I've been thinking of creating a Pathfinder game for some time now focused on two player teams: Team Plant (good) versus Team Zombie (evil). What source materials, ideas, rules or settings should I apply? Anything from races to classes to equipment to settings or new deities or whatever else is fair game.

This is a brainstorm, so by all means post whatever you think is relevant. You may also post irrelevant material, as long as you think it's cool. Third party material is fine. Homebrewed stuff is fine. Telling me using Pathfinder won't work and that I should use another system is also fine, as long as you tell me what other system I should use and what material makes it better. Just please don't tell me that this idea sucks, because that would make me sad. :smallbiggrin:

Team Necro is pretty easy.
Wizard (Necromancy School)
Sorcerer (Undead Bloodline)
Witch (Graveborn archetype)
Clerid (Undead Lord)
Oracle (Bones or Juju)

Team Plant?...Not so easy.
Druid (any) is in. Jungle Druid Archetype, Plant or Jungle Domain.
May have to have a couple Druids, just focused in different areas (one Plant Shaping focused, another casting focused, another summoning focused...)
Oracle w/Nature Mystery
Oracle w/Wood Mystery
First Worlder Summoner
Wood School Wizard
Gnome Cleric, alt-favored class bonus of +1/2 to Channel Energy when healing plants (that's about it, I blame the Druid for hogging all the "nature").

Doing a quick SRD search reveals Plant Bloodline (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/sorcerer/bloodlines/bloodlines-from-3rd-party-publishers/spes-magna-games---sorcerer-bloodline/plant-bloodline) for Sorcerer, a Plant-Imbued (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/bestiary/monster-listings/templates/plant-imbued-creature-cr-varies-tohc) template for creatures

For team plant don't forget Preservationist Alchemist and Mystic Ranger,; Both teams could have a Sorcerer too (Fey vs. Undead.)

Druids vs. Necromancers? :smalltongue:

This. Totally this.

I'd be on the latter's team. :D
