The thing is that, in Pathfinder, there is no level adjustment. The closest thing to that is on the Advanced Race Guide. Basically, every racial trait gets a set "score" assigned to it. Core races vary from 8 total race points at it's lowest (Half-orcs) to 11 at it's highest (Those short...

I would advise against this. Just leave them as regular humans (they are versatile enough, you just pick +2 STR and that's done). Alternatively, create a new strong-armed seafaring race, something like a different type of Goliath or something. +2 STR, +2 CON -2 INT seems about right (-2...

You should just get them all at the beginning AND end of your turn (like how you untap your cards in Dungeon Command). If you will only EVER get one reaction per turn, then this is the optimal way to go. If they are planning to give out additional reactions per turn (which I think they...

I wouldn't say that Teleport is a relatively minor problem (if the PCs use it frequently, it really changes the way the DM has to design the campaign) nor would I call adding the line: "This spell has a cool down time of 24 hours" overdesigning, but I see your point and I agree that some fixes...

Well, this is quite true. I like the idea of having the bad guy/s "hiding in hyperspace" to avoid capture, that could be a plot point. There are ways to correct this, however. Teleporting grants one negative level that goes away after 24 hours, but stacks with itself (and the duration gets...

This is a VERY big change to the base game. Let's look at how it might play in-table. When I started reading this, "Character development" sounded more like the rewards would be story-based. For example, spend a couple points and gain a valuable contact, better living conditions, the ability to...

Hey, welcome to Enworld! I would advise against converting the class to PF. Instead, make it an archetype. I would give them Tremorsense on level one and then upgrade it to Blindsight on higher levels. Take away the slow fall or increased speed and you are, more or less, good to go.

We play with the (in-)famous rule of "If you roll a natural 20 on an attack roll, then confirm it with a second 20 you a get a third roll. If that roll is also a 20, you kill the target of the attack, no questions asked". We had that happen TWICE on the same session. The first one, a gestalt...

Plus, Word has spell-check. I wrote the reply while working, and we have IE there.

My default color is white... I've never had this problem before! Does it have anything to do with the fact that I copied it from a Ms Word archive instead of writing it directly here? Can you see this message too? Is this weird hippie sorcerer messing with my mind!? Too many questions...

Take fog cloud and their relatives. They go well with this guy's "hippie" feel and are surprisingly useful. Also look for transmutations. I can see him/her casting Enlarge Person on himself and then going "Duuude... my hands look sooo biiig!"

- Defeat X number of encounters - FLEE X number of encounters (if you want to encourage that type of game) - Research valuable information - Explore unknown area - Further the goals of X organization (again, if that suits your style) - Roleplay amogst one anoher for X amount of time It...

This. Alternatively, you can gather the necessary resources to get yourself resurrected via Raise Dead and instructions to do so at some specified later date, and then let yourself be killed. That way you can justify a strangely long absence. Say, your guy put some plan in motion, but it...

This, basically. I did it like this on a game I DM'ed a while back, only it was a paladin and an elven courve blade. I creates no balance issues, IMO.

I think I saw this thread like 6 months back... weird... Anyway, there is no place that I know of that has these numbers, but check monsters of the appropriate CR and compare those numbers to your PCs. See what are the chances to hit them of the guys with good BAB and you are good to go. 3/4...

No boobs on dragonborn females, for a start. Since that doesn't make any freaking sense! And roll up knowledge History, Engineering, Nobility and Geography into a single "Knowledge: Academics" Skill. But that's more mechanical.

I think something like the Qunari from Dragon Age might be adequate for +STR +INT, but certainly NOT +CHA (They might be +CON or +WIS, though). They are big and strong, similar to goliaths, but they have this strange philosophy that almost everyone agrees to and frequently discuss (and even...

Welcome to the hobby! You are going to have the time of your life! Well, for starters, IMO the best way to start roleplaying is finding an established book. It is SO MUCH easier to get a good grasp on the rules and the general gameplay aspects that way. It will also give you the chance to try...

The main advantage of tier 1 classes is the availability and VIABILITY of different roles within the same class, often simultaneously. Barbarians are really angry guys who take a f*ton of damage before falling and deal a bunch of it within melee range. This is true at level 1, at level 5, at...

As usual, your material is insightful and great fun to read! I do believe that Alacrity as you posted on the OP is a bit broken. I fancy the X+2 version a lot better.
