We've now got classes or archetypes that start with every letter of the alphabet EXCEPT for the wonderful letter "X". Why is Paizo so hateful of this proud, EXCEPTIONAL letter?

Why not a Xenophobe archetype for Inquisitor? Or Xebec Sailor archetype for Swashbuckler? Or even a Xerarch Monk, who develops fighting styles that take advantage of dry, desert environs?

You can DO it, Paizo!

Edit: Just in case you want to save yourself the trouble of confirming this, here's a sample list.

Alchemist
Bard
Cleric
Druid
Elemental Kin
Fighter
Gunslinger
Hunter
Investigator
Jungle Rager
Kapenic Dancer
Lore Warden
Magus
Ninja
Oracle
Paladin
Quinggong Monk
Rogue
Sorcerer
Titan Mauler
Urban Barbarian
Varisian Pilgrim
Wizard
X (MISSING!)
Yokai Hunter
Zen Archer


I eagerly await the release of the Xylophonist Bard.

Maybe a Xenomorphic Druid that Wildshapes into Aberrant creatures?


The Xanthite (alchemist archetype): Specializes in the creation of acids, and can also create mutagen stimulants.

The Xerarch (druid archetype): Druids that try to revive deserts through the application of water magics.

The Xylotomist (investigator archetype): Forensic investigators of wood (has some druid crossover).

Xenopus (bloodrager bloodline): Grants froglike bloodline abilities. (Okay, I guess that's not really an archetype. Maybe it could be.)

Xebecador (rogue archetype): A seagoing rogue- part merchant, part pirate- with an affinity for nets.


Xerox: a sorcerer archetype that adds any spell you see and identify to your spells known until you rest


Xenops Wrangler. Focuses on summoning huge flocks of small birds that emulate AOE spells like fireball, obscuring mist, etc.. Except it's a ton of birds and not actual fire or mist.


What no Xena jokes?

You don't joke about Xena.

She will f+@* you up.

Sovereign Court

I think the Xenomorph could be a neat totally inside-out druid archetype. Using the main chassis of the class but big changes to the feel, like the Zen Archer, Bolt Ace or Archaeologist.
