Kistler Posted March 25 Clone Share Posted March 25 @iantruesilver is the Trap Finder trait legal? Originally from Mummy's Mask, reprinted in People of the Sands. I think that's my only mechanics question. Almost done with the character sheet. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allowed as a non-campaign trait, not as a replacement to the WotR campaign traits.

saithor Posted March 25 Clone Share Posted March 25 Working on my character some more, have a couple of questions now 1). Would having a stat at 7 count as metagaming? I know for some people it does and figured it would be better to ask first. 2). Would it be alright if I took the Feyspeaker archetype? 3). Would a dinosaur animal companion be alright? Don't know which animal I'll select yet but I know some GMs don't like the dinos being on the table. 4). Would animal companion archetypes be an option that's okay to take?

GleefulNihilism Posted March 25 Clone Share Posted March 25 Howdy folks. Tossing up Kazrir, a Half-Orc Slayer. Always open to have pre-established connections and always up for a good time.

Wouldn't be a terrible stretch to have one here in Mendev. Depends how your character and it got there? 4) Do you mean stuff like Pack Lord for example?

I'm planning on my character having been born in Kenebares but raised far away and is only venturing back after a long time training as a druid. Going for Riftwarden Orphan so she'll be looking into maybe finding out the fate of her birth parents. 4). No, there's archetypes you can apply to your animal companions that trade out some of the abilities animal companions get with new ones: https://aonprd.com/Archetypes.aspx?Class=Companion Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantruesilver Posted March 25 Author Clone Share Posted March 25 3) Sounds fine to me... 4) Unless the mechanic is specifically PFS-illegal, don't see why not. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, this should be the last question. At level 1 Animal Companions have 2 HD, I'm guessing that will follow the same rules as players, first HD max, 2nd HD rolled?

Kistler Posted March 25 Clone Share Posted March 25 @iantruesilver I've marked Gareth as 'Ready for Review'. Please let me know if any adjustments need to be made or details need to be added. Thanks!

When rolling for health, if you roll below the PFS value (which is average rounded up to nearest integer), then you take the PFS value.

Trigun Posted March 25 Clone Share Posted March 25 So if I'm reading the rules on Background skills right, a character gets two background skill points to spend on a background skill each, is that it? Because I'm reading the rules and I want to be sure I'm not getting anything wrong. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saithor Posted March 25 Clone Share Posted March 25 Yeah, you should get two points a level you can spend on background skills, your max rank is restricted to your current level. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kistler Posted March 25 Clone Share Posted March 25 And they're only for a limited list of skills. Handle animal, linguistics, sleight of hand, non combat related knowledges, craft skills, some other stuff.
