Character Creation Guidelines

Back to the beginning with Rise of the Runelords!

The PCs will be 25-point buys, no PFS restrictions. Non-standard races subject to GM approval. 

However, I do enjoy parties with a theme. This time each PC is required to spend one (1) skill point in either Perform(sing) or Perform([instrument]). Yes, the party is a band. Players that select bard, skald, or one of the bard archetypes: animal speaker, archaeologist, arcane healer, archivist, celebrity, court bard, daredevil, detective, diva, duettist, flame dancer, geisha, juggler, magician, songhealer, or street performer will get a bonus magic item. No two bards should be the same archetype.

 There will be the usual bonuses for character backgrounds, sketches, and things that enhance the party theme. There is a 20 GP award for haiku featuring kobolds, loss/sadness, and roast beef sandwiches. 150 GP will be awarded for three stanza songs featuring the same topics. Yes, I expect Caruthers and Timmy to make guest appearances.
