<p>I will check settings, but these should both be covered by gift certificates/store credit.</p>
<p>Absolutely they can be combined.</p>
<p>I went over to account settings and re-entered credit card information and delivery address, though they did not change.
<br />
Subscriptions seem to be set to credit card, but I want to use store credit/gift certificates first.</p>
<p>Is this enough or do I need to do anything else?</p>
<p>thanks,</p>

<p>Tattoo, Reservoir
<br />
Aura moderate transmutation; CL 7th Slot none; Price 10,000 gp</p>
<p>DESCRIPTION</p>
<p>Once per day as a standard action, the bearer can transfer into the tattoo an ongoing single-target spell (of up to 3rd level). The spell must be one the bearer cast on itself. While stored in the tattoo, the spell’s effects are suppressed, and the spell’s duration is similarly suspended. As a standard action, the bearer can bring the spell back into effect on itself. Spells stored in reservoir tattoos are lost when the bearer next prepares spells.</p>
<p>CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS </p>
<p>Inscribe Magical Tattoo; Cost 5,000 gp</p>
<p>As your Revelation uses a spell to explain what happens when you shift, you could make the argument to your GM that the tattoo would store it, but it likely wouldn't pass in Pathfinder Society.</p>
<p>It would only work once a day per tattoo and only for spell effects up to 3rd level, though you could work with your GM to create and item/tattoo based on this to work with your Revelation.</p>
<p>In regards to your weapon, the rules for Polymorph spells says:</p>
<p><b>If your new form does not cause your equipment to meld into your form, the equipment resizes to match your new size.</b></p>
<p>Whether your sword would meld into your elemental form is also a discussion you need to have with your GM.

Neither the granted ability nor any of the spells require Alchemy and work just fine with your created potions or any potion.
<br />
Touch injection of a poison or potion with a immediate onset should have several useful options.
<br />
Extend or empower on a potion or elixir can always be useful, even at the cost of a spell.
<br />
And delayed effect for a potion as immediate effect seems powerful.</p>
<p>This domain seems to work just fine without any focus on Alchemy, though obviously having the skill would be thematic.</p>
<p>And thank you for this guide, this domains are something I had missed and I like several of them very much.</p>In regards to the Alchemy Domain, two things.
One is that the Domain doesn't show up on the sidebar, instead it is under Acolyte of Apocrypha.

You take an energy blast (targeting touch AC) and can use it infinitely.
<br />
Water gives a defense of either +4 AC or +2 shield AC.
<br />
Other elements give DR, hit points, natural armor, or something else.
<br />
Sure it's only a d6, but he'll always have a fallback when he's out of spells.

You only lose 1 caster level and don't need to use any feats.

<p>By the time 1d6 is completely irrelevant, he will have enough spells he'll never worry about using his blast again.</p>
<p>Really though, pearls of power, wands, or even a Int boosting item to give him a couple of more spells will work out better in the long run.</p>

<br />
<b>“It weren’t m’ boy’s fault. When t’ moon takes ya fer t’ furst time, ya cain’t be held accou’table fer a ded chicken or ten. It ain’t ri’t, I tell ya.”</b>, yelled the slight red-haired man standing in front of the school, double-barrel held tightly in both hands.
<br />
<b>“Yes, sir, I agree. The problem has been dealt with. There will be no more trouble from the Purdue’s. But you cannot continue to hold the teacher and the classroom hostage to protect your son. This is over.”</b>
<br />
The man suddenly turned, eyes sweeping the sky, as a brown and silver hawk (?) or something like it plunges from the sky. The silver rings on his hand flashed as he raised his arm and the bird settled on it. He unrolled the message from around its leg, stroking its feathers briefly before sending it towards the sky.
<br />
He read the thin strip quickly. <b>“That’s it we’re done.”</b>
<br />
Taking the glasses off first, he walks to the trunk. From it he takes a bag, opening it before he begins to remove the suit. He folds the dark garments carefully and pulls another outfit from the bag. He dons the brown leather (?) vest and pants, showing no modesty as he strips and dresses.
<br />
<b>“Reynard, you’re going to put the gun away and take your kid home now. There are no charges from the other night’s misadventure. I’ve got no more time for this garbage. You’ve been no trouble for anyone for years and I’m sure your boy won’t be either.”</b> He looks at him sharply, <b>“This. Never. Happened.”</b>
<br />
He writes a quick note and sticks it in the door pocket before gently closing the door. His hand brushes the car much like he stroked the hawk.
<br />
<b>“I’ll miss you, buddy. Take my resignation back to the gang. I’ve been called home. If I’m ever around here again, I’ll drop by.”</b>
<br />
As the car turns and drives away, James draws a deck of cards from his vest. Focusing on one, he concentrates, begins to fade, and finally disappears, his afterimage a fading rainbow flash.
<br />

Coaxing spell (to affect vermin)

<p>As for spells or feats that cover your weaknesses, that's rather a broader question.

