[QUOTE="thekwp, post: 6933293, member: 56444"] My party should run The Gauntlet this Wednesday night (see [URL="http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?491814-thekwp-s-War-of-the-Burning-Sky-Unchained"]my campaign thread[/URL]), so I am looking at how I adapt Renard Woodsman and Kathor Danava for a pathfinder conversion for [U]Scouring of Gate Pass[/U]. There are a number of straight forward changes. For example, to maintained their calculated CR, each gets an additional class level. In the conversion over for race as well, each gets an attribute bonus increase of +2. Finally, by getting to 4th level, each gets a single bonus to an individual stat. Renard receives a relatively straightforward conversion, but with one key choice. By getting to 4th level ranger, Renard gets Hunter's Bond: and must choose either hunting companions or an animal companion. I am considering adapting Kathor as a cavalier, rather than a fighter. I am debating if I should make Kathor a sorcerer or a magus, using the eldritch scion archetype. If I choose any bloodline other than arcane, or if I use the eldritch scion magus option, Kathor does not have a familiar. From the perspective of style, I like the idea of Kathor either with the Dreamspun bloodline or the eldritch scion archetype. Kathor's familiar has no in game play impact, but has an impact on the campaign -- it is the method by which Renard and Kathor communicate. Without a familiar, perhaps Renard and Kathor should communicate via messages carried by Renard's animal companion. My impression from looking at the battle is that I do not think giving Renard an animal companion mount will significantly change the encounter. Most of this is important to work out so that the party's latter encounter with Kathor in [U]The Festival of Dreams[/U] has a coherent evolution. It may not matter at all, but I can see where the party might interact enough to remember key things. I hope that Kathor does make enough of an impression to stick in my player's minds eight adventures later. For game masters who have run this in Pathfinder, what did you do? For game masters who ran this in D&D 3.5 but have played Pathfinder since, what choices would you recommend based on your experiences? I'll post up my final conversions, as well as how it goes of course, but would love to get some feedback prior to the actual game. [/QUOTE]
