Character Creation
What books are allowed:
You are limited to Paizo Pathfinder material and Dreamscarred Press Psionic material (Pathfinder Content, no d20). I currently own almost all the Pathfinder Published Material and the following Dreamscarred Press Books:
- Ultimate Psionics
- Augmented Wilders, 7th, & Mythic
- Bestiary
If you are going to use a Dreamscarred Psionic something, it has to be something that I can access.
What Level: 1st
What Classes: Any Paizo or Dreamscarred Psionic. I also have Sample Characters from the mod if you want to use them. They are Cryptic, Soulknife, Vitalist, and Psion. Just say in your post, " I'd love to run the Psion!" I care less about party balance and more about Players.
The Open Mind wrote:
Sample characters are given at the end of the book if your players are unfamiliar with psionics, giving a balanced and well-rounded party using the psionic classes found in Ultimate Psionics. If you decide to use your own characters instead of the sample characters provided, each member of the party should have some level of psionic ability, whether that is a psionic race, psionic class, or a feat like Wild Talent from Ultimate Psionics.
Again, if you are an awesome PbP Player don't let this stand in your way.
What Race: Any race found in the above books, 15 RP or lower. No Race Builder Races. Don't get weird. Psionics are challenging enough without some obscure race.
Abilities: 20-point buy. No abilities lower than 8 with racial modifiers included. You are supposed to be Heroes!
Traits: 2 traits, no drawbacks.
Wealth: Max starting gold for your class.
Min/Max: On the fence. I love character creation, and applaud people with the time and acumen to create the various guides (which I use frequently), yet I dislike cheese builds. If you want to create an optimized character that is really good at a narrow ranges of abilities, have at it.
For continuity sake, this adventure takes place on Golarion's made up 9th content Tion. (page 14 f the Third Dawn Player's Guide).
