  • PF2e actually exists because of D&D 5e. 5e is a streamlined and (most people believe) improved version of 3.5, which is exactly what PF1e is under a different label. But to appeal to their rebellious hipster demographic the new PF had to be different and innovative. So you get a bunch of overly complex rules for options and the sake of just being like D&D but still totally not D&D. The result is a decent game that definitely isn't 5e because it intentionally trades off most of the streamlining that makes 5e more approachable for the sake of complexity and options.

    Basically it's a bunch of pretentious hipster BS.

  • Bring on the hunters. GeeBee has unhealthy emotional attachment issues, a roll target of 5, and a bandolier of man portable nuclear warheads. In situations requiring stealth or close combat the Davy Crockett weighs a hundred pounds unloaded and would make a very effective bludgeoning device (as an anime girl she is of course strong enough to wield it as such). Or she could always just decide "f- it" and go out in a blaze of glory because nukes. Basically she embodies as personality traits all the ideologies of a circa 1960 Cold War superpower that would motivate them to invent a man portable nuclear weapon with a blast radius greater than it's maximum range.

    Also I think my hair would get me the connections to requisition a Blackhawk.

  • Yandere, American (I assume this means either blonde or red white and blue), 5, named Gun Bunny. Personal defense weapon is a Carl Gustav 84mm recoilless rifle, unless the GM allows an M28 Davy Crocket (literally a nuclear bazooka).

    It took me about five seconds to create this character, and now I kind of want to actually play the game.

  • Okay that explains her name, I guess... assuming the folks at the orphanage also called her "red one" for twelve years.

    And after reaffirming her stereotypical rogueness with the backstory, I don't think she has any right to complain about the paladin suspecting her of legally questionable behavior in the last panel.

    Also I can't be the only one wondering if Lady Laeral bears a striking resemblance to a certain Tiefling and has a story about being forced to give up a child for reasons that have only recently been resolved or something else like that. This kind of screams "character development arc."

  • Perception check fell short of noticing the do-me eyes? Or was it a low Persuasion roll to convey flirtatious intent? At a guess I would imagine Konsi has a high charisma score and clerics do get access to Persuasion as a proficiency. Then again I've had cleric characters with both of those things botch rolls that resulted in violence I was trying to avoid, so a failed flirtation isn't the worst outcome, even if it's frustrating.

  • Commune is a fifth level spell. It only gets answers to three yes or no questions but that does mean that a ninth level cleric is able to literally talk to their god and have the god acknowledge and respond to them. Daily. Think for a moment about how anybody else would react to meeting someone that has conversations with a deity and isn't just delusional.

    Clerics are awesome.

  • Defaulting to a professional inquiry is a valid method of overcoming anxiety. Paladins are supposed to fight monsters. Aboleths are bad and tend to need disposed of. It's a perfectly legitimate question. Out of left field, perhaps, but this apparently badass adventurer is probably the most likely person she's met all day to actually have a line on some Aboleths blood.

  • When you try to outsmart the person who dictates the universal laws that control how the setting's gods operate you're just asking to have that attitude forcibly returned to you. Most likely in suppository form.
