Make this character in Pathfinder


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


Hello.
I already asked for help to make some characters that comes from different universes and I liked all the good advices that came.

There's a character I'm trying to make in Pathfinder, but I don't find what class would do the best.

Kishin Asura, from Soul Eater
Here's the wiki on him: http://souleater.wikia.com/wiki/Asura

In short:

- Strongly chaotic
- Madness aura
- Good hand to hand combat
- Uses destructive spells

At first I thought of a monk/caster hybrid, but found out it doesn't exist.

Then I looked at warpriests, that might be good, but the character personality is very distrustful. It would be weird for him to have faith in a god. I keep it as an option though.

Right now I'm looking at sorcerer hybrids and archetypes, but none seems to grant the chaotic aura that I'm looking for.

Any help is welcomed.


I mean if you want an aura of madness nothing beats Psychadelia Psychics who get a permanent aura of confusion at L13. No alignment restrictions, full caster (psychics aren't the best at random destruction, but their list has a few gems for causing harm), fighting is an issue, but that should come with the territory for porting anime characters: some part of the concept will have to give.


Sounds kind of like a Bloodrager: a Sorcerer/Barbarian hybrid. "Madness Aura" could be approximated through some Rage Feats that let allies Rage, too. Sympathetic Rage, I guess. Maybe something like Dazzling Display, which lets you Intimidate everyone within 30' as a Full Round Action.

Based on what Asura was, it could very well be that he has faith in himself/his madness, which would explain the divine power.

Oh, yeah!

I forgot you could do clerics without a divinity. That might just be it. Thanks.

The Pathfinder Companion: Antihero's Handbook has an archetype for Ex-Clerics: The Channeler of the Unknown. It is a Cleric that has lost fate in its Deity, but still goes through some daily rituals and gains power from an unknown source. It stifles your domain choice (only 1 domain from a select list), but you can still take the Madness Domain.

You also give up 1 spell-slot per spell-level, but gain an extra Domain spell-slot per spell-level. And your spontaneous casting of Cure/Inflict changes towards spontaneous casting of your domain spells. Furthermore, your channel energy channels Entropy, which damages whatever is standing in range (living, undead and unliving).
