So the question is, if we're having an old lady iconic in Occult Adventures, who's it gonna be? I'd put my money on it being either the Spiritualist or the Psychic. IIRC we've already been told the kineticist will be a woman, but I think fragile, aching bones would be rather counter to the class's flavor and mechanics.

Wasn't their a preview somewhere of the iconic psychic? I recall that character as being a young Vudrani woman.

While I don't believe we have revealed the genders of any of the unrevealed iconics, it is worth noting our policy for gendered pronouns in class descriptions...
As he stirs up speculation...mwahahaha

Damnit. Lem's always coming up with good examples of why I should put more ranks into Perception. Anyone see a snarky little halfling with a stab-wish lurking around these parts? No? Wellllll... TWO can play at the lurking game!
*hides better than Lem!*

Ah an older woman, that's good. I imagine it was getting rather scandalous for Ezren hanging around with so many scantly clad young ladies of the adventuring profession rather then ones his own age.
Why, hadn't you heard? Ezren's the Most Interesting Man in the World. Women flock to him.

He can speak fluent Elven... in Draconic.

You bring up a very good point. I retract my statement, and in retrospect having the kineticist be in the Toph age range would be fantastic.

*goes to playtest document*
*scans each class for gender identifiers*
*comes up with list*
Kineticist—she—female
Medium—he—male
Mesmerist—he—male
Occultist—he—male
Psychic—she—female
Spiritualist—she—female
We already have the sketches of the occultist and the psychic, so either the kineticist or spiritualist could be an elderly female character.

I'd love to see a powerful old woman as an iconic, a la Flemeth from Dragon Age, The Queen of Thorns from Game of Thrones, or Mother Talzin from Clone Wars. Someone who could have fireside chats with Ezren.. "Some more tea, my dear? Now, you're gonna let me have that scroll of Limited Wish, or I could tell everyone about the time you lost all your clothes betting on those silly gladiators in the Free City.."

Woo! Sedentary kineticist ftw!