I'd search the whole list of Necro spells (since you already have the feats) at Nethys and see what comes up.
<br />
Also, straight up metamagic for bouncing spell or persistant might help.
<br />
Taking a damaging spell and putting merciful spell and sickening spell on it might be in your theme.</p>
<p>edit: Would the augment summoning feat affect swarms? Swarms usually do auto damage so would the feat effect help?

<br />
Not so much as how they work but more of checking if I understand how they are priced.</p>
<p>A construct is sort of building a power (Ghostwheel) or an enhancement to a power (spikard).</p>
<p>So the first step is concept and having the power that would be incorporated into the construct.</p>
<p>No extra cost.</p>
<p>Step 2 is to define the Shadow it is located in and find the cost of that Shadow as a personal Shadow.</p>
<p>Apply a multiplier for more than one Shadow.</p>
<p>Step 3: Define access, whether by artifact, manifestation, or personification and apply a connection multiplier based on that.</p>
<p>The fourth and final step is to determine the Psyche of the construct (and thus it’s beginning level of sapience- later it can possibly improve on its own, even to becoming independent.).</p>
<p>Most important is to understand that points don’t create the construct, GM permission does, at each step of the way.</p>
<p>Ghost wheel was based on Pattern and Trump and could generate its own Trumps pretty much at will and send a manifestation and power through them almost without limit.</p>
<p>A spikard gives access to countless sources of sorcerous power throughout Shadow and can provide formulations of spells as needed, without spending the time to formulate and hang the spell before use.</p>
<p>An example given of a player built construct was a Trump Observatory.</p>
<p>Presumably based in a single Shadow and based on Trump, this construct would give the ability to look into other Shadows like a telescope looks at distant stars.</p>
<p>Cost: (the Shadow = 1 for personal Shadow + 4 for Guarded = 5) x (1 shadow) x (2 shadow conduit- likely a Trump access) x (1 no Psyche) = 10 points.</p>
<p>Sound correct?</p>
<p>Also note that more than one player can contribute points towards a Construct and that, unlike an Artifact, buying a Construct does not guarantee continued possession- it can be taken away.</p>
<p>(Another thing to remember is a standard reminder that GM's can create Constructs, too. Abuse of your power from a construct can result in abuse of you by a GM controled construct.)</p>I have a question about constructs,

<p>-stop quickly beside the cops/goons and yell out 'Where's the nearest doughnut shop", then bray with laughter before peeling out</p>
<p>-pull to a stop 40 or 50 feet behind/in front of cops/goons; driver gets out swearing, tosses passenger out of the truck, yells "I told you the next time you spilled coffee in my truck, I'd throw you out."; gets back in truck while passenger gets up before walking into the woods</p>
<p>-pull up beside the black SUVs and ask to take a selfie next to 'a real Homeland Security agent'</p>

<p>Towards the end of 2nd Ed., I had a character named Bili Proudfoot.
<br />
He was a fighter/thief, built with kits to approximate a ranger.</p>
<p>His story ran that he was the last survivor of a family of traveling bards/merchants/tinkers who were murdered by brigands.
<br />
He escaped and eventually poisoned the thiefs' stew.</p>
<p>He joined an existing group as a depressed, shaven-headed killer.
<br />
They became his new family, cheering him up, though he kept the shaved head (and feet) to remember his family.</p>
<p>I don't remember if he was any use in combat, but he never met a magic item he didn't like.
<br />
His favorites were the amulet that let you talk to horses, troll coins (instant troll, just add water) (uncontrolled of course), and a magic dagger that turned anything you killed into a giant frog, under your control.
<br />
One custom saddle later, he had a mount.
<br />
He went through several frogs, having to leave some in dungeons they couldn't get out of and he still feels a little guilty about the frogs he sold to the followers of Wastri the Hopping Prophet (god of human supremacy and amphibians), but he needed the money to buy the theatre he lived in (while training between adventures) in Grayhawk.</p>There's this one (check the profile), from a pbp that's still on-going (though without me- I had to drop several years ago).

