Sun Zhanglao's page

Born and raised by human parents in Quain, Tien Xia. His parents worshiped Sun Wukong. He loves and respects Sun Wukong and feels the deity watches over him through his animal companion, Wu Kong. But when he came of age, Sun was restless and wanted to see the world. He met some Pathfinders on an assignment with the remnants of the Lantern Lodge and decided to travel to see the Inner Sea. On the voyage and once in the Inner Sea, he encountered followers of Kurgess (The Strong Man) in Andoran. He began to compete in races and arena fights, getting a great thrill out of the challenge. He had been shielded from prejudice in Quain but now that he saw how it operated in the Inner Sea, he felt bad for outcasts. He was also appalled at the practice of slavery in the Inner Sea, so he joined the Liberty’s Edge faction of the Pathfinder Society to see if he could liberate some who lived in bondage.

While anyone who looks closely can spot half-orc features such as slightly pointed ears, high cheekbones and forehead ridges, large jaw and ochre skin-tone, Sun’s predominant first impression is that of a strong Tien Xia monk or laborer. He has a large and intricate tattoo of a dragon that coils around his body and grants him good luck. He wears robes over his armor that are common in Tien Xia as well as a conical straw hat to shade his face. He carries a quarterstaff. Most people are too distracted by the sight of his ape animal companion to notice some of his appearance.

Most are surprised he is half-orc, as he is cultured, articulate, and respectful. He suffers persecution and abuse, when it comes, with forebearance, but inwardly bristles at the unfairness of treating people differently. He enjoys having a good time, drinks with gusto, and loves to spend time with followers of Kurgess, when he can find them, and followers of Cayden Cailean, Desna, and Shelyn.

Half-Orc Brawler Favored Class Option
Add 1/4 to the brawler’s effective level to determine her unarmed strike damage.

Deadly even with nothing in her hands, a brawler eschews using the fighter’s heavy armor and the monk’s mysticism, focusing instead on perfecting many styles of brutal unarmed combat. Versatile, agile, and able to adapt to most enemy attacks, a brawler’s body is a powerful weapon.
Role: Brawlers are maneuverable and well suited for creating flanking situations or dealing with lightly armored enemies, as well as quickly adapting to a rapidly changing battlefield.
Alignment: Any.
Hit Die: d10.
Parent Classes: Fighter and monk.
Starting Wealth: 150 gp
Level BAB Fort Ref Will Damage Special
1st___+1__+2__+2_+0__1d6____Brawler's cunning, martial flexibility, martial training, unarmed strike
Weapon and Armor Proficiency
A brawler is proficient with all simple weapons plus the handaxe, short sword, and weapons from the close fighter weapon group. She is proficient with light armor and shields (except tower shields).
Close: bayonet, brass knuckles, cestus, dan bong, emei piercer, fighting fan, gauntlet, heavy shield, iron brush, katar, klar, light shield, madu, mere club, punching dagger, rope gauntlet, sap, scizore, spiked armor, spiked gauntlet, spiked shield, tekko-kagi, tonfa, unarmed strike, wooden stake, and wushu dart.

Brawler’s Cunning (Ex)
If the brawler’s Intelligence score is less than 13, it counts as 13 for the purpose of meeting the prerequisites of combat feats.

Martial Flexibility (Ex)
A brawler can take a move action to gain the benefit of a combat feat she doesn’t possess. This effect lasts for 1 minute. The brawler must meet all the feat’s prerequisites. She may use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + 1/2 her brawler level (minimum 1).

The brawler can use this ability again before the duration expires in order to replace the previous combat feat with another choice.

If a combat feat has a daily use limitation (such as Stunning Fist), any uses of that combat feat while using this ability count toward that feat’s daily limit.

Martial Training (Ex)
At 1st level, a brawler counts her total brawler levels as both fighter levels and monk levels for the purpose of qualifying for feats. She also counts as both a fighter and a monk for feats and magic items that have different effects based on whether the character has levels in those classes (such as Stunning Fist and a monk’s robe). This ability does not automatically grant feats normally granted to fighters and monks based on class level, namely Stunning Fist.

Unarmed Strike
At 1st level, a brawler gains Improved Unarmed Strike as a bonus feat. A brawler may attack with fists, elbows, knees, and feet. This means that a brawler may make unarmed strikes with her hands full. A brawler applies her full Strength modifier (not half) on damage rolls for all her unarmed strikes.

Usually, a brawler’s unarmed strikes deal lethal damage, but she can choose to deal nonlethal damage instead with no penalty on her attack roll. She has the same choice to deal lethal or nonlethal damage while grappling.

A brawler’s unarmed strike is treated as both a manufactured weapon and a natural weapon for the purpose of spells and effects that modify either manufactured weapons or natural weapons.

A brawler also deals more damage with her unarmed strikes than others, as shown on Table: Brawler. The unarmed damage values listed on that table are for Medium brawlers.

The wild child works with his sworn animal friend to conquer the challenges that lay before them. This kinship could come from being lost in the wilderness and raised by animals or growing up with an exotic pet.

Class Skills: A wild child gains Heal as a class skill.

Animal Companion (Ex)
At 1st level, a wild child forms a bond with a loyal companion that accompanies the wild child on his adventures. A wild child can begin play with any of the animals available to a druid. The wild child uses his brawler level as his effective druid level for determining the abilities of his animal companion.
This ability replaces the bonus combat feats gained at 2nd, 8th, 14th, and 20th levels.

Ape
Starting Statistics
Size Medium; Speed 30 ft., climb 30 ft.; AC +1 natural armor; Attack bite (1d4), 2 claws (1d4); Ability Scores Str 13, Dex 17, Con 10, Int 2, Wis 12, Cha 7; Special Qualities low-light vision, scent.
4th-Level Advancement
Size Large; AC +2 natural armor; Attack bite (1d6), 2 claws (1d6); Ability Scores Str +8, Dex –2, Con +4.

