder, Swordmasters into Stalker or Harbiger etc)
>>51715212
Yeah, I ran into when doing some white rooming the issue with 'Flying Cav + Paladin Auras = Nobody is getting affected'. Which is why it was changed to be a column of infinite height (So that anyone above or below you can get it) and to expand as you level.
And yeah, that's an issue with mounts...but not one I'm really sure if there is an easy way to fix other than 'Assume your GM won't be a dick and make the game all in environments you can't play in'
>>51715349
Go for +3.
Also a cloak of displacement is totally worth it for enemies without true sight.
>>51715349
See if you can find some way to get a reroll or two in an emergency. With that and a cloak you'll be fine.
When going into Mammoth Rider, is it possible to keep your original Animal Companion (if your mount/steed) or do you need to exchange it for the few listed in the class?
I know the GM can give leeway on what works but by normal means would you have to give up your Companion for one listed in Mammoth Rider?
>>51715349
An enemy caster by level 11 can be pushing saves into the DC 23-26 range. On the high end this means that you're stuck with only passing on a 15+.
However a DC 26 is coming from a full caster and from his best school.
>>51714939
won't looking up and using greater teleport get it done in an instant?
>>51715346
This is what I do. I decide mechanically what I want to accomplish then build a character around my mechanical choices.
>>51715364
>drake companions
WHY WOULD YOU EVER
>>51715364
If you want a draconic companion DHB's does it best with the Wyvern Rider.
>>51715409
Hence 'You know, if you want something shit'.
I might do Wyvern Knight later but it's trickier as the big lizard is itself rather more of a force than the pegasus is. The Pegasus is, at it's core, a winged horsie not an iron-skinned flying death lizard. Which both means that the companion requires more investment and costs the class more at any time it can't use it. It's a bit tricky.
>>51715491
There we go. Someone else has already done it.
CR 1 opponent = 400 exp
Do you think it's fair to budget (and reward) players as if CR 1 opponent = 200 or 300 exp if you give them gestalt and what not?
Tell me about that character you want to play, but can'tbecause people might judge you.

I used to have a female paladin backstory built up that I kind of fell in love with
Almost played it in a game in /gamefinder/ but the DM was just kind of a twat, which led to me griping about him. He read the entire backstory, a 9 page document, then said it was okay, but I had to shorten it because it was too long.
>already read it
>have to shorten it
>Why? because fuck you I"m the DM
/gamefinder/ had a fucking coniption calling me the worst cancer in the entire board because how dare I talk back to the DM, I should be lucky to lick his precum off the floor!
Then the DM showed up, pissed off at me, didn't say anything in skyp to me either, and bitched me out anonymously to a chorus of cheers. Even though I had literally said multiple times that the only thing wrong was telling me to shorten the backstory HE HAD ALREADY READ was a twat move and was otherwise fine. And then he linked my backstory document while I wasn't online, so he could bitch about me being a special snowflake because I made female Guts.
I came back to over 200 emails about comments on my backstory from about ten different people shitting all over it or just flooding it with spam.

Depends on what you expect from a backstory
Most of the shitters were of the mindset "HOW FUCKING DARE YOU EVEN HAVE A BACKSTORY? I AM THE STORY TELLER! ME ME ME! YOU ONLY GET TO DO THINGS IF I LET YOU!"
>>51715884
No, it's locked away forever in my googledrive now.
This board has given me enough heart ache over my characters.
>>51715915
I like it. I would've let you play, Anon.
>>51715915
I've seen worse.
And written much, much worse.
>>51715915
But I want to see it, Anon. Show me!
>>51715838

>>51715962
Any normal DM would have
This guy demanded five character pitches and was getting flooded with responses. This started because he was kind of autistic and didn't realize I was being serious when I said "Hey, I'm really strapped on time right now, but I wanted to throw my hat in the ring. I can link you one of my favorite backstories if you want to see what I'm like, and if you like it I'd love to adapt it to the setting." and then dropped him the link and bolted because I actually did fucking have things to do.
So rather than saying "hey man, you still need to give some other character pitches" he just okayed that one, with an asterik of adjusting it for the campaign.
And he further couldn't understand the difference between "yeah, I'd be happy to adapt it to the settingwhich you haven't told me fucking anything about,but why the fuck should I shorten it? You've already read it?"
>>51715861
Not with that attitude!

