A Cavalier with two orders?


Rules Questions


Is there a Cavalier Archetype that allows for the picking of two Orders (instead of just one)? Or perhaps gaining some features of two orders and then choosing other features from between either order (like the Crossblooded Sorcerer archetype)?

i'd much rather have a cavalier with tactician that allows any teamwork feat not just the bonus ones (also more times per day would be nice)

now back to two orders it could be cool but roleplaying wise it can be problematic (no one would trust a cavalier that belongs to multiple factions)


roleplaying wise it likely has very little relevance,
cavalier orders are game mechanical constructs that don't
NEED to have any correlation to in-world organizations (although they MAY),
in fact the class itself goes out of it's way to point that out:
Members of these orders are not necessarily bound together, but some organizations do exist that are comprised of cavaliers that all belong to one specific order.

but no, AFAIK there is no such option, although in roleplaying terms you can belong to different orgs,
one of which possibly correlates to the cavalier order, and you can use other classes/PRCs
that also have an implied tie-in to an organization, i.e. aldori swordlords, hellknight, etc.

is there some specific orders you felt matched the character concept well?
maybe there is some other build options / in-character affiliations that could achieve similar effect?

Actually, yes, I was hoping to find a way to take Order of the Dragon as well as Order of the Star (as a worshiper of Iomedae).

Another option I was hoping to take was Order of the Shroud and as well as Order of the Star again (but this time as a worshiper of Pharasma).

Aside from taking levels in the Paladin class I don't see any other option apparently. Kinda weird but eh, rules are rules I guess.


OK, not sure if it's exactly what you were thinking,
but it sounds like Deific Obedience might be up your ally to add some more flavorful abilities.

Also, looking at Pharasma, I see a nice combo of Pharasma-tied Gravewalker Chainmail,
which grants a Detect Undead SLA, which should qualify you for the Eerie Sense Feat.
(automatically being aware of Undead/Haunts within 60 feet, although not indicating direction)

Iomedae seems suited for a multiclass with Cav and Sohei Monk?