Hunter’s Tricks
At 5th level, a wild child can expend a use of martial flexibility to use a trick from the ranger skirmisher archetype. Each time he activates this ability, the wild child can use a different hunter trick. He cannot choose any tricks that rely on ranged attacks. Activating this ability is not an action, but using the trick might require the wild child to use an action of a different type.
This ability replaces close weapon mastery.

Maneuver Training (Ex)
Whenever the wild child chooses a new maneuver for this ability, his animal companion also learns a trick to make use of this combat maneuver. For example, if the wild child chooses maneuver training (dirty trick), his animal companion also learns a trick that allows it to use the dirty trick combat maneuver. He cannot choose any tricks that rely on ranged attacks. This bonus trick doesn’t count against the animal companion’s total tricks known and does not take any time or checks to train. Should the wild child gain a new animal companion (such as if the previous one dies), this new animal companion begins with the same number of bonus tricks.
This ability alters maneuver training.

Wild Tricks (Ex)
The wild child has learned a number of tricks to aid his allies and his animal companion, as well as to hinder his opponents.

Link (Ex)
A Wild Child can handle her animal companion as a free action, or push it as a move action, even if she doesn’t have any ranks in the Handle Animal skill. The druid gains a +4 circumstance bonus on all wild empathy checks and Handle Animal checks made regarding an animal companion.

At 5th level and every 6 levels thereafter, the wild child learns one hunter’s trick. He cannot choose any tricks that rely on ranged attacks. The wild child can use these tricks a number of times per day equal to 1/2 his brawler level + his Constitution modifier. This ability otherwise follows the rules of the hunter’s tricks ability, including all action costs.

This ability replaces the bonus combat feats gained at 5th, 11th, and 17th levels.

Your allies help you avoid being surprised.

Prerequisite(s): No levels in a class that has the panache class feature.
Source: Advanced Class Guide
Benefit: You gain a small amount of panache and the ability to perform a single 1st-level swashbuckler deed.
Choose a 1st-level deed from the swashbuckler’s deeds class feature (you can’t select opportune parry and riposte). Once chosen, this deed can’t be changed.
At the start of each day, you gain 1 panache point. Throughout the day, you can gain a number of panache points up to a maximum of your Charisma modifier (minimum 1). You can regain panache points as the swashbuckler’s panache class feature. You can spend these panache points to perform the 1st-level deed you chose upon taking this feat as well as any other deeds you have gained through feats or magic items.
Derring-Do (Ex): At 1st level, a swashbuckler can spend 1 panache point when she makes an Acrobatics, Climb, Escape Artist, Fly, Ride, or Swim check to roll 1d6 and add the result to the check. She can do this after she makes the check but before the result is revealed. If the result of the d6 roll is a natural 6, she rolls another 1d6 and adds it to the check. She can continue to do this as long as she rolls natural 6s, up to a number of times equal to her Dexterity modifier (minimum 1).
Dodging Panache (Ex): At 1st level, when an opponent attempts a melee attack against the swashbuckler, the swashbuckler can as an immediate action spend 1 panache point to move 5 feet; doing so grants the swashbuckler a dodge bonus to AC equal to her Charisma modifier (minimum 0) against the triggering attack. This movement doesn’t negate the attack, which is still resolved as if the swashbuckler had not moved from the original square. This movement is not a 5-foot step; it provokes attacks of opportunity from creatures other than the one who triggered this deed. The swashbuckler can only perform this deed while wearing light or no armor, and while carrying no heavier than a light load.

Equipment Trick (Combat)
You understand how to use equipment in combat.
Prerequisite(s): Base attack bonus +1.
Source: Dirty Tactics Toolkit
Choose a piece of equipment, such as anvil, boots, a cloak, rope, a shield, a heavy blade scabbard, a sunrod, or wondrous item.
Benefit(s): You can use any equipment trick relating to the chosen item as long as you meet the trick’s prerequisites. If the item would normally be considered an improvised weapon, you can treat it as either a normal weapon or an improvised weapon, depending on which is more beneficial for you.
Boot Tricks
In addition to the feat or skill prerequisites for each of these tricks, you must have the Equipment Trick (boots) feat. A pair of boots refers to any set of footwear that has hard soles. These equipment tricks can be used with either magic or mundane boots.
Cleat Stomp (Improved Unarmed Strike) When you make a successful unarmed strike against an opponent while wearing a pair of boots with cleats, the target takes 1 point of bleed damage. The bleed damage can be stopped by a successful DC 15 Heal skill check or by magical healing. The effects of this trick stack with other sources of bleed damage but not with other bleed damage dealt by this trick.
Rope Tricks

In addition to the feat, skill, or other requirement listed for each of these tricks, you must have the Equipment Trick (rope) feat to use rope tricks. Rope tricks can be performed with hemp rope or silk rope, or with similar rope-like items at the GM’s discretion.
Lash (Weapon Proficiency [whip]): You can use a length of rope as a whip at no penalty. The piece of rope that is used as a whip must be 10 feet long—length in excess of this must remain coiled or otherwise unused at your feet or side.
Quick Release (no additional prerequisites): You can secure a rope such that you can loose it from either end by making a quick series of tugs (a move action) at any point along the rope’s length.

River Raider (Combat)
You are skilled at creeping up on watercraft without being noticed, then swiftly leaping over the side and into combat.

Benefit(s) You gain a +2 bonus on Swim and Stealth checks while swimming in calm or rough water. In addition, if you’re able to act in a surprise round and start it in water, you can take both a move and a standard action. You still can’t take a full-round action during the surprise round.
Normal You can take only a move or a standard action during a surprise round in which you can act.