<p>We did it a little different- since there were no dinos back home, I was regular wildshaper til 6th level when I switched to dino shaman after "attuning " myself to the land, but I never recieved the archetype abilities gained before 6th.</p>
<p>Here's some input from my experiences,</p>
<p>With dino shaman, you won't get wild shape till 6th, so you will spend what seems like a looong time waiting for it. </p>
<p>In the meantime, Shillelagh is your friend.</p>
<p>You have:
<br />
1-dodge
<br />
1(human)-Improved iniative
<br />
3-Power attack
<br />
5- (Gm decided natural spell was just a feat tax for druids, so I get natural spell for free)
<br />
7- Improved natural attack (Bite)
<br />
9- Powerful shape
<br />
9(druid bonus)- Vital strike</p>
<p>Wild speech at 7th allows you to conserve wild shape uses as you will not have to end its duration to talk to the party.</p>
<p>Powerful shape pretty much only effects manuvers, usually only giving a bonus of + 1 or 2 and working with size limits on grapple.</p>
<p>I used different shapes for different battles and couldn't convince myself to put feats into one type of atack, so I avoided weapon focus completely and didn't want to sepend a feat on the improved nat attack, which pretty much gives a + 1 to damage.</p>
<p>I'd take wild speech at 7th, skipping improved attack.</p>
<p>I took the feat Quick Wild Shape at 9th.
<br />
Quick Wild Shape
<br />
You sacrifice power for speed in changing form.
<br />
Prerequisites: Wild shape class feature, caster level 8th.
<br />
Benefit: You can wild shape as a move action or a swift action. However, you are limited to forms available to a druid two levels lower when changing form as a move action, or four levels lower as a swift action.</p>
<p>I reccomend toughness as soon as possible, maybe bumping dodge till 5th.</p>
<p>My two main problems were AC and action economy- I wanted a round or two to buff before fights and didn't usually get them.</p>
<p>Extend will help with that, making your buffs last longer.</p>
<p>Anything to help AC will be a life saver.
<br />
You're a front liner and can expect to be a large target most of the time.
<br />
You might want to go the UMD and wand route for Mage Armor and Shield. Potions also work.</p>
<p>You may need to tailor your build to your GM.
<br />
Does he like one big bad or small evil parties?
<br />
That can make significant differences in your build requirements.</p>
<p>It looks like you are the only caster, so that may make a major difference in your play as well.
<br />
Remember, you are a full caster, even if focused on wild shapeing.</p>
<p>A monk dip will delay your wild shape even further and your AC bonus from Wis is only 2.
<br />
IUS is good for opening access to other feats, which you don't have space for.
<br />
Taking up to 4 levels of Monk would not increase the BAB drop but would give a few more feats -at the cost of even more delay to wild shape.</p>
<p>Good Luck.</p>I've been running a dino shaman in a castaways/land of the lost campaign.

<br />
I ran the first two books of Kingmaker, but one of my players is taking over the Path.
<br />
I need to come in with a character.</p>
<p>Cast:
<br />
Fighter, human (very well played, high AC, mainstay of every battle, high skills)
<br />
Sorcerer, human (red draconic, also very well played, covering general and blasting)
<br />
Bard, half-elven (buff and more buff, loads of people skills and play-style supporting the kingdom)
<br />
Cleric, dwarf (basic, more dwarf than healer- old style gamer)
<br />
Druid, human (caster/healer, player going in-active to GM)
<br />
Various:
<br />
Kobold Ninja (inactive due to military)
<br />
Human Ranger (inactive)</p>
<p>Stats (generous- 4d6, re-roll 1's and drop lowest, so I'll roll eight each time and take the first four non-1's))
<br />

<p>Story line effects:
<br />
In game, Lizardman tribes have joined kingdom and begun being integrated, with their own town.
<br />
I would like to be a part of this, as the story event of Kobold tribes joining kingdom was enhanced by the new character as Kobold Ninja.
<br />
So, looking at lizardman character.
<br />
My first thought was Barbarian, making use of natural weapons since lizardman equipped that way, but what about healing?
<br />
Dwarf not dependable for that.
<br />
Thought of Oracle for heals and because has nice feel of shaman type for tribe (maybe Ancestor?).
<br />
Not interested in ninja, gun-slinger, paladin, summoner, or full caster.
<br />
Not familiar with magus, inquisitor, or alchemist. </p>
<p>My basic problem is my characters tend to be niche players such as feinting fighter/thief, wild-shaping druid, or monk/mage.
<br />
I like to have options (whether skills, spells, etc), but as ex-Gm, I don't want to be center of action and detract from existing characters.</p>
<p>What build do you recommend?</p>Situation:

