Right now I'm playing a homebrew adventure called myth and legend of Azlant: first era of the golden age. And is basically a intro of our character before going to war with the serpent folks

No one expects…the kobold inquisition.

In all seriousness though, who would expect a staunchly religious inquisitor of Abadar, that is a kobold?

More rare is to see a paladin kobold of iomedae


Well my group and I fight the tarrasque only 2 time 1 at lvl 18 the other at lvl 21. It's mostly impossible to kill it you can only force him to go slumber and you will need at least 3 minor artifact weapon +6 to bypass his damage reduction

How does this look, is it to much, to little, to complicated?

Pack Tactics
When Jezelda receives a flanking bonus from a werewolf, wolf, or worg, she gains a +5 instead of the usual bonus, and gains as well as grants the benefits of the Teamwork feats Coordinated Capture, Coordinated Charge, and Coordinated Distraction.

Much better I see this:

Pack aura
All werewolf, wolf and worg that are at least 40 feet of her gain outflank and any teamwork that jezelda posese


I don't think aurora borealis can be changed by control weather because is not a weather effect but a affect from the sun striking with the magnetic field of the planet


I just don't understand how can you lose the ability to cast some spell and replace it with other one, so for instead I'm a sorcerer the spell is not suppressed but forgotten, and if I'm a wizard the spell are erase from my spell book
As for the price I will suggest to use the staff model to calculate the price and divide the results by 6 since you will get 1 of the 6 spell list each day or none if you get tail


I don't think that the souls are based in the intelligence but in the emotion's
And in the free will to impart decision

They don't need a morality because that is something that come with the religion they practice

You don't need to gain classes to qualify for the soul, a class is like a profession whit benefits (and dragons don't want to get classes because most of them are trying to survive the first 50 year to reach adulthood and most of them don't posese the change shape ability so the can get a tutor of that class)


For me I see that the daily use of spell it's a limit for spell casters in comparison to other classes like fighters or rogue, if there is a way for spell casters to restore some of they spell per day it will be more fun

I'm really surprised we never got a simple option to make a weapon count as a monk weapon. It might would need some sort of limitations, but making a longsword count as a monk weapon for the cost of a feat seems pretty fair. And it's not like there aren't monks that use various types of non-monk weapon in real life and popular fiction.
Blackpowder monks!

Gun fu!

I thought on it some and I think it'd be safer as a feat chain. Each feat lets you use a proficiency of weapons as monk weapons: simple->martial->exotic.

The movie equilibrium it's a good representation of the gun fu


I think is based in the grammar of the language and in the slang that you use in you race for example if the Chaldean and the andorans use the same grammar and slang or there are some changes (like the British and American have both English but some grammar and slang change significant)


Don't pathfinder tried to change the spell Sistem by using the spell words Sistem I think that Sistem work except that it still need some more work
As for an idea of mine I have this system I tried to create is based in the epic handbook of dnd3.5 rather than using spell slots and other stuff to calculate the DC/spell lvl/etc... You use your spellcraft skill to manifest such spell for example magic missile you need 12 in the spell craft check (10 of base lvl 0 + 2 for being a lvl 1 spell for every 4 you put in the DC you increase the effect of the spell (16 for 2 missile, 20 for 3 missile and so on)


She thinks the all other lycanthropy (except for werewolf) are a blasphemy to the curse so she hate that

As for the teamwork are feat that works only if other creature posese that feat like outflank but the inquisitor and the hunter have ability to share or to act as if other creature posese that feat
Remember that wolf like to hunt in groups rather than alone


Ok first all nesseat demon and demon lord have at least 5 profane bonus to armor for every 10 point of hd after 20

As for 1 of her ability I could put to her that she gain +8 racial bonus to attack and damage to all non werewolf since she hate all non werewolf (+2 for every 10 hd like noticula that have 4d6 sneak attack)
She could also have a the teamwork ability of the inquisitor/hunter as long she is fighting with werewolf


Rule -1 player have more power than the gm, Because without them there is no game to play. So before the gm kill the party because he can do it think before you act you may lose not only the adventure but also the position of gm a game with the same group or even lose your friend
This doesn't mean that you can't kill them


Is this some harry potter theme, fighting with wands


I suggest this progression
Lvl 1 point blank shot
Lvl 3 precise shot
Lvl 5 Craft wand
Lvl 7 empower spell
Lvl 9 reach spell
Lvl 11 spell penetration
Lvl 13 greater spell penetration
Lvl 15 craft staff
Lvl 17 intensify spell
Lvl 19 quicken spell

Also if you add at least 1 lvl in rogue to gain the sneak attack and take the feat Accomplished Sneak Attacker instead of craft wand can go with the arcane trickster prestige class that is the best prestige class for blaster type


