Pathfinder General /pfg/

Character ideas edition!

What character ideas do you have that you haven't used yet? Is it because you just haven't found a campaign that fits? Or because of chargen? Tell me about all your ideas!

Plenty of them, often too much to list. Let's also share fun facts we know about Pathfinder- 1pp and 3pp wise! That would be fun, yeah?

Fun Fact: the Gambler kineticist archetype has 1 more power known than all other 6th-level manifesters, discounting the Empath Medium (who doesn't actually have Powers Known until they take Expanded Knowledge). It starts play with 2 1st-level powers and ends play with 21, precisely 1 more than the Cryptic, Dread, and PsyWar have.

What do y'all think about the deities that made it to Starfinder core?

I gotta admit, I'm starting to like Damoritosh
>>
>>54240608
I've got about a half-dozen ideas that all require a campaign with high point buy, high level (level 9-11) and ideally Gestalt. Mythic would be appreciated!

It's not really anything mechanical I need for this, I just really want to crack my creative knuckles and work on a character who's already a mover and shaker of the setting. Backstories tell the story of your character, and a high-level backstory makes me feel like a Skald.

I have a few that are semi-race locked, but they're like that because the campaign in which I'd like to use them has detailed societal shit for races, so there are issues unique to certain races.

I'd like to play an Ungermaw as an ex-member of an anti-magic taskforce. I'd like to play a Half-Orc steppe horse archer. I'd like to play a noble swordsman. I'd like to play an iaijutsu practitioner. I'd like to play a Void Prophet. I have lots of mechanical things I'd like to play, and they lend themselves to certain personalities I have in mind. I'll probably never get to play most of them. Whatever.

Not enough games and not enough time for enough games besides. I would like to play a gnome wizard who apprenticed to his father and wants to finish his deceased parent's work of trying to create a new color. Not like a new hue or shade, but an eight color for the rainbow.

Well, you have to understand that /pfg/ characters are always attractive, so that gives him some plausible deniability.

>>54240966
Luthaya almost ended up being an apprentice to Khonnir but I decided against it in the end, under the line of logic that training in magic might help her recover her memories. I didn't like the way it felt and she's a Sorcerer, not a Wizard.

So, it could have been one more.

No there isn't, technologist is needed for characters to interact with so many things in the campaign and the feat itself does like NOTHING.

Technologist is not needed at all. To be honest the tech items are hot garbage.

No, I don't believe that's all there is too it, this wizard has some kind of ulterior motive. Think about it.

>Three girls, one an attractive aasimar who would be easy to deceive, one a kobold who no one would miss if she went missing, and Val, who we know almost nothing about unless we look into the AP itself for info
>Connall, a handsome Kellid man. Depicted with a spear, a phallic symbol. Rogue, a class known for backstabbing, which could be a euphemism, and commonly called "dickass" rogues.
>Dark skinned halfling boy, exotic. Just the right height that his face would meet a human male's crotch
>And an inanimate suit of armor, brought in so that no one in town would start to suspect his motives
>All of them (except the armor, who is a decoy, and Conall, who would likely be the pitcher) have low strength, meaning they likely couldn't resist if a grown man with magic powers were to force himself on them
>With his positive reputation in Torch, it would be difficult to come forward with such information as a victim, for fear of nobody believing them.

How far does the rabbit hole go, /pfg/? Look behind the lies, you know wizards have no sense of right or wrong!

There's a few that provide wildshape options, but I think all of the wildshape-focused ones are pretty underwhelming.

Now there's a callback

Most wizards are pedophiles and perverts. But they ain't got shit on the druids. Neither of them have an ounce of charisma in their bodies, but the druids have these secret rituals in the woods, they call it the Druidic Grove. It's where they teach new druids their secret tongue, and bind them to the group by forcing them to partake in horrid sexual orgies with children. The shame and the taboo makes them all complicit, and thus unable to speak out about it. I have some scrying of one of these rituals that I managed to get when I was sneaking in to prove it.

