Help filling out Character Sheet / Archetypes


Advice


I am currently designing a possible Monk/Alchemist character. I have played around a bit and finally grabbed enough to get my character to second level. So naturally with this being fairly new to me as a recently joining Pathfinder player, I had a few questions.

Firstly, I am curious if Beastmorph or Vivisectionist are legal archetypes in PFS.

Secondly, I am curious of how to display my archetypes on my character sheet so it is understandable.

Lastly, is it possible to follow two Archetypes with a single class? Like Vivisectionist and Beastmorph?

This is all so new to me. So thank you all in advance for your help.


1) According to the Archives of Nethys alchemist listings, Vivisectionist is not legal for PFS, but Beastmorph is.

2) I haven't seen PFS characters sheets, so unfortunately I can't help much there, but when I'm doing character sheets for our games I just show it by including the archetype name in the class name and including the class features when leveling up.

3) Yes, you can follow multiple archetypes with a single character as long as those archetypes don't modify the same class feature. (I haven't looked closely enough to see whether or not Beastmorph and Vivisectionist do, but Vivisectionist isn't PFS-legal anyway, unfortunately. :( Sorry.)

Awesome. Thank you for the quick and informative reply. I am still extremely overwhelmed by all of this but want to have a fun, full themed class to have a great time with. I am not really much of a power gamer. I just want to be useful to my group. So trying to fit this all together gets a little messy at times.


Totally hear you. :) Good luck!


Not sure what your plan is, but monk and alchemist aren't known for blending very well, not trying to shut you down, just a warning.

This basically. Near the top of the sheet, under the character's name, is a slot for class/level. I usually just write the archetype in with the class here.

For EX: Kensai Bladebound Magus 1

Oh, and yes, you can use multiple archetypes on a single class. The restriction is that the archetypes can not replace or alter the same abilities.

For EX: if you replace poison resistance with an arcetype, you can not take another one that replaces or alters poison resistance.
