The witches prehensile hair.

Prehensile hair... thoughts?

I kinda think it would be neat to see a ninja, monk, or ranger, and grab a level of witch just for prehensile hair. make the character a white haired tian female and... well some of you may get where I am going with this.

Cheers

BTW which would you choose? Ninja? Monk? Ranger? other?

The Orc Witch archetype allows you to use you constitution for spells, hexes, etc. This means it meshes well with martial multiclassing.

Now, there is a start.

I was shooting more for the white haired female warrior Ni Chang from the bride with white hair and the forbidden kingdom, also starring jacki chan. I tend to use pathfinder to attempt to recreate what i consider interesting movie characters.


Hmmmm.....How would this work with a Medusa Witch?

Silver Crusade

Not sure, my goal is simply to recreat the character from the movies not optimization.

Long white haired female Orc? Creating a character based off a movie character, and then making it a fantasy race that did not exist in the movie is not a huge jump.

What are some core things this concept must have, to meet your vision?

Are you talking about using the White-Haired Witch archetype?

White Haired Witch abilities, and the Prehensile Hair Hex are quite different.
Which one suits your concept better?

I am not sure to be honest. been playing pathfinder for about two monthsafter jumping ship on 4th ed. was watching to movie forbidden kingdom and thought the white haired assassin typelady would be a bad ass character but how? after reading witch hexes I noticed prehensile hair so that was one part out of the way. additionally the character in the movie was highly skilled with the bow and arrow, hand to hand combat, and a whip.

She does not have to be human but in the movie she is played by a chinese actress with long flowing white hair.


A hexcrafter magus can also get witch hexes and may suit the more martial aspects of the character.