Literally nothing wrong with that story to me. Just because something sounds like something else doesn't mean you can't make it your own and do something different over the course of the game. It just sounds like /gamefinder/ was full of bitchy 12 year olds that day and you got the shortest end of the stick possible.
What is the one thing in your current game that you just can't wait for?
Reaching level 7 and grabbing Improved Familiar so I can get mycalligraphy wyrm

it's not quite as high-pitched but she squeals like a little pig when she's excited or happy
>>51716054
Any advice? I think she could be really endearing, but I've never applied to one of those games before
>>51715672
Little fuzzy bodies, big scritchable ears. Though as >>51716081 points out, they can be quite shrill.
>>51715915
Coming from the person who jokingly called it bad fanfic, the fact that you can only describe it in terms of other characters makes me worry I was correct.

>>51716067
I guess that makes sense, but it sounds fun, like my kind of fun. It's a shame, Anon, a crying shame!
>>51716095
Many things, but I can't wait for the big reveal to happen!Except there's probably like, three of them!
At what level is it worth it to buy +4 ability items rather than +2s?
Just leave the implication that your character enjoys having sex or doing something sexual. Maybe make a joke of just what exactly her "unique way with a [polearm goes here]" looks like to her comrades.
But gotta let you know, there's somebody else whose schtick is "healslut with a glaive", so might want to take a look at their app or talk to them a bit and see about differentiating yourself from them some way. Maybe some kind of darker, demonic-looking, but ultimately good-hearted counterpart to them?
>>51716151
>mfw the session was probably super comfyWhat was your lewdness set to, though? Has anything happened yet?
Anyone have that google doc with the derived stats calculator?

>>51716187
The lewdest it got was Onryou doing some mild Aranha bullying by squishing her against her.
Do you guys think it's weird to make a character with a companion and then make that companion be your character's love interest?
>>51716275
yes
>>51716275
Not really, though it depends on the group.
>>51716275
It's a little masterbatory, but not that weird.
>>51716182
I'll think about it. You bring up some good points. Though I envisioned her as a strong combatant with intense, demonic urges that have to be channeled into athleticism and performance to be kept in check, not a healslut. Aren't those usually super submissive and useless?
>>51716275
Kinda sorta, love interests should either be something you have as a backstory NPC or a person you meet over the course of a campaign.
>>51716275
Can't you just lust after another player like normal person?
>>51716309
As long as you make her a strong, sexually dominant and assertive young woman than you've absolutely got an edge against the other folks.

Does it get worse if they're a humanoid and a fey and also4 size categories apart
>>51716321
But anon, my character's backstory love interest and the fruit of that union was half the conflict in our campaign.
>>51716334
>Does it get worse if they're a humanoid
No.
>and a fey
No, mine was a Fae too.
>and also 4 size categories apart
That's... Less a "no" and more a "the logistics involved are just absurd."
Why can't you leave it as "we're totally in love with each other although we can't actually bang?"
>>51716334
one dude gave a Lyrakien Azata a tonguebath, so I think you're probably good. It'll be weird as fuck for the other players, though.
>>51716216
Onryou's both hard and squishy!
So, a question for you folks that I've never really been able to wrap my head around. why do people play the opposite gender in games like pathfinder? What do you get out of it?
I basically always play women, since that's what I am, and I don't really see why men would want to play women, or women would want to play men.
Am I just being stupid and missing something obvious?
>>51716405
>What do you get out of it?
Sexual satisfaction.
>>51716380
>>51716376
I didn't mention anything sexual, you did.
>>51716416
Then in that case yeah, there's nothing wrong with it. Kinda cute, actually!
>>51716405
There's little reason not to.
Why should I shy away from playing a girl? I could play a whole slew of things that are way more different from me than a girl is, so why not?

