--------------------
He was adopted by noble nomads and lives always on the move, everything he owns with him (bag of holding). His adoptive barbarian people faught large monsters, trolls, giants, etc... so he learned how to fight similarly.
Eventually, there was only so much he could do physically with strength, so he took to stealth and cunning. He was better than them at that... he was a prized scout.

Ultimately, he was intelligent and curious. Always thinking "outside the box" and offering creative solutions and was asked to apprentice with a visiting Wizard. Eyes wide, he learned all his not so little head could handle.

Weapon Finesse, Weapon Focus (dogslicer)

rogue talents (canny observer[APG], trap spotter),

Trade these out for finesse rogue and weapon training and you get weapon finesse and weapon focus free

Slashing Grace (Dogslicer) Treat chosen weapon as 1-handed piercing weapon and can add Dex instead of Str to dam.

You are proficient with a small longsword with slashing Grace for 1d6 damage

I don't see the +1 nat armor but everything else is close

Turtle Familiar, +1 Natural Armor.

Weapon Finesse, Weapon Focus (dogslicer)

rogue talents (canny observer[APG], trap spotter),

Trade these out for finesse rogue and weapon training and you get weapon finesse and weapon focus free

I love those rogue traits, I want to keep them... could be life savers.

Dogslicer is mostly for flavor, it's OK. I gave to 18-20 crit (kukri, rapier), giving up 1d8 vs 1d6, is OK.

Deep in the RP.

Note - Swashbuckler Finesse says: ...gains the benefits of the Weapon Finesse feat with light or one-handed piercing melee weapons...

Weapon Finesse is more restrictive, only Light & weapons with the Finesse trait.

Was looking into it, as I'd considered a scimitar or cutlass.

Need to replace a Paladin of Mitra, level 6. The last one didn't work out.
Old school Paladin prefered.

Working on something else, but if that falls through and you still need someone I’ll toss in.

I’ve been wanting to play a paladin for a while. I’ll cook something up.

2nd: 1d10 ⇒ 7

I’ll have more of my submission fleshed out in a bit.

Well re-roll the 1

Quick question. Level 6 or 8? Just looked the thread and other PCs and it appears they are 8th level. No big deal if the new comer is starting at 6 but just wanted to make sure.

Yes, everyone is now level 8. Sorry I was a little distracted with house guests.

No worries (I’ll have a full house tomorrow so I can relate).

hp 7th: 1d10 ⇒ 6
hp 8th: 1d10 ⇒ 4

I reroll 1's on hp so reroll it please.

reroll: 1d10 ⇒ 4

This is the avatar G-unit will be using if selected.

These are the tenets she plans on following if you would like to add/subtract anything let me know: Courtesy, Lawfulness, Bravery, Humility in one’s deeds, Unselfishness, Good-temperedness, Piety, Kindness, Honor, Law, Loyalty, Courage, Responsibility, Honesty, Compassion, Duty.

It looks like you have taken your players info and formatted them with hero lab. With that in mind here is her bare bone info. If you would like me to format it let me know. (I don’t have hero lab)

I will need lots of help trying to figure out how Jhenn got here.

First of all this is a 25 point buy so you have 5 more points to use. So far the rest is working, sorry had my game today and family here from out of town for mothers day.
Not that it is a big deal but you neglected to account for the masterwork cost of your armor, shield and sword for a total of 600 GP.
Just need to add the 5 points and finish fleshing out the paladin attributes. Everything else looks good! Ciri and Rose would approve!!!

Jhenn dedicated her life to Mitra since she was 8 years old. Sacrificing friends, family, and wealth along the way. After serving in the temple she was chosen as a squire for Sir Abram a paladin of Mitra at age twelve and after several years of service was chosen as a paladin by her god. Since then she has traveled the land dispensing justice, righting wrongs, and defending the weak. Recently she was lost in a sandstorm and felt led to an underground complex.

No worries, hope you were able to enjoy your day! Point buy adjusted, put the extra 5 into con to bump it to 16.

Still need
2 Mercies
1 Divine Bond
Paladin spells

The party has items in inventory that they can give you.

Bond - weapon
Mercies- shaken, dazed
Spells -
(1st) lessor restoration, protection from evil
(2nd) resist energy, zone of truth

That works for me. Dot Gameplay and join discussion please.

B4. Sterncastle: This high deck sits behind the
mizzenmast, 20 feet above the main deck. A pair of light
ballistas sit upon this deck, next to a box containing a
dozen ballista bolts. Who are manning them?

Wrong campaign

And wrong thread. C’mon brvheart!

So I am getting old!!!

:D

What about Unchained classes like the rogue

We are not needing a rogue at present and I don't do experimental classes ie Unchained. We may be looking for a Warpriest of similar though.

@brvheart, if you are looking for a warpriest or such, would a adjusted version of Khmec Hathos work for you?

Things to adjust:

Level 9 >> 8 (note, that will drop the Dawnflower Anchorite PRC, which I suspect that you don't have the source for.)
Diety Horus >> Mitra
Stats 20 >> 25 points
Feats: Will need review for source acceptability (Healer's Hands is outside your list of sources for one)
Equipment: not as much money...

