I played Nieles Payne in a previous campaign. He's a wizard. Of this list there are 4 individuals with PC class levels.

Nieles Payne, and eldery level 9 wizard who still makes money through selling spell casting services in a major city + a shop that sells wands, potion, and scroll.

Uncles Rewilh Harparr and Hony Harparr are a Bounty Hunter Slayer and Sleuth Investigator. Both of them work as members of a mercenary company named The Ash Eaters. Both are level 7.

Gyles Harparr, the character's eldest brother is a Cloistered Cleric who joined the church when the character was very young. He now serves as a frontier priest, essentially sent by the church to deal with issues to the faithful on the edges of civilization. He is level 4.

How exactly is one autist enough to taint the entire game that hasn't even started? You're not apples in a barrel, you're barely out of the fucking garden and a good orchard farmer doesn't pick fruits that are rotten before they even fall to the ground.

>>51824190
>What is your character's family like? How happy a family are they? Is there any race mixing going on there?

If my character ever has any living family members, either the DM has them get kidnapped, or they turn out to be working with the BBEG. This has happened many, many times in the past. So these days I just make it clear that my character's family is always dead at the start of the game.

But even that isn't enough sometimes, like with my current character. Even though my Paladin saw his dad (who was also a Paladin) get killed by an evil orc warlord, and ended up personally burned his dad's body in a pyre and scattering the ashes, somehow the DM still had my dad come back as a spooky ghost villain.

If my character ever shows romantic interest in an NPC, she either gets kidnapped, dies, or turns out to be a hag in disguise.

So yeah, I just kind of give up on family in RPGs.

>>51824239

Oh hush, I'm still going to apply even if Monday takes out all the Funday!

We don't know if the corpse is a corpse, or simply sleeping. The DM has not responded to anything since Friday.

The GM would have to be retarded. His modifiers are over twice what any reasonable character will come up with at that level.

Seth of Thassilon
LE male Human Wizard (Thassilonian Specialist)|Harbinger (Ravenlord)
Campaign Trait: Touched by Divinity (Lissala)
>Worked his ass off and graduated wizard school just in time for Earthfall
>Volunteered to be a guinea pig for a temporal stasis spell
>Rise of the Runelords happens, Seth gets woken up five years late after an accident fucks with the spell
>Has himself a picaresque adventure that teaches him the value of compassion
>Captured by Iomedaeans who think "oh shit a sin mage" and are still mulling over what to do with him when he volunteers to join the Crusades

There's a lot, and I mean A LOT of throat-clearing going on here. This is one of those backstories that could seriously benefit from being compressed, or at least from a pastebin link with a tl;dr version of about a couple paragraphs replacing it on the Roll20 page.

But that said, it's actually pretty good. It sets up Seth to start a character arc, provides a decent way for him to acclimate to the new Golarion, and presents a few conflicts that aren't clearly leading to just "Imma kill this guy". Having your character start with doubts like Seth has is a good idea (I kinda wish the Asmodean applicants had a bit more of that).

I like that the personality section makes no bones about him being a product of his time. He's still got a long way to go, but he's evil in a more interesting way than just being an asshole--he never knew a better way. All in all, he's a good character with plenty of room to grow...but I think he could do with a few more years. 15 is a little hard to buy for a Wizard, even a 1st-level one.

I have a player who is quite fond of tripping as a combat strategy. By and large its not been overly problematic in large melees where there's plenty of opponents to keep everyone busy, but I've got a big solo boss encounter coming up and I'd like to avoid him just running up and tripping the litch while he's in the middle of his big speech.

What options are available to me as a GM to help my monsters resist tripping without giving everyone flight or turning everyone into a centipede? I'd like to avoid invalidating my player's play-style choices entirely, but I'd also like to keep things fun, challenging and dramatic for my players. For reference, the party is level 9 and I don't like to use third party content.

>>51824432

Making them that big at the onset is not winning him any friends.

>>51824487

Casters aren't very hard-up for feats, so you could squeeze in Defensive Combat Training, for starters. Full-BAB CMD goes a long way.

Big solo boss encounters are dangerous, though, the odds you'll get action economy fucked to death are massive.

>>51824487
More legs or no legs.

As a wizard, at what point can I commit global genocide?

Assume I have access to everything 1pp, and only 1pp.

What are some ways I can go about this? What are some ways I can go about taking over Golarion? I assume I might be able to at least partially accimplish some of this, but I wanted to be sure.

Basically, what is the dumbest, most frowned upon thing I can do at levels you consider noteworthy? Not just in combat, but also sheer narrative power.

