As to race, I was sure that someone would have already suggested rogue modron. The round body and single manipulative appendage fits nicely.

Would a poll be appropriate to determine interest in a seperate Pathfinder forum or sub-forum? I may very well be in the minority, but I'm at least as interested in Pathfinder as 4e, and it would be convenient if all related posts had their own place.

Champions, anyone?

Agreed. And each post will be required to use the word "cool" at least twice. :D

Hi again, Frukathka Reveille. :heh: I haven't had much free time lately, but I've got this thread bookmarked for when I do. :) I just (re)read the Ranger class carefully. (I scanned it quickly a few times previously.) I really appreciate the added depth you're adding to the classes...

Hi Bladesong. Thanks for the interest! I was suprised by your suggestion. Usually, I see people post documents, and then replies requesting that the text be posted instead, rather than vice versa. I do have each "kit" (or whatever they should be called ;) ) in a seperate Word doc. I can...

Hi Arkhandus, thanks for the feedback. I should have noted that I wrote these up back in the early 3e days. Power creep due to splatbooks was at a minimum. And my intention wasn't to "power up" the fighter (who wasn't generally recognized as being too weak at the time) but only to provide...

I had planned on a bunch more. I think I still have my notes in hardcopy. Here are some more examples: Guard/Defender Highlander Marine Mercenary/Soldier Thrower/Hurler Berserker/Rager Assasin/Slayer Stalker/Marauder

Here is a general description of these "subclasses": WARRIOR CLASSES Skill in battle is the mark of the warrior, but individual fighters vary widely in the tools of war they employ and in the techniques they master. The warrior classes each represent a particular warrior archetype, with a...

Grappler (Grr) Grapplers are masters of unarmed combat. A grappler is defined first and foremost by his combat ability. Individual grapplers may have sharply divergent backgrounds. A grappler might learn to fight as part of rigorous training in a religious or philosophical tradition that...

Brawler A brawler is a warrior who resorts to his fists as often as to a drawn weapon. The typical brawler is the quintessential street tough or bar-fighter. A brawler may also be a pugilist who regards boxing as a science, or a martial artist who specializes in a ‘hard’ style that focuses on...

Archer (Arr) An archer wields his bow to devastating effect, usually while fighting afoot. Human archers tend to hale either from settled lands where a free yeomanry is required to train regularly with the bow to fulfill an obligation of service to the local militia, or from the hinterlands...

Slinger (Slr) A slinger wreaks havoc among his enemies with the deadly accuracy of his missiles. Human slingers often come from the outlands, where the sling is used both in hunting small game and in protecting flocks from predation. In the hands of one skilled in its use, the sling also...

Sharpshooter (Shr) A sharpshooter is an expert crossbowman, capable both of a sustained rate of fire and deadly accuracy with his chosen weapon. Human sharpshooters generally acquire their proficiency with the crossbow either from hunting or from military training. But crossbows are common...

Samurai (Sai) The samurai is the warrior ideal of the land of his birth, a master of melee combat, the martial arts, horsemanship and archery. Like the knight, the samurai belongs to a warrior caste of martial nobility. The typical samurai serves a noble of higher rank with fanatical...

Knight (Knt) Astride his warhorse, thickly clad in heavy armor and bearing lance and shield, the knight is the ultimate heavy cavalryman; few can withstand his thunderous advance. Knights are usually members of the martial nobility, trained from early youth in the use of armor, melee weapons...

The Classes - Core Four + Prestige thread reminded me of these. They were written as a sort of equivalent to 2E Kits, before the Alternate Class Feature mechanic was fleshed out by WOTC. I didn't want to threadjack, so I'm posting them seperately. I only ever fully detailed a few, but here...

Makes sense, thanks. ;)

Instead of using cleric, fighter, rogue, and wizard as the "basic" classes, it might make more sense to start with something like the generic classes from Unearthed Arcana. That way, you wouldn't be "stuck" (as much) with vestigial abilities from your first 5 character levels. For example, a...

Dawnblade--- I've never really had much use for the Duskblade, so I was prepared to be (relatively) non-plussed. However, the Song of the Rising Suns and Power of the Rising Suns abilities put this one out of the park for me. They're a nice poetic nod to the name of the campaign and to the...
