It seems the antipaladin idea is not going over well with at least half of the other players. I don't want to spoil things, so I'll put that idea on the shelf.

Oh well. Brainstorming again...

I'm sorry, I meant to get back to this last night and forgot.

Did you ever figure out an alternative. :-)

I've figured out way too many alternatives. That's my issue - I come up with so many ideas it's hard to settle.

Once I start playing a character I actually get into it, but during theorycrafting, I just crank out so many I get indecisive.

The party has:

A human dex-based swashbuckler with fencing grace and a rapier
A human dex-based warpriest with a whip and slashing grace focused on tripping.
A half-elf archery-based slayer
A tiefling bomb-focused alchemist with healing bombs and infusions to help the warpriest on healing
Probably an admixture evoker wizard (new player)
Probably a bard or skald (new player)

So then, there's me, putting something in, 'cause my last character (a strength-based half-elf hexcrafter magus) died, and it's pretty obvious they're short on the "strength" side of things.

Some sort of desert barbarian maybe, or Bear Shaman Druid.

Personally, I've always wanted to build a Dwarven Dorn-Derger fighter.

I was recommended by another player the desert druid, which is kind of...a mix of your two suggestions.

It seems the desert druid is uniquely suited to Mummy's Mask. Mechanically it's best feature is vermin shape. I'm not too familiar with the various vermin forms, though...

Honestly, with all the threads I've seen, I think Unchained breaks more then it fixes. :-)

Actually, unchained rogue is pretty rock solid and the badly needed upgrade the Pathfinder rogue has needed. It can actually hold its own with the melee-ers, assuming you don't try to tank alone. I wish there'd been a Str-focused unchained rogue, and I think the skill unlocks are underpowered for the ranks you have to sink into them, but otherwise, it's good to go. Probably the best part of the book (IMO).

I should make a Paladin for Hell's Vengeance, then get mad when he falls.

I was rather disappointed that my "determined to be a good paladin but unclear on the concept" 15-year-old player finally realized that he'd promised to release a Chaotic Evil demon-worshipping cleric as soon as he was done exploring the parts of the city she once ruled. (I was going to write "exploring her conquered regions", but on FaWtL that's just asking for trouble.)

The expressions on his face as he worked it all out were priceless. "If I let her go, then I've unleashed a demon-worshipping cleric on the world, and Iomedae will hate me, and I'll fall. If I don't release her, then Iomedae, as a goddess of honor, will hate me, and I'll fall..."

He finally came up with the idea of releasing her, then killing her. Considering the corner he's painted himself into, it's really not a bad solution, as long as he warns her, gives her time to prep, and then tracks her down and kills her. "I promised I'd let you go, and I will be true to that promise. But in our time together I have learned that you are a vile vermin who needs to be exterminated. So once you have been free for 24 hours, I will stop at nothing to track you down and destroy you."

I actually kind of like it.

Damn it, now i need to find that movie... the one where Ice-T is a homeless guy hunted by some douche bag, the alien guy from Cocoon.

It's based on an earlier movie.

Heh. I have a game with that. That isn't the game that makes the fighter feel irrelevant.

It's the game with the hard that makes the rogue feel irrelevant.

Oh, yes, Mr. Police Officer. Please do roll up to two people in a heated public argument you were summoned to defuse and lose control of your temper immediately. That's a brilliant idea that's not at all going to get everybody else boiling over in response and necessitate the handcuffs coming out.

I like it too. It's great drama, and also a great demonstration of why NG is the goodest good. A NG hero doesn't have to compromise the protection of innocents with honor.

"I promised I'd let you go, but that was before I knew you were a scum-of-the-earth villain. So that's why I killed you immediately and without hesitation, before setting you loose on who-knows-how-many innocents." Much less dramatic than your player's solution, but also much Gooder. ;)

the halflings in my campaign setting wear shoes. They are famous for them actually.

Hobbit feet are for Tolkien. Leave them with Tolkien. No, your setting is not more old school because Tolkien. It's more Tolkien because you are going Tolkien.
