Hey guys, looking for just one player for a homebrew game, starting at 5th level. Game is set in a type of purgatory, where our heroes must prove their souls innocence before getting sucked straight into hell. The kicker being; your memories of where you are and why you're here have been taken away.

The game is a little experimental, just trying things out. If you're expecting something that strictly abides by rules then you might prefer to move on. Expected posting rate is something around 2-4 days, nothing harsh, though I'll be posting as much as possible. Though there will be no straight pvp or griefing allies, I do not expect your character to be entirely unselfish or completely trusting of your newfound friends (though unfortunately you're still stuck together ;))

We've only just started, so you won't have missed anything so far. Give a read of the gameplay thread to get an idea of what you're in for.

Cheers.

Oy vey!
I'm very new to this, this is my first proper character really.I want a Plaguebringer ( http://www.d20pfsrd.com/races/other-races/featured-races/arg-ratfolk/plague -bringer-alchemist-ratfolk ), Vivisectionist ( http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/alchemist/archetypes/paizo---a lchemist-archetypes/vivisectionist ).

So the idea is, I want a character with high stealth, very dodgy, who scampers around to the back of the enemies for flanking and sneak attacks etc. He's also going to apply his disease to as many enemies as possible while he's there. Thing is though, I'm having trouble building him. I don't get to use bombs or mutagens, and I have +2 Int, +2 Dex, -2 Str due to being a Ratfolk. I would like to use mostly natural weapons with http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/arg-feats/sharpclaw-combat-ratfolk , as well as http://www.d20pfsrd.com/equipment---final/weapons/weapon-descriptions/tailb lade, and the Toothy trait from Half-Orcs (because of the adopted trait) which is a bite attack, and just dig in and infect as many things as possible really.

I need help building him is all, really. I'm afraid the low strength will hurt me too much, even if I take Weapon Finesse. I'm also doubtful as to the use of the Plague Vial anyway, if it only lasts for 10 minutes, and can only be used once a day, what's the point? That's like one fight... Even with the Sticky Poison discovery, which lets me retain the disease up to a number of times equal to my Int modifier, that's still going to run out pretty quickly, especially if I make a full attack against the same target (there's like, 4 stacks gone?)

With a 20 point buy, my stats so far are 8 STR, 18 Dex, 13 Con, 18 INT, 7 Wis and 11 Cha. That was a draft though, so I'm assuming get more str? Even with Weapon Finesse?

This is much harder than I thought it'd be...
