So I made up Claude.
Mechanically, he's a switch hitter, alternating between ranged attacks with his rocks, and batting things up in melee with his frying pan.
Fluffwise, he's from Golarion France, can't remember the name right now, where he was, at various times, a chef, a dockworker, bouncer and street thug.
It was in that last capacity that he worked for the professor, who'd been reffered to him as someone who was trustworthy in a pinch. He saw some wierd stuff working that job for the professor, and is generally not into all that occult stuff. He doesn't like academics much either, seeing as he was shot in the leg by one young exiteable academic by accident in one of the student revolts. His leg never completely healed right, and he's been walking with a cane ever since.
While he was being treated, however, he had some really strange dreams. He's found afterwards that he has affinity for stone, can sense if food has been poisoned, and can cause certain things to glow if he focuses on it. It's all very strange, and reminds him of his work for the professor, so he tries not to dwell too much on it.
He has inherited a set of fine knives and cleavers, and an elegantly wrought and decorated frying pan from his grandfarther, along with knowledge of some of the secrets of fine cooking.
He hopes to one day set up an exclusive restaurant, but the stars never really aligned on that one. In the meantime, the frying pan works equally well for making omelets and breaking eggs.
Character update
** spoiler omitted **...
His AC of course, sucks, but that's just how it goes.

About the ac fear I looking on how to help with that should have a good solution by section day might be something like defection bonus by level or by ba bonus like half or something...since most people would not have armor but a adventure would be able to Dodge better than a nomal npc. ..well i have the answer soon...^_^

if you can make a profile for your character and follow this Character sheet template since for some reason my work is blocking http://www.myth-weavers.com since mot of the time I will be posting from work thanks
K, will do. Was intending to too, MW is just easier for me to do when starting out.
Actually, how much is the setting like victorian London? Does it have Indian colonies?
Because that gave me a rather cool idea for a monk just now. Considering that the professor is supposed to be well-traveled, it could make sense that the two of them have met out east, and hit off.
The character would be a mess of Monk, Hospitalier Paladin, Lore Oracle and Champion of Irori.
will do. GEtting parts for PC tomorrow, so proper acces to my pc by thursday

It would be loosely set in it since I am throwing steampunk elements / Lovecraft type elements into the game. So yes they would have Indian colonies, but as I stated before they are apprehensive on anything that is clearly a oocult

You could try the class based defense bonus of 3.5
I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes... I've been trying to keep up with the thread and I don't think anyone else is building this way... I'm going to build as a swashbuckler/eldritch scion (the sorcerer magus archetype). That won't have as strong a flavor as a sorcerer/oracle would, but with the aberrant bloodline it'll still be the same kind of flavor and he'll have a much easier time getting along in your society.
Don't turn down the oracle on my account; I only plan to be taking a single level of it.
Tempting, oh so very tempting ...
*looks at dishes* Eh, later.
Before I come running with something concrete I'd like to fire a pair of questions!
1) When tempting the dice-gods with rolled stats, I assume the positioning of the rolls are up to us (the players)?
2) 'Anything on pfsrd20' - Would you be willing to use the Path of War Martial Manoeuvres (from Dreamscared Press, the Psionic guys/gals)?
2b) Assuming that is a 'yes', would you be okay with using the 'Path of War Expanded' playtest stuff? It is not yet on pfsrd20 but all the documents are publicly available and I will provide links.
(I apologize if this have been mentioned earlier, I looked trough the thread but didn't read everything)
My very loose plan at the moment is to play a Paladin/Harbinger, the second class adding mobility and some darkness to nicely contrast the shininess of the paladin half : )
Cheers! //Lessah
He changed his mid on allowing us to roll so so the answer to question #1 is: N/A
Ah, I just noticed. Thank you for pointing it out for me : )
No prob, I like helping.
A good trait : )
Dropping out, good luck!
I wasn't turning down oracle because anyone else had it... I was considering sorcerer/oracle as a gestalt combo because the flavor would be great for my backstory, but the more I thought about it the more it seemed like kind of an NPC concept if that makes sense... Like, it would have been great flavor but not really functional as a full-time character.

