There are lots of martial applicants, plenary of divine casters, one sorcerer/oracle one dread (fear based psionic class) and one bard
The frontrunners in my mind were inquisitor/ranger build, stacking hate for demons, or the bardadin-> dragon. I also considered inquisitor/zen archer.
Adjusting the character. Gonna make her a Mythic Grappler.
Just need to puzzle out ways for a Rogue//Something to get 2000 feats.
Is Unchained Tetori (archetype) Monk an option?
If you want grapple, brawler would sound like your feat tree.

You can only take archtypes that are actually comparable with unchained monk, but you can take regular tetori if you like.

okay, here's the crunch of the guy I was thinking of, a savage tech barbarian/inquisitor. He doesn't start with a firearm. He'll have to build his own. I'll have his background, etc. up soon, and finish up his equipment.
If you want grapple, brawler would sound like your feat tree.
yeah, currently torn between brawler, monk, fighter and psychic warrior. And thats' not even counting dips for utility.
Further, I'm soft-planning around some fun (Mythic) Options.Obviously, I need to improve my grapple mod and cmd.
But here are some teasers for what I am trying to make work:
Source PPC:MO
You can tie knots in rope with a flick of your wrist, and can do so from the far end of the rope. You can tie a knot in any rope you hold, including turning it into a lasso, as a swift action. You can also use a whip, lasso, spiked chain, or similar weapon to constrict an opponent.
In order to do so, you must make a successful attack with the rope-like weapon, after which you can, as a swift action, attempt a grapple combat maneuver against that creature, adding your tier to your combat maneuver check. If you are successful, the creature is considered to be grappled, though you are not, and you can deal constrict damage to the creature (as the universal monster ability) equal to the amount of damage you could normally deal with the weapon used.
Which makes me wanna play around with a double chained kama or something.
When you strike from the cover of darkness, you inject foes with a fraction of your foul magic.
Prerequisites: Base attack bonus +5, darkness spell-like ability, sneak attack class feature, tiefling.
Benefit: When you successfully deal sneak attack damage to a foe while you are within an area of magical darkness, you temporarily blind your opponent for 1 round. A successful Fortitude save (DC 10 + the amount of sneak attack damage dealt) negates this effect.
Throttling the life out of enemies is second nature to you.
Prerequisite: Dex 13, sneak attack +1d6, Improved Grapple, Improved Unarmed Strike.
Benefit: Whenever you successfully maintain a grapple and choose to deal damage, you can spend a swift action to deal your sneak attack damage to the creature you are grappling.
Your unarmed style allows you to turn your opponent’s attack into an opportunity.
Prerequisite: Snapping Turtle Style, Improved Grapple, Improved Unarmed Strike, base attack bonus +3 or monk level 3rd.
Benefit: While you are using the Snapping Turtle Style feat, the shield bonus the style grants to your AC applies to your CMD and touch AC. Whenever an opponent misses you with a melee attack while you are using the Snapping Turtle Style feat, you can use an immediate action to attempt a grapple combat maneuver against that opponent, but with a –2 penalty.
While grappling, you can cut off an opponent’s air and blood supply.
Prerequisites: Improved Grapple, Improved Unarmed Strike, base attack bonus +6 or monk level 5th.
Benefit: While you have an opponent up to one size category larger than you grappled, you can attempt a grapple combat maneuver with a –5 penalty on the check. If you succeed, you have pinned your opponent and hold the opponent in a chokehold. When you maintain the grapple, you also maintain the chokehold. A creature in a chokehold cannot breathe or speak, and thus cannot cast spells that have a verbal component. An opponent you have in a chokehold has to hold his breath or begin suffocating. Any creature that does not breathe, is immune to bleed damage, or is immune to critical hits is immune to the effects of your chokehold. When the grapple is ended, so is the chokehold.
Lot of swift actions there, but there are ways to bring the need down.

