How do we stat out Horatio Caine?


Conversions


I need some help. I have some basic ideas. First off, alignment is almost certainly Neutral Good. Sure, he's a cop, but he doesn't always side with procedure. Second, he is at least 6th level, probably higher. Sure, 5th is the cut-off for realism, but let's face it: realistic he ain't. He's too awesome to be real. As for class, probably bard, inquisitor, or ninja. The first two are good police officer/investigator classes, with plenty of skill points and abilities, and the third fits the way he always pops up out of nowhere right when he's needed and then kicks ass.

What ability scores and feats do you guys think he has? Can you help me narrow down class and level?


Judging from Brazil, I'd go with gunslinger for class. Maybe with a wee bit of barbarian.


Perhaps Gunslinger/Ninja. Seriously, the guy comes out of nowhere.


I could see gunslinger/ninja. If those shades are actually goggles of the night he could sneak attack in the dark too.


It's HORATIO CAINE. He probably has darkvision.

Did the Advanced Race Guide playtest have any rules for having fireball as a (Sp) that is activated via making a bad pun and turning to face the camera?


Who is Horatio Caine?
-gets shot-


Oh...I know a halfling whose about to go splat...


Oh. Well, I live under a rock. Thankfully, I still have google.
-I have to say Horatio probably has maximum hp.

-runs away-


And I'm pretty sure you can youtube his Brazilian killing spree too. :)


Maximum HP? Probably.

Why does Horatio Caine look like Kirby? Did Kirby swallow Horatio Caine and absorb his power?


I have no idea. It was the best fitting avatar I could find.


Oh I was referring to:

Oh, that.

Kirby did not swallow Horatio. Horatio swallowed Kirby.

Horatio Kaine!

I'm fairly confident that Miami's finest could take down Chuck Norris.


Oh, no doubt.

What about stats for Sam Axe?


I don't watch a lot of Burn Notice, so I can't help there.

I don't know, is there a racial trait for Chin of Doom?

Horatio is not a member of the weakest class in Pathfinder! Make him a Ninja instead.


Other than that oversight, it's pretty good.

Ninja would give him some odd abilities- like poison use; which don't really fit H.C.

I gave him the bandit-rogue archetype for the ambush ability, which seemed to go well, but like I said: I'll probably end up doing a final version at some point as an urban ranger with a gun.

Also...


We are not weak...we're differently focused!

*Sigh*

Bluff: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

*Sigh*
