[QUOTE="Naoki00_, post: 6179318, member: 99243"] Hello all, I'm making a character for a campaign starting in a week or two, but I'm having a terrible time figuring out how to actually even build the type of character I want. We're using pathfinder and the SRD wiki for it has nearly everything possible to have I think so sources shouldn't be too much an issue, and while I'd like to stick to straight pathfinder some 3.5 material might be swingable too. The character concept I first thought of was a 'storm mage', someone who controlled or manipulated the forces of lightning, wind, and sound to defeat foes or even so much as just use the wind to push stuff around and distract people. The problem I'm running into is that the character is meant to primarily be a caster of sorts, but all the casters sans the druid who is of course in a niche of it's own, are so entirely devoted to the idea of "all spells" that picking up just things like lightning bolt and such would run out very fast and not work like hoped, even the stormborn sorceror bloodline was rather underwhelming, only doing something cool maybe once a day, then finally another cool thing at lv 15, way too late for it to seem really worth the wait...I admit I'm not much a 'caster' player, and I like class meat more then just "oh look I can cast a single 4th level spell now!". I'm asking the people of the forums if I might need to just give up the looking, have already pasted up gold in the wiki, or if there is in fact a way to craft a fun and versitile lightning blasting, storm calling specialist mage. Feel free to ask for more information, since I wasn't sure what might needed providing upfront, and will happily elaborate on anything I missed. [/QUOTE]
