That's fine with me. I'll put one together.

How do you want to do aliases? I don't necessarily want to make four aliases for characters that could die immediately. But I'll do whatever is preferred.
Okay, my four characters are fleshed out and ready to go. Or die. Claude Baschet:
Name: Claude Baschet Occupation: Ditch Digger Alignment: Neutral Gender: Male HP: 3
Strength: 14 (+1)
Fort: +1
Init: +2
Weapon: Shovel (as staff) (+1, 1d4) Luck Modifier: Path of the bear: Melee damage rolls (-1)
Claude comes from a long line of celibate priests. But when Claude came of age, he made the blasphemous declaration that he likes women and wants to have a family. His father cursed him and told him that he could “Go dig a hole!” And that’s just what he did. Disinherited, Claude seeks adventure and wealth so that he can one day woo a wife. Afrotude Orefinger:
Name: Afrotude Orefinger Occupation: Dwarven Stonemason Alignment: Chaotic Gender: Female HP: 3
Strength: 15 (+1)
Fort: +1
Init: +0
Weapon: Hammer (as club) (+1, 1d4+1) Luck Modifier: Lucky sign: Saving throws (+0)
Trade Goods: Fine stone (10 lbs.)
Afrotude is a promising young stonemason. Unfortunately for her, she made one too many phallic carvings and lost her apprenticeship. Now she is on a mission to redeem her family name and to prove wrong all those who laughed at her. Gabi Katterfeld:
Name: Gabi Katterfeld Occupation: Beekeeper Alignment: Lawful Gender: Female HP: 5
Strength: 14 (+1)
Fort: +1
Init: +0
Weapon: Staff (+1, 1d4+1) Luck Modifier: Unholy house: Corruption rolls (+0)
Gabi is a diligent beekeeper. She doesn’t know how she ended up on this adventure and she just wants to go home. Her bees need her. Also she loves horses. Hamood al-Rahimi: Name: Hamood al-Rahimi Occupation: Cobbler Alignment: Neutral Gender: Male HP: 2
Strength: 9 (+0)
Fort: +0
Init: +0
Weapon: Awl (as dagger) (-1, 1d4-1) Luck Modifier: Pack hunter: Attack and damage rolls for 0-level starting weapon (-1)
Hamood is a traveling cobbler and a gluttonous overweight man. He recently got into a friendly discussion over whether he loved food or coin more. Ultimately, he decided on coin because it could buy him more food. With his well-developed sense of smell, he sniffed out nearby treasure and is determined to acquire it for himself.

I can work with these. I'll name them and fluff them out when I get a chance.
Do you want us to roll in this thread?
I might be interested in this.
I find paid GMs extremely distasteful and against the spirit of playing and running roleplaying games. I would never participate in a paid game, either as a paying player or charging people to play as a GM. If paid GMs are finding people willing to pay, I suppose there is a market for it, so who am I to judge. But if giving my opinion, I do not feel like this behavior of monetizing the hobby should be supported.
(@Peachbottom, I can't figure out why my Vindicator and Vitalis have the same +26 attack bonus with their respective +2 weapons, even though the Vindicator is one level higher - if you see something I'm missing, please let me know.) Looks like maybe you figured it out. But on Vitalis, I had: +13 Level, +6 Master, +5 Str, +2 Potency for a total of +26 So you should have: +14 Level, +6 Master, +5 Str, +2 Potency for a total of +27
Okay. I've picked out all my spells and feats. I think the last things I need to do is pick out the equipment and then put everything into some kind of organized format. Also I'm changing the character's name to Yujin.
This year has been weirdly tumultuous for me because I graduated, began working full-time for the first time (designing wastewater treatment plants), and met the love of my life and subsequently got engaged! So...yeah. Congratulations!
GM question: You said: "All PCs are automatically trained in sawtooth sabers in addition to their normal proficiencies." When my class gains Weapon Expertise, it says "Your proficiency ranks for simple weapons and unarmed attacks increase to expert." Would Weapon Expertise also include the Sawtooth Sabers or if I want to become Expert or better in the weapon, do I need to take a feat like Weapon Proficiency for it?
Hi. Welcome!
That's funny because the first time I played Starfinder, I went straight to a mental spellcaster who could explode heads, because exploding heads is just cool. My oracle will take a number of healing spells that should hopefully cover a lot of the party healing. Although, I also will try to build her so she can dish out some nice damage as well. I don't think she is going to end up with the Medicine skill.
Okay. I've put together my character concept and background. The crunch of the build will take longer to put together. I'm going to be a NE Female Human (Empyreal Dragonblood) Oracle/Red Mantis Assassin.
Appearance and Personality:
Despite her draconic blood, Mimi outwardly appears as a tall, muscular Tian woman. Her jet black hair is cut at her shoulders. Her viridian eyes are ice-cold and she holds herself in a haughty stance. She looks down upon and deems others as less-talented and unworthy of her notice unless proven otherwise. She single-mindedly focuses on her task at hand and is able to ward off unwanted distractions like love or fun. Her failure rate is near-zero and she privately chastises herself for public mistakes. She prides herself in earning the favor of the Blood Mistress at a young age but even that is just a stepping stone for her own ambitions. Background:
Hi,
Did any of you have any character class ideas you wanted to play as? I haven't settled on anything yet. I was waiting to see what other people were thinking first. Although I was looking at possibly oracle. A little bit about me:
As for comfort levels, I can't really foresee anything that would come up in this campaign that would make me uncomfortable.
Turns out the Wilderness Medic archetype was from a book that wasn't approved. I cannot find a suitable replacement so I'm simply removing it. I didn't make any other changes. I do feel like it diminishes the character concept a bit but that's my fault for not catching it at creation. Oh well. Here's the revised version: Lorcan O'dor: Lorcan O’dor NG Dwarf Ranger (Skirmisher) 1 of Dranngvit Male humanoid (dwarf) Init +0; Senses Darkvision 60 ft.; Perception +8 ====================

