Hello all. I am seeking two or maybe three players to join an existing group to begin the module Malevolence where the players are hired to investigate a creepy mansion in an isolated abandoned town on the coast.
I have run a group through Fall of Plaguestone and three wish to continue. Currently the group has a Human Duskwalker Oracle (rebuilt from a cleric), a Dwarven Rogue and a Halfling Monk. Characters that can bring something new to the table and compliment the group would have an edge.
Characters would be third level. The posting rate wouldn't be the most fast paced but it's a good group.
Hello All!
I am interested in playing Malevolence. I have plenty of PF2e experience. Completed FoPS, AoA and in final chaper of EC.
How long would you allow some research? I would like to think of a fitting concept.
October and Malevolence sounds spooky fun!
Thank you for running.
So, I am reading and this hook caught my attention. Thinking an aspiring Signifier Hellknight wants to reclaim the House for the Order.
Ancestry?
Class Warpriest or Magus.
I'm interested, but need a little time to think.
Hmm... This might be the place for my half-gnome fighter.
Niven has long flowing purple hair, a nicely trimmed goatee, pointed ears. He's carrying a godawful contraption with spikes and hammerheads and clockwork gears that no sane person would pick up, let alone fight with. Your immediate thought is that he's a gnome.
Except that he's nearly six foot and filled out with a decent amount of muscle.
@Crusaderwolf Malevolence is just one book, the party will level up once or twice. A thaumaturge could work, I have yet to see one in play. Free archetype is interesting but we aren't doing it for this campaign.
@Dorian Grey-Certainly at least two weeks. As an Arminger they might just be thinking of letting him get some experience in this odd experience. Reclaiming it for the order might be a harder sell... working with an aspiring hell knight is easier than working for the order.
@Philo-Seems interesting. If you wanted to lean into the fey ancestry part of the gnomes you could simulate it with taking something like a multiclass archetype for druid or a sorceror with primal spells. Just an idea. Just a notion not sure how optimal it would be.
Agreed. I am thinking that his ego has more to do with it than the Order...lol.
Researching Magus. I need Heavy Armor Proficiency, so Sentinel Dedication at 2nd seems likely, as it increases as his class Proficiency does. Much better than just taking General feat.
Thinking sword and board melee. Arcana, Occultism and Athletics will be his primary skills.
I am working on his Profile.
@Philo-Seems interesting. If you wanted to lean into the fey ancestry part of the gnomes you could simulate it with taking something like a multiclass archetype for druid or a sorceror with primal spells. Just an idea. Just a notion not sure how optimal it would be.
Oh, I was thinking more of the gnomish martial style with gadgets and interesting tactics. If I do go with an archetype it's going to be gunslinger or inventor. Though I'll have to balance that with fighter options to trip and shove and control things like that.
And he'll have a very gnomish attitude with the bravado ad joy de vivre.
This is Dorian Grey's work in progress.
The Crunch should be ready. The Fluff is still rolling about in my head. I shall knock it out and onto his Profile probably today....football...lol.
Here is Philo's work. I'll add more background shortly.
But I do have a Picture. The only issue is that his gun doesn't have all the fancy bits.
Everything looks quite interesting so far.
Given a gnome and a half gnome character there could always be a connection between the two?
I'm up for this. How about being brothers? (technically half-brothers, but Niven wouldn't focus on the half part)
Oh, he's going to admit that he has the best of both worlds. Except for the eyes. He'll have an issue when anyone thinks him lesser due to his hybrid heritage.
So do you want to be older or younger? And do you have a preference to which parent we have in common? Mother or father?
Little brother works well. I see him as the kind who would let you run free but keep a good watch. He's the kind who will let you try to talk us out of the trouble you talked us into but be ready to take more decisive action when needed. After all, being a little out of touch with reality has literally given you magical power.
At least some of the time would have been in Alkenstar, but we could have traveled to or from there if you need some other influences.
It would make sense that I learned about guns and alchemy as you were growing, and then as you began showing your powers we went for a place with more potential to let you explore this and train up your skills.
That sounds great; I made a draft profile for him here.
Sorry I had some technical issues the last few days still we have three completed characters so no difficult choice for me.
Feel free to dot and say hello to the other players. https://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75ivksu/discussion&page=last