>>51824487
Put some obstacles in his way. Mirror Image. Difficult Terrain. Make him work to get close before he can trip.

It's a huge red flag. Being able to game the system is fine, because it's pathfinder and easily abused, but actually submitting it as an application is a headache waiting to happen.

>>51824521
Does the Locate City Nuke work in Pathfinder?

>>51824498
But it's silly to get angry about it. When he literally says he'll just adjust to the party what is the point of getting angry? He just described the role, classes, and back story he'll be. Why do you care what his bonus is if it is subject to change?

>>51824432

It's like if you posted a huge-breasted fuck-slut with ranks in Perform (Sexual Technique) for an otherwise normal game, and then saying you will "get rid of" all that stuff if it doesn't work for the group.

>>51824487
It's a goddamn lich, of course it should be flying. And that's assuming it doesn't just drop an Emergency Force Sphere and mock the fighter.

In general, it's perfectly fine to make an enemy occasionally immune to a PC's best strategy, especially if it's supposed to be a big boss or the like. Just don't make a habit out of it.

>>51824521
A wizard using Create Undead to create a shadow requires CL 15. The spell is 8th level so you'll need to be level 15 to cast it anyway.

Several shadows under you control released on a city will turn the entire population to shadows in a single night. You just spread from there like an infection.

>>51824566
Because this happens for nearly every game. Somebody makes something that somebody else doesn't like, so they complain about it every single thread at every opportunity. It literally doesn't matter what they make. They are the worst for making it.

>>51824583
Except it isn't? How is that remotely a good comparison? He posted a face/stealth character in a game about being a stealthy diplomat.

I have no fucking clue what you're on about here.

>>51824552
But why does it matter if he'll just adjust to what ever the party's numbers are? What do you suggest, submit the lowest numbers possible because it might offend someone if you have a high bonus? Adjusting once the party is formed doesn't matter?

>>51824608
He could make anything, literally anything, and people would still be mad.

>>51824521
Probably the easiest is to go with the old "zombie plague" standby. Turn people into undead who turn the people they kill into undead. Shadows are a great choice for pulling this off (Wraiths work alright, though not as well). Generally you want any kind of Incorporeal undead who can create spawn. It often takes too long for the people killed by corporeal undead (Vampires, ghouls, etc) to rise, whereas Shadows and Wraiths do so in just a few seconds.

Grab one with Control Undead and order it to start killing people and making more spawn. Tell it that it has to order its spawn to obey you (and order it's spawn to order their spawn to obey you, etc).

This can allow you to fairly quickly wipe out a small town or a village or even a whole city this way. At higher levels you could easily create your own Shadows, teleport them to various cities around the world, and then unleash them causing all sorts of chaos and problems.

Brihzwald/Buford
LN/NG male Ratfolk Vigilante (Teisatsu)|Alchemist (Grenadier)
Campaign Trait: Riftwarden Orphan
>Learned alchemy to make fireworks, became his clan's potion guy
>Conscripted in the last few years of the 4th Crusade
>Survived some close calls and botched ops
>Works helping a few shops in Kenabras [sic] with his other clan members

I feel like there's not much to say here, really. It's all so dry that I feel like I'm reading the Cliff's Notes of a longer application. There's no real character under here, just kind of an archetype wrapped around a stat-block.

I can see the glimmer of a personality in here, the mention of Brihzwald stuttering and looking nervous while Buford is more calm but more terse, but it all seems like it's just there for its own sake. There's little mention of what he does for himself rather than as part of his role in life.

Oh, and is it really any surprise that the campaign trait wasn't mentioned at all?

So how does the School Understanding Exploit work with Spheres of Power? Do you get the bonus sphere, the +1 caster level, and the ability? Just the sphere and ability? Caster level and ability? Ability?

>>51824689
Simple. If you need such things as a guideline and can't simple guess the general area of which to keep your optimization, then you're too autistic to game with anyway.

>>51824320
Only if it was for a game that /pfg/ at large had the opportunity to apply for. I think. We still love namefags that provide entertaining storytime every week from their home games, right?

>>51824889
What do you think the general area of optimization is for level 8 gestalt? How high should your good skills be? I remember asking this and no one being able to give a solid answer.

Let's say you have 0 class skills support and it's based on your good stat. You're looking at somewhere around +17-18 at a minimum. That's if you're relying on nothing but ranks, ability score, and it being a class skill.

Items, feats, class features, traits, racial abilities, etc. there are a fuck ton of things that could add.