Let me tell you, you see a druid with a goat head, you kill him if there's any way you can. You don't want to know why.
>>
>>54241602
What about Mesmerists?
>>
>>54240608
I played in a game as the GM's custom octopus-girl race. Combined that with Aberrant Aegis, UMonk, and Stalker to get 8 tentacle attacks, each with grab and 4d6+10 constrict. It turned on just when the campaign kinda crapped itself, so I'd kinda like to go further with the character. I actually really liked her as a character as well as the mechanical stuff I did with her. It'll never happen again, which kinda sucks, but is probably for the best.

>>54241441
You've got a point, and in fact that brings up another question; Why do they all want to save him? All of them, even the armor, want to rescue this man, possibly invalidating my suspicions. BUT! Remember that Khonnir is a wizard, and wizards can cast enchantment spells. What spells could a low-level wizard use to cover his tracks? Charm Person, Hypnotism, Memory Lapse, Sleep, ALL of which are level 1 wizard spells. He could do as he pleased, and either they wouldn't resist, or they wouldn't remember anything that happened.

Worse yet, if this is the case, we could even theorize that he's responsible for the kobold's choice of attire. She's exotic, small, normally acts smug and arrogant; The perfect toy for a depraved wizard to break. He uses magical suggestions to make her dress like a slut, let her flaunt her stuff and turn her nose up at others. And then, when she's under his spell, he takes her back to his Back Room and ravages her, breaking her and then ensuring that she never remembers it, just so he can do it all again.

The halfling, and his motivation to save his real father. What's been keeping him in Torch for so long if he's been meaning to get out and stage a rescue? Perhaps the wizard has been using his spells to persuade him otherwise, and lure him into the Back Room again. And for that matter, who's the machine that saved him in the first place, and why would she just leave him in front of Torch, why Torch specifically? Well I only know one person in Torch who knows how machine's work, and that would be Khonnir Baine!

But we don't know just when this horrible person strikes. Does he get them while they're young, or groom them into his little pets once they're grown? Is Connall, his gay lover, in on this whole thing, or has Khonnir been hiding it from him all along? Why does the AP give us almost no information on her? Someone, get me non-spoiler information on this girl, stat!
>>
>>54240608
So many ideas. So few chances to play them. Often it's because people don't like 3pp stuff. Or realizing that they don't quite fit the tone of this particular game. Or PF being an ass-backward pile of suck fucking hell why doesn't the Waves oracle get any spells with the water descriptor and why are there so few with the descriptor at all?! Others I'm just waiting on a DM to get around to running a game that's planned after his current campaign but worried about his style because he tends to run very gamist sessions where NPC interaction basically doesn't happen and you just run from point A to B to C to do the fights, solve the puzzle and get your goal before off to the next area.
>>

Of course she'd say that; That's because he programmed her to be just like that. That filthy wizard WANTS her to prioritize other things over him, otherwise there'd be no point in breaking her over and over again. The fact she considers saving him to be a bonus at all is proof of just howmany times he's broken her in; Eventually, she'll lose her mind entirely and won't be able to think about anything except the old man that comes to give her a 'treat' in the back room where he'll keep her.

>>54241854
My god, they're building resistance. Conall likely isn't under any control, meaning he's either in on the whole thing, or completely unaware of what his gay lover is doing. Semzaya and Rashin building resistances must be their subconscious' fighting back against the control, while Cynn is either too weak-willed or too far gone to build any such resistance.

And what about Rashin in particular? Let's take a look at his sheet.

>Disable Device: 3 ranks
>Escape Artist: 1 rank

I think he might be the most aware of the three. Little by little, he must be planning his escape. He's learning how to pick locks and slip bonds on the side, when Khonnir isn't looking. Notice the single dagger in his possession as well; Possibly a weapon to attack his captor after slipping his bonds?

We still need to know how much of this Conall knows about, and also, we need to know more about Val and how she fits into this. She was the first of the bunch, the Patient Zero as it were. She may be in the deepest out of them all...or, perhaps, she might be part of it as well.

After trying to research more information on Val, I've come to the conclusion that there's almost nothing out there about her (at least, without looking into the AP itself). Khonnir has a very short entry in the Pathfinder wiki, and Val is listed as his adopted daughter, but nothing else is listed about her. So, we don't know who she is, where she came from, or what she's like.

However.

I did manage to find a statblock, which supposedly was for her. Looking into it, I could only find one social skill she has a rank in; Want to take a guess at what it was?

