Pathfinder 1E [Canceled] Pathfinder: Giantslayer

[Guest 11456]

This is the recruitment thread for the Pathfinder: Giantslayer Adventure Path. Only four will be accepted.

[sblock=Character Creation]There are four slots available for this campaign. They follow the basics:
Martial: Fighter, Barbarian, etc.
Skilled: Rogue, Bard, etc.
Divine: Cleric, Druid, etc.
Arcane: Wizard, Sorcerer, etc.

Read more: here


0. Nothing is approved until the DM says so.

1. Each submission will have a unique race created using the 'Race Builder' rules from the Advanced Race Guide using a 15 race point build. Follow the power level as defined in those rules. Your race needs a name (e.g. Beastman).

2. Any class (alchemist, arcanist, barbarian, bard, bloodrager, brawler, cavalier, cleric, druid, fighter, gunslinger, hunter, inquisitor, investigator, magus, monk, ninja, oracle, paladin, ranger, rogue, samurai, shaman, skald, slayer, sorcerer, summoner, swashbuckler, warpriest, witch and wizard). But take note that the basic roles of Martial, Skilled, Divine and Arcane are how the four will be chosen.

3. Any non-evil alignment.

4. Characters get a single campaign trait. Characters may have an additional single non-campaign trait by taking a drawback.

5. Approved source: Archives of Nethys

6. Characters should be created at first level using a 12 point buy.

7. Everyone gets maximum hit points first level. Each additional level will be 3/4 max (round up on even levels and down on odd levels where appropriate). Supporting cast (e.g., animal companions, familiars) use half max each level after first.

8. Minimum starting gold. That means that: The cavalier, fighter, gunslinger, paladin, ranger, slayer, swashbuckler and warpriest get 50gp. The cleric, hunter, inquisitor, magus, ninja, and rogue get 40gp. The alchemist, barbarian, bard, bloodrager, brawler, investigator, oracle, samurai, shaman, skald and witch get 30gp. The arcanist, druid, sorcerer, summoner and wizard get 20gp. The monk gets 10gp.

9. Show all your work (e.g. 'Str: 16 +3 (5 points, +2 racial)'). Use the following format for character sheet submittal.

[CanadienneBacon]

I plan to submit a melee combatant. Either barbarian, bloodrager, or a paladin.

 

[Kaodi]

I do not have a name or a definite description yet, but I am looking at creating an insectoid character that is a Small Monstrous Humanoid with -2 Str, +2 Dex, +2 Wis, Standard Language, Lesser Defensive Training (Giant), Fearless, Natural Armour, Climb, Gliding Wings, Fast, Bite, and Swarming.

 

[kinem]

I thinking of making a Town Giant (large race) magus or warpriest.

edit: I'm making a warpriest.

 

[Shayuri]

I have a notion to make a kind of secretive, quasi-nocturnal halfling-type people, with my character being either a summoner or a sorceror. Right now I'm kind of liking the summoner idea.

I'll look at some stats and see if it makes me happy when it's more concrete.

 

[isidorus]

I am thinking of a beast man witch

Appearance: At age 77, Soikka is on the younger side for a Hiisi, a barbaric race of monstrous humanoids with stunted magical abilities from the Mindspin Mountains. Hiisi lifespans rival those of dwarves. Soikka is stout. Scars map his upper torso, face, and limbs. He isn't pretty. He isn't kind. Women don't like him, but that's okay, as he has little use for them.

Background: War has a way of masking greed with feats of bravery. The Hordeline was no different. Trunau is no different. Trunau, perched prettily atop Bloodmarch Hill, occupies what used to be the tribal land of Clan Stonesinger. When humans, orcs, and giants flooded south through Lastwall, the Clan succumbed to diaspora, its ragged remnant spread far and wide.

Soikka is one such member of that diaspora. And, like all those whose lands were usurped by the Hordeline, Soikka yearns for repatriation. For reparation. The Trunau Standing Vow means something different to Soikka than it does for the human members of Trunau; for him, it is not a call to defend the paltry human settlement atop Bloodmarch Hill, but the cry and hew of stone that calls him home to rock and dale.

Soikka isn't a native of Trunau, but he comes there from time to time to trade, pick up regional gossip, and do odd jobs in winter when the weather turns sour. He comes because he cannot stay away. Because he knows, in his marrow, that Bloodmarch Hill is home. Drink has long provided Soikka reprieve from cold winters and bitterness. What drink giveth, however, it taketh away; Soikka is paranoid. He likes few, trusts no one, and is prone to rage. Well. You would be, too, if you were a homeless drunk.[/sblock][/sblock] [/section]

I'm thinking of trying a brawler.

Appearance:
Anton Gallo is a muscular young town giant.

Background:

Anton felt called to do something special, even if he wasn't sure exactly what. He served at several temples, finally deciding that his real service should be providing spiritual and physical protection to those who need it, rather than serving a specific god. In search of his true calling, he left the civilized lands and travelled through the orc-torn land of Blekzen. Arriving in Trunau, he found the town's defiant attitude much to his liking.

[isidorus]

I should be finished tomorrow night. Using Hero lab and then I put into the required format.

Am I limited to witch patrons in APG or can I use Ultimate magic ones to?

Thanks
