Bounty Hunter Gear


Advice


Hello everyone,

I'm thinking my next character will be a Tetori Monk who'll run around grappling, pinning, and binding enemies to take them out of the fight. From there, he'll either CDG them, interrogate them, or keep them alive and deliver them to the authorities for a handsome reward.

His main weapons will of course be unarmed strikes, with some Bolas and a few daggers of various materials to get around DR. He'll also have various strands of ropes, and chains, manacles, etc... to secure his foes.

That said, carting prisoners around could be a pain, so I'm wondering what sort of equipment a bounty hunter would have to facilitate transporting his prisoners. Is there some sort of extradimensional storage option that allows you to store people? I know a handy haversack can sustain someone for 10ish minutes, and a portable hole has similar limitations. You'd think in a land of common magic, interdimensional travel/storage, and bounty hunters someone would've made something, but I can't think of one. Paizo products only, no 3pp ideally.

What else would he have? I'm thinking maybe some debuffing stuff like poisons, smokesticks, etc... all while keeping a really low profile so as to not draw lots of attention until it's time to tag his quarry.

Thanks in advance


Bottle of air (7,250 gp)- Throw that into the Portable Hole with your captive.

Mage's Magnificent Mansion - Build a jail cell inside and throw them in.

Those two options too expensive? Pony and a cart... simple yet effective.


Muleback Chords might help along with potions of Ant Haul if you can get them. Could just pick the guy up carry him.


Tons of masterwork manacles... Break a few bones if you need to. Careful with casters, bound and gagged they can still use silent and still spell.


Manacles of Cooperation will at least help to ensure that they dont fight back.


Good options but some of them are pricey, I figure making called shots against various body parts while they bound can be nice and crippling, I'm just thinking of having cleared out a bandit camp with 7 outlaws, I can't sling them all over my back, but I guess the horse and cart option is a nice basic method. I was hoping for something flashier or some sort of object that could trap someone in a bottle or some such for ease of transport. Thanks for the ideas guys

Look at like this...

A guy in robes and a straw had comes riding in to town driving an old pony pulling a beaten up cart... only to find that he is a BA Bounty Hunter monk with 7 of the most infamous bandits of the land ready to be taken into custody.

Who would expect that! Reminds me of all the old karate movies of the Master martial artist is a simple farmer lol.

You might customize Secret Chest to a Secret Jail.

Instead of having a 75 % fail chance if it contains living creatures, add a 75 % chance that any items inside is lost in the ethereal plane.


Yeah, I was kind of hoping to go for the understated hero, everyone thinks he's some homeless bum and he lets them think that up until he walks into the biker bar and walks out a few minutes later with his own chain gang.

Worse comes to worst, I'll just get a wand of reduce person and a wand of flesh to stone then walk around with my very own garden statue collection :D