Intimidate.

I think Val is in on it. I think she's been entirely dominated by Khonnir, and now he uses her to kee an eye on the others, keep them in line. She's his eyes on the inside, his mole.

If he hadn't gone missing, I would say it's time to call the Numerian police. Throw the book at him, this wizard's corrupt.

Why does this look so much better than all the other fantasy/isekai anime that are out right now? How can a capes series like BnHA look equally appealing across multiple genres?

I already applied anon! I was just shit posting because I'm a horrible human.

>>54242564

>>
>>54242580
Because BnHA is basically a fresh injection of life conceptually onto the Nipland mindscape, it takes Western style heroes and looks at them from a very japanese perspective, which creates a cool cultural mishmash.

It also benefits from having EXTREMELY appealing character design and heroic themes. Those character designs are easily adapted to the fantasy setting
As you think about this, realize that Pathfinder is essentially capeshit in a fantasy setting already, capes to fantasy works pretty well.

Finally, Fantasy/Isekai anime are all shit, because Isekai is in itself, the worst cancer.

Would you rather an evil party or a good party for Iron Gods? Personally I'd like to see an evil party systematically eliminate every major source of power in Numeria just to instill their own cruel rule over the land.

Only after the first arc though. Because good lord does it drag its heels through the edgefest for the first part.

Actually, how would one stat Shieldbro? I feel like it would start with a Skirnir Magus, but I'm not sure where to go from there.

>>54242809
Yup. He gets kinda better over time, but its a slow character rebuilding, much like Guts but not as well written

>>
>>54242598
I think the issue is what my own DM ran into. She gets mentioned a half dozen times as a rival, cohort and even potential PC replacement but with no details. Does her stat block even show up in the first book? Because my DM had given up finding stats for her, written her up as a Wizard and introduced her to the party before he ran into her actual stats and the only mention of her age anywhere. An age that really seems like two different people worked on her fluff and crunch and never spoke to one another.
>>
>>54242816
Don't take it too hard. I'm the paranoid anon, and one of my characters is among the three supposedly being abused. I'm just having a good laugh about something I noticed (the large amount of people with connections to Khonnir) and decided to spin into something silly.

Say you had a character at level 8, and were given the choice of going Gestalt. The way it would work would be that you buy the level to get it in your gestalt track, or you save to continue your normal class.

The gestalt track is on Fast progression until level 5, then normal progression. Both tracks are on normal until 10, then slow after that.

Assuming you're going to be fighting appropriate difficulty either way, would you go gestalt?

That's really great. Which character is your favorite for her to interact with and why?
>>
>>54243017

That's nice. Now and again, I have a character idea that sounds great, but the more I play it, the less I enjoy it. Glad to hear that's not the case for you.
>>
>>54242983
So you can either turn your upcoming levels into gestalt, working up the second track from level 1 but it's going to always lag a little bit, or just advance normally?

Honestly I'd probably keep going normal class levels, the gestalt isn't going to catch up enough to help for a loooong time, won't advance feats or other features and is generally a sort of nice thing maybe but not worth delaying progression for. Maybe work up through gestalt later if still an option, but it's not a great one in the situation you proposed.

Hello salt my old friend.jpg
52KB, 1280x720px
Hey guys, I have something I need to talk to you guys about, and I need some earnest adivce.

So, I've been sitting through all this memegame hullabaloo ever since the original RotJR first advertised and we had the long age of thirsty app creation. Now, Whenever I see and read these memegames, I always want to at least try to make a character, but each time I end up stopping part way due to realizing my schedule would never fit it. However in spite of that, chargen is my favorite aspect of Pathfinder, and I absolutely love making characters, but I always feel discouraged ue to knowing I'll never play them.

So, I've been furnishing an idea. What if I could make a character, but at the same time set them up for "rent" for lack of a better term, and allow other people who show an interest in the characters to play them instead. That way, I'll still have the chance to make a chracter, and said character would still have a chance or opportunity to potentially see use and play, and not be just a pointless pieces of numbers and words that will never see the light of day.

