Character Creation
Here is a quick outline of the character creation process:
Choose a Name
The name of your character can really set the tone for the rest of the character creation process. It can also set the tone for the game. The more creative and evocative the name, usually, the more memorable the character. You could have the most interesting backstory, funny quirks and dynamic outside-the-box hijinks with your character, but if his name is "Fandolf", that's all anyone is going to remember.
It's fine to want to make a character like that guy in that movie you like, but try to put a spin on it that makes the character your own, as well.
Remember, a great name leads to a great character.
Choose a Class
A character's class represents a profession, such as fighter or wizard. If this is a new character, he or she starts at 1st level in this chosen class. As the character gains experience points (XP) for defeating monsters, he goes up in level, granting him new powers and abilities.
If your character is a spell caster that prepares spells (such as a wizard) you will need to determine the spells your character starts with. Consult your GM to determine this list.
It is usually a good idea to discuss your class selection with the other players in your group, to ensure that your party will have a good mix of abilities. It is strongly recommended that at least one person play a healing class. It is also very helpful to have a tank character who can soak up a lot of attacks that might otherwise land on the more delicate characters. Damage classes will keep the fights shorter, meaning the party will take less damage (dead monsters don't do damage, usually). In the end, though, you should play the class you want to play, and have fun. A party without a healer can get by with potions, scrolls and wands, or just sleep off their damage. Perhaps not optimal, but certainly playable.
- Favored Class
- Each character begins play with a single favored class of his choosing. Typically, this is the same class as the one he chooses at 1st level. Whenever a character gains a level in his favored class, he receives either + 1 hit point or + 1 skill rank. The choice of favored class cannot be changed once the character is created, and the choice of gaining a hit point or a skill rank each time a character gains a level (including his first level) cannot be changed once made for a particular level. Prestige classes (see Prestige Classes) can never be a favored class.
- Additional race- or class-specific favored class bonuses are not available, and may not be selected at level-up. After the classes were rebuilt the need for the favored classes bonuses are greatly reduced, and including them makes maintaining balance much more difficult. Players must suffer through the stifling choice between an extra hit point or an extra skill point if they level up in their favored class.
- Multiclassing and Prestige Classes
- Because play-testing and class balancing is still ongoing, multi-classing is not allowed at this time. Much work was expended to make all the classes balanced and interesting to play at all levels. Allowing multi-classing makes balance much harder to maintain. Every referee may, of course, allow whatever they wish. If multi-classing IS ruled to be acceptable, it is strongly recommended that players be required to take a minimum of five levels in any selected class. You Have Been Warned.

Choose a Race
Your character's race, aside from just being a great source of stat bonuses and quirky abilities, should help you add to the character's story. Instead of just "he's an elf", try to come up with ideas for why he left his ancestral home to adventuring with a bunch of other weirdos. Maybe his ancestral home was destroyed, or maybe he was exiled.
Any race listed here is potentially playable, with GM approval. It should be noted that many of the less-common races with unusual appearances may encounter social stigma in civilized areas. GM's are advised to demonstrate caution with the "Other" races -- they may be very cool, but they're not exactly built with an eye towards balance.
Alternate racial traits are allowed with GM approval.

Determine Ability Scores
These six scores determine your character's most basic attributes and are used to decide a wide variety of details and statistics. Some class selections require you to have better than average scores for some of your abilities.
Stat generation uses a point buy system, with 28 points. Stat costs are:
Stat 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 Cost -2 -1 0 1 2 3 5 7 10 13 17
No more than one stat may be bought below a 10 (racial mods may bring a second stat below 10), and no stat may exceed an 18 without a racial mod. For those of you who would like to use a calculator, this web page has a fairly useful one: Point Buy Calculator (use other to enter the 28 starting points).
Character Backstory
The d20pfsrd has a great section on creating a detailed backstory for your character. It can be found here: Character Background
In general, players should come up with as much backstory as they can stand, as backgrounds provide hooks for GM's to use to customize their campaign to the characters. This lets the characters feel more like a part of the story, and makes the story seem more like it couldn't have happened with just anyone who came along.
