This will be a true one off adventure. the party's collective "palette cleanser", if you will.
Yes, the adventure is 20 years old. penned in a dungeon magazine from the crazy days that 3.0 was transforming into 3.5.
this game is primarily meant for my group from the ROTR campaign we are participating in, but i am open to allowing one more player
character creation rules:
PF1 character rule set
1st level
max HP
Max starting gold
3 traits
background skills are to be used
since this is a true palette cleanse type of adventure, let's do something funky with character class selection and stat generation.
Only Hybrid classes are allowed @loxley, you cant be an arcanist. you gotta be something else.
you have to select your class first.
dice rolls: roll 3d6+6, in order. single roll. whatever you roll is what you get for that stat. yes, even if you roll 3 ones for a total of 9. but, that also means you have the potential for a base 24! so thats fun!
Super intrested, I think you mean we select class before seeing rolls, if that’s the case I’m going with skald
Consistently pretty good! Moving forward with the skald for now
Let's make it a shaman.
I was thinking of trying a Slayer this time around. Never played one before. :D
Is there any racial restrictions?
yeah, I'm curious about the race options for the game.
Bloodrager

Could we do something funky with races?
LA +0, or LA +1 templates / races?-----
Warpriest (Sacred Fist).
This seems like it would be fun.
Well with that rolled I would say a Dwarven Warpriest of Trudd "The Mighty" would be in order.
i knew i was missing something. always forget something when it comes to character generation.
For races: nothing that requires race points.
1) Do we know what the rest of the party look like?
not yet...until Corrin, Yeda, Zel, sazzat, and loxley post their final decisions.
Are we good guys, or just sort-of good guys in this adventure.
My ideas keep ending up in the anti-hero category.

An anti-hero is fine

So, no custom races, gotcha,
but that doesn't answer the question below

...
Can I get an answer please, as I have a few ideas that use a template.
Kitsune Arcanist or Kitsune Swashbuckler . . . hmmm
Kitsune Arcanist or Kitsune Swashbuckler . . . hmmm
Yeda votes for magic fox :)
Kitsune Arcanist it is then! Cant upset yeda
Can we use archtypes?

Not following. Care to explain?
I’m intrigued and have always wanted a reason to try something odd. I’ll go investigator, I’ll give it a go and see what I get.
Is there any background to the adventure to work off of for character gen?

For races you only mentioned no RP races, So that implies No custom races using RP, but that doesn't cover templates as they never used RP.
Since templates hardly ever see use and were interesting in the 3.X days, and this adventure is from the 3.X days, I thought I'd hearken back some to those days with an idea that uses a template.
As when I do tend to use templates, run idea that are counter in a way with the character.
First Idea:
Template: Fey-Touched
Counter: Fey don't worship gods, and yet is a member of the cloth, Template offers little and is LA/CR +0 for characters under level 5
Second Idea:
Template: Half-Succubus
Counter: A half-demon worshiping a good aligned god, Template's major stat boost is in a stat that is not used by the warpriest, most of SLAs in the template if she got high enough in level she'd would avoid using at all costs.
The last counter Idea:
Template: Half-Nymph Dragon Magazine #313
Counter: Fey don't worship gods, and yet is a priestess, Template is LA +2, but the main ability is specialized against humnoids, and the class can not reap the full benefits of the template with the +4 Cha going to waste
I was thinking Kitsune Slayer.
I haven't been able to decide if I was gonna use an archetype. I'd have to have some kind of idea of what we'd be facing. :p
Wouldn't wanna choose a Grave Warden and end up not running into any undead.
RM's Existing Players & Concepts
Corrin - Kitsune Arcanist
Yeda - (race?) Shaman
Zel -
Sazzat - (race?) Bloodrager
Loxley - Kitsune Slayer
@RizzenMagnus: if Zel selects a class that an applicant selects prior to rolling, would we be able to rebuild our application with another class?
I am thinking a Ratfolk Investigator.
party is looking a little furry
Nah Kitsunes have a human only form :P
I am thinking about a Werebear-kin skinwalker Bloodrager with the shapechanger bloodline.
i thought you should play a trashpanda with a human familiar
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |

I'll +1,000,000 this

** spoiler omitted **
Or you could play the same class, which is fine to do as well.
But yeah, you can change your class if you want, thats fine.
Is there any background to the adventure to work off of for character gen?
It takes place in the middle of nowhere on Golarian.
Thats all everyone gets.

Ahhhhhh yes. those templates.

If Raccoon was a legit race.

That’s vague and awesome I’m hooked.
If Raccoon was a legit race.
Hmmm...could make it an awakened raccoon. Inparted with self wareness by nature, a bad wizard experiment, or reincarnation.
Here is PaleDim's kitsune shaman. Still needs equipment. Spirit animal is linked on his profile.
Vanara Brawler(Strong Side Boxer):
Hmmm...could make it an awakened raccoon. Inparted with self wareness by nature, a bad wizard experiment, or reincarnation.
So you're saying there's a chance .....
Hmmm...could make it an awakened raccoon. Inparted with self wareness by nature, a bad wizard experiment, or reincarnation.So you're saying there's a chance .....
here, let's try this.
size: Tiny
str: -2
Dex: +4
Con: +2
Int: +0
Wis: +0
Cha: +0 (special)
HP: d4 (this supersedes class HD)
Special: people either like or hate racoons, depending on the circumstance that they interact with the racoon. A +4/-4 bonus is applied to all social interactions, depending on a 50/50 roll. If the roll is low, the person immediately dislikes the racoon character and the -4 charisma modifier is applied. if the roll is high, then a +4 modifier is applied.
inherent Skill bonuses:
CLimb: +4
Escape artist: +4. (racoons have been known to think a space is large enough to fit through, and have become stuck. Any failed escape attempt causes the Racoon to be stuck and will need assistance being released.)
sleight of hand: +4
survival: +4 Racoons can eat just about anything, and will be able to find food for itself in practically any condition.
The is The nines also known as Corrin Whisperwind.
Yehoku will be my Kitsune Arcanist. :)
And now the male kitsune pics are used up :P The others will have to get creative.
the usual suspects:
Yeda: Toshi Noboru
Corrin: Yehoku
Zel:
Sazzat: werebear bloodrager? or perhaps a racoon?
Loxley: kitsune slayer?
the potentials:
me'mori: Vanara Brawler(Strong Side Boxer)
rhmg animator: something?
Bromdel stalebrim: dwarven warpriest
I'll be withdrawing
so divine and arcane are wrapped up, as is meat-shield/front-liner. slayer brings a bit of rogue, so I think that's all our bases covered.
Random idea for the newcomers: a ratfolk investigator named Inspector Feta Crumbs. He looks down on other rats who favor lesser cheeses.
Mythicman's submission for the adventure, Half Elfven Investigator ready to rock.
He isn't a ratfolk investigator but he should do to help where he can.

Thats a gouda joke...
I hear the ratfolk have taken over limburg, and have turned blue from exposure. I hope they find a cottage to survive in.
I should have my submission, a ratfolk investigator done by the morning.