Do any of you think this is a good idea, or no? Further, how and where should I keep these characters that I'll make in order to be more easily able to share them?
>>
>>54243030
Honestly they're all great because the party is really varied in personality, hard to pick out a favorite. Mei is especially cute though because he really doesn't -get- her Chuuni act, while others accept it, ignore it, or outright play into it.
>>
>>54243060

Funny, this reminds me of the time some random guy on R20 "applied" to play as someone else's character.

If you're comfortable drawing up characters for random people to play, I imagine you'll get some takers. Maybe a pastebin or something?
>>
>>54242998
Ah, sorry Broodie. Didn't mean to bully, but the low will save and haughty attitude just led to where it did. For what it's worth, Rashin is just as much bully bait himself. Small size and 8 Strength means he's not fending anybody off.

You know, I think we really need something like a PLD Living Lewd Game to soak up all this thirst

Just, everyone makes a level one and they can RP and fuck each other. Have a few people as sanctioned loot givers. Doing a good scene means they advance a level and get some loot. You can track your sheet and roll the dice if you want, but it's there for the fucking.
>>
>>54243048
You make good points. At the least I should probably give feats and ability increases from the gestalt track.

Being forced to write out backgrounds in the typical PFG way masks a lot of what makes shitty players shitty. If someone spends enough time they can polish up a shit to look pretty good.

>An incredibly gaudy woman who with a gold elemental ancestor who needs to eat about 1 gp worth of gold dust, leaf or foil a day to survive. She can turn anything she touches (including air, flesh or even herself) to what looks like gold, but it's actually worthless pyrite
>Alternatively the same girl but she can change anything's inertia (not just mass, but resistance to change)
>Another girl who can cast visual-only illusion spells (shadow conjuration is allowed) with her raw physical strength rather than a mental stat

There was a FCFS RoW game and it's been going quietly for a while.

>>54244822

Not true, currently in a game with one person who makes regular spelling mistakes. I'm not even sure they actually know English.
>>
>>54244817
2hu can't play on Roll20 right?
>>
>>54244817
I mean, speaking -as- broodie, if a game was FCFS i'd probably be less willing to just jump in, the apps system, awkward as it is, gives me a lot of leeway to just make characters and throw them, knowing my shit availability won't get me into most.

When calculating the crafted cost of an item, how do non magical upgrades factor in? Like the weapon upgrades from AA2? Are they discounted as well?
>>
>>54245004
You add up all the mundane costs at full value, then add enchantments on top of that. So a +1 longsword with two upgrades is 15 gp for the sword, plus 300 for masterwork, plus the cost of each upgrade, plus 2000 for the +1.
>>
>>54241058
Obviously he's secretly Zordon...
>>
>>54245075

So weapon upgrades can be crafted at 1/3 cost as normal?

Does the vulnerability to silver/cold iron applies with mearly touching things made of that material or do you have to stab with it?
>>
>>54245428
I would say it has to be damage unless there's some other thing specified about the creature touching it

You might roleplay the touching of the metal to be very uncomfortable for the creature

How would you simulate how cumbersome are real Greatswords? What about Polearms?
>>
>>54246007
They're not actually cumbersome in a fight, and there's already the reach penalty. Otherwise you'd have to go for something like Song of Swords, which has gradual penalties for fighting at non-optimal range.
>>
>>54246007
Weapons aren't cumbersome in a fight, only outside of one. Hence, encumbrance rules.

You know, this pisses me off.Tthe idea that longswords, zweihanders, and similar weapons are clumsy and heavy is a renaissance invention, because these noodle-armed duelists with rapiers (wielded almost entirely with the hand and wrist) picked up the swords and tried to apply rapier fencing to them, which doesn't work because these sorts of weapons are meant to use the entire upper body.

Here's the thing; weapons as a general rule are not cumbersome. If they are, the person using it is going to die the moment he swings because he opponent will step aside and then stab him before he can recover. It's like fat rolling in Dark Souls; you just don't do it, because you WILL be killed if you do it, because you're constantly leaving yourself vulnerable.

But these weapons were used. You don't use slow-ass, impossible to wield weapons. Therefore the designs for them weren't cumbersome.
>>
>>54246282
>renaissance invention
>you know, when zweihanders became an actual thing because of full plate armor making shields obselete
>this is when we started insulting two-handers which were basically never used before
What are you smoking?
>>
>>54246309
My timeframe is a little off then; It's been a while and I'm a weapons nerd, not a history buff.