There is a very risky period after the transplant that can last months while your immune system works to replenish itself.
<br />
If you had to transplant bone marrow cells from someone else, it takes at least three times as long.
<br />
Even after that, you can have reversals.
<br />
Please tell the family from someone who went through the process that, well actually there's not much to say.

I can say how much I appreciate the people who were there for me throughout the process.

I'm sure your cousin would like to thank those who were with him, too.</p>

<p>If you must put a unified concept on the class, I like to think of the druid as someone who dances to a different music.

<p>First edition had all druids as part of a single group, clustered in areas by grove, but ultimately all one group. To the extent that the higher levels of druid had limited numbers and progression involved defeating those above you in the organization. Pathfinder does not include this, but there is a holdover in thought that all druids share a single goal. Incorrect. </p>
<p>You can play a druid as someone who feels a greater connection to the simpler world than the complex. Religion is reverence without the need for a god, politics is style rather than country, war is about outcomes rather than victory, etc., etc., etc. Rely on yourself rather than needing your allies to do for you. </p>
<p>A druid can be someone with their own strength who has chosen to act in such a way as to be an example for others to follow. Or they can be someone who acts as they see fit, without needing the approval of another or a hierachy to verify their choices.</p>I like playing druids because you can base your roleplay on feelings rather than needing facts.

Just because the GM knows something that does not mean the NPC's are supposed to know it.

3.In a low magic world casters are the best class to be. While other classes are trying to get magic items you will have magic at your fingertips literally.

4.The crafting skill can allow you to make another item. Just be sure to take the correct one. I would just spend free time making backup items if he goes into meta-game mode.

5.The concentration check is hard at low levels, but later it becomes trivial.
<br />
</blockquote><p>This is the kind of return arguments I was looking for.
</p>
Although, as replacement for a bonded item takes a week and costs 200gp times the wizard class level, so crafting a new bonded item may be a problem.
<br />
Is there any way to get a bonus to the concentration check?
<br />
DC = 20 + spell level is not trivial for a long time at slow experience gain when your bonus to the roll is wizard level plus stat bonus alone. </p>

<p>If your bonded item breaks, it leads to a short period of time where your wizard sucks. Just like your fighter will be less useful if his sword breaks or is lost. However, it's not the end of the game, your bonded item can be replaced with just about any magical goodie that you get along the way. So unless the GM is planning to give you nothing except coin and jewels, you'll be able to use something to replace the bonded item.</blockquote><p>A fighter can carry multiple weapons, switching between them as necessary. And could just pick up a club or staff. A wizard can have only one bonded item. Loss of a piece of equiptment affects them differently.
<p>Has there been anything official said about changing types of bonded items during the wizard's career?
<br />
For example, if I lost my amulet, could I bond to a wand I had found?
<br />
Would the cost for changing the bonded item be covered by the value of the found wand or would it be in addition to the cost/value of the new bonded item?
<br />
If I still had my ring, but wanted to switch to a staff, do I just break it and spend a week without? Or keep the ring, incorporate into a staff and never go without?</p>
<p>Not really going to be low magic, just more lost world type terrain, so no cities to buy magical supplies like scrolls or wand materials.
<br />
In most game there is no reason to know what the supplies are that you need to scribe a scroll or put a spell into your spell book or replenish your casting bag, but when you're in the wilderness 'spend 100 gp times the level of the spell to put it in your spellbook' has new meaning.</p>wraithstrike wrote:That bonded item argument he presented was lacking.

<p>"Also, did anyone see the direction the smaller shade fled in? In his haste to depart, he may have pointed us in an important direction."</p>Now that the fight is over- Now I remember where I left my trident. It's in the wagon. Fine bit of thinking that was.

