Hi everyone. In a PF game I'm in I am playing a Monkey Goblin, and I wanted to share my stat block with you and solicit suggestions or ideas for what direction to take this guy in. Starting at level 1.
STR 9
DEX 20
CON 14
INT 14
WIS 10
CHA 7
Originally I was thinking of going with unchained rogue with the vexing dodger archetype. Climb people, make a CMB check to do a dirty trick. Obviously that becomes more viable as he increases in level. The only thing I see as a bump in that road is when people try to get him off, his CMD isn't great by default if they try to grapple or something. I think the idea of this monkey goblin riding in another PC's backpack, popping out in a fight to climb the bad guys and poke them in the eyes before sneak attacking could be fun. But he's squishy. What do you think?
I was also thinking about the goblin racial archetype for Barbarian, but I'm not statted for that. I could move the base 16 dex to Strength, move one of those 14's over to Dex to be an 18. but then I'm left with a 9 in Int, or with the racial penalty, a 7 in Wisdom. It would definitely be something of a contradiction to have a small monkey goblin as this fierce biting barbarian.
I'm really in love with the climbing speed. I'm trying to stay away from spells right now as I feel like it just makes things more complicated than necessary.
Thanks for any thoughts you have to share.
