Creating an Inquisitor, need help picking a religion


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


Designing an Inquisitor for a future game, and wondered what god would best suit the character.

He is to be close to the "classic" inquisitor type, stern and cold, relentlessly hunting ennemies of the Law and of Humanity (mostly monsters of all kind, and demons). He will be Lawful-Neutral, and pretty much "Judge Dread-y". When/if he can get his hands on one, his weapon of choice will be a riffle. A god with a decent favortie weapon would help, especially for the first levels, where every bit of dammage counts. Of course, domains are a major factor, he will need those domain powers bad. (Remember Inquisitors only gain the domains powers, not spells).

As far as I know, it seems the campaign will probably be set up in Darkmoon Vale. Any tough?

My first thoughs were Abadar, Iomedae and Aroden (tough being dead, Aroden does'nt grant spells, so that might be a problem...) and Ragathiel (one of the Empyreal Lords). I did think of Asmodeus, but if possible, I'd rather not have an evil patron deity.

Any toughts / opinion on this?


perhaps Erastil, the protector of the Community. Might work in a rural setting like Darkmoon Vale

I second Erastil. You get a bow and access to the animal domain (gain an animal companion like a ranger).

I also think Sarenrae could fit your bill. She's vehement against evil doers and you get access to the scimitar (another solid weapon). While not awesome, the healing domain frees up your spells to bring the unconscious back to life and beefs up those somewhat lackluster heals you get access to.
