You can deffinitely die of massive damage if you have your own foot in your mouth.
I have a friend who has a bas habit of that...I offered him a solution for that.
I said he should wear a shock collar and have some body stand by with the button to shock him if says something stupid. I even volunteered to do it for free

Ah the life lessons learned from old video games...I an so ready for a jungle adventure.

My house rules on Ancestry feats did not make the game explode
It is a good compromise system.

And how did your PF2 game go otherwise? High Points? Problems? Etc.?

I didn't die from massive social damage...but my paladin did die from using Pathfinder rules massive death damage...and rolling a one.
Anyways,
Dear Selene;
Which of these concepts from your perspective sounds good? (I just want an opinion NOT necessarily character advice); a sylph lighting sorcerer with the stormborn bloodline 5/oracle of winds 5/mystic theurge that kind of wants to replace the Duchess of Winds on the Elemental Plane of wind and also be like Calistra....(in that she likes to enchant her thralls to have sex with her); or a tielfling inquisitor of Dranngvit/hellknight signifier of the order of the nail?

***Report***
House rules in use:
1) Players at 1st level selected 3 1st level Ancestry Feats.
2) Players started with 20gp.
7 Players:
Half Orc Fighter (player is kinda a Paizo hater...has issues with 'mobility')
Half Orc Crusader Paladin of Shelyn (Kinda a new player...liked it)
Elf Wizard (experience player...had 'issues' but wouldn't elaborate)
Goblin Ranger (dislikes Pathfinder due to 'complexity'...enjoyed it)
Elf Barbarian (New player...enjoyed it)
Half-Elf Barbarian (experienced Pathfinder player...enjoyed it)
Dwarf Alchemist (New player to Pathfinder...enjoyed the options)
Started at 1st Level
3 Combats:
1) 8 Kobold Warriors and 1 Orc Brute.
2) 5 orc brutes and 1 Orc Warchief
*Note at this point I leveled the party to Level 2*
3) 1 Ogre Warrior and 1 Ogre Glutton
Observation:
-I liked the monsters stat blocks...they were interesting to run as a GM.
- I liked the alchemist's resource management.
- Even without a cleric between the Crusader, the Alchemist, and players with Battlefield Medic there was enough healing.
- I ran it like I would 1st ed...adjusting encounters on the fly...and did not run into any issues.
- A lot of the players took two attacks and landed enough to make it worth it.
- I Critted the 1/2 Orc Fighter like alot...but critically failed my saves vs the wizard's A lot too...
Conclusion: I liked it...I still like 1st ed better but for my friends who for whatever reason dislike PF 1st Ed this would work great as a compromise.
I am running another 2nd ed game this Wed....well at least we will be handling character gen.

Okay...
The first one could be problematic. The whole enchanting people to have sex with is kinda rapey (Also nothing like Calistria who is firmly against rape and does not need to use magic to get sex...sorry pet peeve there). Now in with certain groups this might be okay...but it could trigger people...
Other than that if you just make her more sex positive...
I kinda like both concepts...

The party leveled after only two combats??

Since you like kitsune, what PF1E classes did you play with them? What kitsune feats/traits did you select for them?
If they were available in PF2E what classes would you play with them? What kitsune feats would you select for them?
Never got play one in 1st...yet.
But I would play a rogue and take all of the tail feats.
I would have to wait and see what they do to them in 2nd ed before answering that,

Yes it was a test...I wanted yo see how leveling worked...and how long it would take...

Dear Selene,
Firstly I'm sorry if my character concept IE personality upset you. I've been dealing with being the butt of jokes in my group MOSTLY because I'm the paladin. It's fine for like...whatever. But when my paladins die (because most of them do) I tend to feel...resentful? I guess. So then I make up CN dicks that tend to be very disruptive and thus MIGHT not be representative of actual Pathfinder divinities...even though this one character concept DOES have a lot of...self centered-ness to her.
Secondly, I'm not sure about triggering...so much as I wanted to see what the group's reaction would be to playing some a little more...against type I guess?
Anyways I might just scale this back to doing an arcanist with the White Mage archetype. If only because then I can still do good just not...LG good. probably. We'll see.
Now for my question: IF Sony does indeed pull out of the agreement with Marvel...do you think this spells the end of Spider-man in the MCU...at least in the near future?

It went smoothly...
The only problem is in my opinion it gets annoying to up everything by 1 every level.

It all cool...I think you just went too far into Evil territory to be CN...if you want my advice on playing the seductive sex positive woman I would be glad to help.
As for Spider-Man...sadly I have been reading apparently it is a dead deal...and yes it will spell the end of Spider-Man in the MCU. Well at least we got two great Spider-Man movies and he was great in CA:CW and the Avengers Movies...

A legitimate complaint, or just Grognard-ism?

Changing Gears:
Did Rocky Sullivan die a coward? (Angels with Dirty Faces, Warner Bros. 1937)
And if you haven't seen this movie, you really need to.

I have not seen it...but reading up on it...I think he did. I don't think it was a act...
But I will give it a watch..

Selene,
It was in response to Rysky's "who made what?"
and yes I'm not limited by one movie in my life. But I'm trying to avoid movies I don't think I'll enjoy.
Hence why I'm actively staying away from Angry Birds.
Oh okay...
Matt made a Half-Elf Rogue
Paul made a Dwarf Fighter
Frank made a Human Fighter
Jeremy made a Human Cleric
Chuck made a Elf Ranger
Ryan made a Elf Bard...
Sigh I need to find more female gamers... :(

Selene Spires |

Selene,
You're not the only one that wants more women in his group. Especially ones that are younger than me. Not that I don't want older women just...you know, encourage more of the future.
Also question for Selene,
Do you read much comic books, especially recently?
I used to...about 15 years ago...I think.

(My head canon is that Pathfinder hags and norns (and possibly lamias) are offshoots of the same ancient root fey race/ancestry. The hags are emigrants/exiles who left because they became corrupted, or that they were corrupted by the trauma of losing their connection to The First World & the unforgiving requirements of survival on the Prime Material.)
Hags are based on Germanic/Slavic and Irish/Scottish real-world myths. Do you think a new "desert hag" would work thematically in places like Thuvia, Osirion, Qadira, Geb, etc with it being so far geographically removed from the areas of Golarion influenced by Germanic/Slavic and Irish/Scottish folklore?
Do you have your ideas about new hag types and/or lore?
