Re: What is the best Pathfinder AP to Solo as Necromancer (Both RP and Mech)?

[M. Arillius]

Why not Kingmaker? The premise is that you've been send south to form a buffer state between the kingdom of Brevoy and the lawless, bandit-filled River Kingdoms. A necromancer wanting to found a kingdom where necromancy is legal and where they are the eternal lich-king is totally in brand for Kingmaker. You said no spoilers, so I'll just confirm that the module has several potential plot hooks for the ethically flexible wizard.

That does sound like a pretty good playground for that sort of thing!

Seconded, with a few more points:

- KM has lots of periods of long downtime, ideal for replenishing your undead minion supply.
- It's plot hooks work well for good or evil types, since "defend your kingdom from threats" works well for many types of characters.
- It's not good if what you want to explore is the "hide my secret necromancy from everyone" angle. Since you're the king and make the law, there's less reason to try and conceal it from society at large.

I can still see potential in having to hide my secret for at least a bit if I want to get anyone to work for me, aside from other undead. Or in dealing with other Kingdoms? Sounds like a lot of work for my fiance but I'm not opposed. XD

Ultimately it sounds like Kingmaker scores several marks on what I'm looking for, with one of the only areas really lacking being the RP angle of some consequence/trouble for being a necromancer. I'll definitely let my DMF know and she'll decide from there if she can add enough story to it! Thank you all for your advice.