====================
====================
====================
Deep Marker (Dwarf): You’ve dared uncharted tunnels in pursuit of the gladdringgar (the chiseling of name-runes in subterranean depths). You gain a +1 trait bonus on Survival checks, and a +1 trait bonus on saving throws against fear effects. Friend in Every Town (Social): You have no problem making friends and learning information from them wherever you go. You gain a +1 trait bonus on all Knowledge (local) checks and Diplomacy checks. One of these skills (your choice) is always a class skill for you. Choice: Knowledge (local). ====================
Track (Ex): A ranger adds half his level (minimum 1) to Survival skill checks made to follow tracks. Wild Empathy (Ex): A ranger can improve the initial attitude of an animal. This ability functions just like a Diplomacy check to improve the attitude of a person (see Using Skills). The ranger rolls 1d20 and adds his ranger level and his Charisma bonus to determine the wild empathy check result. The typical domestic animal has a starting attitude of indifferent, while wild animals are usually unfriendly. To use wild empathy, the ranger and the animal must be within 30 feet of one another under normal visibility conditions. Generally, influencing an animal in this way takes 1 minute, but, as with influencing people, it might take more or less time. The ranger can also use this ability to influence a magical beast with an Intelligence score of 1 or 2, but he takes a –4 penalty on the check. ====================

