I think you should consider going into the Technomancer PrC

Honestly, why?

Those are a lot of good points Kazaan. I will have to consider exactly what i want to do with my undead....

On the firearms bit, the GM has declared that most firearms are simple weapons, so that's not a problem. Good point in orator, that prereq isn't showing up on the app I am using. The light armor proficiency is something i would like to keep, as he is using it in tandem with this;
Chameleon Suit

Price 15,000 gp; Type light; Weight 5 lbs.;Max Dex +6; Penalty 0; Spell Failure 9%;Speed (30 ft.) 30 ft.; Speed (20 ft.) 20 ft.;Capacity 50; Usage 1 charge per minute

DESCRIPTION

This suit of light woven-fiber armor covers the wearer from ankle to wrist and includes a hooded cowl. Its surface consists of millions of tiny, scale-like lenses and LED screens. When powered on, a chameleon suit analyzes its environment and generates digital camouflage. The wearer gains a +10 competence bonus on Stealth checks and can hide in plain sight(as a ranger in his favored terrain).

This allows my character to move around the battlefield and plant explosives, sabotage formations, escape, etc. Eventually i just planned on getting a mithral one.

As far as Undead go, I hadn't really decided yet as far as how i wanted to run them, but my group is fairly experienced and down for whatever. What are the pros and cons of horde - elite?
And i have not seen guardians of the galaxy (Everyone says i need to though.)

We are starting a sci-fi/fantasy campaign that sees us, the 3 pc's, as an elite interstellar peace keeping force. Pathfinder standard rules, only with some custom gun options and using the technology guide (at 10% of listed prices there.)
I had this idea to play a necromancer. Decided to go wizard, and ran with the idea that this PC was the son of a powerful politician in the government. After raiders attacked the ship he was traveling on, his escape pod brought him to a dangerous planet, where he was taken in by a race of creatures that not only saw death as a process rather than an end, but could control this process. He is raised by this race of creatures, and taught their ways. Unfortunately, when the search party arrives on the planet years later, a misunderstanding occurs which leads to war, and after retrieving the young PC the race is wiped out. This causes the young PC to hate both his father and the republic, and not too long after that he escapes to become a terrorist.
Campaign starts several years after that. The galactic republic has encountered several new, intelligent societies bent on violence, and needs a strong behind the scenes presence. So they put together a small team to take action against threats both internal and external. They offer the PC complete pardons from all prior crimes in exchange for his support; to which he agrees. That's the fluff, now for the crunch.

Thoughts on the background, the numbers, or what? And how should/can I grow this PC into being a full-fledged Necromancer? Thank you!!

Talked to the GM. He says its cool to replace any redundant spells learnt with appropriate level equivalents.
As this is my first time playing a full caster, what kind of magic items and whatnot should i be looking for?

Anything by paizo, all official materials. 3rd party stuff is a no-go.

Blackened is staying for character identity reasons. He isn't very strong, and his charred hands make holding weapons difficult. Therefore he is looking to find heroic individuals to help him clean his homeland (taking leadership to accomplish this).
I could ask the gm about the overlap between spells, but he already made the ruling about burning magic so i don't want to be greedy.

I'm more or less looking for good feats/ future builds for a blaster/healer caster with face skills. I don't need someone to build the character for me, just want some recommendations and suggestions. Thank you for helping me!

Super out of my comfort zone with this class. Used to beat em up martials, so I tried to go for something different this time.
Things to know; 1- stats were rolled 4d6 subtract the lowest, but they were preassigned rolls (1st was strength, 2nd dexterity, etc) with one reroll.
2- GM has ruled that burning magic acts off caster level, not spell level. May be reversed later, but he was pretty solid on this.
3- party is composed of a tiefling swashbuckler, aasimar draconic sorceror, a shield champion half-orc and me, the flame oracle.
so with out further delay, here is the character.