Thanks guys. The litch was perhaps a bad example, as you are correct in that any litch that doesn't fly deserves all the tripping they get. I was worried more about the situation in general, as I'll probably have more solo bosses to send against them in the future. Looks like I'll just have to get creative with my encounter design. Thanks again.

>>51824905
No we hate those too. If someone posts a story as not an anon they get raged at.

>>51824964
I mean, I shouldn't say namefags that do that get a free pass, you're right. But we like our storytime, and if an Anon gives us the update on a long-running campaign sometimes /pfg/ will get surprisingly invested in that person's character and the events around them.

>>51824435
Is this the solution to the Problem of Evil?

>>51825031
I am on /pfg/ quite a lot. Never seen people really give a shit for more than individual stories. Sometimes 2-3 weeks of updates, but never more.

>>51824487
When it comes to a creature, tripping is entirely binary. Either he trips the lich, or he doesn't, which means either his main shtick was useless during that fight or it was a major advantage. The solution is to not let it be binary. Put other things in the fight that he can trip, and find a way to encourage him to focus on those enemies, at least for some portion of the fight. They don't need to keep him busy the whole time, but just long enough that the lich has time to be unchecked and threatening.

Even if the extra enemies are much too weak to actually threaten the PCs and aren't strong enough to be worth EXP, their presence as speedbumps in the encounter will alter the way the fight plays out.

>What is your character's family like? How happy a family are they? Is there any race mixing going on there?

It's times like this where I realize I only have one character with living family members that he has good relations with. Also that I don't have many characters.
>Half-elf who is in contact with his elven mother, but hasn't seen his father since he was a wee lad, and also has a half-elven uncle that's out doing whateverthefuck
>Tiefling who outlived any immediate family and never bothered staying in contact with any relatives
>two Kitsune who outlived their non-yokai relatives, though one of them has been trying to make familiars out of regular foxes in order to get one of them to become like him

In our last game our group ended up in Limbo where we killed a powerful dragon. The GM decided that, in the spirit of the plane of chaos instead of just giving us a reward, he'd let us roll on some 3rd edition random magic item table. The caveats however was no rerolls, the item would not count towards our personal WBL, and we couldn't give or trade the item to someone else (if we tried it would instantly shatter into a million pieces).

Player 1, a Warlord rolled a Rod of Lordly Might. Player 2, a Mage rolled a Ring of Fire. Player 3, the Paladin rolled a Staff of Power(!) and he is retraining to max out his Use Magic Device skill. Finally, I (a Stalker) rolled a Horn of the fucking Tritons.

Everyone then proceeded to laugh at me and call me Aquaman for the rest of the evening.

The game has not taken place around or near any oceans or large bodies of water, and the GM said that he didn't forsee anything like that happening any time in the near future.

But I want to make everyone eat their words and use my item in some really cool or creative way. Does anyone have any suggestions on ways I could make this horn useful eve in an area without any water around? Or did I just end up with a bum magic item and am I doomed to have everyone call me Aquaman for the next six months?

>>51825138
I, too, tend to not make family. Dunno why. I don't think it's on purpose. I haven't made a single character that has kept in contact with their surviving family. My most recent was raised by the mercenaries who picked her up, and thinks of them as family, but no blood relations that she knows.

>>51825081

One is a farmgirl whose parents are still alive and well on their farm. The dad is a retired hero.

And one other gal is from a ludicrously large family, but is more directly connected to her two sisters and her mom.

I didn't even think about it until you mentioned it, honestly. I was in a Carrion Crown campaign with a high death rate, then in a game where family was never really mentioned, now I'm in a game where I could actually make a character with a family, and somebody has! But... I didn't? I made her a mercenary adopted by the group when she was found alongside the road.

I want to talk about the difference between Risk and Stakes, and why knowing the difference between the two is important for a game. To start out with it is important to take both terms and define what I mean by them in the context of a game. Risk represent the threat of personal bodily harm, harm to one's possessions, or harm to one's direct contact (family, friends, etc.). Stakes is threats to larger and more abstract concepts, the political and social health of a nation, the function of organizations, etc. Games can be both high and low in both of these. This gives us four different types of games. High Risk/High Stakes, High Risk/Low Stakes, Low Risk/High Stakes, Low Risk/Low Stakes. Let us talk about an example of each.