Abarent aegis is great at grappling (and getting lots of attacks in a given round)
Tentacles are 1 point customizations that can be taken up to four times. The first one grants the grab ability (+4 CMB and a free grapple check if you hit with any of your tentacle attacks) and +2 CMB for all later attacks
Brawler and monk are good at grappling and have plenty of feats
Maneuver master monk is notable for how it capitalizes on the CMB you'd be pumping to do the other maneuvers and be crazy good at them. This archetype is almost mandatory if you just want to dip
The half giant psionic race is treated as large size if it's beneficial, so that's another way to pump your CMB a bit

I've been looking at Aegis. Alway my go-to when psionics is allowed. But then mostly at Trailblazer for the utility. As I plan to give up trapfinding for Shadow walker for a crit recharging darkness spell-like. I will consider Abberant a bit more.
Maneuver master monk looks sweet, but specifically locks down your cmb of bab to your monk lvl. So you can't multiclass much, or even prestige. Or you will lose a lot of reliability.
But certainly to consider. Thanks.
edit: The more i've been considering this, the more the character is leaning towards Rogue//Aegis all the way and just go whole hog on the natural attacks. Gonna need to invest heavily into some sort of illusion magic item to mask my horrendous form though. Because damn son, tentacles, claws, stingers, lions and tigers. Oh my!
Extra: Gestalt is a lot of stuff and first level isn't really where builds always shine through. So tell me what you're building toward and what you want to do. Not in depth, not a tactical rundown of your action flowchart, just a sense of how you'll play down the line.
I will start working soon, on my Elven Ketephys worhshipping Cold Iron Warden Inquisitor / Divine Marksman Ranger. He has literally spent his entire life preparing for this.
Humans can take the Giant Ancestry racial trait for +1 CMB, and the Bred for War trait for another +1, giving you +2 from first level, which is a huge help.
I built a human Tetori Monk before, but with a stronger focus on Stunning Fist. Stunning Pin lets you get a swift action Stunning Fist on a target you pin, which, if it goes off, means your snuggle-buddy is royaly fked.
Half-Orcs get +1/2 to Stunning Fist DCs as a FCB and I also took Mantis Style.
As for me, I am trying to build a dwarf with the Steel Soul feat to make a creature who is extremely resistant to magic. I will have 1 class be an Aegis to further focus defense with things like heavy armor and Stalwart . That would make him extremely durable.
However, pairing that with another melee class would probably be too hyperfocused and strong, so I am currently looking to pair it with something ranged.
Thinking of an Aether Keneticist. It has ranged attacks, a very strong "Magic infused creature" feel with telekinetic abilities and force field defences to go along with his massive resistances and armor made out of magic.
I will also be able to throw a weapon at someone and then telekinetically beat them with that weapon afterwards.
He would have Con based abilities however I fear he will still be quite MAD, as I will probably need decent Str, Dex, Con and Wis for everything. Aegis enhancement bonuses will help but I will have to reread things to find out for sure.
He will also have the Ire of the entity, and with such high resistances you would be able throw a lot of things at him >:)
Indeed, he has such great endurance simply so that he CAN survive such attentions, because something out there has painted a bullseye on his back and come hell or high water he WILL survive.
His backstory will be something like this;
He lived in a hold with other dwarves when, one day, a cataclysmic etheric event destroyed the hold. The survivors fled, my dwarf among them. However those that survived were somehow infused with this etheric energy. Some of the survivors fled to another town, however that town was also struck by the etheric energy, this time with very few suvivors. Once again, the survivors were infused with this etheric energy, and those that were at both events got a double portion.
Superstitions arose and the survivors blamed as the cause, and then cast out.
Since then, my character has been fleeing, never staying in 1 spot too long, all the while dodging and surviving unusual magical mishaps that keep happening at an alarming rate. Lightning out of a blue sky. A misdirected firebolt. Mudslides. Bandits.
Thankfully the etheric magic granted to him has thrus far proven very effective at protecting him and keeping him alive, however he is loath to use it as he seems sure that the energies are consuming him and shortening his lifespan, and he feels diminished after using them too excessively.
Still, a mixture of superstition and bad luck keep him moving, unless its something more sinister?

Wow paizo just fked up :(
Sorry for triple posting, that shouldn't have happened.
If you still have room for aplicants, i'd like to submit a character:
Xedig(presented on mythweavers for now, am going to tramsport him to an alias first thing today if you need, just ask)
Link
He's an Egoist Psion/Slayer
[url=https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=1362127]New link, /url] the old one was leading to the whrong version of the character.
New link, the old one was leading to the whrong version of the character.
You're fine to submit a charecter, the recruitment closes in 3 days.
Anyone who has a backstory done and wants / needs a Greenlight, let me know, I'll get to it when I wake.
Backstory soon, but how long? A few paragrafs? One more question:
Is the capital or any large metropolitic sity anywhere near the place where the game tokes place? Or at least any ruins of great cities? I need the clarification to wright a backstory( it whould be better if there was).
The player's guide for wrath of the righteous, a free download, provides the details you'll probably want/need for a backstory.

