If I roll a Paladin what is their definition of lawful good? Lawful Good can be pretty broad and don't want the GM to take your powers away because he thinks it doesn't fit your alignment. I've had a similar issue with another character with a very questionable your character is evil so you can't use him anymore sorta thing. Save me the time of the debate and waste of Chronicle sheets, that's potentially tons of time. :D


I'm not sure if you can request something be looked at in this manner but just in case you can I'm just putting this out there.

The martial artist monk archetype loses the ki pool class feature, but still gains abundant step at lvl 12. Thus it has a class feature it can't make use of unless it gains a ki pool from another class. This ability should probably be replaced with something that doesn't require a ki pool.


I'm having trouble figuring out how flurry of blows works with multiclassing. Say I am a fourth level monk and a third level fighter, I'd have 6/1 bab, and my flurry is +2/+2. If I were to say perform a flurry what would I do?


Their profiency options are pretty nuts and open up a lot of different options for weapons, what class would benefit most from these proficiencies while also taking into account their racial stats?


I mainly would like to see what was added to the Kiitsune, Nagaji and wayang races and maybe the new archetypes? I know at least one has archetypes. I'd like to see if I wanna download them.


Now I know the alignment is LAWful, but I seem to remember reading something that also described lawful as simply having a code of conduct you adhere to rather than just doing whatever ya feel like. I'm thinking of making a monk and frankly I feel there are a lot of misconceptions about the law/chaotic axis and was kind of wanting to clear that up and maybe ease my wariness of the lawful alignment.


So I figured I'd be able to scout around online for what content is out there, and yes I can, but I'm having trouble figuring out what books these things are in so I can check if they are PFS legal so I can know if there are at least a few things in a book that I like and are PFS legal before I like the book. Another problem is that the advanced resources tells you what is legal in a way that assumes you already bought the book, for example, when it tells you all the stuff on pages this through this are legal. Is there a source somewhere where I can look up say an archetype or spell or whatever by name and figure out what book it is in? Maybe even get the page number in case it's mentioned in that fashion.


First off, the tengu trait sword trained, while some weapons are specifically stated I just wanted to double check if a few that I believe are implied are actually included. The two weapons I'm wanting to double check are the dueling sword and sword breaker.

Secondly, I know in most cases if someone with twf wanted to sunder it would be assumed they would use their main hand, but what if my off hand weapon specifically has a bonus to this maneuver? For example dueling sword in main hand and a sword breaker in my off hand.


First off, this will obviously not be an optimized character so much as I'm going for a conceptual idea. I will be listing what I want this character to be capable of in three lists, need, want and "would be nice".

Needs:
-able to fight with a mix of sword swings and unarmed strikes. (This is both the main thing I want him to be capable of, and the most difficult to make practical IMO)
-decent number of skills (enough to cover physical skills including stealth and a decent intimidate, Sense motive and perception)
-high dex (pretty straight forward)
- want to stick to either human or half elf for race choice
- at the most wear light armor

Wants:
-A functional animal companion (despite being a want this is a huge one and would really add to what I'm going for, not sure how viable it would be to keep him functional tho. Side note I will be choosing a wolf if that helps any)
- very small amount of sneak attack (not a real biggie, in fact it could easily be dropped to the "would be nice section" would totally be fine without it but it would fit nicely)
-decent wisdom (if I could get this to have some combat oriented benefit that would be great, but while I don't want this character to be terribly smart, the sort of intuitiveness along with straight up willpower really fits the character)

Would be nice:
- ability to go unarmored (seeing as monk could have some use in this idea I'm throwing it out there that it'd be cool. Side note I do not want to be tied to deity so I'd like to avoid sacred fist if possible BUT if not then I'll take it)
- very remedial magic (I'm talking virtually no blasting spells here, small buffs and maybe a very small amount of elemental stuff that adds to my melee akin to flaming weapon)

Now I know this is a lot of weird and conflicting ideas but I've been wanting to make a character along these lines for a very long time but I'm clueless as to how to make any pieces of this work together. To anyone who offers some help thank you sooo much.

Also in case anyone knows where this idea is coming from, I am aiming to make a character who resembles Yuri Lowell from tales of vesperia, the animal companion being his trusty "dog" Repede. If only you could train animal companions to use daggers lol.


I'm sure there are other situations this could come up but I am mainly looking at this in terms of two handing a weapon means I don't have a free hand to cast spells. So what kind of action is it to simply remove one of my hands so that I can cast? Would it be possible to go back to gripping my weapon in two hands after I cast?


First off I am looking for a PFS ruling here.

Alright so a half elf counts as both a human and an elf yes? So can a half elf take elf or human racial archetypes?

Next, I understand that most weapons that fall under the jurisdiction of weapon finesse either gain no effect from being wielded in two hands (light weapons) or cannot be wielded two handed (rapier), but what about the elven curve blade or dueling sword? Can these weapons benefit from both weapon finesse and being wielded in two hands at the same time?

Thx in advance. :)