Hmm, always like any dawnflower flavored character, fits the area and campaign, but not familiar with that one and usually specifically the one diety. F you can make it with Mitra, great.

Inanna aka Ishtar is the ancient Sumerian goddess of love, sensuality, fertility, procreation, and also of war. She later became identified by the Akkadians and Assyrians as the goddess Ishtar, and further with the Hittite Sauska, the Phoenician Astarte and the Greek Aphrodite, among many others.

I'm getting a might confused about what the allowed sources are. The starting post makes no mention of the Advanced Class Guide - yet you have a Arcanist and a Swashbuckler in the party. There's a Pact wizard archetype (from Haunted Heroes Handbook). You have strange feats running around various PC's: Fey Foundling (from the Inner Sea World Guide) and Choral Support (Teamwork, from Distant Realms).

Can someone clarify what is and is not allowed?

https://www.britannica.com/topic/Ishtar-Mesopotamian-goddess

Also known as: Inanna
Written and fact-checked by
Last Updated: Jun 24, 2024 • Article History
Ishtar, in Mesopotamian religion, goddess of war and sexual love. Ishtar is considered a member of the special class of Mesopotamian gods called the Anunnaki.

(Akkadian), Sumerian: Inanna
Ishtar is the Akkadian counterpart of the West Semitic goddess Astarte. Inanna, an important goddess in the Sumerian pantheon, came to be identified with Ishtar, but it is uncertain whether Inanna is also of Semitic origin or whether, as is more likely, her similarity to Ishtar caused the two to be identified. In the figure of Inanna several traditions seem to have been combined:.......

You have been raised to view yourself as a blade in Sarenrae's service, or you have taken on that duty for yourself. Whenever you score a critical hit with a scimitar, you deal 2 additional points of fire damage to your target.


Serenrae is Ishtar equivalent, from 2000 to 2007 we used mythology to create and published over a 1000 different mythos deities for the Judges Guild Wilderlands of High fantasy campaign setting while writing it and that eventually is what became the current campaign for Dark Tower, Lost Lands sources by Frog God Games in Pathfinder 1E and DnD 5E. So all of this from Judges Guild and Frog God Games for 3e and pathfinder, including 1E sources of equivalent for inspiration.

We use every source in PFSRD prior to pathfinder unchained, with definitely no munchkin unchained classes. Everything after that is on a as needed basis subject to DM approval taken case by case. We Do a lot of mixing a matching, with some old school customization. Most of the later splat books and archetype are ok, just not 2e. We had a player munchkin unchained on us which left a bad taste in our mouths for that specific book.

Advanced anything, including the class guide, but some alternate and hybrid classes just don't fit the campaign, so ask. For instance, witches have their place, but not here, nor does the ninja or slayer in a polorized good vs evil campaign.

IE what does a archon paladin do when the resident slayer uses some insidious method to kill someone, now the paladin is honor bound to avenge them against the slayer and PVP gets lit, no fun.

A lot of our magic is converted to standards as we go since we are converting on the fly, consider this a beta test.

I allow some classes form the ACG. As I run pirate campaigns, including currently a Skull&Shackles game I go allow a lot of sea faring sources. Mostly it is what I have for HeroLab which includes most things just short of Unchained. APG, ACG, UM, UC, most Golarian suppliments which are too numerous to enumerate. I don't do much third party except for Frog God Games.

I could rework this character. Or could try another Healer type. As I am assuming you need a healer type

We had originally a cleric and two Warpriests. We are now down to just the cleric. The advantage of the Warpriest is he can also fight but an oracle or similar works also.

So you are needing a tank caster

Looking at the party,
Jim and Jenn are melee
Frak is a sneak (and also melee w/SA)
Ciri blasting spells and melee
Thoron Channelling and support casting (bless, Blessings of Fervor, prayer and healing)
Ffafnyr doesn't really have a pattern yet...

I'd say the party could use more support casting, backup healer, skills (face - does anyone bluff?, some backup for Fralk).

I think this adds up to some sort of bard or a skald? An alternative would be an Oracle or perhaps a Herald Caller Cleric

I see,,,,Hmmm A support Face

Any of those would work although Ffafnyr has not posted in over a month. could use someone that can take point and lead also.

I'm a frontliner, baby! Just always roll bad init :)

I was gonna say I have a Bloodrager, but since that looks off the table I might try something. I just am not a fan of the Warpriest. I like things about it just not it itself.

Same WRT to warpriests.

Well I am working on a replacement to Ffafnyr an Elven Enchanter [Manipulator] with a Poppet Familar.

I like bloodrager myself and skald

Good to know hmmm lol I could do both Muwahaha

Nothing wrong with it per se, just a little hard seeing one on a holy quest.

I mean the Blues Brothers went on a holy quest to save the orphange they were bards

I mean the Blues Brothers went on a holy quest to save the orphange they were bards

"We're on a mission from 'God."

I just like the quote but, leave appropriateness to the DM!

Hey, the Blues Brothers is an all time classic! Now if the character IS on a mission from god, who am I to question it?

Well, I need a character. Seems we have another one AWOL at present.
