Kasatha Gunslinger? Inquisitor? Brawler? Skald? Hunter? Rogue? Slayer? Warpriest? I'll take whatever you're willing to make. I didn't realize I wanted any of these.
Maybe a little more preference toward Skald, Hunter, or Warpriest.
Any of those would be super cool.
Man. Now I wanna run a campaign with nothing but these archetypes though. You're great.

I've already submitted a couple of Elf ideas.
For Humans, how about a Sorcerer Archetype that comes from the "paradigm-shifting next step in evolution" trope?
Svirfneblin idea: A Fighter Archetype that emphasizes various forms of stealthy fighting (without being a Rogue).
Several Android ideas:
A Barbarian Archetype whose Rage represents a malfunction (and maybe waves its arms around and bellows, "DANGER! DANGER!" - or not)
A Brawler Archetype who enjoys blackjack, hookers, and lots and lots of beer
An Alchemist Archetype who, poor misguided thing, wants to become Human
A different Alchemist Archetype who assimilates organic beings
A Druid Archetype who rejects the Romantic "Nature VS. Technology" paradigm, and is dead-set on marrying the two to pave the way for something new

Play on those human racial features!
or an arcanist thats about amalgamizing magic and is wisdom based. Sort of a magical multiculturalist.

@#$* it, driders are statted out with zero-HD versions in the ARG, and so are centaurs. How about a self-mounted cavalier for those guys?
Already linked my old thread upthread, but here is my Drider cavalier racial archetype

Now I can't stop thinking of ideas for archetypes: I'd love to see a slayer with built in two weapon fighting like flurry of blows.
This is what i came up with, I feel I could have done better, but couldn't think of many original ideas for a more battlefield centered trickery, without doing something mundane like giving bonuses to dirty trick maneuvers or something.
For instance I REALLY want to replace shift form with something, probably something cool that let's them beat through illusions and enchantments.

As Bloodline powers default to not useable when not Bloodraging, I'd specify what powers you have access to outside of bloodrage. Expanded spells seems obvious, but what about the Alter Self? From the duration, I assume so.

I KNEW I forgot something special about bloodrage bloodlines. *smacks head*
edit: actually it does not appear that I do, as only I see mention of abilities that happen upon entering blood rage, or instantaneous effects such as growing claws. basically i see more mention of when something can only be done during a bloodrage and not outside of it, except all level 20 powers say this.
regardless, I replaced shape shift, and I enjoy how it changes the class and what it can do.
edit edit: I found the clause on the bloodline area, that is funny considering EVERYTHING says "while bloodraging" or some such other thing.

And so is the HARDENED INTERROGATOR, a hard-boiled Oread detective that will stop at nothing to have justice delivered... or at least get a confession.
I love it! Perhaps the Dodge the Question ability should be renamed Stonefaced, though? lol

@Cthulhudrew: The initial version only had rock puns for ability names, like that or Rock Facts or Between a Rock and a Hard Place.
In Dodge the Question you have: "Intelligence modifier instead of her Intelligence modifier to Bluff, Diplomacy and Intimidate checks." Yu might want to edit that.
Fixed!

I think a sylph witch archetype would be so cool.
I'll go back through, but I'm not remembering seeing Suli in this thread. I'd like to see a Suli something. They already have a neat Magus archetype. How about a blaster Arcanist or a Ranger/Hunter with an elemental companion?
You bring up a solid point with the slayer, I'll remember that, thank you. I eagerly await the Drow Warpiestess. But above all else, have fun with it.
For the sake of the puns, how about a Monkey Goblin Monk?
...The archetype would prooobably have to remove the lawful-only alignment restriction though.
These are my projects while I finish nailing out the Syrinx Alchemist requested quite a few pages ago (I had to scrap the Skinwalker archetype, it ended up being too similar to a Druid archetype, trying to find another angle...)
So, for the following, I'd like to work with you guys if you don't mind!
SULI BLASTER - I have written this archetype TWO TIMES, and scrapped them altogether. The first one was a weird Hadouken-based Arcanist, the next one an Arcanist that could add special effects to Metamagic feats... both felt off. The first had weird interactions between the Hadoukens and the spells, the second one just felt like the same old Admixture blaster but with better metamagic toys. I have one last idea but it involves replacing most of the exploits, if not all, for static abilities. Would that be interesting or would it stifle creativity too much?
DROW WARPRIESTESS - Two questions: gender restriction or not? There's tons of flavor in making one, but I wouldn't want to be so restrictive. Second question: DRIDER OR NOT? It's always an angle, but is the market saturated with it?
SYLPH WITCH - This is already planned out, but any things in particular that inspire this pairing?
MONKEY GOBLIN MONK - I made this thread hoping someone would say Monkey Goblin. I'm thinking about making them monks with no ki, to represent lack of lawfulness. Is the ki-less monk too unappealing now that we have brawlers?
That's about it. Any input appreciated! Will post one of these tomorrow, unless I get a stroke of genius and come up with a good set of abilities to finish the Syrinx.

How about a Halfling archetype that's a master of using the Halfing Sling Staff? It could be a fighter, rogue, slayer, ranger, whatever would fit best. The important part is that it's an expert at using the Halfling racial weapon.
Already been asked! It's gonna be a Gunslinger, but I wanna do these four first.

SYLPH WITCH - This is already planned out, but any things in particular that inspire this pairing?
I kind of pictured her as more of a Fey-touched than a patron-oriented witch. Maybe with a penchant for stealing the breath/voices of her foes.
I'm really excited to see what you've got in mind!

Being able to weave said stolen breath/voices into items would be really cool too, a la Berengiere from Exalted.

Replacing exploits doesn't ever feel good to me as you can't pick up the feat to get more. But if the ability is worth it, then it's not that bad. Go for it.
Hadouken!
Perhaps leave one early exploit (level 1 or 3), then start replacing things? Level 3 seems like the sweet spot to leave, all things considered. But this solves the "can't take Extra Exploit" issue while still balancing things out.

A Drow male can become a Warpriest. However, a Drow female may become exceptional among the order.
I have high hopes for this.
Well I do sure hope you like RAGING WITH A SPELLCASTER BECAUSE BLAUWHGHAHHGAHGHGA
I have tried to do this one for so long I can't even tell if this is good or not. I've never seen an archetype scream for an editor so hard.

That is an extremely cool power. I have to see how I finish this archetype up, but it's basically about taking and giving stuff so this fits perfectly... "spirited away" is the theme.