Every other point is correct though, I know that.
>>
>>54246321
Rapiers aren't used with the hand and wrist; at least, not rapiers meant for battle, which were designed essentially as very thin piercing swords to deal with transition armor that weren't quite full plate but more or less immune to normal weapons anyway. At the same time, I believe the original person meant 'cumbersome' as in 'it's bad to not have a sidearm'.
>>
>>54246007
Polearms were relatively agile, and versatile as fuck. The only real issue of their weight was fatigue; if you were going to fight six hours in the mud, you were gonna fucking feel that glaive after a while.

However, while your energy holds out? You've got a weapon capable of multiple angles and methods of attack, with rapidly adjustable reach.

The rear-end was generally capped or even spiked so as to offer even more avenues of attack, so that the only way you got "into" a polearm's range - no matter what the reach rules of pathfinder try to claim - was to fucking grapple the wielder, at which point it was time for daggers and teeth for all involved.

If you want to simulate how cumbersome Polearms are in pathfinder?

REMOVE THE INNER-REACH PENALTY.
>>
>>54246334
They were not merely piercing swords. Rapiers were not foils; while they were built to punch through chain and thick cloth with a good amount of power behind them, they also had excellent cutting edges

Medieval warfare often got incredibly nasty.
>>
>>54246371
True, but the idea behind them was to be a foil that could also be a sword (or a sword that became foil-y).

>>54246372
There's a reason it was called the Bad War. It wasn't fun.

>>54246353
Generally speaking, a polearm is and was superior to all other melee weapons. Swordfags can cry a river.

So why don't Alchemists just get Infusion and precise bombs for free?

How does this guy have 9 rounds of rage at first level?
>>
>>54246617
16 con+Berserker of the society
>>
Whats a good enough AC for a 5th level char? and for a 8th level one? Is there a formula to know it at everylevel?
>>
>>54246641
Depends on your GM, your build, your role, and the charop rules.
>>
>>54246641
you can just google it to find the average attack bonuses of any given CR, but there's enough variance that you won't really have a perfect idea of "good enough" AC.

Upper or mid 20s should be good for a 5th level character, but your better defense is a good offense. High initiative, a high attack bonus, and high damage--or better yet, a method of attacking that doesn't put you in range of an enemy.

At higher levels, you're better served by beefing up your saves and hit points rather than trying to keep your AC high. Not to say you should neglect it, but by that point you're going to get hit anyway if something wants to hit you.
>>
>>54246633
Well he has 12 con, and then 16 con after rage, and there isn't anything in the rules that states that the extra con you get during a rage goes towards extra rounds of rage.

And besides, if that were true he'd have 10 rounds of rage and not 9
>>
>>54246641
In general, a frontliner wants their level +15 or so in armor class, so at level 5 you want 20 AC to be reasonable, or 23 at level 8.

This doesn't cover everything, but it should be enough to keep you alive in most circumstances. However, due to the fact that AC scaling is ass, and that death is the hardest CC, you should focus more on making sure the target doesn't get a chance to injure you in the first place.
>>
>>54246633
He's an UCBarbarian. No CON bonus there.
>>
>>54246805
>>54246816
well 12 con + berserker of the society gets him to 8 regardless, if he's a Dwarf or another race with a similar FCB, that gives him an extra round of rage per day, which would get him to 9
>>
>>54246826
>if he's a Dwarf or another race with a similar FCB
Literally a human in the video.
Humans have a shit and useless Barbarian FCB.
>>
>>54246835
>Humans have a shit and useless Barbarian FCB.
Not if you go for the Superstitious bonus. It's not hard to get an absolutely ridiculous set of saves as a human barbarian
>>
Human Barbarian Favored Class Bonus: Add a +½ bonus to trap sense or +⅓ to the bonus from the superstition rage power.

Also there doesn't seem to be any differences between the number of rounds you get to rage with barb and unchained barb
>>
>>54246835
Its probably just a mistake then, from everything I see it should be 8 instead of 9
>>
>>54246846
Also in the video he explicitly doesn't take the FCB and takes the extra 1 HP

2d6+13 damage at level 1 tho
