![]() If you have the time and enjoy a real challenge, you should give it a crack. Just be cautious, use your head, but don't be afraid to actually explore. Also, if your character belongs to the Sages, you should Absolutely play it. The time is really the biggest issue and if that's handled you should be fine as long as your party is reasonably balanced, but I can't imagine many 7-11's are going to be playable with a party of six fighters/swashbucklers or something. ![]()
![]() One of my DM's did this as well. There was a huge explosion due to something involving a fireball and a bunch of explosive materials. He simply ruled evasion wasn't gonna work because the explosion is so big there's no way to dodge. I didn't have the evasion, so it didn't affect me, but I would've been pretty annoyed if I had a core class feature suddenly get nerfed with no prior warning. I think it's fine to say evasion won't work in all cases, but you definitely need to make that clear during character creation, so the player can decide if that changes his mind on what to play. ![]()
![]() What Philippe said. At level 1-2, Harsk is a perfectly acceptable character when you need some wild empathy and no one wants to play a druid or whatever. Anything else means a new player is likely going to have a bad time, or an experienced player is opting for hard mode. The latter is fine if the party is cool with it, the former is a problem. ![]()
![]() As long as they are below level one you can retrain as much as you want. You can go from a Dwarven monk to an efreeti wizard to a Nagaji Occultist with no problems until you play as a level two chracter. But for chronicle sheets, it matters which character number you assigned the credit too. You can't assign credit from -2, -3 and -4 all to -1, even if they were all level one. ![]()

Armored Scales (Ex) Nagaji have a +1 natural armor bonus. Bonus Feat A flowing monk replaces the normal monk bonus feats with the following - Agile Maneuvers, Combat Reflexes, Deflect Arrows, Dodge, Improved Reposition*, Improved Trip, Nimble Moves, and Weapon Finesse. At 6th level, the following feats are also available - Acrobatic Steps, Bodyguard*, Improved Disarm, Improved Feint, Ki Throw*, Mobility, Second Chance*, and Sidestep*. At 10th level, the following feats are added - In Harm's Way*, Repositioning Strike*, Snatch Arrows, Spring Attack, and Tripping Strike*. (Asterisks denotes feats from the Advanced Player's Guide.) Bullied You were bullied often as a child, and you are now constantly ready to defend yourself with your fists when an enemy comes near. Flurry of Blows (Ex) You can make a flurry of blows as a full-attack action. Low-Light Vision (Ex) You can see x2 as far as humans in low illumination. Characters with low-light vision have eyes that are so sensitive to light that they can see twice as far as normal in dim light. Low-Light Vision is color vision. A spellcaster with low-light vision can read a scroll as long as even the tiniest candle flame is next to her as a source of light. Characters with low-light vision can see outdoors on a moonlit night as well as they can during the day. Low-Light Vision Nagaji can see twice as far as humans in conditions of dim light. Redirection (Ex) At 1st level, as an immediate action, a flowing monk can attempt a reposition or trip combat maneuver against a creature that the flowing monk threatens and that attacks him. If the combat maneuver is successful, the attacker is sickened for 1 round (Reflex DC = 10 + 1/2 the monk's level + monk's Wisdom modifier to halve the duration), plus 1 additional round at 4th level and for every four levels afterward (to a maximum of 6 rounds at 20th level). The monk gains a +2 bonus on the reposition or trip combat maneuver check and the save DC for redirection increases by 2 if the attacker is using Power Attack or is charging when attacking him. The benefit increases to a +4 bonus and an increase of the saving throw by 4 if both apply. At 4th level, a flowing monk can use redirection against an opponent that the flowing monk threatens and that attacks an ally with a melee attack. At 8th level, a flowing monk can make both a reposition and a trip maneuver as part of a single immediate action with this ability. At 12th level, a flowing monk can use redirection against any opponent that attacks him in melee, even if the flowing monk is not threatening the opponent who attacks him. A flowing monk can use this ability once per day per monk level, but no more than once per round. This ability replaces stunning fist. Resistant Nagaji receive a +2 racial saving throw bonus against mind-affecting effects and poison. Serpent's Sense (Ex) Nagaji receive a +2 racial bonus on Handle Animal checks against reptiles, and a +2 racial bonus on Perception checks. Veteran of Battle (Gorum) You have fought in several battles, and each time felt the presence of Gorum guiding your sword-arm, making you ready to act at a moment's notice. You gain a +1 trait bonus on Initiative checks, and if you are able to act during a surprise round, you may a draw a weapon (but not a potion or magic item) as a free action during that round. Weapon and Armor Proficiency Monks are proficient with club, crossbow (light or heavy), dagger, handaxe, javelin, kama, nunchaku, quarterstaff, sai, shuriken, siangham, and sling. Monks are not proficient with any armor or shields When wearing armor, using a shield, or carrying a medium or heavy load, a monk loses her AC bonus, as well as her fast movement and flurry of blows abilities. ![]()
![]() Here is Lyoto's general backstory: Lyoto has a master of martial artistry and a champion of combat in the underground pit fighting circuit. Yet the cheers of the crowd have started to ring hollow. He wonders if he should be using his fighting for a greater cause. He is sick of being pegged as "just another fighter" who has no brains or other useful talents. He wants to be admired for who he is. Not just for his hand-to-hand combat skills. When he learned about the Pathfinder Society, he leapt at the opportunity to prove his worth for a greater cause. ![]()

Wilbert is a bitter elf, born in the city of Taldor with lame legs and a constant sense of morbidity. However, during his 120+ year life span, he has become quite adept at manipulating people. He knows when to fake a smile, when to tell a polite lie and he has a knack for quickly getting to know the ins-and-outs of whatever city he finds himself in. He joined the city watch, learned how to use a spear, developed some basic fighting skills and made a couple friends. but what he wants more than anything is to figure out what, if any, purpose he has in life. |
