The myth-weavers link doesn't go anywhere. I checked out the site via google but I don't really get what to do. It wasn't letting me register.

Fixed the link. What issue do you have, exactly, when you try to register? Because, that is the first step.

Ah, Pathfinder. I'll look at making a sneaky dwarven cleric somehow. That sounds like a nice challenge.

This PRD, should help, Scott. You've played enough 3.5 that Pathfinder should be relatively easy. Sneaky Dwarf, not that hard. Sneaky Cleric... little tougher. Domain choice will probably help. I'll find a list of the Golarion deities.

And this is just an edit, I'm expecting that there will be posts once a day, maybe twice, if people are really into it.

In theory, pathfinder is easy. In practice, every few seconds I'll think about how something could be done with a particular item or feat that might not exist in PF. And I may move away from cleric. But I'll try to fulfill the role of divine caster. Probably. I haven't yet looked over all the options.

Well, I know a lot about D&D 3.5 and Pathfinder, so I can help.
Pathfinder has a couple of Divine Casters that are unique to it. The Oracle, which is sort of like a divine Sorcerer, and the Inquisitor, which is sort of like a divine ranger. Likewise, the Witch class gets access to a number of divine spells, and some arcane ones.

The inquisitor is nice and sneaky... I'll default to that for the moment.

Hey, look, it's a character sheet. Incidentally, stealth synergy is an incredibly useful feat, if we're going to be sneaking in groups. It will work best for those without inquisitor class features if everyone takes it.

Looks good at first glance Peter.
Technically, keen is only allowed on piercing/slashing -melee- weapons. But I think the concept of a magical enhancement of that type should exist for ranged weapons. So I'll allow it.

So from what I can tell, we have three roles filled so far. We have a stealth class, a divine spellcaster and an arcane spellcaster correct? The Rogue, Inquisitor and Summoner respectively. Which means the only people who haven't got character sheets up are me and one other person. So I'm just sort of checking to see if another stealth based class would be agreeable with the party. Another rogue or perhaps even a ninja? This is really only my second Pathfinder campaign and I'm looking to try something different from the tank/heavy hitter this time but I wouldn't want the party to be missing a vital role so if there are any suggestions on what would be helpful, I'm open. I wanted to get a bit of input from the people I'll be playing with before I went ahead with my first choice which is probably a ninja or rogue, as I mentioned. I'm going to try to put up my character tonight so if it's at all possible to get input by then, that'd be greatly appreciated.

To be honest any role will work with a group of 5. An Inquisitor is not as good of a divine caster as say a Cleric or Oracle, but it does the job. As well as a Summoner being no where near as good of an arcane caster as a Wizard or Sorcerer. I haven't looked at the rogues' sheet to see if they are a trap monkey or not, so there are plenty of stealth roles to fill as well. So it does not matter to me, you can play whatever class or role that you desire.

Well that's really all the confirmation I needed so much obliged there. And yeah obviously the summoner and the inquisitor are not proper replacements for full fledged divine/arcane spell casters but despite the campaign apparently being very stealth oriented, there are still roles to fill. All I really meant to say was that even in this campaign five rogues would probably be at a disadvantage if they ran into anything they had to fight, which is pretty much inevitable. That being said, I'm gonna go ahead and make a ninja.

Party roles are irrelevant. The only time it is an issue is if a lot of people play the -exact- same thing, i.e. a party of four evokers, and even then it can work.
Play what you feel like playing. I'll take care of the rest.

Just got finished with my character sheet. Let me know if there's anything I need to fix, but I think it should be good. The most unusual item I have is a mithral shirt but I don't assume that'll be a problem. I'll get on my backstory tomorrow.
