Tengu Glide trait / Wings feat and Fly skill.


Rules Questions


I'd like to create a Tengu that starts off gliding and eventually gaining the wings and raven form.

Based on my understanding of the Fly skill at level 1 I can put ranks in it but it's not a class skill, however at level 5 after gaining the wings it becomes a class skill due to gaining a flight speed? Is that correct?

Edit: Forgot to mention that the Tengu will be a Lore Warden so its not a class that already would have it.


If traits are allowed in the game, I bet you could find one to make Fly a class skill.

You cannot take this skill without a natural means of flight or gliding. Creatures can also take ranks in Fly if they possess a reliable means of flying every day (either through a spell or other magical manner, such as a druid’s wild shape ability).

So you couldn't put ranks into the skill until you had a "reliable means of flying every day", but once you reached 5th level you could dump max ranks right into it, and it would be a class skill.

Glide Some tengus can use their feathered arms and legs to glide. Tengus with this racial trait can make a DC 15 Fly check to fall safely from any height without taking falling damage, as if using feather fall. When falling safely, a tengu may make an additional DC 15 Fly check to glide, moving 5 feet laterally for every 20 feet he falls. This racial trait replaces gifted linguist.

O.O

I suppose I should have known that, since my main in PFS is a Tengu (I just stuck with Gifted Linguist instead).