Yeap
The spell that request a ranged touch attack is still considered an attack so this penalty apply in combat


I will say that the difference between a demigod and a god is that a demigod help and is always in the problem of her doctrine as for a god he never interfere he only give you spell, some encrypted message and sometimes a divine intervention (mostly 1 of 1.000.000)


Like the title says I want to know if the infusion of the blood kinetic work against a vampire
Thank you very much


The blood kinetic give you the immortality at level 20


I will suggest not to give up on enchantment school most of they spell are very helpful in/out combat and can turn the table in a few rounds like holding a mass group of creature, dominating a stronger, send suggestions to 1 or more to run or drop they weapons.
If you tell me what to give up I will go with necromancer and transmutation/evocation


There is a problem in your build if the target is in combat with an ally you will receive a -4 to the attack you need point blank shot and precise shot to not gain this penalty


For whoever you want to start

So I guess that's all for the Hunter, other than writing the sheet down. The remaining siblings that need builds are the witch, skald, rogue, shaman, and sorcerer.

What archetype?


I suggest reincarnated since it's boost +2 vs fear and death spell (very good for lower level), focused discipline+2 vs compulsion and charms (mor chances to not go against your party of be stuck by a hold person), draconic destiny is very useful for you it's give you a +2 to become stable and increase your total constitution +2 to die (this mean that your constitution is treated as 14 instead of 12 for the propose to die)


When is the force it depends in the caster will example mage armor you could make invisible or look like a translucent armor


The gm is creating a flaw to simulate the dark vision and the almost blindness of Reddick now the question is the player will go with the slayer but he said to us if he have 1 lvl of barbarian since he showed a lot in the movie his rage


Jezelda the demon lord of lycanthropy take the moon

As for general DMing, I usually advise starting with a short adventure rather than a long campaign -- less of a burden on the DM and if something happens that really ruins it you're not stuck with the problem for a huge commitment. I'd especially advise this in PbP since it takes so much longer. Maybe pick out, for example, just "Burnt Offerings" and edit it so that it can be a full adventure. 'Skinsaw' works even better as a stand-alone adventure.
I do know I have Gallows of Madness but that's part of a 3 part module and I don't have the other two...should I just start off with that? if not I can just do Burnt Offerings as a start. I could make a short one shot homebrew but I don't quite have the homebrew making skills yet.

Then go fo rise of the rune lords but divide the game in part each time they finish a scene where they lvl 1-3 lvl is the end of that part of the campaign

For tips I suggest that you read the adventure 2-3 time before this will help you an many form for example: letting your narrative more faster, divide the story in part and other. After you read the adventure check the any alternative rule you want to use. Create some house rules and present them to your group 2 week before the start of the game in this way they will know what rule you accept and what to avoid. For ability/skill check only respond to 1 question, if that person fail it can't be repeated until he lvl up if other try to make the same question (or similar question but whit other words) negate such question or respond they they don't know. Don't be so attached to the rules be a little flexible. Remember that the gm is also a player (but whit more power) when facing monster/encounter try to makes some flaws in your strategy remember that the CR it's not only for the PC it's also for the players they must find the way to resolve the problem in the fight (is like playing chess except it will be the players vs the gm only that you will give them some handicap time to time). if they have questions about something you just suggest to respond at the end of the campaign


A see the aliment a the 2 sides of the coins, for example during the crusades in Jerusalem in the middle era who was right in think the Muslim or the Christian in they thinking the May said that what they are doing it the right way and the adversary is doing the evil. The same go during the Carl Magnus era during his rein he destroy the pagans religion because it's a blasphemy to they believe so he thinks he was doing good but his method to eradicate the cults is in a way to evil

Now for the positive and negative energy is something that it's related to the nature of the person but in physics said that energy it's not destroyed but it's transform so using this concept if you are good you can use the positive energy if you're evil you can use negative, but if you are neutral you must choose which one you want (in this part I have the issue since if we use the physics concept the neutral could be the aliment that can transform the energy from one to another and vice versa). Now another point is that healing and harm spell any cleric can use them but they are from my point of view different energy (healing is positive and harm is negative) so how can a good cleric with the positive energy can cast harm spell?


I wander do your gm give you to fight all the monsters that are from the monster manual and which one you still don't fight

For my group the only creature that we still don't fight is the tarraske and the solar angel


1 of my friend in the coming campaign want to create a character based in Reddick but we all don't know how to maked I say he is a slayer by strength whit level in assassin's but other said he is a thug rogue whit assassin's, and the gm believe he is a fighter or a rogue dagger master whit assassin's

Can I ask you people what is your opinion in this matter
Tanks you.


