I've often wondered if Pathfinder will ever see the return of a class structured off of a D4 hit dice rather than the current minimum D6. The main reason for my asking is I often play the squishy, sit in the far back, supporting spellcaster of my groups, and in some cases it's better to play squishier classes that offer the overall lower hit points pool in exchange for the extra abilities/spells/whatever that they gain.
Thoughts on the benefits or drawbacks of such a concept are appreciated, thank you for reading!


Title, I'm having trouble re-creating the "Railgun" (Misaka Mikoto) from A Certain Scientific Railgun, with the Kineticist class.
It fits very well outside of one issue - I want to recreate the truly devastating "signature blast" she uses. As of yet, I can't seem to find a way to get very close outside of being an Admixture Wizard and making Disintegrate deal electricity damage.
Thoughts and ideas welcome.


Title. I play a lot of bards, and have done extensive research into finding a reason to play one of these instead of Inspire Courage or whatever. At one point I condensed the incredibly long activation times by making them into "scrolls" through the Pathfinder Chronicler, but they were still incredibly situational or flat out bad...

Are there any plans for these thing to be reworked or...something? I love finding things to add new twists or flavor to a Bard, but these are generally just not worth it...at all.

So my group is wanting to do a "superhero" game, where everyone makes characters in Pathfinder based off actual heroes (or villans). My question is this: I'm wanting to construct Loki, preferably from an Arcane Trickster.
My only problem is that for theme purposes, he pretty much needs to be a sorcerer, which will already make it more difficult than going wizard. Some of my group is more "oldschool" (as far as Pathfinder goes), and I worry about convincing them of the validity of newer material, but it may be my only hope of getting into the PrC before something ridiculous like 7th or 8th level.

TL;DR share tips for a sorcerer based Arcane Trickster that won't be completely terribad