For the difference between High Risk/High Stakes and High Risk/Low Stakes I have a common example that I use. For those who are familiar with Jojo's Bizarre Adventure this will be easy to follow. In Part 3 of Jojo the protagonists are traveling across the world fighting the subordinates of Dio, an immortal vampire. This represents a High Risk/High Stakes campaign, if they fail not only will they likely die, but Dio will go on towards a plan of world domination. Most games seem to follow this formula of High Risk/High Stakes. In Part 4 of Jojo instead the main focus is on the hunt for a serial killer plaguing a rural town. This represents High Risk/Low Stakes. Failing means the character's or the character's families could die, but if they fail the serial killer has no larger ambitions than to commit murder once every 6 months. This is tragic but not world altering. Many mystery theme'd games follow this formula.

(1/2)

>>51825745
Low Risk/High Stakes is harder to define, but where I normally see it is in things like Political Intrigue. The thread of personal harm is very low, but the fate of nations can rest on the players. For Low Risk/Low Stakes not many games follow this formula because there is not much driving force behind them.

What I want to talk about is High Risk/Low Stakes and Low Risk/High Stakes. What campaigns have you had that follow these formulas? Do you think there is anything inherently wrong or less exciting about these? Out of these four types what do you believe is the best formula? Personally I adore High Risk/Low Stakes as it feels far more personal of a game style.

This is why you always endure the first session and see how natural the banter is with the other folk.

If you can't talk with them like friends within the first 15 minutes, you might as well leave.

So, it seems d20PFSRD's list of NPCs is fucked by website move, and it no longer lets me select to see the old sight. Which means I have 0 enemies for the one-shot I'm running in about an hour.

Does anyone else know of a good list of NPC sheets I can use in a jam?

Conisder the Kami Medium archetype, which turns ALL of your spellcasting (even that from other classes) into using ofudas which trade having a physical sign (which can be removed by an ally of the targeted) for the benefit of being literally-impossible to dispel. Use it to buff allies so that the enemy wizard needs to send someone in to actually rip off the tags, or use it enemies to debuff them and force them to waste turns removing the seals on their buddies' faces!

Yeah but Kami Medium is /shit/ though. You lose access to the Archmage (!!!) and the Champion becomes extremely hard to channel unless you've got a Kineticist friend or a Druid buddy who can Control Weather (if your GM is one of those faggots who enforce Favored Locationts).

If you DO end up doing Kami Medium, ask your GM for the Archmage back, and ask if you can drop the Séance Boon in favor of not having to be at a favored location, because as it stands Kami Medium is one of the weakest archetypes for the Medium.

>>51826261
Snowball for single target (ranged). Burning Hands in AoE. Shocking Grasp at touch. You're actually right at the peak for these spells.

It is a bunch of high-level stuff. The point of the one-shot is to be a bit of a power-trip misadventure. If you have a gunslinger of any sort around CR 12-16ish, that'd be great.

This is true. For a single-level dip, Kami Medium is great! If you like Ofudas. And Ofudas are pretty nice. But it still ticks me right the heckin' heck off that it's such A SHIT ARCHETYPE.

I've always been a fan of the classic magic missile. It doesn't do as much damage as some of the other options, but you can hit multiple targets if you want and there's no attack roll or need to worry about elemental resistances. It's maybe not the best but it's the most reliable.

Does anyone have a link to some of the other games currently being run? I want to take a look at the formatting of their pages so I can properly inform y'all about how my game will work.

Shit, I just found out black blades have to be the exact same alignment of the wielder, and even change with her if her alignment changes. That puts a huge damper on doing character development using the sword. I wanted a bitterly, spitefully evil CE warrior being coaxed back to sanity by her CN sword.

According to the old myths? Quite good actually, provided you aren't a bad husband and don't give her reason to take back her seal skin and flee back into the ocean.

Alot of those older myths with monster women generally boiled down to either "be a good husband, don't abuse your wise, or you'll regret it" or "Don't have sex with random hookers, or else they eat your soul and steal your life/money"

>>51827364
First allow me to get on my RP high horse and say that unless you can figure that out, you'll basically just be playing a human with a funny race name anyway.

Okay, that's done. So what does being a Suli mean for your character? What benefits does their race bring them? What disadvantages? What does it mean for their daily life? What about their family life? Would they want to be something else, if they had the chance?

The reason people usually call 'em snowflake races is because people use them just to be weird or different (or just for the stat bonuses, and use a picture of a generic-ass anime girl anyway). Don't do that, put some thought into how a character's race shapes their life.

>>51827305

My old half-drow monk was the only half-drow in a family of like 9 siblings. He had 3 sisters and 6 brothers, most younger than him(although not by much!). His mom took good care of him when he was young, and his step-dad was an inkeeper.