>>51716412
>>51716405
It sounds really stupid but i feel like i can get away with a lot more if i play a woman instead of a man.
That and some archetypes sound more interesting with a woman instead of a man...
And going back to vidja.
"If i'm going to be staring at an ass for hours on end, it better be a good one."
>>51716404
Relaxed muscles are actually incredibly soft and warm to be engulfed in!
That said, she'd probably be engulfed in those huge tits first!
>>51716376
Reduce person and enlarge person remove the logistical issues for quite some time if you extend them both.
>>51716405
I find it much easier and enjoyable to make fun characters as chicks. Sort of why it's fun to have some girl wielding a giant anchor or other huge weapon.
>>51716445
>"If i'm going to be staring at an ass for hours on end, it better be a good one."
>He doesn't like man ass
Wow
>>51716323
Cool. I might give it a shot. It would be really fun to get to play something out of the ordinary. In all my face-to-face games I'm pigeonholed into being Helpful Joe the Cleric or Cleric Equivalent in every game ever because it's what people expect. It's nice to be needed, but it's very same-y.
>>51716465
but only a few people can actually pull off decent man ass.
>>51716405
I spend a lot of free time thinking about different nuances of characters, and if they're cute girls, I'm able to jerk off while I do it, so it's good multi-tasking that benefits my prostate health in the long term, and relieves stress too!
>>51716405
The same reason I play non-humans or casters - why pretend to be what I already am?
>>51716405
Novelty. I play a guy at least 95% of the time, might as well mix it up a bit for the other 5%.
>>51716454
In this specific case it's even easier since it's the Diminutive fey that's male.
Not that I've put thought into that sort of thing.

So my past 4 characters are an even split, two male, two female. Honestly, I don't see a major difference between them. Like, yeah, if I was ERPing it would change things up, but I'm not doing that so it's just changing the M to an F or vice versa. I can play a flamboyant male Varisian as easily as a seductive Taldan lass, or a straight laced Molthuni lord, or a minor Absalomi lady. Just toss a coin.

It was just abbreviated for the sake of greentexting a 9 page backstory.
Is there something wrong with knowing exactly where your inspiration is coming from? Would your opinion be different if I told you she's from a non-denominational paladin sect dubbed Book Burners because they hunt down these grimoires and destroy them, hopefully before they destroy and consume their hosts? That the one she's hypocritically carrying is the closest to a "perfect" grimoire in existence and she's using it as bait to lure out the salesman? Or would you write it off because I'm cribbing from Kibashima the Arm's Peddler's books of truth as well as FMA's gate of truth?
>>51716699
can you somehow make them use command words?
or have something else expendable use command words near them?
or remote-activate command word items?
if so, rig them with 20 feather token: tree each

>>51715582
Ran a successful proper combat encounter for my party.
The group got ambushed by some Lizardfolk Zombies and Kobold Skeletons in the swamp, after being caught in an ambush that was set by the necromancer who controlled the undead.
The party's Lizardfolk Skald almost died. It was great.
>>51716587
Okay, Medium has a couple of decent choices for a Melee-focused Paladin-clone.
Agathion-channeling nets you a SECOND pool of Lay On Hands (imo the best choice here)
Angel gets you even heftier defenses
and Archon lets you actually debuff swarms of enemies
You get those benefits regardless of the spirit you choose to channel.
Just look back to protohumans. To a guy, another guy was competition for breeding. Girls werent breeding competition for other girls, he can just dick both of you.
Result is that the human race tends to like girls more than guys.
>>51716730
That summary is a lot better than 'my character is Guts but a lady and Griffith is her brother and the happy mask salesman sold her a book that's totally a behelit so she's out for revenge'.

