@Bludd, good point, in Pathfinder TT the one-step rule applies to clerics of a deity; that is, you must be either your deity's alignment or within one step of it. It doesn't necessarily line up so well for Golarion, since Aroden was a very popular deity with a powerful human empire that made him their patron, yet he somehow died. They're the powers associated with two of the NPC towns in our starting corner of the RK, so they'd be dominant in the area at least until players get into building. #NowPlaying #PathfinderOnder and, in this Pathfinder Online #Gameplay, I created a new character and played for 30 minutes because I suddenly felt tired for some reason. I think sending a NPC mission to another Settlement could be considered an act of war. Hello all. Titles The Inheritor
Post Comments Note: Anonymous commenting is enabled but please keep it civil. Then announce that the people can either serve Asmodeus and be like him or they can be slaves and feed the sacrificial altars. Holy war. I suggested a poll letting us pick favourites would be great, but they haven't done any more polls and probably won't, at least until (or if) PFO gets its own forums which have some way to ensure that each pledge gets only one vote. It would also fall under the hope that Pathfinder Online will expand to at least the other core deities than what I remember seeing before (one god per alignment).
At its basic level it could certainly be applied to factions as well. Another going around and forcing others to lose control due to their lust for whatever reason. Want the original posters classic cleric go with sun and healing ( saranrea offers these two..). The best I could find was this thread from May discussing the now-hidden Crowdforger Poll #2. What I would like to see is players able to convert NPC populations to worship of their deity, and tend to their needs to prevent them from running off to some other god. Dammerich, the Lawful Good Empyreal Lord of Executions! Pathfinder Online is an MMORPG from Goblinworks and Paizo Publishing based on the Pathfinder fantasy game world. In addition, the cultists of Rovagug lower your NPC guard presence by 10%. The numbers of believers and fervour of their worship may directly correlate to the divine power of a deity. So if you are a 20/20 fighter/cleric but you only slot cleric skills you get the cleric dedication bonus. Live the adventure and excitement of one of the most successful tabletop role-playing games of all time! Yeah too many little Empyreal lords to put them all into the game in a meaningful way. characters need to be one step from the company
@Nihimon That's hardly fair. I certainly think they are better than war just because.
So the idea of making the clerics have more meaning in game I don't know. Home Iomedae's Domain, Heaven
Jihad. Many gods claim to have your back. If we really want to bring setting lore into this, the souls of the dead do in fact go to a specific deity after death.
The Pallid Princess can save you from those fears. Clerics are Wisdom based casters and are not going to spend points on Charisma. (domains, like fire,earth, water chaos, good, lawful,war, travel, strength, undead, sun, healing, protection, knowledge.. etc)
LG pretty much has to include Iomedae first, for the same reason LE has to include Asmodeus first. Converting NPC guards for shrines could buff effective defense.
To just state clerics can do things against undead and can heal, is very short sighted, and instead of trying to figure out how to spread a religion. That said, the Goblin Works can't just stick new gameplay on top of an existing game and expect it to work. Or even the Green Faith which I believe is one of those that does not have a deity. On Golarion:
The games do nothing to reflect any kind of religious life or gameplay. I haven't played Pathfinder but I can see how Gorum would be a popular CN deity.
Actually, I would imagine it would work the other way around, and curse anyone who does not succome to lust. of My NOX Player was playing no sounds or it had no audio coming out from it and this i... PokeOne MMORPG! Smaller faiths would in turn have it much easier because they would have lots of targets to convert, but they may need to be careful because they are likely operating in enemy territory. and have to go look her up. If the clergy of different powers have traits in common and aren't too heavily opposed on those basics, they're better off counting one another as allies (or lackeys) than provoking them. There are religions that don't really try to convert people, at least in any organized fashion, but that's probably a major reason why they remain minority religions. Very informative Keovar. Look at the rise of megachurches and 'prosperity gospel' nonsense where people are encouraged to give up what little they have as 'seed' money. Also, I am not sure how "open" most settlements will be and let other people within their walls. TUTORIAL QUESTS! Have you heard the good word of Urgathoa? I actually think that would be incredibly interesting...along with politics of domination that goes with it.