When I retired the monk, he was 52 years old. He had a wife and a daughter, so when the ultimate army of evil darkness came to besiege his home city, he had to retire to keep his family safe. The party was actually kinda baffled when they eventually met his family, because they never realized how old their monk was. And they met a dude that they thought was his grandpa, but was actually his older brother. Such is the silliness of being a "Forever 20-something-looking wise sage".

Fei Xiahou's applicant here. I just wanted to say thank you for your critique of my character. I've learned quite a bit from this, and after reading your critique and the comments, I'll probably change her passage to the Worldwound from "crude raft" to "stowing away on a merchant ship". It definitely makes more sense considering how dangerous the waters between Tianxia and the main continent would be.

You did mention that it feels a lot like she belongs in a different campaign, but I'm not sure how I could rectify that without changing who Fei is fundamentally as a character. When I imagined her, I imagined a girl that was forced into becoming a hero, and throughout the journey gradually grows into an actual hero; it's kinda difficult to take that concept as a whole and make a definitive tie to WotR.

Do you have any suggestions for tying her more deeply into the campaign without changing her concept?

Thanks.

Not that guy but I honestly don't feel like she needs to be tied in any deeper than she is. You have a fish out of water concept and room for character development, with just enough of a tie-in to justify being there and sticking to it. Weakening that core might just spread her out too thin. Her teacher aspect will give her an excuse to interact with other characters.

I definitely agree with the dude that her story doesn't have enough of her in it though and that hurts her. Maybe expand on her feelings towards her mother or her relationship with her fiancee?

Are races with a natural armor bonus even desirable? You have to obviate it sooner or later with your magic equipment, which overlaps instead of stacking.

>>51828310
What are you talking about for overlaps instead of stacking? An amulet of natural armor gives an enhancement bonus to natural armor which stacks with any natural armor you already have.

>>51828310
What. Amulet of Natural Armor are enhancement bonuses. They stack.

>>51828310
amulet of natural armor stacks with natural armor, silly billy!

>>51828342
Oh, I see. I thought it was a natural armor bonus to AC. A bonus type.

>>51828360
Natural armor, like armor and shield, are a category of armor rather than a type of bonus that effect your total Armor Class.

>>51828256
Well, there's times when the spooky shit is invented by people running a con or otherwise seeking to manipulate people - the townsfolk trying to see just how wild a tale about the resort the party will buy (and loading them down with charms and trinkets to protect them from evil, for the reasonable price of a handful of gold), or maybe a group of ruffian types are trying to protect their not-entirely-100%-legal-but-no-one-was-using-the-resort hunting grounds, or maybe the youth of the town just want people over the age of 25 staying away from the place people go to fool around. Fake hauntings.

Otherwise you could have, like, werewolves or will-o'-wisps out in the forest, but they're mostly content to leave the prepared traveler alone, and the resort itself provides protection.

Of course nothing's saying the first can't turn into the second...

>>51828456
Why not both? They can be cripplingly shy, literally unable to talk to people they aren't extremely close to without locking up and stuttering.

The character has no idea who his paternal grandfather is. His father was a common-born bastard whose mother got knocked up by some wandering Elvish adventurer who got his shit kicked in and died.

So, he has to look closely at certain Elves to make sure they don't look enough like his father... You don't want to accidentally fuck your cousin.

We've actually talked about this before in my group. The alternate timeline evil version of my NG Magus goes evil because he never finds something important to protect, which anchored him to goodness. Instead of coming to see his strength as a means to protect what's precious to him, he learns that his strength IS what's precious- the only thing that's precious. Eventually, he becomes a graveknight in pursuit of more power and an immortal unlife to abuse it with. That anchor which tied him down to goodness, by the way, was a town that needed his help.

A unique artifact, though? Um... I guess it would be a second version of the plot device sword that he got in the campaign, one that came from the Bizzaro Universe his evil counterpart hailed from. Noiralog, I suppose.

We have a cheater. The DM is always giving him The Look. He doesn't seem to be aware that everyone can see that he's cheating, so my theory is genuine mental illness.

Our girls are embarrassing weebs but otherwise drama-free. The DM is constantly riding the line on whether to let some anime shit fly. Direct references are a no, but comically overdramatic sequences seep in and it's a good time.

>>51829072

The Dragon Cult believes that the planet is an unfertilized egg, and dragons are celestial sperm scattered about the planet whenever the Sun God pulls out.