That said, character backgrounds do not have any sort of game-mechanics effect on the character. Just because your character has a former military career, or used to be a Raver of Puellor, doesn't mean you get bonuses in combat, or start with some scary magic item. The story is there to help you get into the head of your character, and help the other players understand what motivates you.
Be creative, but also remember to tailor your background to your current character level. A first level character probably hasn't had much opportunity to become a famous dragon-slayer, for example.
Allocate Skill Ranks
Determine the number of skill ranks your character gets based on his class and Intelligence modifier (and any other bonuses, such as the bonus received by humans). Then allocate these ranks to desired skills, but remember that you cannot have more ranks than your level in any one skill (for a starting character, this is usually one).
Each level thereafter, your character gains a number of skill ranks dependent upon your class plus your Intelligence modifier. Investing a rank in a skill represents a measure of training in that skill.
- Class Skills
- Each class has a number of favored skills, called class skills. It is easier for your character to become more proficient in these skills, as they represent part of his professional training and constant practice. You gain a +3 bonus on all class skills that you put ranks into.
Note: Humans gain an additional skill rank at first level and one additional rank whenever they gain a level.
Class Skill Ranks Alchemist 4 + Int modifier Barbarian 4 + Int modifier Bard 6 + Int modifier Brawler 4 + Int modifier Cleric 2 + Int modifier Druid 4 + Int modifier Fighter 2 + Int modifier Monk 4 + Int modifier Paladin 2 + Int modifier Prowler 6 + Int modifier Ranger 6 + Int modifier Rogue 8 + Int modifier Sorcerer 2 + Int modifier Warlord 6 + Int modifier Wizard 2 + Int modifier
Choose Feats
A lot of feats have been modified, removed, or added. Please refer to the Featssection on this wiki, rather than the d20pfsrd. Most of the really commonly-taken feats (like Weapon Focus) have not been changed. Less common feats (like Athletic) have been revised to be more useful. A number of feats (like Vital Strike) have been removed from the game for balance purposes. If the feat isn't listed on this wiki, it is not available. If there is a specific feat you'd like considered, talk to your GM. Bring bribes.
Determine how many feats your character receives, based on his class and level, and select them from those presented in Feats.
- All 1st level characters begin with 1 feat.
- If your character's race is human you get 1 additional feat (for a total of 2).
- Unlike the core Pathfinder rules, Fighters do not gain a feat at 1st level (instead, they get a Fighter Tactic).
Choose Traits
Traits are allowed with GM approval. Characters begin the game with 2 traits, and they must each be selected from different trait categories. For example, you cannot have both of your traits come from the "Combat" traits category, even though that would be awesome.
Drawbacks are not in the game, unless your GM says otherwise. The Heroic Flaw is nearly always arrogance or overconfidence. Role-play away, you Greek-Lit majors!
Campaign-specific traits may be proposed by players for GM approval. Bear in mind that traits should have a power level roughly equal to half a feat, or less. This means no trait should give you +1 to hit, as that is a full feat (Weapon Focus).
- Link to the d20pfsrd page for Traits
Determine Starting Hit Points
Level 1 characters get full CON score plus max hit die for HP's at level 1. (Note that this means only CON score + max hit die, not CON score + CON modifier + max hit die.) As a result, all Epic Path classes are considerably more durable at first level than older rules sets would have created. Even the least durable classes like Wizards are no longer at risk of death from a single attack at first level. A first level Epic Path character feels much more robust than you will expect. Don't be afraid to go out and adventure!
To determine hit points for levels beyond 1st, roll the dice indicated by your character class's Hit Dice and add your character's CON score modifier. GM's are encouraged to allow re-rolls of 1's on this roll, because 1's suck. Some house rules even allow characters to take average on the die (rounding down) if the re-roll is also lower than average. After all, we're playing heroes, here, not accountants.
