Isn't she! Nisha wants to cuddle the poor dear!

She deserves a double titty cuddle with Camilla and Nisha! No one could be glum after that :P

Huh, wings. How does that work with the Aasimar? A Fly Speed is never mentioned in that variant, so by RAW, she wouldn't have one. Gliding, perhaps?

God, I remember two of my most evil Builds. One was a Wyvaran Gunslinger Bolt Ace (HAHA MOTHERFUCKERS, RAPID FIRE CROSSBOWS FROM 60 FEET IN THE AIR!) and the other was a Strx Phalanx Fighter who fought with a Reach Polearm and shield whilst flying. Ah, good times. xD

Men in general judge more by the sense of sight than by that of touch, because everyone can see but few can test by feeling. Everyone sees what you seem to be, few know what you really are; and those few do not dare take a stand against the general opinion. Therefore it is unnecessary to have all the qualities I have enumerated, but it is very necessary to appear to have them. And I shall dare to say this also, that to have them and always observe them is injurious, and that to appear to have them is useful; to appear merciful, faithful, humane, religious, upright, and be so, but with a mind so framed that should you require not to be so, you may be able and know how to change to the opposite.

*Whistles innocently*

Linquistic and Lore check passed, either case cool concept even if inspired a much tamer tale ;). However as a idea your char could had 'deformed' into a tengu statically (if not in appearance). In Skulls & Shackles tengus have pivotal role in pirate ships as lucky charms (as they draw all bad luck upon themselves and to their feathers). In racial options it gives gliding as a option if taken and skald favored class bonus is nice (increases daily use of 'can use whatever spell I want').

You my good sir are truly vile... I applaud you! *Claps*

My gunslinger got even more ridiculous! I use the custom weapon building rules, and made a pair of wrist-mounted 1d8 Crossbows, so they could be reloaded without putting the other one away! Get to level 6 with Improved Two Weapon Fighting, and that's like...five shots a turn. xD

Well, in the 1837 tale her tongue is cut out, her feet feel like walking on broken glass but she still dances every night for the Prince, and he casts her aside to die.  So I wouldn't call it tame, although it's frankly some really bad story telling.  The Disney allusions are the much lesser nod. 

Using the Variant Abilities list, #99: You have a natural fly speed of 20 feet (poor).  Definitely implies her wings are maimed, but uses the existing ruleset (and as intended, I think - for divinely-touched beings of alternate racial ancestry)

I was actually going to put her together as a re-fluffed Strix, but the -2 Cha and some other things create a cascade of issues that would have made her fairly unexciting in actual play.

I have done nothing productive all day!

So far we have thus characters:

M Half-Elf Inquisitor of Besmara / M Elf Fighter (Zaer)
F Tiefling Fighter / Human Swashbuckler (Vergil)
F Changeling Witch (Kingmaster)
F Aasimar Cleric of Shelyn (Muse)
M Human Summoner (Changingsaint)
F Skinwalker Vigilante (Kathyan)
M Tiefling Bloodrager (Ziether)
F Aqua Elf Ranger (Ixy)
F Elf Shifter(?) (Re Z El)
F Tiefling magus (RobyntheWitch)
F Human Paladin (Callie)
F Changeling Monk (Hexed)
F Aasimar Skald (Ebadger)

And it's amazing how every game on E becomes swamped in anime pictures. I mean c'mon guys there's art styles out there where people actually have facial features  :P

DEATH! DEATH AND SHUNNING! SHUN!

Though I know there is, but sometimes its what you are looking for, when you want something just out there.

My elf has a beard you know and facial features :P. But as Robyn says; something you want as a pic just happens to be drawn in manga/anime style.

Also as note I did edit into both my sheets a theme music bit (seems most folks added it to their chars so I did likewise).

 @Heady Dionysus: So would The Open Minded Feat be acceptable since it is a third party feat?   

@ Zaer: Yay Theme music!

Eh,  I find it easier to find anime references I like than real people or otherwise 'western' art images.

He, the guy who runs it, is a bit behind.. money issues, but I like it becauce it lists the actual names and shows the PFS compliance

I feel like there's more variety when you stem into the world of drawn pictures. There's so few models or such that can fit certain ideas for a character. Besides, I'm a weeaboo regardless so... :P

Are you calling out animation generally or anime specifically?  As one who can remember when this weird style started popping up between transformers and he-man, I would not equate them.

It's a fantasy system, so drawings tend to be more suitable.  Half orcs, sorcerers with familiars and gillmen are tough to find without hitting the uncanny valley.  I also try to avoid stuff with mental baggage.  I know who Jessica nigri is, for instance, so seeing a pic of her is more likely to stir a debate on quality cosplay v fetishized sex appeal than the written personality.

I thought it was just two traits and one had to be a campaign trait?

Or are you actually taking the feat for them too?