This.As to how long it should be, make it as long as you think it needs to be to get the chsrecter concept conveyed to me.
Ok, after viewing the PG i have whriten the backstory for my character:
"The world is full of filth, and i am its janitor."
Xadig's tribe was long ago enslaved into service of Knabres by a cruel dictator before even the worldwound was opened, and as the city grew, they became more than slaves, they were forced to inhabit the sewers and clean them for a living.
After the dictator was dethroned, they were simply forgotten about, cleaning the magical waste of the city for generations, forgot by everyone exept some of the more pious guards, that sometimes left food for them in fear of the mad sewer god.
"Some say that magic is a field, some, that it is a particle, but one thing is certain, it never disapears fully, it leaves behind Contamination. Imagime every spell component pouch, every alchemical reactive shoved without care into the sewers. Now imagine what happens to generations of humans that live in such a place. They become altered, changed, some develop their own magic, while others accept the gift of psionics."
Xadig inherited his tribes innate psinics, talent to slay the sewers inhabitants, and spontaniously manifested the incredible drive to clean the world.
On the Holy Day, he resurfaced into the crowd, drew his hood, and joined the celebration.
"Whriten" is intended.
I have made this character. He is a being.
I'll get to looking over these submissions later, but I'm feeling kinda ill today.
Sure! Take your time. :)
ok, done except for equipment bits
I hope you recover quickly! This is looking like it will be an interesting campaign.
I think the character is ready to go.
With the traits I took I feel that the entity thing would fit in...
so yes to the entity option
If youre interested in learning about something linked to your presumable illness, please visit the pub.med site, even if you dont find anything about your symptoms, it may be worth it, many articles provide an interesting reading experience.
If you feel more specific symptoms, i recomend sarcing in the international disease catalogue.
In any case, the best support for the organism and profilactic against viruses and specificly the common cold is stew with a whole chicken boiled in it, and tasty too.
Its like getting a +4 to saves vs. disease and a reroll
Starting to review now
I think that's everyone-
If you have a completed submission, and I haven't messaged you, let me know.
Two days remain for submissions! After the 15th, submissions close.
They will close some time on the 16th, exactly when is going to be "when I'm ready".
So, I advise if you want your charecter to be guarenteed to be considered, please submit them by the end of the 15th.
Hello :)
It looks like I won't have time or energy to fully apply for this, which is a shame, that entity angle seemed fun.
On top of that, I doubt I would be able to add another game to my repertoire and still keep up with all of them, so I would have probably not joined anyways.
Still, it was fun theory crafting a character for this and coming up with different ideas/backstory points for him :)
At one point I was looking at an Aegis/Psion egoist, and that combo is SCARRY! Aegis gives you good defences, free enhancement bonuses and powerful build. Psion gives you expansion and later access to animal afinity. So you could wield an oversized Greataxe then grow to large size, making the axe deal 3d8 damage, with enhancement bonuses from lvl 1 ^_^ you also have full access to Metamorphosis and all of the many abilities available to it.
Overpowered, but fun :)
Then that evolved to a Steel-Soul/Glory-of-Old dwarf aegis who would take Stalwart at lvl 2, giving him some saves around 12 fort, 9 ref, 11 will, against spells and the ability to completely negate a spell he saved against, rather then being partially affected.
So near immunity to spells. Which I thought would be fun to combine with the Ire of the entity. It would give the GM free reign to chuck as many spells at me as he wanted, in addition to whatever else he had in mind.
I was going to combine it with Aether Kineticist for Con based ranged attacks, and telekinesis to complete the "Magical Dwarf" theme.
Then that evolved into something very different. I was thinking of a Swordsman who was capable and effective with any sword he picked up, regardless of its origin. He was also a blacksmith and made swords.
So, a fighter who made extensive use of the "Feat Taxes" rules, especially the ones that allow feats to apply to weapon groups instead of individual weapons.
However, Pathfinder encourages focusing on 1 specific weapon and its difficult to utilize 2 weapons, let alone more, so I needed a class that could buff me, specifically rather then the weapon I wield, so that I can keep up.
So pair him up with the Egoist Psion! He would have less focus on expansion, but a large focus on Metamorphosis for enhancements. He would also use Inertial Armor, so he would be running around without armor.
I don't yet know if he would be favored/ired by the entity, but that was his idea :)
Ya, it was fun building these characters :)
oh, to be explicit, I am totally cool with the entity that favors or disfavors me.
I have a submission, Lina Weaver, a Paladin/Unchained Rogue in the service of Desna, with the Chance Encounter trait. Picked Desna because I love the flavor, there's the tie with the trait, and because I feel like she'd be cool with one of her servants being a little deceptive sometimes. Level progression is straightforward, picking up rogue talents like Minor and Major Magic, and taking the Divine Bond with her weapon. With feat tax rules it actually isn't a very feat-intensive build, so I might end up going with some more flavorful feats.
Yes on Entity's ire, because I love a paladin who overcomes insurmountable odds.
I can accept the favour and ire of the entity that lurks.
One day remains before I make my decisions about the applications presented!
If you intend to get one in, get it in within the next 23 hours, please.
If someone asks for an extension before time is up, I may extend the time a bit more.
Hmm, i was thinkingabout changing my second class (Slayer) for something different, eg. Psion/X, probobly something martial.
Can i do this?