Note that the hit dice for character classes differ here than those in the core Pathfinder rules. This is intentional, as the addition of the character's CON score at 1st level makes low-level characters much stronger than normal Pathfinder characters, while at higher levels, the wider range of hit dice emphasizes the differences between the front-line melee characters and the squishy back-of-the-fight classes.

Get Equipped
Each new character begins the game with an amount of gold, based on his class, that can be spent on a wide range of equipment and gear, from chainmail armor to leather backpacks. This gear helps your character survive while adventuring.
The armor or other protective devices you purchase may affect his starting Armor Class (AC), so once you have purchased armor or other protective devices you can determine your Armor Class (AC).
Normal equipment may be purchased, but masterwork items and magic items are not available. At the GM's discretion, minor alchemical items (e.g. Alchemist's Fire or Tanglefoot bags) and minor potions (e.g. Cure Light Wounds) may be available.

- Wealth By Level
- Characters beginning at a level other than 1st should refer to the tables below to determine starting wealth for characters of their level.
- Links to Equipment
- Note that weapons and armor should be selected from the Epic Path rules, not the d20pfsrd. There are also a few pieces of equipment listed which are unique to Epic Path which may interest a starting character, such as a portable fire or a waterstone.
- Weapons, Armor and Equipment on the Epic Path page.
- Goods and Services on the d20pfsrd page.
Determine Saving Throws, Initiative, and Attack Values
Determine all of the character's other mechanical details, such as his or her saving throws, initiative modifier, armor class, to-hit bonus and damage for each equipped weapon, CMB and CMD scores, etc. All of these numbers are determined by the decisions made in previous steps, usually determined by your class choice.
- Attack Bonus
- Melee Weapon Attack Bonus = Base attack bonus + Strength modifier + size modifier
- Ranged Weapon Attack Bonus = Base attack bonus + Dexterity modifier + size modifier + range penalty
- Armor Class
- Your Armor Class (AC) represents how hard it is for opponents to land a solid, damaging blow on you. It's the attack roll result that an opponent needs to achieve to hit you.
- Armor Class = 10 + armor bonus + shield bonus + Dexterity modifier + other modifiers
- Note that armor limits your Dexterity bonus, so if you're wearing armor, you might not be able to apply your whole Dexterity bonus to your AC (see Table: Armor and Shields).
- Sometimes you can't use your Dexterity bonus (if you have one). If you can't react to a blow, you can't use your Dexterity bonus to AC. If you don't have a Dexterity bonus, your AC does not change.
- All bonuses to AC stack with each other, but not with themselves (with the exception of Dodge bonuses, which can stack with themselves). The types of AC bonuses are:
- Armor Bonus: Armor which has been magically enchanted (e.g. +2 armor) adds its enhancement bonus to the AC provided by the armor. Enhancement bonuses on armor are considered part of the same armor bonus to AC as the armor's base AC. Armor bonuses are not lost when you are flat footed, but do not apply to touch AC. Armor bonuses from different sources do not stack.
- Deflection Bonus: Magical deflection effects ward off attacks and improve your AC. Deflection bonuses apply to normal and touch AC, and are not lost when you are flat footed. Deflection bonuses from different sources do not stack.
- Dodge Bonus: Dodge bonuses represent actively avoiding blows. Any situation (such as being surprised or being flat-footed) that denies you your Dexterity bonus also denies you dodge bonuses. Wearing armor, however, does not limit these bonuses the way it limits a Dexterity bonus to AC. Unlike most sorts of bonuses, dodge bonuses stack with each other. Dodge bonuses DO apply to your touch AC.
- Natural Armor: If your race has a tough hide, scales, or thick skin you receive a natural armor bonus to your AC. Natural armor bonuses will NOT stack with themselves, and are NOT lost when you are flat footed. Natural armor does NOT count against touch AC.
- Shield Bonuses: Shields which have been magically enchanted (e.g. +2 shield) adds its enhancement bonus to the AC provided by the shield. Enhancement bonuses on a shield are considered part of the same shield bonus to AC as the shield's base AC. Shield bonuses are NOT lost when you are flat footed, and do not apply to touch AC. Shield bonuses from different sources do not stack.
