Think there is a rogue, cleric, paladin, and some gnomish thing.

I think I speak for all, and even our DM Pande, certainly, yes!

Also, Art, for purposes of Skill optimization I presume your Cleric has Heal? I made that assumption so did not take it for Aendell. I did take Occult so not sure we both need it?

We have a Paladin, Rogue, Sorceror, and Cleric. Pande said not to worry too much about balance, and truthfully we are fairly balanced now so you should be able to play anything you like. Bard has been mentioned? Or if you want to align with the religious tendencies we seem to have there is Monk?

A gnomish cleric. And I did. I have heal at d6. I have to have a minimum occult of d6 just to take the class. I could possibly repurpose one dice level from occult to make heal d8, maybe.

And I certainly wouldn’t mind the extra company.

Well, I don’t need Occult for the class, although it fits his background. I could swap it for Heal at d4 and take it later?

Would we gain anything by the d4 heal?

I think having more than one person with Healing is very useful. I was thinking about it and then thought that the Paladin would have it.

But is a d4 healing worth much is what I was wondering, I guess.

It avoids taking a -2 if you try healing and are unskilled. So yes the d6 wild die has a better chance of rolling the typical 4 success, but if you don't take Heal as a skill you must Ace to succeed.

I'll adjust so he has it.

Absolutely Welcome Angr!

As far as what the party can use? Literally, anything works. What do you feel like you are in the mood for?

At the moment we have a fighting guy, a cleric, a sorcerer and a rogue, so quite literally play something interesting to you. A long range capable guy might be nice and have an instant role. A bard would be a nice fit likely, but even double stacking one of the other roles would not go amiss.

Regarding world knowledge etc... Frankly, this is my first foray into Pathfinder ever. I don't know the gods nor the world. I will happily lean on any knowledge you can offer.

I was thinking that the church might share a bit of the burden, not be exclusive. Think of it as a bit more non-denominational. But really, I don't know.

Bring all you know or don't know to the fore, and let us make this the best world/game we can. Just don't be surprised if the GM makes stuff up as he goes.

And the system is Pathfinder?

I have never actually played that system, nor do I have the rules ... brilliant start ...

But it is like savage worlds?

It’s the savage worlds conversion of pathfinder.

If you just try to make a fantasy character archetype we have a couple of people with knowledge of the game world enough to help you polish it to fit.

“Gnome thing, I think I love you. But I wanna gnow fr suuuure …”

Yes this is Savage Worlds. And Art is right, we can make any concept fit in the system.

ok - I now own a set of rules ...

Heh I could have shared them.

check out savage.us if you want a free character creator, just make a log on, and select the Pathfinder book. Then you can go through the steps. Again anyone here can help.

All8 get on savage.us is “John savage, technology in art”

Just makes the crunchy bits in the character a bit easier. And of course advances (or exp, as they call it).

Well, if I’m reading it right I cheated myself …

Actually looks like my math all works on second go through

I am thinking of human draconic sorcerer