Spells by level - 0 = Detect poison, stabilize, guidance, spark. 1 = Burning hands, cure light wounds, Forbid action.
Feats

I am playing this character as the face of the party. I plan on taking leadership at 7. Any real good revelations or feats i should be looking at for the future? As stated above, campaign is reign of winter. Please leave thoughts and critque below. Thank you!

The only issue i have with the Swordsage idea is that for fluff purposes, i am using a reach weapon to fight, specifically a 2-handed polearm. This means I cannot use spell combat, and this in turn limits my usage of spell strike.
I was hoping for a 2 handed magus variant in the advanced class guide, but i can't complain really.

Playing a Fighter in a homebrew campaign, and after an encounter with a foe he couldn't harm with physical weapons, he started to look into Wizardry.
Fighter 2/ Wizard 4
HP:69
Str: 20
Dex: 17(+1 transmutation school)
Con: 17
Int: 17
Wis: 12
Cha: 11
Feats: Combat reflexes, Improved Initiative, Exotic weapon proficiency (Fauchard,) Power Attack, Toughness, Additional Traits (to pick up Magical Knack and Trustworthy)
Arcane School: Transmutation

Normal combat consists of usually going early in the order, casting Mage Armor and then moving into a tactical position. Enemies usually charge in and get stabbed, sometimes killed on the way in. After that, it's 5 foot steps and more stabbing until they are dead. if i can't get reach, the Cestus comes out to play. If mage armor is already up, shield or bull's strength are his next go-to's.

I was planning on going fighter 2, wizard 5, Eldritch Knight 10, wizard 3 and calling it good.
what kind of feats should i be taking? I was thinking of going into the Dimensional Agility feat chain, but is that going to be worth it?

Wow, i must have been tired last night...

Okay, so first thing, I am playing a Battle SHAMAN, not oracle. Don't know how i got that messed up.
And yes, i want Combat Reflexes, but are there better options for a Shaman at level 1?
I also need to pick a familiar, but am unsure of which one would go well in this campaign. Probably something that can fly or swim?

Level 1 Battle Oracle
Strength: 18
Dexterity: 16
Constitution: 13
Intelligence: 12
Wisdom: 17
Charisma: 15
Hit Points: 13
AC: 16
Initiative: 5
Fortitude: 2
Reflex: 3
Will: 5

Longspear (+4, 1D8+6)

Spells
Lvl 1
Blend, Cure light wounds, Produce Flames, Slumber, Enlarge person (Spirit Magic)

Feats
Toughness, (have another, undecided)
Okay, so to start off, i really have no idea how to build this character. Plan is to pick up combat reflexes and Battle Master to use Attacks of opportunity while buffing on my turn.
Tldr, i haven't picked my last feat, i haven't picked my familiar and our first game is sunday.

So how would i go about crafting a Magic item that is a Fauchard on one end and a metamagic rod on the other?

Thank you for everyone who has contributed to this thread, but i want to clear up a few misconceptions.
1. Setting. This campaign will take place in a setting where magic is extremely rare. The only people capable of performing magic are called 'Pact-makers' due to the fact that each has a ritual that must be enacted after having used said magic (if this sounds familiar, check out "Darker than Black.") The PC's will all be servants of a royal family currently trying to decide which son/daughter of the dying king will inherit the throne. This results in a large amount of intrigue, as each PC may be serving different members of the family.
The campaign starts as this, but eventually will grow into something i cannot discuss here (as my players frequent these boards.)
2. The party WANTS to play this style of campaign. To those who think i am 'forcing' it on them, you can probably take a hike; i doubt you have anything constructive to add past that i am a terrible DM.
3. Encounters. This is primarily a human inhabited world. Not a whole lot of monsters, just mainly people. The players are people. The bad guys are people. Therefor i am not really concerned about "balancing" encounters too much.
4.Healing. As stated above, i don't think that healing will be an issue.
With those clarifications, shall we continue?

So i am going to be running a homebrew campaign where magic is basically non-existent. The PC's may only take levels in non-caster classes (sans gunslinger) and are each going to have a random spell-like ability, and this is the only form of magic in my campaign. Does anyone have any experience or advise for running such a campaign?

