One of my players is entertaining the idea of making a Magus with a defensive build. They approached me with an unusual question. If they were to meld a Tower shield with their spellbook, with the Shield Tome feat, would there be any adverse effects, aka, would the Tower shield's speed penalty be persistent or only be present when in the shield form and not in the book form. Personally, I'm partial of making the penalty (-5 spd) persistent in all forms while the book is melded with the Tower shield. What say you?

Additionally, would the melded tome take on the weight of the tower shield or would it be a combination of the Tome and the Tower shield?


A rag-tag group of amnisiatic orphins raised by a secretive monistary. Ten children were born with strange runic birthmarks and raised with no knowledge of the outside world. A small group must now find a way to usurp the infernal lords that took power twelve years ago.

This is the third era of an on-going and ever evolving home-brew campaign setting.


Setting
In the wake of the last flight is a Pathfinder home brew were the PC's are able to mold the shape of the world.

History
90 years ago, without reason or warning the god-dragons that watched over the world rose up from their nests, grottoes, aviaries, and pools and flew off into the horizon. They took with them their children and their most prized servants and heralds, leaving the realms to fend for themselves. These God-dragons were so powerful their very presence effected the lands around them, along with the etherial borders to other planes.

Without these draconic wardens the world has become a pit of chaos, a war zone for powerful beings and forces vying for control. In the wake of these immense beasts a number of peoples have sprung forth claiming the realms as their own. Opposing to these indigenous people are a number of outsiders trying to gain control.

Humen, Elves, Dwarves, Furbolg, Orc, and Gnomes served as serf and servant when the God-dragons rested. Now they claim the realms as their birthright, opposed by the Nephilim of the outer planes, and the Elemental Lords of the inner planes who are both battling for territorial control.


I recently lost two four players to my high fantasy, fast advancement campaign and I'm looking for two or more replacements.
The campaign already has a wizard and his oracle (of life) follower, along with a elven sniper (summoner/rogue). there are 4 pre-made characters (a half-elf fighter/witch, a gnomish barbarian, an elven whip specialized fighter, and a halfling (formerly half-orc) dragon blooded sorcerer/monk)
