Is class level 20, or are the mythic levels counted as class level as well?
Disclaimer (WIP)
English isn't my native language. I'm deeply rooted in a culture with significantly different (much more direct) communcation strategies than typical for the extremely polite british or canadian cultures, or the "optimistic" approach often used in the USA. Additionally, I'm not neurotypical in several ways, warping my perception and communication to an even further degree.

But: my english is JUST good enough to lull many readers into a false sense of security. Think of it as the communicative equivalent to "false friends words" which, while extremely similar in outward appearance in two languages, mean something slightly but importantly different. Like "I want to become a steak" makes perfect sense to a german... that still would prefer not to be butchered.

So please, if you perceive my words as rude, my intentions as unemotional or just weird: ask me. I'm not always successful in my attempts to correctly guess the fluff and embellishments needed for successful communication. Not in my native german tongue, much less so in english. Please do not interpret them as bad intent, but feel free to ask for clarifications. I'll try my best to solve such misunderstandings, and learn to prevent them.

0-0 I think I might be switching to playing a monster. :3

Though Question Zaer: Can I take the demonic vermin template if I'm playing a Jorogumo since it makes my gal technically half spider?

Normally no, because Jorogumo is shapechanger who can turn into spider or hybrid form (sort like werewolf). Werewolf does not qualify for pure animal templates either.

However I can allow if you enter universal monster tier system, you could take one tier the ability assume any single subtype as shapechanger (basically able be treated having said subtype but not it's traits as having vermin subtype turns you mindless but it would allow spells or items which work only on vermin apply to you if you so desire). By through taking that opens up able to take vermin templates on yourself (so you sort gained template after mythic tier gain basically speaking). It's not that you become vermin but as shapechanger you mimic having as one.

Could someone with more knowledge (pathfinder) than me have a look at this VERY much WIP char sheet?

Do you see some glaring errors (all the mythic stuff, skills, equipment isn't there yet though) or have important suggestions? Does VMC bard, wizard or magus make sense?

Would that allow for becoming subtypes other than vermin or is it solely for being treated as having the vermin subtype? :3

I have a question; would it be permissible to have a legendary item in the form of a AMF+5 that allows the bearer to strike the incorporeal, makes them immune to fire damage, and conveys a version of the Burn ability (Elder Fire Elementals) but with some sort of HD/MR/or legendary item scaling instead of the static values?

Burn
Burn (Ex)

A fire elemental deals fire damage in addition to damage dealt on a successful hit in melee. Those affected by the burn ability must also succeed on a Reflex save or catch fire, taking the listed damage for an additional 1d4 rounds at the start of its turn. A burning creature can attempt a new save as a full-round action. Dropping and rolling on the ground grants a +4 bonus on this save. Creatures that hit a burning creature with natural weapons or unarmed attacks take fire damage as though hit by the burning creature and must make a Reflex save to avoid catching on fire (see Burn universal monster ability for complete details.)

Is it too late to throw my hat in?

Not really unless you work fast enough :)

I say it's treated specifically 'pick subtype and mimic' sort tier advantage in tier 1. In tier 3 could pick two subtypes and in tier 6 three. So you do not get vermin subtype traits but otherwise are treated to have vermin subtype if you want to have it (example while taking spider or hybrid form but none while human or only as spider form). Ofc where you apply said subtype you get the demonic vermin template perks.

I say that it's possible but with artifact it would be fixed. I say it's elder elemental if you take final upragde on tier 6 but it can be made ignore resistances (but not immunity). Or thematically call it 'soul burning' ability so it does from start untyped 2d10 dmg (basically untyped dmg which functions like fire in other effects, including dousing or smothering fire out).

Btw, is below Sarn's approach for investigations and such? Or late evening stroll in town (was meant link much earlier but only now got time do it);

In that case I'd better get to work. I'm thinking a Rakshasa Maharaja.

Solid base monster pick :)

It's got a bit of everything: fighting, spellcasting and shapeshifting. Yes, please.

Lockepick

I almost went Rakshasa! My character actually has the Rakshasa bloodline too. Should be neat! <3
Like what you see? I am currently looking for new plots!

Detailed List of O/Os and Plot Seeds

All of my image links were previously photobucket and broken -- I'm fixing them as I use the avatars again, or for current games. Please let me know if there is something that needs updating!

Hmmm *floats, sitting crosslegged, thinking*

you know, good male char pics are tough to find as compared to sexy girls :3

That's quite true actually. So not surprised 90% guild members are women :P. Cool, scary and awesome but none the less women.

Snake

Well I just have the one I feel fits the most. I was looking for a little more updated one. Oh well.




Snake

Zaer, that was actually his original look. That I used. :P



I'm using this one. it's awesome

Zaer Darkwail

Huh?! Those two are same guy? Did not know XD

Snake

Demon Yusuke comes in two versions;the white hair version when his ancestral father possesses him

And his own normal black hair look

Fixed is fine, but can we maybe set it higher than 22? Untyped is fine as well of course. King of damages. XD

Heh. Not really to be fair. Yang is pretty playful and chatty even when shes fighting, except when shes mad then she goes all screaming fire. Sarn has a similar personality when shes just relaxing or looking for abit of fun, but her fighting style is radically different from Yangs. Less screaming flying angrypunches and more... rip and tear.

So more like this;

always a good music to fight to  *grin*

I think I've got my char down pat. though I may work on a private lair in the Keep. Or invest most of it in my cohort. Gotta have a loyal sidekick that's totally hot to trot for you XD. Since more than likely our egos will prevent PC x PC action XD

ChaoticSky

*points to her sheet and whistles innocently*

Ego isnt something mine is overly consumed by :P
