Have Aasimar, Want build advice.


Advice

Liberty's Edge

Ok so I have the Aasamir chronicle for PFS, and want to build a cool Aasamir character. I want this build to be a thematically cool build. I don't want to be a slouch in combat, but I want some cool flavor options. I've GM Credited enough to have 3500 gold and be level 3. I'm really only looking at 3 class options for right now.
Option 1: Paladin
Option 2: Inquisitor
Option 3: Bard

I want to play up the part Angel thing, but I really don't know what to do with it, I was hoping for some suggestions.

The Paladin Aasamir has been done to death. It would be great to see one as an Iquisitor. You could have lots of fun with backround alone. The Aasamir's ability bonus can only aid you. Same for Bard. I would look into Archtypes for both the Bard and Inquisitor. Lots of flavor to be had and combat choices to be had.

Inquisitor for sure. A very versatile and fun class.

Necromancer cleric. You have the charisma to help with Command Undead, and no one will ever see it coming.


Gunslinger Lawman type, I think the archetype is (Mysterious Stranger) so you can use your charisma, use two guns and call yourself a Marshall, and watch a lot of old westerns to get an interesting feel for the character.


Aasimar Inquisitor (Sin Eater) would be fun. Might even through some evil-prone behavior in there, since she would be devouring the sins of those she slays.

why not cleric? assimars are great clerics.

paladin is to restrictive to be thematically cool, atleast imo. i dont like inquisitors personally, i would rather go cleric but what ever works for you.

an assimar rogue is a very good option, they get cha for umd and wis for ki pool, then add in invisibility.

bards are awsome in pathfinder, so if you dont want to be divine class that is a great option.

I was kind of wanting to be divine, or if he isn't divine, to make people think that he is. I want to play up that angle of his angelic heritage. The reason why I am not considering a cleric is this: I already have one, more than that I already used a race boon to get a fairly unique cleric. Dr. Acula is my Dhampir cleric who is a Channel Negative Energy specialist. I'd hate to do two clerics that are both my boon races, so I'm looking for something different. I thought about a Sarenite Inquisitor to take the already great energy resists of the Aasamir and stack them with the Fire resist from the Fire Domain, but that doesn't fully blossom until 6th level.
As far as the Paladin build I just thought it would be fairly easy to come up with something neat off of that, perhaps do a shield bash dual wielder.


or hold out for blood of angels guide (assuming its legal) and see what that gives you, could open some fresh doors.

btw, grats on an Aasimar... I hope to score one sometime.

Would be great if any GM's I knew allowed them for home games.

An Inquisitor of Ragathiel would be flavorful, and fitting.
Worshiping the Empyreal Lord of Chivalry, chastity, duty, and vengeance.
The domains and favored weapon are good too.

An Oracle would be appropriate. Fire mystery, or Ancestor, with the Language curse.