You may make any changes you like before the deadline.

Racial
Long-Limbed: Elves with this racial trait have a base move speed of 35 feet. This racial trait replaces weapon familiarity.
* Elven Immunities: Elves are immune to magic sleepeffects and gain a +2 racial saving throw bonus against enchantment spells and effects.
* Keen Senses: Elves receive a +2 racial bonus on Perceptionchecks.
* Elven Magic: Elves receive a +2 racial bonus on caster levelchecks made to overcome spell resistance. In addition, elves receive a +2 racial bonuson Spellcraft skill checks made to identify the properties of magic items.
Low-Light Vision: Elves can see twice as far as humans in conditions of dim light.
Dragon Magic: Some elves have potent draconic blood. Elves with this racial trait who take a draconic bloodline as a class feature treat their Charisma scores as 2 points higher when determining the DC and uses per day of all bloodlineabilities and bloodline spells. Additionally, elves with this trait add spells with the draconic descriptor to their class spell lists for any spellcasting classes in which they have levels
Class
Arcane Pool
At 1st level, a greensting slayer can expend 1 point from his arcane pool as a swift action to add 1d6 points of sneak attackdamage to his next melee attack that round. The attack must meet all of the usual prerequisites for making a sneak attack, as the rogue class feature. For every 4 levels beyond 1st, the amount of sneak attack damage dealt by this ability increases by 1d6 (to a maximum of 5d6 at 17th level). If a greensting slayer gets a sneak attack from another source, the bonuses on damage stack.
A greensting slayer cannot use his arcane pool to enhance his weapon.
When the girl who would be known as Harannra'Prexijandilin, or Hanna to those of nondraconic ancestry was born, it was to a family of normal, if adventurous elves. they traveled the land and told stories and fought monsters. life was good. but on one of their adventures when the child was young, they disappeared, never to be seen nor heard from again. the child was adopted by a small family of black dragons who knew the child's parents and saw potential in her. they gave her a new name and showed her how to live, fight and use magic. They even told her stories about her parents and their adventures and the family legend about how supposedly generations back one of their line married a dragon, though her adopted siblings found this to be laughable. And once again, life was good. but Hanna got antsy when she grew older. no longer content to stay in the run down house in the swamp on the edge of town, Hanna wanted to learn about the rest of the world, go on adventures, fight monsters and right wrongs and maybe have a little fun along the way, following in her birth parent's footsteps to some extent.
At one point in her exploring, learning and fighting she came across a traveler from verisa, selling black scarves and bladed scarves. She loved the aesthetic of the waving strands of cloth and wanted to make her own from the pile of cast off dragon scales she brought from home. She agreed to work for the shop owner as an apprentice and fashioned her scarves out of the scales. She even learned to fight using sharpened scales hidden within the scarves, distracting her opponent as she dances around them.

I've decided to take Fighter.
In 5 levels, at level 6, i'm going to prestige class into Metamorph if thats cool using the other classes levels, so its going to be something like:
Psion 6/
Metamorph 1/
Fighter 5Can i do this?
The problem with that, is that metamorph has no caster level to scale.
Icehawk, hows Ryu's over all stats look? any issues that stick out?
Nothing in preticular sticks out.

It does progress your previous psionic caster levels, but apart from that, i think its pretty balanced, if i say the CLs don't stack i think it'll be fine.
** spoiler omitted **...
Dear Lord Foul II, i find that you haven't added the classes you use, i can make out your character is a Magus/Sorcerer, but other people may have difficulty reading your sheet.
Oh, and Icehawk, i'll need to scoop up my backstory a bit in the morning, but i'm fine otherwise.
