Editing Build Rules (section)

== Character Creation Guidelines ==
;*Allowed Sources: Official Paizo material only 
:''No Third Party If I can't find it on Archives of Nethys, then it's a no''
;*Starting Level: 3 
:''(There's a reason you were picked, after all)''
;*Point Buy: 20 (Standard PF)
:''I don't recommend dump stats - I'm the mean GM who'll make you play a low INT or have people react to low CHA - I'd definitely not recommend a stat under 8 after racial mods''
;*Allowable Races: All core races, plus the planetouched and changelings. 
:''If you've got a really good backstory for something else, we can talk''
;*Allowable Classes and Archetypes: Most, but...
:''I'm not familiar enough with Occult to run that fairly, so it's out.'' 
:''Unchained Summoners are the only ones allowed.'' 
:''Other than that, if it's official Paizo, it's in.''
;* Exception: No guns. For anyone. 
:''So, unless you want a Bolt Ace, that's a no on the Gunslinger.''
;* Alignment: They're looking for heroes, and it's an LG nation with a paladin as it's ruler. So, yeah, no evil. 
:''(Also, no Lawful Stupid or Chaotic Stupid. I hate that.)''
;* Traits: 2. One must be a campaign trait 
:''You can take a third in exchange for a drawback - but I'll want to talk about the drawback and how it can actually come up in play. Also, the traits need to actually make sense - you can't be the poor kid who grew up on a farm and then pick an urban trait, for instance.''
;* Hit Points: Max at level 1. For every level thereafter, half plus a roll of a die with the same number of sides. 
:''So, that's 3+d3, 4+d4, 5+d5 or 6+d6'' 
:''Same applies to animal companions (since they're class features) - but not to NPCs (lookin' at you, leadership feat)''.
;* Skills: We will be using Background Skills, as described in Unchained. Skill unlocks are also a thing.
;* Hero Points: They're in. You will all have 2 at the start of the campaign.
;* Starting Gold: Max for a level 1 character
:''Once you've built based on that, I'll provide a list of loot bags that represent what you found in your previous 2 levels worth of career -- people can then pick the one they want - and then do with it as they will (sell/trade, keep, whatever).''
