Based on the campaign stylings of DM Cornish (Lamplighter Series) & Steven Erickson’s (Malazan Book of the Fallen Series).
Rakshasa’s campaign setting is scaled in a a darker more sinister world grounded in humanities struggles to survive the wylds as well as each other. Gunpowder, alchemy, dark rituals and gorey experiments abound.

Pathfinder Campaign: Character Generation is a 20 point buy system for abilities and one free non-heroic character class level to start. Max out first level for hit point values both non-heroic and heroic classes.
Please generate some background for your character this can be as general or as in depth as you like. Keep in mind the more you leave for me to determine, the more I may be able to make your background tie into the story itself.

Gm - can we use alternate racial traits?
I want to take... Military Tradition: Several human cultures raise all children (or all children of a certain social class) to serve in the military or defend themselves with force of arms. They gain proficiency with up to two martial or exotic weapons appropriate to their culture. This racial trait replaces the bonus feat trait... for flavor. Would any exotic/martial weapons work or is there a limited list for Batton Wycomb?

Absolutely...The Callumbin Empire reigns. As per the lexicon many military fighting traditions known as Evolutions exist aka “Hand Strokes” is the vernacular (Domum, Escalade, Hi-Lo and Fight with Hawk & Pick...Tomahawk and long knife).
Others exist for the different ethnicities and cultures as well. Let me know what your thinking and I can help flavor it to the setting.

I am thinking of going full sword and board sand want to use a bastard sword..which I will sometimes use two handed for the extra strength damage
theat racial trait states up to two weapons but I am cool with just the one. If there is another weapon that would also pair with it or just campaign prevalent that would be cool too

DM have you seen this - Elephant in the Room
makes a pretty solid argument versus feat taxing

Sorry in advance for Ceragia. The plain truth is there is a four hour time difference between when the Iron Duke arrived in the lock at Batton Easton and when Kallus and Piebold arrived. So you guys can run around all you want but you are not going to run into each other.
The Fault may be my own however so let me fill you in:
-Ceragia you are in a haze of a lack of information that your Father either willingly or negligently likes to keep you in. You are aware that someone is going to smuggle you from Batton Easton to Batton Wycomb but you have no details of who, when or how. Literally anyone could come to you and ask you to follow them and you would have no idea whether to trust them or not. (Remember the magical carriage you guys delivered to the Zhents by accident?)
-Kallus, the organization you work for is well informed, well-funded and highly organized. You know exactly what she looks like, that she is a Female, Peshwan, Flash (Evoker) that may or may not be disguised, that she will be arriving by a merchant ram called The Iron Duke, that the Captain of that ship has been paid to keep her passage secret and to instruct her to stay on the ship, what slip it would be docked at and roughly (because nobody can accurately predict very well the exact arrival of a seafaring vessel, especially one that just travel the equivalency of a transatlantic sea voyage) what time with in a day or two as to when the vessel should arrive. There is no reason to expect that news of her arrival would be compromised, however your organization knows damn well to plan like it has been. So the conversation you just overheard should not be a surprise in the least. You also know that the only person that knows as much as you do is the driver Piebold. He knows exactly as much as you and is to continue the task should you fail to the best of his ability all the other that didn’t make it were pressed into service and just muscle should you need it. That being said you’re the Khano, Piebold is not.
