Party Dynamic and Character Creation

EDUCATION!

Sorry, guys, I thought Toshi was all set but then I hit a bit of a snag there. It's not such a big deal, but definitely a bit of a change in concept. So it seems I can't finesse a kusarigama nor a Kyoketsu shoge (both two-handed weapons). I could easily just go wakizashi but that feels kinda meh to me. So being catfolk I'll just go with the natural weapons. So I chose Cat's Claws to replace Natural Hunter (and removed the associated skill bonuses) and also changed my chosen manifestation for Catfolk Exemplar from to Sharp Claws instead of Enhanced Senses.

Furthermore, I'm changing my Ninja Trick: instead of Bleeding Strike I'm taking Vicious Claws (roll d8's for sneak attack damage but only when performing SA with your claws).

So with his claws now his main melee weapons (I assume these can be finessed!) he's ditching all weapons except his kunai and maybe a longer ranged weapon (I'm still picking ).

Tekko-Kagi as a secondary weapon would've been awesome and thematically appropriate, but it's an exotic weapon so I would have to burn a feat slot for that, right? :-(

How many feats does a 3rd level ninja get? I only put one: Catfolk Exemplar (which then grants him the Aspect of the Beast feat as a bonus).

Yeah, Tekko-Kati require EWP.

You have 2 feats at level 3, not counting what your class provides.

It seems I was mistaken: Catfolk Exemplar does NOT grant Aspect of the Beast as a bonus feat - it merely qualifies you to take the feat even if you don't meet the normal requirements. So ok, assigning Aspect of the Beast to my 2nd feat slot.

Putting in NPCs while I wait for everyone to post.

The tarrasque can totally have class levels, right guys?


...Guys?

Totally! Give it 20 levels in Wizard and 20 in Bard. Those seem to fit the best!

I've always wanted a pet tarrasque! You shouldn't have!

I was thinking Barbarian...because a tarrasque isn't crazy enough without Rage...

Bard 20 / Oracle 20, obviously.

Wiz20 Clr20 Mystic Theurge 10

Summoner, with a Tarrasque lady-friend as his Eidolon

Aww yeeeeeeeaaaaaahhhh

Today was the day I wanted to officially get things started, but I will be away from the computer all day today. I'll move us all along this evening when I get home (be about 5:00, central time).

I'll have a small description up for sure, with more to follow because I can. :)

Making tweaks to my char sheet. Will finalize by this weekend.

What does non-proficiency mean in PF, specifically with regards to exotic weapons? In some game systems you cannot use a weapon without proficiency, while other systems allow you to use them but either at penalty, or you're denied the benefit of a proficiency bonus. How does it work in PF?

If you attack with a weapon you are not proficient in, you take a -4 to attack rolls

You can use it, but you have a -4 penalty until you take the EWP feat for it. :D

Got it. Thanks! :-)

Rolling HP for level 4+

EDIT: You've gotta be kidding me...