- Size Modifier: You receive a bonus or penalty to your AC based on your size. Size modifiers are not lost when you are flat footed, but do not apply to touch AC.
- Saving Throws
- Generally, when you are subject to an unusual or magical attack, you get a saving throw to avoid or reduce the effect. Like an attack roll, a saving throw is a d20 roll plus a bonus based on your class and level (see Classes), and an associated ability score.
- Saving Throw Modifier = Base save bonus + ability modifier
- The three different kinds of saving throws are Fortitude, Reflex, and Will:
- Fortitude: These saves measure your ability to stand up to physical punishment or attacks against your vitality and health. Apply your Constitution modifier to your Fortitude saving throws.
- Reflex: These saves test your ability to dodge area attacks and unexpected situations. Apply your Dexterity modifier to your Reflex saving throws.
- Will: These saves reflect your resistance to mental influence as well as many magical effects. Apply your Wisdom modifier to your Will saving throws.
- Combat Maneuver Bonus
- Each character and creature has a Combat Maneuver Bonus (or CMB) that represents its skill at performing combat maneuvers. A creature's CMB is determined using the following formula:
- CMB = Base attack bonus + Strength modifier + Dexterity modifier + special size modifier
- Special Size Modifier
- The special size modifier for a creature's Combat Maneuver Bonus is as follows:
- Fine –8, Diminutive –4, Tiny –2, Small –1, Medium +0, Large +1, Huge +2, Gargantuan +4, Colossal +8.
- Some feats, items and abilities grant a bonus to your CMB when performing specific maneuvers.
- Damage while performing a Combat Maneuver.
- If a character performs a combat maneuver while wielding a weapon with which he is proficient, that character may choose to inflict a small amount of damage at the same time as the combat maneuver. Refer to the Combat Maneuvers page for details.
- Combat Maneuver Defense
- Each character and creature has a Combat Maneuver Defense (or CMD) that represents its ability to resist combat maneuvers. A creature's CMD is determined using the following formula:
- CMD = 10 + Base attack bonus + Strength modifier + Dexterity modifier + special size modifier + miscellaneous modifiers
- Special Size Modifier
- The special size modifier for a creature's Combat Maneuver Defense is as follows:
- Fine –8, Diminutive –4, Tiny –2, Small –1, Medium +0, Large +1, Huge +2, Gargantuan +4, Colossal +8.
- Some feats and abilities grant a bonus to your CMD when resisting specific maneuvers.
- Miscellaneous Modifiers
- A creature can also add any circumstance, deflection, dodge, insight, luck, morale, profane, and sacred bonuses to AC to its CMD. Any penalties to a creature's AC also apply to its CMD. A flat-footed creature does not add its Dexterity bonus to its CMD.
- Concentration Check
- If you are a caster, it will be useful to know your Concentration Check, for purposes of combat casting and other situations requiring it.
- Concentration Check = Caster level + the ability score modifier you use to cast spells + d20
- Clerics, druids, and rangers add their Wisdom modifier. Bards, paladins, and sorcerers add their Charisma modifier. Finally, alchemists and wizards add their Intelligence modifier.
Retraining
Instead of multiclassing, each time a character gains a level, she may, if she wishes, retrain out a single element of her character's abilities: a feat, 1 level's worth of skill points, the decision to take an extra skill over a hit point, etc. Doing so allows her to swap this out with a new ability she likes better. This gives players a chance to undo choices they've made that didn't pan out the way they'd hoped. Note that you may not train out an ability that is a prerequisite for another ability. Backing down a feat tree in this manner can be done, but may take several levels.
A player may not use the retraining rules to swap out an ability or feat taken at an earlier level for a feat or ability that they only qualify for now, but wouldn't have qualified for when they originally took the feat or ability. For example, upon reaching 21st level, a character gains access to Epic feats, but may not use retraining to swap out an earlier non-epic feat for an epic feat. Similarly, a high-level rogue may never retrain to have fewer than 4 basic rogue talents, even after she qualifies for advanced or epic rogue talents.