<p>Is the building smooth sided or are there tiered levels? Since my powers only allow me to reach 16 yards and my strength is only Good, I'm not really able to stretch up five stories and lift Batman up. But if the building is tiered (meaning each story is smaller than the one below, like a wedding cake) I can stretch up one or two levels at a time and let him climb me like a rope.
<br />
Otherwise I can replicate an Incredible level trampoline or slingshot using my Bouncing power. This would seem to require a Feat roll, so here goes: Bouncing (Inc 36)<a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1706386/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">1d100=57</a> This would appear to a green result.
<br />
As I can easily move myself up by bouncing (it's my low strength that prevents me from carrying Bats), I could move up and lower a bat-cable. For a strenth of Good to lift between 200 and 400 pounds seems to require a Yellow Feat, so here goes:<a href="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1706405/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">1d100=80</a> </p>
<p>Does any of this work? I did mention this was my first Marvel game so I'm a little unsure of how this works.</p>

<p>First option: We take the case to the NPPD so they use their resources and prevent any possible attack.
<br />
Second option: We conserve the information and start surveillance and investigation to prevent any possible attack.</p>
<p>No way to work along the NPPD. So we must decide, we are five so this will be a democracy, ...for now.</blockquote><p>"Can we ignore either option? If we expect a terrorist attack, can we <i>not</i> involve the PD? And we <i>have</i> to do all <i>we</i> can, as well."
<p>"I would say we need to give whatever warning we can <i>and</i> we need to act to protect the public by trying to stop this attack."</p>
<p>"The Sargent at the police station in my neighborhood has listened to me in the past. If we've gotten all we can from the note, I could take it to him and pass on the warning. If the opening ceremony can be delayed, we would have more time to track down the attacker. Even if it can't be delayed, the extra caution the PD would use could save lives."</p>
<p>"If the only clue is the note and who it was delivered to, what does that tell us? The letters on the note indicate the sender has been in the area for at least 2 months or has access to someplace that does, like a library. The note being given to Batman suggests he (and us) are being singled out by the attacker. Since our known concern is metahuman crime, does that suggest anyone in particular?"</p>
<p>"The note says 'blown to the skies'. That might mean powers or explosives or even some form of missile. We should be on site to deal with a metahuman or rocket attack. Can we do a search of the area to locate hidden explosives? Mechimera, are your drones capable of that kind of search? Or do we have access to some sort of sensor to do the job?"</p>
<p>"Mech's feint idea is also a possibility. Since the note was to us, what does it direct our attention away from? Is there something in particular we would being doing today that this stops us from doing? Or something today going on today that would be a target we would ignore while we deal with a terrorist attack?"</p>
<p>"I say we start by warning the PD of a possible attack.
<br />
Investigate the note by looking into the source of the letters. Were they taken from a library stash of papers? Or does the compulsive one-letter-per-day indicate a particular villian or group? (after all, it would have been just as anonymous had all the letters been taken from yesterday's paper)
<br />
Search the target area for explosives.
<br />
Be aware of other possible targets.
<br />
And be on hand to deal with whatever attack might occur."</p>Batman wrote:"As you know tomorrow will be inaugurated the new offices of the NPPD at the south zone of the city to serve a place that has been plagued by crime in the last 5 years.

<p>Patricio, I've re-reading your answer to my previous question. You said "2) Remember that Bouncing Ball deals only with bludgeoning attacks but Armor Skin with physical and energy attacks. As far as I can interpret the rule, this powers exclude each other so you must choose if taking your Armor Skin form or execute your Plasticity powers since when you use the first one you lose your human form in a different way than Plasticity."</p>
<p>Plasticity is the basis of my powers. (Elongation is an Additional power and Bouncing Ball is a Bonus power; both are based upon Plasticity.) My understanding was that I could not turn Plasticity on or off, but that it was always on. Armor Skin (Leather) is listed as always on, unless you take the option that it can be switched off to remove the visible effect of Armor Skin. I did not want to be able to turn off the Leathery appearence since I based my character's story on his disfigurment.</p>
<p>Would you rather I:
<br />
1)Assume I have the ability to turn Plasticity on and off; and assume that when Plasticity is on, then Armor Skin is off.
<br />
2)Assume that Plasticity is always on, and that it is the disfigurment referred to in my backstory. This means dropping the power Armor Skin. Since Armor Skin is the power I reduced Resources by two ranks to get, I must choose another power. In this case, I would choose Body Resistance.(Unless there is the same problem with Body Resistance that there is with Armor Skin)
<br />
3)Assume that there is no problem having both Plasticity and Armor Skin on all the time. But that when I activate Bouncing Ball, I will lose the effects of Armor Skin.</p>Pong's details are listed under his profile.

