Low-Level Over the Top Characters

[Josh Bean 691]

Hey guys. We've got a friend who is opting to DM our next Pathfinder group, and has decided that the 'you met in a bar' cliche has gotten a bit old and has decided to come up with an entirely original concept work.

The basis for his world, from what I have gathered so far, is that it is supposed to be an area of extreme toughness, that "if you don't a have a broken character, you have a high chance of dying." He also is putting a huge amount of emphasis on backstory and how it all translates to particular enhancements, trinkets, effects, etc. you may have come across, and none of the characters will know a damn thing about anybody else at the beginning.

Standard 4d6, 7 roll stat build. He wants to do a pre-checkup with each of the characters to feel out their backstory and possibly workout some more details before we even start gaming. We also will be starting anywhere between level 1-4, we just have to justify as to why we need to start where we do (hence the emphasis on backstory).

I'm down for this idea, I think it's really intriguing. I've been mulling over a couple characters, like a Drow Noble/vampire/Anti-Paladin, some sort of construct/wizard/metal elementalist, or even a human/two-handed fighter with a mercurial Greatsword/flaming enchantment. What do you guys think? What would be some ridiculous characters you would like to try out in this scenario?

[GM Arkwright]

Half-Elf Synthesist, dipping Paladin and Monk at high levels.

Gunslinger

Oracle of Heavens Color-spray focuser

Scarred Witch Doctor Witch

For fun- Aasimar Oracle of Nature with the Horsemaster feat.

[I3igAl]

Mounted Combat for instakill at lower levels. A Mounted Fury Barbarian should have the highest initially possible damage.

[Azixirad]

It seems a master summoner draws a bunch of comments on how overpowering it is

[Josh Bean 691]

Yea, I've been the same vibe actually. Seems pretty legit, too. Don't think I've ever played a summoner class before so I may have to try it out.

At low level the heavens colorsprayer is god to anything with eyes. You can even build it to effect undead.

2ragechemist/vivisectionist , 1 barb- rest barb=+10 strength.

Cleric that negative alt channels alcohol. If they fail the save they are nauseated(gets only 1 move action on theri turn)

Kitsune enchanter. Get crazy high DCs for save or suck spells.

[Halinn]

If you can swing Drow Noble, it's probably the most powerful race that has been statted out (Strix is really good too. Flight speeds are awesome). If you can build a race yourself with the Advanced Race Guide, even better (for example, a pre-defined feat is worth half as much as one you can freely choose, but you can just pre-define it to be the one you want).

Something the two of us came up with was a changeling/elf hybrid synthesist that starts taking levels of the Warshaper PRC from 3.5 at level 6. My question is whether or not the natural attacks/enhancements you gain from the race and classes stack with the natural attacks the Eidolon already does.