I suggest skill focus in perception since animals companion have more skill points in this skill and can help you to do the night watch while you are sleeping (since plants don't sleep) another feat I suggest is lighting reflex (she is a plant so AOE fire spell do more damage if they don't pass the save), run feat also helps a lot specially in difficult terrain where the speed is reduced

I think the thing is - you don't have a "build". Which is fine! But this isn't 5e, there's more feats than anyone can reasonably want. So you want to defend yourself and get information. That could be anything from dodge to skill focus: sense motive. Do you plan to continue taking psychic levels, and all 3 brawler are more flavor and versatility? Improved grapple is nice for fighting, as is combat casting.

The human specific feats could be very flavorful as an Azlanti, even if weird iris one.
Scroll down to racial feats and get bonuses vs fear which mean you can't cast as a psychic: https://www.d20pfsrd.com/races/core-races/human/

As for what class I will advance I try to go fo what I use in game if there more martial or spell I advance that, since I know my gm he most likely going for the roleplay and investigation, before traps, quiz and fighting, I thinking lvl my brawler first since it give me more skill points (maybe 3 or 4 lvl) after that if I need to focus in the other class or pick a prestige class


At first I was thinking in taking improve initiative and skill focus knowledge social for 2 reason: the first it's since I always have to defend myself I reacted faster to the problem and the second it's since I grew up in the slump I have a knowledge of the principal group that I can take over and to who to avoid, as for the third feat don know what to go I was thinking to go in the spring attack build since brawler go first to the weakest opponent, but doing a little damage while you move or take great fortitude since most of the food I get to survive are spoiled. Don't get me wrong but like I said the gm give more values in build based in background, so I'm trying to get something that explains how I have the feat, I know what you mean by taking iron will that is 1 of my primary feat, it could explain how I endure my mental health to survive the hell of my past


Yea but if you read the background I'm a bastard raised in the slum so it's this kind of environment is hard to be a lawful character if the laws are against you because or the color of your eyes


Well you could say it's newbies but not for me, is the grandson of the gm who will join as lvl 1, we just remake our main character after 23 years but in reality we start in 2e but was a mix of multiple world and feats so to not overpass and be a guide to him (and sometimes act like a guardian) we decide to restart our main ( who are now lvl 54) but like I said is a mix of multiple world ( alquadim, forgotten realms, ravenloft, grayhawk) so we are going to restart in only 1 world. As for your suggestions I don't want to get the monk because the aliment restrictions, I'm true neutral by nature and is better for me to roleplay like this, as like I said at first I try to be like my first character who was a monk/psychic warrior but whit out the limitations of being lawful


Any way the start of the game will be in the same way that we start our first game (Chinese new year, year of the dragon so I have 2 month to prepare)
There is no rush to give the suggestions since it start in that day, but before that we will start the background history of each of us the primary party so we can roleplay and show or background to the gm ( this is more like a ritual costume in our part to good luck) and for the gm to get a guess in what kind of background history game will get each of us in the future


Is nothing like that, I'm more in rol play that in combat, you ask me for my classes well it's simple I choose brawler because my background I'm bastard who grow in the slump since I have unusual Iris (instead of purple are a mix of colors) I was always get bullied by other person (this is how a lvl in brawler class) as for the psychic is a secondary effects of my background it's manifest when I reached my adolescent age in 1 of my fighting. I use this 2 classes to defend myself and to get information, bot for the rest I try to be the dealer, diplomatic and charismatic of the group

Note: we have a bard but he is more metal emo character

I accepting any suggestions in build but diplomacy, knowledge social and appraisal most be my 3 main skill in the character (since my gm values more roleplay from background over hack and slash)


No it's saying that you will. Received the fatigue and the exhausted condition if you fail the concentration check every time you cast a spell besides the 1 he give you (in other words your normal limit of spell per day) when used in dead magic zone. Also long you pass this check for every spell you act normally as you are not in a dead magic zone

In addition to that the item don't say that it will stop it function if you are inmunes to such effects so if you got an item or ability that prevents you from such effects you don't have to worries about doing the concentration check


I'm a little confused here you what a spellcaster hunter, a marksmanship hunter or a pet hunter because is hard for me to say what you like for this character


Why don't instead of hunter you go for something more rare, like the brawler, you gain martial flexibility which gives you a lot of strategy to each battle, if you want a animals companion take the nature soul and animal ally and you will have the animal like a Ranger, and focus from there in marksmanship, the first rol for everything in range attack is having a good attack and since brawler are fast progression it will work nicely


Yea but if we go for the rules if you change your touch spell to ranged touch spell you will be limited by the base attack of the caster and the spell will be lost by the end of your turn leaving yo to create only 1-2 undead (3 whit Haste)


Okay let's me tell you what happens here my gm is going to restart our 26 year of rol (Yea we play epic) but we are going to start at lvl 5 again because he wants to introduce his grandchild to the game, and since we already finished all the adventure in the present he decided to start in the era of legends

My background is an orphan Azlant whit unusual eyes (since he allowed for us to use our homebrew race in this campaign) we are going to start at lvl 5 (except for the new members who is going to start at lvl 1) I'm going to be like my previous character but a little different I was a monk/psychic warrior now I'm going to restart as a brawler 3/psychic 2, in my background I prefer the use of trade and communication rater than fighting, so I have the problem what is the best feat can you recommend me to use in this build my stat are str15, dex16, con13, int17, Wis 14, cha16

Wait, 6 squares? Shouldn't it be 8? Two on the horizontal, two on the vertical, and 4 on the diagonals.