-Plasticity (Rem 26): power rank resistance to blunt Physical attacks
<br />
-Bouncing Ball (Inc 36): +3 CS resistance to blunt Physical attacks

Group enters throught swinging bar doors, sagebrush blowing by in background. Team spreads out, long coats flapping in dusty breeze. Bar patrons look up, as bartender uses dirty rag to wipe glass. Eir say, "I'm lookin for that no-good skunk Norgens. Any o' you varmints with him prepare to slap leather." Patrons duck under tables. 4 gobbos stand and draw. Melee begins. Survivors have drink from bottle passed around, then leave. Goblin survivors either escape or get carried off by group, who say "Let's string 'em up, so Norgens knows we mean business."

<p>I like this much better than Igor. He was an attempt to make a solo class sorcerer, which PrimeMover003 did much better than i did. Igore is a brute with the -feel- from his bloodline I was looking for. He is not a primary spellcaster, but he should work well. At level one, a barbarian works, at level two he gets sorcerer bloodline, and from then on he is set. Major weakness is a low ac, but he has hp's. Also, if you cannot add grave touch (a melee touch) to his gauntlet punch, I would switch his feats to Imp. Unarmed combat and Improved grapple. Some magic protection and such and I'll be good. As he levels, he alternate barb and sorc, so at higher levels he'll have more spells and a harder punch.</p>
<p>What do you think?</p>
<p>What I have learned is that for me, sorcerer is not a single class character. I'm too attached with the utility of having as many spells as I can learn, as soon as I can learn them to play the sorcerer as only a spell caster. But I must say that I like the way he multi-classes. Igore fits my test build requirements. Yet again, Pathfinder has provided me with a character that is, rather than is heading to a prestige class.</p>
<p>My wishes for sorcerer?
<br />
-Bonded item- possiblity allowing me to use for touch spells instead of additional casting
<br />
-more spells known (use int stat to provide more known spells as per bonus)
<br />
-more skill points and more skills (but that will always be true)- I would like to give each bloodline some class skills, at least the ones they could get skill focus for
<br />
-more in the way of higher level bloodline powers- These don't make me crave them
<br />
- to get a look at the feats enhancing sorcerer and barbarian I know will be seen eventually
<br />
-A polymorph to undead spell on par with the other polymorphs</p>
<p>But I don't -need- these things- Igore Proudfoot already works. THANK YOU, PAIZO FOLKS! -niel</p>Take two on Igore.

I was inspired to build a character I'd always passed on- a specialist wizard. I usually have so much trouble choosing which schools to give up, I just play a straight wizard. But the new pathfinder specialist grabbed me.</p>
<p>When we got hints from Jason on alpha 2, I was captured by the idea of a sorcerous Bloodline. I thought here's a hook that will make a sorcerer I'd want to play. Thus Igor was born. I dived right in after a quick read of the revelant sections and posted the result.</p>
<p>At present, I'm not satisfied. I think my emphasis is too much on necromancy, instead of concentrating on being kin to the dead. My fault for drifting from sorcerer to wizard. </p>
<p>What are your suggestions for a do-over? First would be a different race. Halfling adds nothing to the class, though I do like them. What changes should be made? Is another bloodline going to make the character?</p>
<p>The goal of this is to see whether I can build a bloodline sorcerer that I can show to someone who hasn't read the alphas and get them to try Pathfinder. I can already do this with fighter, rogue, cleric, and wizard, but I figure if I can convince me to play a sorcerer, I can convince anyone in my group.</p>
<p>That said, the stated parameters are:
<br />
-able to survive standard encounters
<br />
-able to contribute to the party
<br />
-use bloodline as the 'hook' the character is based on
<br />
-super efficient is -not- the goal, but being effective is
<br />
-single class is prefered, but I'm leaning towards multiclassed
<br />
The resulting character should be someone you might not want to play, but would want to have in your party.</p>
<p>I'll give Igor a second try, this time at fourth level so I can multiclass if necessary.</p>
<p>Please chime in with ideas. I want to feel the same about the sorcerer as I do about the core classes.</p>
<p>Either way this comes out- Jason and all: I am loving being a part of your creative process. Pathfinder is a pleasure to tinker with.</p>
<p>P.S. Please can I have an arcane bond like the wizard? I would love a familiar or a bonded item. Though I probably don't need the extra spell from the bonded item, I would like the crafting ability. Maybe let the item give me a sudden metamagic feat or let me cast touch spells through it instead of the extra slot?</p>When I read the alpha, I was immediately hooked.