Physical Description: Lorcan is a muscular dwarf who keeps his long copper beard parted down the center and braided into two separate fishtails. The rest of his long hair is braided and reaches down to his lower back. When not wearing his chain armor, Lorcan wears comfortable earth-tone robes and a dark green cloak for both protection from the elements and for stealth. Personality: Despite his past trauma and years of living on his own, Lorcan maintains a jovial personality and welcomes anyone into his circle that would call themselves a friend. When hunting or fighting, his tone turns serious and focuses on ending encounters quickly and efficiently. Likes: Lorcan likes reading and drinking tea. He likes long walks by himself in the wilderness and listening to the sounds of nature. Dislikes: Lorcan hates giants with a passion that cannot be quenched. He has dedicated his life to training to kill any giant that he comes across. He also dislikes large crowds and confined spaces. Quirks: After decades of tracking and especially studying the tracks left by giants, Lorcan has gains a minor quirk for feet. Lorcan gets particularly excited about fresh footprints and becomes loquacious about his findings. Phobias: Even since losing his parents in a near-death experience with cave giants in the Darklands, Lorcan is afraid of setting foot in another cave. He keeps this truth and secret and feels that he is an embarrassment of a dwarf for holding such a fear. However, Lorcan has a strong force of will and a loving heart and would bury his fear for the greater good if given no other choice. ====================
Lorcan O’dor is originally from the dwarven citadel, Kraggodan. His parents were thrill-seekers and spelunkers who would brave the tunnels into the Darklands, with each delve, challenging themselves to explore deeper than the last. When Lorcan came of age, at the age of 25, he joined his parents in the Darklands to participate in his first gladdringgar (the chiseling of name-runes in subterranean depths), a familial ritual that all members of the O’dor clan perform. All was going well; Lorcan reached the designated location and carved his name; however, along the return trip, his party was ambushed by a wandering band of cave giants. Both his parents were slain. They sacrificed their lives to buy Lorcan enough time to escape. Since that day, despite being a dwarf, the trauma runs strong and Lorcan has been hesitant to set foot underground again. Lorcan remained in Kraggodan for a few more years, but the painful memories were ever-present and eventually he decided he needed to leave. He declared vengeance on all giant-kind, calling them a blight against all dwarves. And he swore he would train until he was strong enough to exact said vengeance. For the next 30 years, Lorcan wandered the Mindspin Mountains alone, relying on hits wits and endurance alone to survive. After a while, he came across the small town of Trunau and began trading plants and wild game with the villagers for other supplies. He never intended to stay in one place, but something about the hearty humans kept him within the town’s orbit. As he continuing trading, he saw that these villagers were not unlike him and thought maybe it was time to finally settle down. Lorcan spent the small inheritance he received from his parents on a tiny shop in Trunau to live in and work out of. He named his shop Green Haze and works as an herbalist. Although not much of a people person, his friendly demeanor has allowed him a acclimate himself among the other Trunauns. And although he has rarely encountered any giants as of late, his weapon remains sharpened and ready for the time when it will be needed.
With the talk of personality, I fleshed out Lorcan's personality and description. Updated under background below. Lorcan O'dor

I won't say it's necessary but personality would be helpful. Isn't "Dwarf" a personality? =)

I'll throw my hat in the ring. I'm going to put together a Dwarf Ranger (Skirmisher/Wilderness Medic). I'll post the full character once I've finished putting it together.
Young kids and their Discord.
It puzzles me how many more Pathfinder 1 games are started on the boards than PF2e games. Because PF1e is better. =) But probably I'd guess many GMs are like me who are in the age range where they started with PF1e and are more familiar with it.
Maybe the person questioning this played D&D 3.5 in the past. Sometimes I get D&D brain when playing Pathfinder because they are similar. In 3.5, when you turned undead, if your level was twice that of the undead, the undead was destroyed instead of turned, so maybe he was thinking of something like that. But I don't think there is anything in the Pathfinder rules that says this.
Nope. Only your upper torso enlarges. Your legs stay the same size.
I'd much rather play on the Paizo forums than Discord too but I am also old.
Don't worry. I haven't received anything either. Hurray!
Don't worry. I have zero expectations.
@Dr. Ethyl Ermengarde Take the plunge and go evil.
I have managed to get wealth down to only 5 copper coins, near nothing. Don't underestimate earplugs. 3 cp.
Does Dr. Ermengarde also like Goosebumps books? ;)
What happens when you find out that someone's you consider an ally/friend would have been an enemy before you lost your memory? No one is an enemy unless they are trying to kill me. Otherwise, I just need to figure out the best way to take advantage of them. Giving myself a penalty to MIND-AFFECTING in this campaign seemed like a suitably masochistic thing to do, lol. I get some situational bennies to help counter it, but... yeah. Hey, me too! "You take a –2 penalty on Will saving throws against charm and compulsion effects if the creature creating the effect promises wealth or power." I'm sure that'll never come up...
@Peachbottom/Asrat thank you for the clarification on the characteristics. I can get behind your Child of the Temple explanation. I like it. I see you have cleric vestments and signet rings on your sheet. What deities would these belong to? Could you mark them on your sheet? Could prove important… My holy symbols would be one for each of the deities in the Core Book. The vestment itself wouldn't bear any particular symbol. I'm not carrying around a dozen outfits. The signet rings would be for Ahnkamen, Thrune, Arkona, and Kaijitsu.I'll write them all out if picked and I make a character sheet.
Fun fact Peachbottom, being an atheist would mean going to the Graveyard of Souls, possibly becoming a psychopomp, or being fed to Groetus. Yes. Not so pleasant. Also, Grigore's archetype is basically the Ustalav secret police. Directly at odds with your character lol. Would that be a problem? I'm not opposed to refining my character for better party cohesion. But I also think some conflict makes for interesting roleplaying opportunities.
DoubleGold it sounds like your character is exactly the kind of target mine would prey upon. He’ll tell you he knows your religion’s rules by heart and quote tenets that will steer you into acting in his benefit.
Well, it's a slight variant interpretation of trait if you'll allow it. I imagine he was like one of those people that hang out around the major tourist attractions in Europe and trick tourists out of money with cheap tricks or goods. He has a cleric's vestments and holy symbols of all the major religions. He would spend his days in the temple district looking for out-of-town suckers and would convince them that he was a priest of whatever deity the target worshipped and offer false prayers or cheap trinkets claiming them to be of religious significance for inflated prices. He'd spend a lot of time in the temple libraries and observing the other priests to gain a passing knowledge of each religions tenets to better pull off the con. So he was "serving" at a temple. Not an actual affiliate of any specific one. He also carries around a few false signet rings of noble houses to pull off a similar bluff. I'll say eventually the locals caught on and he was driven out of Osirion and eventually ended up in Ustlav after hitchhiking on a ship or caravan or two far to start the ploy again far from where he was known. (If that's not okay, I can change it. But I was hoping to find some way to get the Knowledge (religion) skill).Likes: Gold, power, luxuries beyond what he can afford, being cruel to the unfortunate.
I'm interested. I'll throw a character out there. My character would kinda be based off of Beni Gabor from the original Mummy movie. I'll use a picture of him for my character image. Here's my character sheet that I threw together. I'd format it a little better if picked and I make an alias. Asrat - Character Sheet:

