Welcome to the Discussion!
This will be PFS based in case I we go with different scenarios versus continuing Emerald Spire. This is a level 1-2 adventure, so if I you have a lil credit or a PC already, feel free to use it.
I will likely build a kineticist, to try it out!
All you need to do is register the PC to get the number, the profile can be blank if all you're looking for is the number.
Of course, since I as a GM need that profile to see your PC character stuff, you will need to do that. But if just need a number, the PC profile isn't needed.

Of course. It was just not clear if we needed to PFS legal in character creation OR actually create a PFS character. This will be my character #14.
Still thinking Wizard or Arcanist. I am unsure if the utility is worth the slower spell level progression for Arcanist. Thoughts?
Oh, and Ki, riding his worg, has already charges something for 50 points even using his newly acquired adamantine lance. :)
Adamantine, huh? Why the extra hardness? :)
I have nearly broken an adamantine scimitar from a dervish dancer... mwa ha ha ha.
Magma ooze, actually :) Those things give a poop about hardness.
Regardless of PCs, I'll put up some introductory text tomorrow morning, but get those PCs created we'll get started!
Ahhh I see... and huzzah for your new choice in weapon then :)

Sigh. Had my laptop die mid game Tuesday night in a roll 20 game. I have wiped the drive and restored from a very recent back-up, and think I'll be fine but it took a lot of time to do that and too many things were not automatically set up.
Plus I run a game tonight and then camp with scouts the entire weekend. I will try to finalize my build by Sunday night. Sorry to be so slow. Just busy.
Don't worry; only Julian has posted a new PC for the game.

I am impressed with both investigator and war priest. I played with a strength based investigator with a longspear. Quite a good build. Rocked an 18 strength.
I should (finally) have my archaist built tonight. Note that since we are constrained by PFS rules I plan to potentially take advantage of the rebuild rule, allowing a rebuild any time before second level. I play to test an archetype that I may not like.
Was hoping last week actually, but only you and Julian/Kristoff have replied with a PC.
Sorry, spaced this. I'll have something tomorrow.
Maube you should PM, Auke.

Okay, sorry for the delay - this is my warpriest. Please look him over and let me know if he looks okay.
My tentative plan is to use Combat Reflexes and his Good weapon blessing to good effect at first (1d10+1d6 damage to all comers), getting improved trip (to use with his fauchard) at level 3. At level 4, he can start adding various other damage types with Sacred Weapon, too.
No worries, I'm still waiting a bit long on Nilfyr. Take care and thanks for the update.
Well, the time I would put into this is separate from RPGSS time; that'll be after work when my geologist wife can help me with my mapping idea. Alas, if only GIS was a legitimate map tool :P I appreciate the positive vibes, though!
Now, for some reason, I get to the finals..., that'll be a different story.
@Artemus: Have fun! As Nilfyr just opened Pandora's Box of BBEG, I'll bot you in this case... we'll see how it goes! I have a rough idea of Artemus would do (open with a Summon, follow up MM as necessary).
Ahh, gotcha. I'll wait til tomorrow for that (new post up in 2 hours!)
It does help that you are level 1 and only have 3 combat options :p
I saw that, so you oddly may be the most survivable if things go down!

Nilfyr has been brought up to level 2. He purchased a wand of CLW (2PP), a wand of Bless (2PP), a spring-loaded wrist sheath for each (10GP total), and did an equipment retrain to sell back his fauchard at full price and bought a masterwork one (for an additional 300GP). He'll also pick up a couple flasks of alchemist's fire (40GP).

Art takes a second level of Arcanist.
He gains:
BAB +1,
Will +1,
5 hit points,
He learns the message spell,
and 7 skill points, allocated thusly:
Appraise +1
Knowledge Duneeoneering +1
Knowledge Local +1
Knowledge Nature +1
Perception +1
Spellcraft +1
UMB +1 for a skill of 6
He will acquire wands of Magic Missile and Mage Armor with Prestige and purchase a Masterwork Crossbow, selling his old crossbow as part of the deal. He will also purchase a +1 cloak, and with his funds he will buy three 1st level scrolls of something, leaving him 6 gold to his name.
Yay! Now I can hope that lucky crits should hopefully not autokill someone (well, all but Artemus, silly arcane caster :P)!
Honestly, I was worried about that with Grulk; ranger with favored enemy human and 3 of the 4 party members counting (and all 4 if Istralanix took human form for some reason :P). I did play this once where a party member was nearly auto killed like that!

Last slot at the con this weekend I ran a year 2 mod (2-02). A second level party of 5 faced 4 first level mooks and a 3rd level cavalier in the first encounter. Arcanist (my exact build even) summons an eagle to deal with a mook, but unaware of the threat fails to get out of the charge lane. Cavalier charges. Cavalier rolls a nat 20. Cavalier confirms the threat. 45 damage. Arcanist dead twice over. Sadness. I rolled the dice out in the open too, so hard to claim the threat did not confirm or that he was only knocked to -9 or something.
I am thinking I should use a screen for low level encounters…
Ouch! Plus side, hope the player hopefully learned about avoiding charge lanes...
Oops... forgot to ask for Day Jobs!
Sorry for the delay; went home sick and didn't get to scanning. Thank you for your patience!