I am a guy. My female characters have been the following:
>Granny "Grizzly" Griselda, Witch VMC Oracle. She ran a Bakery/Orphanage/Terrorist Cell.
>Theobaldus Ignatius Quinn, The Last Raven, a noble daughter who had a belt of sex shift tattooed on her as an infant, grew up as a male, only learned about the complicated mess recently
>Victoria, The One Man Holocaust, for most of that adventure people thought she was a man. She spoke in a rough voice, had her hair cut short, wore large flame retardant clothing, and generally has the mannerism of a male.

I like to think that she'd really appreciate someone who was fit and funny, someone that could help her unwind, since she strikes me as busy to the point of obsession with religious displays, her performances, quests, and feats of athleticism, to keep her slumbering demonic nature in check. Someone eager to please who could make her smile and laugh would be really nice because it would give her a chance to live a little, you know? A breath of fresh air in a life of working hard and sweating harder to serve the god of athleticism and to please the crowds.
I think she could give somebody like that the greatest private show of their life.They should also be willing to stomach a little brutally violent domination on the nights where her dark heritage gets the better of her and she's forced to cut loose and take her prize by the abyssal voices within her soul.

I don't see why that should stop you; if anything, you'll be more capable of defending yourself in light armor since there shouldn't be anything stopping you from wielding a chainsaw or plasma sword, and you should be able to attach a personal forcefield generator to most clothes.

Everyone is super nice and funny and knows the system really well, the GM is extremely experienced and well liked by every player he's ever had, being renowned for his ability to craft a compelling setting and run extremely fun and engaging games, filled with intrigue, combats that reward genuine strategy, and he's got a big house with a hot tub that you can play it.

>that catch
Haha, joke's on you anon,the best kind of campaign I can imagine would just be a giant tumerous mass of houserules anyway, so this changes nothing!
>>51717827
Sure, why not? Witch is one of my favorite classes.
>>51717827
Yeah. Now I don't have to spend tons of hours making a super optimized build just so I can role play.
>>51717736
No.
How do I pic related, /pfg/? Specifically, the ability he's using, not Chen himself. That was answered last thread for another guy.
>>51717874
Righteous! We'll be unstoppable partners both on andoffthe battlefield.I tend to make male characters though, just warning you.
>>51717827
No, because my presence would likely ruin it for everyone.
>>51717736
>>51717897
I only make virginal female characters with daddy issues, I hope that's okay.
>>51717897I tend to make characters whose parents didn't hug them enough, just to warn you
>>51716405
Men want to play pretend women in games for the same reason you play pretend woman on /pfg/
>>51717944
I tend to make fantastic huggers, so you're in the clear here!
>>51717937And I tend to make fatherly types, I'm going to daughteru you so hard!

How do I build Fighters that do things other than damage? Maneuver and field control shit.
>>51718025
Hahahahahahahahahahaha.
Hahahahahaha.
Hahaha.All memes aside, I actually don't know.

I suppose that depends on how high of a level you're talking about here. Anything below like, level 7 and you're either gimping yourself to do one thing other than DPS well, but I feel like once you get to like, level 15 you've got so many feats to work with that I feel like you could probably do anything, and you're also probably high enough level that you can qualify for prereqs instantly.
>>51718025
Siegebreaker is pretty good at Overrun and Bull Rush. If you spec into tripping as well you could use a weapon with Quaking to trip in an AoE, maybe combo it with Brute style and/or Wolf style.
>>51718025
Lore Warden Fighter (for what basically amounts to getting YUGE bonuses to CMB) with a dip into Brawler to facilitate becoming an Iron Caster as well so you're not gimped out of combat. Also so you can suck from the delicious titties of Martial Flexibility and get any Maneuver feat you need at the moment.
>>51718083But I'm a boy... and a rogue... and this dress is stolen.
does anyone have the dr. strangelob guide saved anywhere? the site is gone.
>>51718085
She should take better care of her clothes-she's going right through the knees of those pants.
>>51718166
The old one, like the one that didn't even have ultimate magic in it? Why not just use Jolly's, the good guide:

