Dead Rising In Pathfinder


Conversions


Hello everyone! New here but won't waste much time with the introductions (Just hope I get this post done right.).

To those who've played or seen the series Dead Rising, the protagonist is set in an open world environment and left to fend off hordes of undead with whatever weapon they can create or find.

A DM of mine is going to set us in a Mythic Campaign full of undead. The semi-cliche but never tiring story of a band of heroes saving a town from a lich.

However, considering the undead based themes, I wanted to recreate Frank West from the Dead Rising series in Pathfinder for this such occasion! Core feats, class suggestions, and mythic recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Third Party is allowed but do please try keeping it to a minimum if possible.

I know the human race and Improvised Weapon Mastery are necessary! However, a list of possible options would be greatly appreciated. As well as any unique ways to mimic crafting in Dead Rising (Like using Lamp Oil to set a stick on fire for additional fire damage)


If your DM will allow it, there is a racial trait in the Advanced Race Guide (race creation section) called Master Tinker. It's a 1rp trait, and it allows you to be proficient in the use of any weapon personally crafted by you. Maybe they'll let you trade something else for it from the regular list of racial traits. I think this would be the biggest boon for a Frank West style character.