Didn't see that,my bad. So swapping out Reactionary for Courageous and improved initiative for Iron Will sounds good?

Exile and Reactionary give me +2 to initiative, then i have seeker, the perception class skill trait, and world traveler, the sense motive class skill. That's how I have an 11 for initiative (3+4+2+2)

Was also considering toughness at level 1. Should i wait till level 3?

So is RotRL just not as scary as everyone makes it out to be? Granted, because he wants to use the Mythic adventures book, the DM is going to make the campaign harder on us.
Where should i be going as far as feats are concerned? Any gems i should know of?

Character was born and raised in Minkei, long story short, and while a Nodachi is an eastern weapon, it is a martial one, not exotic. The reason why its masterwork is because i had the idea of it being the sword of a grandmaster of an extinct school of swordsmanship. The DM liked the idea so much that he gave everyone 200 extra gold starting.
Exiled trait is from the players companion guide for the rise of the runelord adventure iirc.
And you are correct, the GM chooses (it will probably be the same thing however, because of background reasosn and due to the fact that he only currently owns 3 items :p)

So on Sunday we will be starting our first session, and while this might be a little late i wanted to see if our group/my PC is up to snuff. So for starters, here is my fighter, Sojiro.
Human fighter 1 - Sojiro
Str 20, Dex 16, Con 15, Int 12, Wis 13, Cha 7
Initiative 11, HP 13 AC 18 (+3 Dex, +5 Kikko armour)
Fort 4, Reflex 3, Will 1
Masterwork Nodachi + 8/1d10+7
Feats: Power attack, Improved Initiative, Weapon Focus (Nodachi)
Traits: Exiled, Seeker, Reactionary, World Traveler, Attached (Nodachi)

Any glaring flaws I have made? The rest of our party consists of a half-orc barbarian, an illusionist gnome wizard and a human druid. The DM is going to run this as a mythic campaign as well.

Cool, thanks guys!

Seeker is a magus, and we are currently level 5. This being said, the whole "bad guy going good guy thing" could work, but it would need to be quite the revelation.

Small snag in a campaign i am in. many monsters in their entry, such as wolves have an attack that reads as follows; bite +3 (1D6+3 plus trip)
Does this mean the wolf performs a trip CMB after hitting? Or does he auto trip? Can someone direct me to the appropriate rules section please?

Hello,

Some of you may have visited my other thread where i discussed the character i was playing in a homebrew setting (Ravnica for you magic fans out there). This is the thread for those interested (http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2qxzw?What-is-my-PCs-alignment#16)
So the issue i have is that this character, Seeker, is rapidly growing in power. With our last session he has assassinated the son of the wealthiest man in the city during an open air ball, and after raiding a slavers den, just found a +4 dueling katana and boots of teleportation, vastly increasing his mobility and prowess.
Seeker is, to relate, a magical version of the punisher. He seeks out those he views as evil and kills them in accordance with a very strict sense of justice. He has already caused quite a bit of chaos in the campaign, and with his new mobility i am sure he will cause even more.
I had talked to my GM about possibly switching characters if it became an issue at the table (which so far it hasn't) but at the same time, the party has only fought together 2 times out of 7 sessions. Seeker doesnt trust his companions (a raise dead cleric and a pyromancer) and so is loathe to work with them.
The other character (a gun wizard) would play better with others, and we were thinking of having the gunmage chasing after seeker because of his vigilante activity.
As of right now we havent had a whole lot of direction in our campaign, which i think is most of where this chaos stems from. Seeker isn't the kind of vigilante to stay idle while we wait for the plot to catch up to us.
What could the GM or I do to fix the issue? Is it as simple as rolling a different character? I am attached to this one, and am having fun playing him.
TLDR; Seeker is maybe too renegade for the group, playing a new character might fix this, but i like this one. Help my GM and myself fix this?

