So I'm going to be playing a Pathfinder game at ChimaeraCon in April, and I'd like some help with a few things.
Dervish Bard building
Game requirements:
lvl 1-5
Other players currently signed up:
Rogue lvl 5
Alchemist lvl 4
A melee class
1 Unknown
Personal requirements:
Tiefling or a base race (preferably Tiefling, but no idea on the requirements)
Bard
Dervish archetype
Preferably lvl 5, no alignment preference for me. I'm not sure if the Tiefling variants are allowed though, so suggestions with and without the variants are appreciated.
Also, suggestions for non-Tiefling races are appreciated. The requirements are pretty vague so I wanna try to cover all my bases.
Here's the thing about the game being played:
Pathfinder Society Scenario #3-18: The God's Market Gamble (Pathfinder Society - Pathfinder RPG)
By Dennis Baker. A Pathfinder Society Scenario designed for levels 1–5. Valuable relics of religious natures have been disappearing on their way into Absalom and the Pathfinder Society stands to lose countless irreplaceable artifacts if the cause isn't found. Amid the bustling markets of the God's Market in the shadow of the Starstone Cathedral, the Society sets a plan in motion to ensure the parties responsible for the recent thefts are caught and brought to justice.
I've got until the 6th of April to have the character worked up, and I've got a lvl 1 Summoner that I need to work on as well (Though I can sort this one out myself).
Edit: 'Cause I'm weird and a little worried that people are under the impression that I want them to make a character for me. What I am looking for:
Feat Suggestions
Useful skills beyond social skills and perform
Equipment suggestions (Aside from weapons and armor)
How to deal with a Convention game (First convention for me)
Girlfriend's first PF game
Well I managed to get my GF to come with me to the con and suggested she try playing one of the 1-hour Pathfinder demo games there.
She's not really a gamer and has no experience with any tabletop game that I am aware of (Though she's shown interest in World of Darkness). I've the feeling she does not know what building a character entails, because when I asked her, she replied with "Smeagol".
Does anyone have any tips for introducing a non-gamer to something like Pathfinder? I'd like her to have a good time, but I don't want her to feel overwhelmed. The game is a standard dungeon delve, but I don't know much beyond that.
