As Stated, working on a new character. Want to make something that specializes in charming and turning over the enemy under my control. Any thoughts on the best way to go about this? PFS legal also, please.
If you get the boon or wait until they're legal, a kitsune sorcerer with the fey bloodline specializing in enchantment is very effective. I believe there are metamagic feats to have mind-affecting spells apply to constructs, undead, and vermin. The fey kitsune sorceress is rather cliched at this point, though, so your PFS party may not love you. Not too much of a problem with some good characterization, though.
Enchantment is by far a larger spell portfolio, but if you want to be able to do so without spells, You could look into a diplomancer sorcerer.
Human Varisian (tattooed) Sorcerer
Shoot for 20 Cha, 18 or 19 still works fine.
Take one rank in diplomacy at Lv 1 +1 dip
Traits: Extremely Fashionable +1 dip (class skill) (+1 bluff and Intimidate)
Human Features:
Trade Skilled for Silver Tongued +2 dip (+2 bluff)
Trade Bonus feat for Focused Study: Skill Focus (Diplomacy) +3 dip
Feat: Persuasive +2 dip (+2 intimidate)
You have Tattoo Familiar so take:
Familiar: Thrush +3 dip
Diplomacy: 5+1+1+3+2+3+2+3=+20
Add 3 for a circlet of Persuasion eventually
at 10th, you have +9 from ranks, and and additional +5 from SF and Persuasive for another 17, so +37 total.
DC to improve a hostile character's attitude is 25+cha. you can go up 3 steps with Silver Tongued with a DC 35+cha. So at 10th you can do that almost automatically, and Level one only takes a 15+target's cha.
"Gimme ten minutes alone with the prisoner" Prisoner comes out your friend.
