[QUOTE="Sanglorian, post: 9535548, member: 83822"] Creating characters in Path 2 Victory is so quick and fun I’ve been doing it for some of the Creative Commons-licensed character sketches Bertdrawsstuff makes (see them for yourself [URL='https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Phlcr2KzSRjWj1Ck1iyiE9EUvUhhVdeE?usp=drive_link']here[/URL]). I started with the Duellist: [IMG width="143px"]https://sepulchralverdigris.github.io/path2victory/Character%20cards/Duellist.jpg[/IMG] If we had converted the Swashbuckler to Path 2 Victory yet, that would be a natural place to start, but it looks like rogue or fighter would work too. I decide on rogue, and starting at level 6 allows for a couple of feats in the fighter archetype. Between Fleet, Nimble Dodge, Reactive Strike and Fighter Resiliency, I reckon we have an agile but formidable melee combatant who is particularly dangerous when his enemy is off-balance or surprised. [IMG width="305px"]https://sepulchralverdigris.github.io/path2victory/Character%20cards/Duellist2.PNG[/IMG] --- [IMG width="204px"]https://sepulchralverdigris.github.io/path2victory/Character%20cards/Magehunter.jpg[/IMG] The Mage Hunter proved a bit trickier. Despite the name, he seems to be a magic-user himself - but I haven’t adapted the Magus (and probably won’t until there is an ORC licensed version). One of the advantages of Path 2 Victory characters being so sparse, though, is that a few key choices can really define a character. In this case, maybe Counterspell and the Detective background (i.e., training in Society) is enough to define this character as a “mage hunter”. I give him Light Armor Proficiency to help model a gish, and pick out spells recommended in a “how to make a PF2e gish” guide I found online. [IMG width="338px"]https://sepulchralverdigris.github.io/path2victory/Character%20cards/Magehunter1.PNG[/IMG] --- [IMG width="250px"]https://sepulchralverdigris.github.io/path2victory/Character%20cards/Necromancer.jpg[/IMG] With summon undead a first-level spell for wizards and clerics, I felt spoiled for choice for modelling a necromancer in Path 2 Victory. He does have a wicked-looking dagger (is that held by a third, skeletal arm? Or is it suspended from his belt?), but I thought cloistered cleric was most appropriate - and touch of death will still give him a reason to wade into melee from time to time. Level 2 allowed me to work in Versatile Font, which gives him power over life and death. [IMG width="303px"]https://sepulchralverdigris.github.io/path2victory/Character%20cards/Necromancer1.PNG[/IMG] --- Anyway I hope that inspires you to have a crack at making your own [I]Path 2 Victory [/I]characters. It's very easy and very quick. Next time I'll show some characters made from classes that we haven't published yet - like ranger, barbarian and bard. [/QUOTE]