Asrat, who originally hails from Osirion, is a ruddy brown-skinned man with a lean build and thinning hair. His eyes dart around and his ears constantly twitch as if he is always on alert. Asrat is a cowardly con-man who feigns religious or noble affiliations to swindle the simple-minded. He covets wealth and power although he has little of his own. He knows that he is not strong enough by himself so he must work with others to achieve his goals. He tends to throw in his lot with those that he perceives to be the most powerful. But if threatened and it comes down to him or someone else, he won’t hesitate to sacrifice an ally for self-preservation. I made an evil character but I'm good at roleplaying and would not do anything to disrupt the campaign or harm any other player's fun. I'm playing in one other game currently. Here is the link. Hell's Rebels
You could try these.
I use Litko's wooden bases for all my painted miniatures and I don't have any issue with warping. Spray paint them with a glossy black and you hardly tell the difference.
When will Archon actually ship anything to backers without additional purchase? After Wave 6?
Although not the Golarion setting, Erevis Cale of the Forgotten Realms setting comes to my mind as a cleric that is not a priest.
I was disappointed by the lack of spaceships. I purchased a case and got one of each ship. It would have been nice for there to have been at least one Common or Uncommon ship mixed in. It also would have been nice to have a space goblin. I know you can get on in the Galactic Villians set. But you only get one. I definitely need more than one goblin. Maybe a future set will get one. Otherwise, it was a good first Starfinder set. I look forward to what comes next.
I’m not that familiar with vigilante. How does it work? Does the vigilante’s secret identity need to be secret to the players too? Or just other npcs? Like would we be hanging out with Bruce Wayne and then when combat starts he just peace’s out and Batman is conveniently nearby?
Okay, here's my slightly revised character. Only changes are the language to Dwarven and a ditched a few pieces of gear to afford the signet ring. It isn't easy being noble. 4 of my 15 gp went to fine clothes and a ring. Now I have 1 sp to my name. =) Vitalis Tanessen: Champion 1 (Paladin) LG Male Chelaxian Human (humanoid [human]) Senses: Perception (Wis) (T) +3 ===============