Also, there are specific domains that each deity covers, so the average person would likely have favourites within the pantheon that follow their needs and interests, but not exclusive worship. is an abbreviation for exempli gratia. For Shelyn, I mostly think "who?" The game will feature player-controlled settlements and … At that point you couldnt slot domains that the new deity doesnt have, but then you gain access to new ones. Aristotle was big on "doing", but that was being first to the punch (and playing dirty!). I don't see why we couldn't have that for every God in the books as part as the MVP. Gorum fits PFO well as a war-god which seems inspired by Thor, but with less emphasis on hammer time. Could scale up eg Top Temple equivalent of a Cathedral that then has it's surrounding churches which themselves have their surrounding altars? Also, 'conversion' rates are problematic because there would likely be people who sell their divine allegiance or even create dummy characters specifically for that purpose. Zon-Kuthon would seem to fit as the more evil version of Calistria, just shifting from the borders pain/pleasure all the way into actual torture. Perhaps icons and holy symbols can be added into the game for shrines and flavorful decoration. It would be really simple to expand the deity set that way. This second bit does make a lot of sense for the ability that GW has hinted at to improve escalations through payer action, rather than only being able to fight them. They are the product of a discussion I started, 101 NE-Norgorber
You idea does give a constant reason to stay on top of your settlements religious needs, and a provide a solid PVE element to it as well. Alexander Damocles' post has the list of gods as of then. Abadar is a great choice for PFO since trade, cities, and civilization in general are his thing, appropriate to an economy/settlement-building game. Right now I am somewhat enamored with the idea of linking character advancement with behaviors that generate conflict and role playing opportunities. Thanks for digging that up, Fiendish; it'll help background research for my characters. I think the fact that you can go back to your own corpse should be amusing for necromantic players, to say the least. Right. Please consult a cleric of Urgathoa before undergoing any undead transformation.*. Since it's Pharasma who's returning us to life, it's hard to believe she won't make her presence known in other ways as well.
Lymnieris, the Lawful Good Empyreal Lord of Prostitution! PokeOne MMORPG! Diety/Pantheon slots in each settlement. The pause for thought is which buildings have a certain amount of common folk, how many common folk equal one manna point and what ratio of say Clerics/Preachers of the player population to common folk/buildings is suitably enough to go around but not enough to avoid competition.
Some favored weapons and domains would be missing but oh well. I'm more interested in adding depth to the religious classes though. 1 Subdomains Archon, Day, Heroism, Honor, (Judgment), Light, (Redemption), (Revelation), Tactics
Adjective Iomedaean
That's economically-motivated empire building, and even today, getting more tithes is a prime motivator for gathering and keeping a bigger flock. Roman emperors claimed to be descended from the gods, Egyptian pharaohs claimed to be incarnate gods, etc.
People support the temples which support them and can be rallied to fight against the ones which are seen to oppose them. I especially like the idea of cleric buff/de-buff for PoI structures. This would likely create the small secretive cult style behavior. A Paladin on the other hand would be ideally suited for this type of conversion. That's full of holes. I'm not at all interested in a prayer simulator or whatever, but I would like something added that makes religion and its practice a meaningful concept for a cleric, or paladin, or even some hybrid with something else for players that want to play a religious character. I don't remember all of them but I'm pretty sure Iomedae, Desna, Cayden Caliean, Phrasma, and Asmodeus were among them. Norgorber seems to fit the assassination element of the game, and I'd guess Lamashtu takes the CE spot because she's the divine matron of goblins. Portfolio Valor
*Malik is not responsible for what manner of being Urgathoa returns you as. What if the players are playing evil cultists...or worse, what if the players are evil cultists? We're talking about making terrible pacts of blood with gibbering demons and devils... for forbidden powers*.