answers
1)20 point buy
2)yes ^_^
2b)that's a no since its not on the website i.e{I'm really exited for the occult class stuff but since its not done yet I can't play one}
That is fair I suppose. I can use the Warlord class instead (probably with the Vanguard archetype) : )
I will try and put together a draft and come back with it later today.
@Armour - I suppose that even if armour isn't convenient at the start, the time to pack full plate and woop some evil will come - right : )?
If not, I might have to reconsider a thing or two!

Yes of course it will come, it in the city when it's weird to see somebody like that. one out in the wilds it's common to see people in armor or openly carrying weapons since it's dangerous out there. Only inside the city why are you carrying sword or wearing armor unless you're going to do something wrong. That's kind of what I'm going for, but not I'm saying that you can't have armor on or be walking with a weapon its just prepare to have NPCs react accordingly ^_^

whoa, wait... my mind was just blown... you're ok with any 3pp as long as its on d20pfsrd?!?
Zagathoth was originally built as my first (and still only) 3pp character... for some reason I guess I just assumed you weren't using 3pp stuff... how would you feel about an eldritch godling gestalted with a mighty godling? He was also originally a lashunta (from paizo), reskinned to look like a dark eyed, bald albino human...
If you're interested in any or all of that we can talk about how to build him in a way that would work for your campaign. If it sounds like too much just give the say so and I'll get back to work on the much subtler swashbuckler/eldritch scion build.

He was also originally a lashunta (from paizo), reskinned to look like a dark eyed, bald albino human... he was part of a human family, the racial stuff was a reflection of the 'old ones' power influencing his development since childhood. his parents hid him in shame until their (fairly recent) passing.

I've never heard or read about those two classes I guess you're talking about I'll have to look at it when I get home and I'll get back to you. For now since I don't know about it let's make it be a tentative no

i will say yes to Lashunta but;
1)you will nee a good reason for it knowing the professor
2)i good reference pick so i have an idea on how people will react to you
and no to the class by itself feels gestated already sorry
I have another build-related question!
Would you let this archetype stack with this one?
They both alters lay on hands & smite evil, but nothing that contradicts eachother.
(The first delays the first use of smite evil until 4th level, the second delays the gain of a second use of smite evil until 7th level)
(The first one lets a familiar use Lay on Hands & Channel energy by expending double uses, the second gives separate pools for Lay on Hands & Channel Energy)

just looked at it since it dose say alter not replace its cool
No problem- I'll stick with the human swashbuckler/eldritch scion- I really like that build. I just thought I'd ask about the godling because it has such strong flavor.
Cool game concept, are you still taking submissions?
Was thinking of a warder//investigator combo that was like a female Sherlock holmes type that relied on her fisticuffs when things got rough.
Good question, is it gonna be scooby doo large or hardy boys?
Taking submission until the 6th and as I said it will be 4-6 players. I really want potential players to be passionate about their character since I want to complete the campaign

Posting interes here, if you have room?
You know how, in the docks, there's sometimes these legal and not so legal fighting rings? You know that person who works hard to make ends meet and shows up with new blemishes and bruises at work certain mornings in the month? The person with a surprisingly toned build, well polished knuckles, and so on?
That's Anais and in short I'm thinking female half-elf Brawler/Monk. But with Path of War made available... hmm...
I have a clear concept in mind and a character to fit with it, the mechanics might have to be slightly altered, if that's okay?

yes i have settled on 20 point buy ^_^
Crud, just realized mastermind and empiricist overlap lol
Well I like the empiricist flavor more and it better matches with her being a former student which is what I am going for.
Any chance on using 3.5 material?
Was thinking of using the Carmendine Monk and knowledge devotion feats.
Of course that might make the campaign explode with it's uberness.
No only stuff on the website that I approve and I might be using 3.5 armor defence rules...in some way