So what archetypes are good for a Druman ratfolk alchemist with a leaning towards a hallucination tumor familiar?
>>51718215
What do you want him to do besides have a brain tumor that's causing hallucinations?
>>51718255
Some sort of healing would probably be nice. I'm going for that mad doctor vibeand I have no idea about alchemist archetypes.
So I've seen plenty of builds for people wanting to make Megumin, but what about Darkness? Is there a way to make a character that's physically strong (and probably super durable, girl somehow has DR AND some kind of SR as far as I can tell, or maybe that's just her armor) but can't hit for crap? Is it just as simple as doing a martial class with a weapon they're not properly trained in using?
>>51718329
High level Mageknights do get a DR-like ability but against magic damage...
About the hopeless inaccuracy thing, I don't really know. Big exotic weapon you're not proficient with, maybe. Seems like it wouldn't be fun to play, though, KonoSuba's charm partially lies in the fact that the entire party is dysfunctional and not particularly good at their jobs.
>>51718329
>Is it just as simple as doing a martial class with a weapon they're not properly trained in using?
This.
Darkness is basically an Expert acting like a Paladin.
>>51718361
I dunno, if you know you're going into a game and everyone involved knows they're going along that route I get the feeling your party knows not to take it too seriously. Plus, just like in the anime those moments where your janky build actually does something USEFUL for once probably feels bloody amazing.
>>51718329
I guess she has something related to Combat Expertise or a feat chain improving fighting defensively, like Crane Style or something.
For you, /pfg/: https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/69210/taldor-ascendant
Should I make a dashing Half-Orc Warlord || Bard (Celebrity) for Wrath of the Raunchy named Hugo Baus (pronounced Huge-O, or Huge Orc) who wants to get tough and strong to unite the Belkzen tribes and guide them to solving their squabbles through flexing more than fighting?

That's going to become really normal around here what with all the witch hunting and hostility and extended harassment going on here.

Spontaneous Healing and Healing Touch would probably do for the mad scientist vibe, don't know if you want to go for Chirurgeon with your flavor.
Also, the Mad Scientist archetype.

why even have fucking stats
>>51718575
It's called not shitting where you eat.

Oh shush.
>>51718575
>>51718541
Let's be fair, he wrote a fair amount in the set up post. This doesn't feel like a bamboozle.
>>51718575
>>51718527
Did you read the set-up? It's actually well thought-out and focused more on gathering allies against Qadira than "haha fucking shit up."
Oh gosh oh gosh,I want to make a duelist but I'm already playing one in a /pfg/ campaign.
>>51718595
>>51718589
>>51718569
Those are all fair, but it's still a bit skeevy when we've already got MolthuneGM having tricked a perfectly-fine group of players, alongside Sky Pirates still not having spoken in a week.
>>51718365
She's actually abnormally tough. Far more than just a purchase of toughness, there.
Guardian-focused living legend using morning prayers to eris as her daily focusing might actually make sense.
>>51718595
Could've been taken from elsewhere already anyways. Maybe he didn't even write most of it.
>>51718365
Darkness can tank a Megumin Explosion to the face after getting hit by a literal goddess' smite.

Her ARMOR gets destroyed by it, and she's just there having an orgasm in the middle of it all.
>>51717711
Y'know, if you're going to keep pushing that meme, you should probably just post your app already, dude.
>>51718329
I accidentally'd a build similar to this about two years ago using a Sacred Shield paladin using a tower shield, Bodyguard, and all the things that make aid another good, like the halfling trait. Due to pumping Con and Charisma, my Strength ended up around 14, which, combined with my shit luck, meant I missed actual brick walls. Would really like to revisit it now that Mobile Bulwark is a thing.
