What would need to be changed? Core idea being that anyone could sell their soul to demons/Devils for power. I think the only changes would be that they cannot be resurrected, and their souls go to hell/the abyss regardless of alignment. Maybe to balance it out give their weapon the unholy quality for free. If they fall to evil let them convert into regular antipaladins. Any other problems/ideas? Seems like an idea/trope that pathfinder is lacking.
Winter Tide is my favorite of the new subgenre being critical/loving of Lovecraft while calling out his racist and sexist BS. It weaves several short stories together with historical events, but mostly deals with one woman, her found family, and her attempts at reconnecting with her lost heritage. The main character was a little girl when the government destroyed Innesmouth and put everyone in camps. The adults all died when the change came upon them. She and her brother are the last. There are parallels to Black Wall Street and to Japanese Internment. It's really good and I'm doing a bad job explaining. Prequel novella "litany of stone" should be up on the tor website. Google is your friend. Anyway, I'm mostly a lurker, but Tor is giving away free ebooks of the book itself(as opposed to prequel novella)until Friday ends so I'm spreading word. You have to sign up to their newsletter. Hard copies are expensive, I'm guessing this is to drive up amount of readers to get a chance at an award. It's good enough to win, though I don't know if enough people will read it. https://www.tor.com/2017/10/17/tor-com-publishing-winter-tide-ebook-downloa d/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=twitterpost&utm_term=tordotcomtwfo ls-tordotcomalltweets&utm_content=na-visit-blogpost&utm_campaign=to rdotcomalltweets
I've got a dwarf inquisitor NPC who has that infiltrator variant that lets him change how his alignment seems. He worships Pazuzu but pretends to worship Desna. I'd like him to have a few ways of calling upon his patron while seeming to call on Desna. Can you help me think of some cool titles to use?
I have an character idea half though experiment half waiting in the wings in case of death for a local non-PFS game, but the build will be losing many class features, and I would like ideas on how to make up for the lack, using only paizo material. Starting stats I'm thinking
Feral alternate racial trait so he won't know any languages. He will miss out on spells and the summon spell like abilities, but be pretty good in combat. Basically I want the summoner so be more like a companion and the eidolon to be more like a character (eidolon will be able to talk, I'll give it linguistics if I need to) Depending on the which game has character death first he'll be level five or seven. How do I optimize him and what feats/items/evolutions should I look into? |
