A friend of mine wishes to create a human urban ranger, which would definitely be useful to the party, as we currently lack anyone with the ability to disarm magical traps, and the general features of that archetype suit him quite nicely.

However, I have come across a bit of a snag; I've heard various people saying that picking you can't pick your own type (or subtype) without having an alignment of evil. That said, I can't seem to find that anywhere in my pathfinder core rule book. Have I missed something?

Thank you in advance!

I've very recently introduced a friend to the joys of tabletop RPing, and he seems to have enjoyed it thus far. However, the type of character he would be interested in playing would be very much in the back line of combat, helping the party in either social environments and/or improving equipment/items. However, I'm also fairly new to Pathfinder myself, and I've looked through various variants of classes, but I can't think of a particular build that would really reflect that.

We're currently playing Curse of the Crimson Throne, and the party is lvl 5.
