Good day fellas. I'm planning to run Tyrant's Grasp with some modifications to include some horror films references. I was thinking in include Art the Clown as a villain who stalk the party since book 1 to add a bit of controlled pressure and challenge to the party, so i would be very thankful if you people can give me some points and opinions about my scrap:

Race: Human or fetchling
Class: Vigilante (serial killer archetype)
Template: Implacable stalker (to capitalize fear)
Abilities: Str 14 Dex 18 Con 14 Int 10 Wis 14 Cha 16
Skills: Focus on stealth, intimidate disguise, bluff, performance (comedy), a bit on acrobatics, perception.
Feats: I was thinking in feats that focus in improvised weapons and fear feats like shatter defenses, gory display, dazing display, dreadful carnage.
Gear: Basics magic items (dex belt, cloak of res, ring of prot, amulet of nat armor,

Oh, sorry, in case you are not much familiarized with Art, he is basically a serial killer with a mime gimmick. He never talks or screams (even in pain), his personality shifts from goofy to lunatic sadistic. He kills using whatever tool can have at hand. Usually carries a plastic bag with a myriad of variated weapons like hammers, scissors, power tools, knives, nails, bleach, acid, razors, etc. He uses to misdirect his victims with his clowny attitude until the moment of attack. His brutality and unerving smile trigger the fear and leaves his victims helpless and terrified.

My idea isn't overkill the party, just give them somebody to escape from until the moment (or level) when they can defeat him. For the first encounters i plan to put a deus ex machina, a cutscene or a solutions to incapacitate or slow him so they can run.

Well, that is my general idea, any advice will be very helpful

Thanks in advance.

Hello everybody.
My group is about to start Hell's Rebels and i want to play a new class for me, the vigilante. I used to make dex based builds, so this time i was thinking to go for str, so i wanted to build an avenger vigilante, but i couldn't help but notice this specialization tends to go for the dex route.
My initial idea is build an avenger specialized in improvised weapons, his gimmick is use the city as his weapon (just like the Miller's The Spirit hero). I don't know if is viable. I have a build in my pocket but uses the brawler hinyasi (because the unarmed damage to improvised weapons) archetype. I not a fan of multiclass because the social talents of the vigilante will be a great help in this AP, so i will preciate if anybody can give me a few pointers about the build. Im open to go full dex if that lets build it more easly.

I considering:
Feats:
-Shikigami style, Mimicry and Manipulation
-Catch Off-Guard
-Improvised Defense

Traits:
-Surprise Weapon

Talents:
-Enviroment Weapon
-Signature Weapon (improvised)
-Lethal Grace
-Shield of Fury

Any advice will be more than welcome

Hi everybody. Im current running Giantslayer and one of my players is using a magus/gunslinger and i want to give him run for his money.
In combat is very lethal because he uses to delays until the bard uses inspire courage and then unleashes (with point-blank master) his rapid fire twf pistols with spell catridges (force damage). Five touch force ranged attacks are lots of damage, for that reason the party is getting lazy and overconfident.
I was wondering if wind spells like wind wall can have effect in his bullets. Force is energy, but solid energy, so should be affected by physical forces like wind.
Any advice would be velcome.
Thanks

PD: i have one more question: Its possible to shoot pistols while being grappled?

Hi everybody. I need guidance about a lil debate within my party:
If i have an amulet of mighty fists that has a magical property (flaming, merciful, etc) but doesn't has an enhancement bonus (+1,+2), did my attacks counts as magic to bypass DR/magic ???????
Thank you very much in advance.

Hello everybody, i have many years playing as a PC but now im going to start my first AP as storyteller. My friends are a very experimented players, so i wanna put a challenge to them. I want to add the fear system into the Carrion Crown AP but i don't know how to add it, in which scenes, how to trigger the saves, how to determinate the levels of fear and how to calculate the DCs.

Any advice is more than welcome.

Thank you very much
