I just my hands on the Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign setting, and I like the new Harrower PrC, so I've put together a couple of Harrowers. Feel free to drop these into your campaign wherever you want if you like them.

Iozif Farezhadi
Male Varisian human
Lawful Good paladin of Erastil
Paladin 10/harrower 5
Abilities: STR 15 DEX 8 CON 12 INT 10 WIS 15 CHA 16
Feats: Harrowed, Power Attack, Cleave, Combat Casting, Spell focus: Transmutation, Varisian Tattoo: Transmutation, Mounted Combat

Background:Iozif is an unusual paladin by any assessment. Born into a typical Varisian caravan community, he spent most of his youth as typical Varisian does: running carnival games for outsiders, chasing pretty girls in the caravan and out of it, and generally embracing life as a series of thrills and pleasures. Then, at some point in his late twenties, he started feeling restless, like there was something more to his existence that he was throwing away or missing by wandering around chasing skirts and thrills. He ignored it for a while, and then went in for a harrowing that changed his life. The old harrower loudly chastized him for his immaturity, and then slammed her deck down in front of him, claiming he had "tainted" it by asking her for a reading. Shocked and shaken by this, he gingerly picked up the cards and left. Walking away dejected, he turned over the top card and the realization hit him like a ton of bricks. He vanished shortly thereafter and when he reappeared, he was a paladin of Erastil. As he gained experience as a paladin, he becan to realize that the harrow deck he'd kept wasn't through with him yet, and he began gaining unusual abilities he couldn't fully explain from it. Adopting an attitude of pragmatism, he refined these new abilities, and uses them in fight against evil.
Personality:Iozif seems to be perpetually relieved. He has a purpose, and that apparently makes all the difference. He is still a kindhearted and somewhat "impish" person by nature, with a mirthful personality and a tendency to poke fun at those who take themselves too seriously. He uses his powers as a harrower to fight evil and protect good people, but he's very matter-of-fact about it. False mysticism seems pointless to him.

Pafinil Gundrick
Male Human; indeterminate heritage
Neutral
Wizard 5/Harrower 10/Archmage 2/Magical Trickster 3(see Complete Scoundrel)
Abilities: STR 12 DEX 13 CON 14 INT 20 WIS 10 CHA 8
Feats: Spell focus: Conjuration, Augment Summoning, Bloatmage Initiate: Conjuration, Quicken Spell, Empower Spell, Maximize Spell, Still Spell, Widen Spell
Background:Pafinil is a collector of magical techniques. He's traveled the world around looking for new and innovative magical tricks. So far he's picked up harrowing, bloat mage training, and an eclectic array of exotic spells. He's a mage of some power, but often doesn't seem to realize it himself.
Personality:Pafinil is a classic "nerd" if such a term existed on Golarion. He loves knowledge for its own sake, is extremely socially awkward, and collects things for their own sake (in his case, magical techniques). He could be persuaded to help others rather easily if someone offered him some magical trick he didn't already know. Unfortunately for those who would have his aid, this isn't easy...

The ne'er do well-turned-Paladin as a result of a Harrowing is just an awesome concept! Nicely done!