Kazaan... that was beautiful... i think you nailed this character exactly the way i have been playing him. 
There's a little bit more to him as well. 
He is called "The Seeker" by many in the campaign. After a successful raid of a powerful and influential church, the party decided to lay low for about a month. 
Seeker enters a brothel (his impromptu base of operations) but doesn't come out. Instead, a man called Solas Avari comes out. Solas Avari is the son of a wealthy merchant, but is frail and sickly, and so is considered by many to be a recluse. He is polite, caring and sociable and holds a position as a great philanthropist. 
Basically i am running with the idea of a Dr. Jekle and Mr Hyde persona, where Solas (actually just an alias) dons the mask and cloak, becomes seeker. This resulted from a tragedy in his past, that left the good-willed child unable to reconcile with the world,a a result a second personality was born, to reshape the world into something where evil is punished. 
The other PC's don't know any of this, nor do many people at all. Thoughts?

So in our campaign i am playing a magus who views justice (the act of punishing those who do evil) as a law of nature. He is ruthless towards these ends however, as he views those who would stand in his way as the unjust, while his actions are sacrosanct. He has no problem killing people or even torturing them.
In the current campaign he has burnt down a warehouse district and an abandoned building( two seperate incidents) because they were being used by an anarchistic military group. Then he led an ambush on a caravan of these people, and brutally interogated a wizard.
His trail for revenge led him to an academy where he abducted a teacher for information. This information led him to a church, where he abducted an 8 year old girl (important to him) and lit the church on fire.
My question is this: what would you say his alignment be? He believes in justice for all, but justifies the means with the end. It may not be important, but i want some outside feedback.

Kay. Scratch that idea then. Well, on to the second idea i guess. Are there any supplements that focus mainly on ice magic or magic involving swords?

Hey ya'll. In our current campaign, I am running a 3rd level Kensai Magus. I want to multiclass him into a summoner, any one have any experience with this? Anything I should avoid like the plague? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the speedy replies. I really like your guys ideas, because that is basically how I figured he would act. I figured he will probably have mixed feelings toward half humans, and probably doesn't like dwarves, but doesn't hate them. He gets along well with elves and respects good dragons immensely.
All in all I am pretty excited to play this character.

So my group are starting the rise of the runelords adventure path, and I was wanting to play a bladebound magus. I'm pretty bad with background though, so I turned to the ultimate campaign generator....and this what I got.
My human magus was born to traveling merchants, who were killed by bandits when he was young. Then a gold dragon found the baby and raised the child. The gold dragon teaches the boy all all sorts of history, which coupled with the dragons outlook and his tragic past, lead the boy to become racially biased towards humans. He considers himself "enlightened."
He is chaotic good, and when the gold dragon dissappears he chases after it, leading him to the adventure hook. So my question is, how do I roleplay a racist good guy? Any ideas or suggestions?

Hello everyone, this is my first time posting here. My friends and I are starting a pathfinder campaign, with me as GM. I'm a sucker for narrative, so the campaign is going to be set in a dark fantasy setting. The idea i have been playing around with is that the PC's are invited to the capital city of a kingdom, where they discover that there is a serial killer on the loose. They are asked to investigate and find the killer.
The killer turns out to be the princess, who with the help and urging of a demonic text, believes the royal court to be conspiring against her sickly mother(who has actually contracted a disease that is slowly turning her into a zombie.)
Here is the catch; The Princess is an X level wizard who uses phantom killer to do her dirty work. She is never at the murder scene when it happens, instead casting the spell from a distance, out of sight. With her status protecting her, and her docile nature, she seems like the last suspect on the PC's list. Basically, i need help leveling her up to a reasonable threat level.
The ordeal is more of catching the princess, rather than the actual fight. She isn't going to be able to actually fight the PC's rather well, so escape is her best option. She can even use her status as a weapon against them. Even when they catch her, the PC's judgment on her punishment would send shock waves through the kingdom. She would rather run than fight, so i have given her a bunch of spells pertaining to that idea, but what do you think? Any spells or items a must have? She is a princess, so the acquisition of rare items is not a problem.