Okay. I'll take Dwarven instead. With the Tanessen's business interests in armor and weapon crafting, they likely have dealings with dwarves. I haven't really noticed ethnic languages come up much in adventure paths so they are likely not very worth it unless there is a roleplaying reason for it. But I don't picture my character speaking Shadowtongue or Varisian. One more question, I'd like my character to have a signet ring for his house but I can't find it listed anywhere in any equipment charts? Can I have one and how much would it cost? I don't have a lot of coin left to spend though, but depending on what you say it costs, I might be able to change up some gear to afford it.
I forgot to add, my reason for protest would be to Protest the Government. Also, do we get a campaign trait? If so, I'd take the Child of Kintargo. How does that convert to a 2E benefit?
Okay. Here is Vitalis statted out. Vitalis Tanessen:

You must never knowingly harm an innocent, or allow immediate harm to one through inaction when you know you could reasonably prevent it. This tenet doesn’t force you to take action against possible harm to innocents at an indefinite time in the future, or to sacrifice your life to protect them. You must act with honor, never taking advantage of others, lying, or cheating. You must respect the lawful authority of legitimate leadership wherever you go, and follow its laws. You must be peaceful, choose and perfect an art, lead by example, and see the beauty in all things. You must never destroy art or allow it to be destroyed, unless saving a life or pursuing greater art. You must never refuse to accept surrender. To answer some of your comments: Yes, I am aware of the Hellknight test requirement. But with the Order of the Torrent's presence in the city, it should be manageable. That the Order of the Torrent has no evil members I assume means the majority of them are either LG or LN which works well with Champion. There is also the Order of the Rack in the city but I'd avoid associating with them. Regarding the Hellknight's anti-chaos abilities, I'll keep that in mind and select other options if available. Regarding Barzillai Thrune, my character is probably already leaning towards believing him to be illegitimate and I'm sure as the campaign progresses, he'll be given increasing reasons to feel that way. I will do my best to roleplay following the champion's tenets including the deity specific ones. I have never played a Hellknight before. I think it would be an interesting concept to try out. Question: Can I select Infernal as a bonus language? Is it considered prevalent enough in Kintargo. I'd assume anywhere in Cheliax, it's not that uncommon. If everything looks good, let me know, and I'll create an alias for it. Also, Merry Christmas.
Okay. Here's my first idea. He'd be a LG champion of Shelyn that would eventually take the Hellknight archetype with the Order of the Torrent. I wrote a quick background and can work on stating it out next if it looks okay. Vitalis Tanessen Born the 4th son of the Tanessen noble family, Vitalis’ inheritance and influence is negligible, yet is still expected to uphold the family’s honor and adhere to the family’s interests. Once of age, Vitalis began military training and intended to join the Kintargo Dottari. However, upon Barzillai Thrune seizing power over the Silver City as the new lord-mayor, Vitalis couldn’t in good consciousness serve under a man so evil. To make matters worse, his father, Geoff Tanessen threw in his support for the Thrunes, making poor Vitalis a near outcast amongst the family. While still tolerated, Vitalis and Geoff could no longer see eye-to-eye and Vitalis chose to move out of the Tanessen estate and take up residence at a nearby inn until he figured out his new path in life. Vitalis wishes to continue to pursue a career where he can apply his martial prowess and has always admired the Hellknight Order of the Torrent for their dedication to good and tenet of liberating captives. Despite the Order’s small size, Vitalis believes it would be a good fit for him and intends to apply to become a Hellknight armiger and eventually earn his way up to a full-fledged Hellknight of the Order. He has already sent a letter of interest to Lictor Octavio Sabinus and awaits his reply. In the meantime, Vitalis recently heard of a protest to be held in Aria Park and plans to attend to protest against the government, specifically against the martial law unjustly being forced upon Kintargo’s citizens. Vitalis is a serious, no-nonsense young man. Although as a champion dedicated to Shelyn, he still enjoys art and music in his own way. He regularly attends service at the Songbird Hall and maintains a good relationship with the high priest, Zachrin Vhast. Vitalis is torn between his dedication to his family, his dedication to his church, and his dedication to Kintargo. Amongst the three, he is leaning towards devoting himself utmost of the Silver City as he feels that this will also ultimately serve the best interests of his family and church as well.
I have not played through this adventure path but am familiar with what it is about. I’m fine with it. I am not particularly sensitive about any topic.
Hi.
How many players are we expecting? I’m not set on anything so I can work with the others to cover all the bases or collaborate on similar backgrounds.
I feel like 2E streamlined a lot of the character creation rules so there's really not much to cheat on.
