MCU's Gorr character build advice

[Ravingdork]

He can teleport, summon monsters, and fight well with a sword in hand whilst practically naked.

How might you build such as a character? I'm thinking a fighter multiclassed into psychic.

Laughing Shadow Magus would work. It even has shadow in its name! The focus spell fits really well, fight onehanded with a sword, you even get a speed bonus when fighting unarmored. You can also pick up some summoning spells (which will be far from optimal but thats pretty much generally the case with summoning spells). Though you could just spellstrike with telekinetic projectile and use your slots for summons. You could even fit in the psychic multiclass as that one is pretty great for magus.

fighter Multiclassed into psychic is an idea, but you will be able to teleport a lot less and have less spellslots for summoning.

I do think if you want to summon monsters you have to be a caster as the first class. Summons demand a top-level slot to be useful which multiclassing doesn't grant you.

[Ravingdork]

Based on what I saw in T:L&T, the summonedonsters were largely a secondary concern, always intended to restrain, delay, or harry foes.

[Onkonk]

Yup, and that is what summons are pretty good at doing, if you use a top level slot for them.

Hitting an enemy and using Grab is a good use of a summon but if not used with a top level slot the chance to hit is so abysmal they can be entirely ignored by enemies.

Black Tentacles would also be a great spell for a Gorr character to make liberal use of.

I was thinking Bones Oracle for Gorr. I am really tempted to build him for upcoming SoT game.
Thought it would be funny having Gorr the God Butcher attending Hogwarts...lol.

Could you elaborate?

That...that makes a lot of sense!

I actually have been researching most of the day.
Only two Ancestries make it doable: Orc and Skeleton. Skeleton (Orc) more precisely, taking As in Life feat for Orc.
I believe those nice Ferocity feats will be needed.
I really haven't gotten to far because have been stomped on Armor class issues.
I realize Sentinel is the common route but doesn't feel like Gorr at that point.
Not certain if MC monk will help....nope.
Really would like a way to increase unarmored without waiting for Sentinel late.
Plus, the necrosword is problematic.

Making a melee Oracle is difficult unarmed. MADD certainly, as Str, Dex, Con and Cha.
I think doable but really painful for quite awhile...
....challenges are interesting fun!

I will keep working on it. I want it to work.
