I really think LG should be there too. The edicts and anathema pretty much beg for it IMO.

He seems like a Calistrian version of Tsukiyo, the Tian LG god of Moon and madness.

I would have put boomerang (reskinned starknife with Bludgeoning damage) as his favored weapon though ;-)

Flavor-wise, I would have a hard time justifying an LG alignment. The major thing Khonshu is the god of is vengeance and vengeance isn't really lawful good. That would be justice.

I did take some flavor from Tsukiyo, just because they seemed to fit really well with Khonshu; going along with the idea that sometimes gods of different pantheons have distinct similarities.


I'm trying to make a Moon Knight character for Pathfinder, but none of the established gods really seems to fit. I thought I'd create Khonshu myself, but I'm only just getting into Pathfinder, and wanted to get some advice to do it right. This is what I have, but I would love to know what I can do better. My take on it would really focus on a few things: vengeance (and the violence behind it), protecting travelers, and touching upon the fringes of madness.

Khonshu

Also known as The Pathfinder, The Traveler, and The Defender, Khonshu is the god of the moon, travelers, vengeance, and rebirth. Having been killed by his jealous brother, Khonshu protects those on a journey, in this realm or the next. His righteous vengeance against beings who would harm those under his guidance is intense and tends to lead his practitioners into madness.

Edicts protect travelers and those who need it, seek out those who do evil for punishment, offer mercy after intense repentance

Anathema take advantage of those traveling, repeatedly allow evil to go unpunished