<p>My early build impressions:</p>
<p>-Under bloodline feats for undead: Skill Focus (K(religion)) sounded cool until I realized K(rel) wasn't a class skill; Spell Focus(Necro) sounded obvious until I went to choose spells, then Toughness sounded better for the early levels.</p>
<p>-Skill choices: I wanted to get intimidate, but the size modifier kills the idea of my 'undeadness' frightening folks; Deception has been broken apart and only bluff is a class skill; So I went with the standards and taxidermy.</p>
<p>-spell choice: I had forgotten that I would need 'read magic' to avoid rolls to use scrolls (Wizards get it free- why not sorcerers?), 1st level necro spells left me uninspired as chill touch overlaps the bloodline ability, ray of enfeeblement is a favorite- but not as the only attack spell, and cause fear is short duration. I went with mage armor for defense and found 'Backbiter' in spell comp.- which made spell focus more attractive. I like the idea of only attacking those who attack me.</p>
<p>-I was disapointed to not get the arcane bond. I was looking forward to my 'one ring' after seeing it was possible to combine enchantments in one item. This left me feeling shorted. I was also disappointed not to have any undead polymorph spells. While I won't get any such spell for many levels, it sounded like it would fit my bloodline to turn into undead with a short-term spell.</p>
<p>Early Impression: I came into this build excited with the bloodline, but it didn't last. I didn't get the feel I expected from the bloodline as it had limited effect on my spells. I guess I expected a bloodline to define a theme to my spellcasting, but it didn't seem too. Perhaps after I add some levels.</p>
<p>My basic impression: I would definately take a few levels of Sorcerer, but, unlike the wizard class, I would definately multi-class and the sorcerer levels would be the add to the other class, not the reverse. Maybe monk/sorcerer or the obvious cleric/sorcerer. Barbarian/sorcerer would also be interesting, but I haven't gone into the Pathfinder barbarian yet</p>Check out proflie for my quick test build of Igor.

Patience can lead to many rewards.Saurig (alias of niel)2008-04-18T12:40:00ZRe: Forums: Play-by-Post Discussion: The World Serpent InnSaurig (alias of niel)https://paizo.com/threads/rzs2hul1&page=10?The-World-Serpent-Inn#4942010-05-30T01:51:29Z2008-04-16T15:04:20Z<p><i> picking up the bottle slowly and carefully opening it, then pouring gently into the array of glasses</i></p>
<p>Thank you, Sharinda. This should be a treat. Friends, I find it most enjoyable if you first warm the glass in you hands before drinking.</p>picking up the bottle slowly and carefully opening it, then pouring gently into the array of glasses

As does cheese, crackers, or many types of desert. And it is made from fruit, so its good for you, too.</p>Actualy, your ice cream goes fairly well with port.

<p>Character concept (subject to approval and party compatibility):
<br />
Theriopodid Proudtalon is from Raerth, a distant planar world. Like many such spheres, Raerth has a distinct theme. Once just a normal world, it happened to be the birthplace of the one now known as The Ancestor. T. A. was a slightly mad (epic class) sorcerer with a fetish for reptiles. Once he was done with his oddball casting, Raerth was populated with reptiliod variants of the various races (rhumans, relves, drarves, grones, rorcs, retc). Theriopodid is a robbit (in game terms identical to a halfling except for appearance). Like many Proudtalons, Theriopodid has itchy feet (talons?). One of his forebearers, from before the Adjustment, was said to hail from another plane. So when Theriopodid was presented with the chance to join a planar caravan leaving Raerth, he jumped at it. Unfortunately, his unfamiliarity with planar booze resulted with him waking up from a three day hot mud bath at the World Serpent Inn. Since his employer had left without him, he has been paying his tab by acting as a maintainence man (robbit?)- cleaning as needed and repairing broken crockery. As his name is difficult to pronounce without a snout, he's known as Greep, after the croaking sound he peppers his speech with.

(All of this was inspired by a couple of avatar pictures. Unfortunately, I haven't figured out how to post with an alias.)</p>
<p>If we use Pathfinder, I'm thinking Rogue 2, Transmuter 1 ; N or NG.
<br />
If not PRPG, maybe a ranger (urban variant) or bard. (I admit to being addicted to skills.)</p>
