A World Torn Asunder/The Dregs of MercTown (Pathfinder) - LGBTQA Friendly

(gets tripped and lands in MercTown)  UUmm... oh hey all.  (stands up and brushes self off hiding embarrassment)

Stating interest!  Very interesting world!  I will go melee heavy class. :)  Leaning towards an elf, which I understand is not one of the more popular races in this world.

I can be okay with that, hmm the Trapper does look promising  but So does the Transporter and fits with the concept. Are you allowed to take more then one Archetype as long as  neither change or remove the same ability? Also how would you explain  having spells one level and not having them the next? Cause at level 4 it has a zero in it but that means you still get bonus spells per day  and it says you get spell casting ability at 4th level but the trapper removes the spells at 5th level.

Do you have a link to what you're looking at? I'd have to see. Normally you should get spells most levels unless you switched classes to another that wouldn't have spells or get's them later.

Hello Key, and you're correct. Elves have a history in this world that is largely undeserved... what with Killing the Dragons, Not feeding people in a plague and fighting a war with another country that did a massive amount of damage. But the Lizard Tribes aren't well loved for that last one either since they were trying to destroy the elves.

Those are the two.

Also I am having some inspiration to expand the concept a bit possibly, How do you feel about the vigilante class?

Yeah, totally undeserved reputation!!  I mean, we had to focus on ourselves first!  And the dragons were trying to kill us!  The spell wasn't actually meant to kill them, just an unfortunate mistake!  The LIzardkind started the war, we were just defending ourselves!

Although, I would make my elf an outcast of the elves, which is why she is in MercTown and not in the elven forest. :)

Both are interesting classes and the Vigilante would be a perfect individual in this setting, but just be warned if you go this route some of their abilities might not be useful in a dungeon or the forest. :)

I can only dangle plot ideas in front of the party, it's up for you guys to see which railroad you end up on.

Welcome to the fun Keyotess!

So you can have two archetypes?
I am Aware I am looking at  the Vigilante class more for fluff reasons and getting some social skills that would with the concept.

If you mean you can be multiple classes then yes. :) You can. I frequently do Rogue Fighters for some builds or Ranger Druids. It's really up to you how you see your class. It's when you start adding in 3 or 4 that I start to arch an eyebrow. Because generally I've seen not much good come out of stuff like that.

[Marie Reynolds]

I know I can Multi-class but Archetypes are modifications to the ranger class for the two that I am interested in.

I found the answer to my question in the rules on archetypes. Now are you okay with stacking archetypes as a gm? Also here are the rules on it.

Apologies. According to Paizo you can take multiple archetypes as long as the abilities you lose do not overlap and you must take all abilities.

So for instance if you picked two rogues, I go back to rogues cause they're my go to class, and both archetypes say to lose disable device you can't use that. Essentially what I'm thinking is when you pick an archetype that drops out an ability your class becomes that specialized archetype.

I've never had anyone ask me so I'm not 100% certain why you'd want this. But VT is the more game mechanic heavy of the two of us.

 It ties into She choose to abandon spell casting to blend in easier to support a cause from the shadows while moving unnoticed in normal Society.

That I understand. Can't stand finger wiggling myself. **Sniffs** Never trust a mage.

But seriously, the Vigalante is a base class according to the link you sent me. And the Trapper would be a ranger archetype. So I might be missing something. :( Sorry.

[Marie Reynolds]

I also plan to take the Transporter Archetype as well.

[Vergil Tanner]

@Marie:

Yeah, I've built a few Vigilantes. All you need to do is get your head around the "Two Identities" thing, and they can be pretty cool to Roleplay as. They get some interesting gadgets as well!


Key:
And welcome, Key! An Elven Fighter?! Have fun with that -2 Con!
I mean...historically speaking, the Elves aren't popular, but it seems that they are VERY popular in this game! xD In any case, can't wait to see what you come up with! Barb? Fighter? Warlord? THE POSSIBILITIES ARE - well, not endless, but they're large!

[keyotess]

Thanks Vergil and Marie!

Looking at possibilities right now. :)

Hmm...Warlord?  Is that a prestige class?

[Vergil Tanner]

What kind of fighter were you thinking of? Sword and board? Two handed? What sort of thing did you see her doing? Going berserk and fucking everybody over, or hunkering down behind armour and weathering the storm? Did you want a basic fighter, or a class with some bells and whistles?

Also, no. Warlord is a Third Party Class. Gimme a sec.

[Marie Reynolds]

@Keyotess You are Welcome!

@ Vergil I have a good idea of  the secret identity goals and Motivations the name  and appearance I have not nailed down yet.

@ Everyone, Any wants to make back ground ties with a Half-orc Smuggler/trap maker please feel free to hit me up  while i build her.

[Vergil Tanner]

Path of War Warlord.

I had a Half Orc Warlord once...aah, Grikzar Sandstampah. I miss you. I could send you his Sheet, if you want, to give you a taste xD

[Kathyan]

Hi Jet, I'm interested and it seems you're lacking frontliners so I'll be tossing one here

[keyotess]

@Vergil:  Hmmm...how well did you find Grikzar stack against other fighters?

[Vergil Tanner]

He had a war Rhino and an AC of like...26. xD I'll send you his sheet, but I find that as a Frontline Tank, he weathered a lot of big hits fairly well, and gave his mates some useful buffs. Small stuff, but can really make the difference in a tight  spot. I shall give you the sheet now!