Well if you use hexagonal space it will be only 6

But you are right it was 8 not 6 my bad calculation

Now normally animate dead is limited to 6 bodies as per touch spells, however reach Metamagic changes the range, so I am wondering can you then just raise anything within range up to your HD limit??

Ok I see what you try to say since animate dead is a touch spell and your reach is 5ft square you can only touch the 6 square that surrounds you. The metamagic feat reach increase this area of effects in my opinion and let you increase the number of animate in 1 spell but it can't increase the maximum number of the spell to control

The spell have the maximum of 6 but that was before the reach spell metamagic was create so is up of consideration of the gm to allow this change of the spell


Yea but I read this article that say:
"Titan, in Greek mythology, any of the children of Uranus (Heaven) and Gaea (Earth) and their descendants. According to Hesiod’s Theogony, there were 12 original Titans: the brothers Oceanus, Coeus, Crius, Hyperion, Iapetus, and Cronus and the sisters Thea, Rhea, Themis, Mnemosyne, Phoebe, and Tethys. At the instigation of Gaea the Titans rebelled against their father, who had shut them up in the underworld (Tartarus). Under the leadership of Cronus they deposed Uranus and set up Cronus as their ruler. But one of Cronus’ sons, Zeus, rebelled against his father, and a struggle then ensued between them in which most of the Titans sided with Cronus. Zeus and his brothers and sisters finally defeated the Titans after 10 years of fierce battles (the Titanomachia). The Titans were then hurled down by Zeus and imprisoned in a cavity beneath Tartarus."

All Zeus brother and sisters fight against, but not all the titans since Rhea save Zeus to be eaten and she is a titan to.
So the word god for Zeus and the others is only used for the mortals but they are still sons and daughters of titans.
As for what you said is incompatible lore I already said that is not a fact between golarion history and Greek mythology, i just ask in your perspective who is more powerful that all


Why don't pass instead of a spell changed to a ritual it will fit more easy to lower level


I know that this is the world that paizo create but some of the mechanic are changed to fit in the game so no matter what gods are the maximum power in the game, but if we look to the history is the titans who create the gods like Cronos and Rhea who give birth to Zeus, Poseidon, hades, Demeter, hestia and Hera; so in your opinion is the tita be less or more powerful than the God's?
As for my opinion I say yes because they are born from a superior force of chaos (like Gaia who create Uranus to love and their children where the titans)

Immediately? - Probably nothing you weren't expecting.

Only four deities have passed the test. Aroden and Norgorber likely had fully developed plans in place for what they would do after passing the test. Iomedae didn't immediately become a god after passing - she had a spark of divinity and became Aroden's herald. (Depending on which source you are reading that might have actually been her entire goal in taking the test.) She only became a full god when taking over after Aroden died.

Cayden is the only one who did it "accidentally" - just as you suggested he was drunk and did it on a bet. And afterwards he basically wandered back to the bar and said "Huh. I'm a god now. Another round."

All of the Ascended withdrew from affairs on the material plane after ascension. Aroden would be personally present the most often but his interventions grew rarer and rarer. Iomedae as a herald was present a lot but not after full godhood. Cayden Cailean probably still visits occasionally for a drink and a (non-lethal) bar fight. Norgorber might be flitting around all the time but just keeping very quiet about it. Aroden was the first to ascend and kinda got a pass from the other gods for a while as they tried to figure out exactly what this "Ascension" thing meant. I believe it's stated somewhere that he just got less interested over time. No "direct sit-down" from the gods explaining the balance of powers for the others. Iomedae got on-the-job training, Norgorber has his own reasons to keep a low profile, and Cayden's gig is mostly individual freedom, not widescale revolts.

As for the realms, it's up to you to establish one. It may not necessarily be in the same plane that corresponds to your alignment. It's more a function of your interests, assuming the other inhabitants of the plane will tolerate you. Norgorber's realm of Duskfathom is in Axis (under the city proper).

Aroden never do the test he was a mythic character by the time Atlanta fall. As for Cayden I think he only have 1 problem that he got by becoming a god and that is that he can't never be drunk ever again
