personaggio Archetipo Wolf Rider

[kiba89]

Dopo aver creato la razza Lupina e l'archetipo razziale Hruff passiamo ora a creare un nuovo archetipo razziale per il Cavaliere!

Dal brainstorming iniziale:

Cavalier: sono nomadi ed hanno un bonus a Ride, quindi ci starebbe bene un archetipo che dà un lupo crudele come destriero e bonus per la difesa del branco

Per il Cavaliere dev'essere qualcosa simile al Beast Rider con magari qualcosa dell'Honor Guard o dello Strategist.

Ora bisogna passare all'archetipo per cavaliere. Per iniziare, come lo si potrebbe chiamare? Semplicemente Wolf Rider?

Sulla base dei tuoi consigli, poi, ho dato un po' un occhiata e la mia idea iniziale sarebbe una cosa molto semplice:

- un abilità Wolf Mount praticamente identica a Exotic Mount del Beast Rider ma riadattata (a un lupo crudele? lo si può cavalcare?)

- l'abilità Tactician dello Strategist.

- l'abilità Tactical Advantage sempre dello Strategist.

Le due abilità tattiche sarebbero sostanzialmente per rievocare il lavoro di branco/squadra.

Però non sarebbe male metterci qualcosa anche dell'Inspiring Commander.

Non ho avuto molto tempo per pensare all'archetipo, ma a parte l'abilità Wolf Mount che devo ancora affrontare per il resto (a me no che non mi/vi vengano altre idee) direi che l'archetipo si completa come segue:

Tactician (Ex): As the cavalier class feature, except that a wolf rider can use this ability once per day at 1st level, plus one additional time per day at 5th level and for every four levels thereafter (to a maximum of five times per day at 17th level).

Teamwork Feats: At 6th level, and at every six levels thereafter, a wolf rider receives a teamwork feat as a bonus feat. He must meet the prerequisites for this feat. The ability replaces the bonus feats class feature.

Tactical Advantage (Ex): At 14th level, whenever a wolf rider uses his tactician ability to grant the use of a teamwork feat to his allies, he can move up to his speed as a free action either before or after granting the feat. This movement provokes attacks of opportunity normally. This ability replaces greater banner.

Queste tre abilità, come già detto, puntano a sottolineare le capacità del branco sotto forma di gioco di squadra.

Direi di aver raggiunto un archetipo pressochè definitivo a meno che non abbiate da consigliarmi qualcosa, eccolo di seguito:

WOLF RIDER (CAVALIER ARCHETIPE)

The cavaliers lupins are famous to establish a special relationship with his companion, which are also their mount. Furthermore, these cavaliers develop an incredible teamwork which his team, or herd.

Wolf Mount (Ex):

At 1st level, a wolf rider forms a bond with a strong, loyal companion that permits him to ride it as a mount. This mount functions as a druid's animal companion, using the wolf rider’s level as his effective druid level. The animal chosen as a mount must be large enough to carry the wolf rider (Medium or Large for a Small character; Large or Huge for a Medium character). The wolf rider does not take an armor check penalty on Ride checks while riding his mount. The mount is always considered combat trained, and begins play with Endurance as a bonus feat. A wolf rider’s mount does not gain the share spells special ability.

Each time the wolf rider increases in level, he can choose to select a new, more impressive mount better suited to his increased power.

A wolf riders can choose a wolf mount at 1st level. Additional mounts might be available with GM approval (like terror wolf)..

In addition, a 7th-level or higher Medium wolf rider can select any creature whose natural size is Large or Huge, provided that creature is normally available as a Medium-sized animal companion at 7th level (like a wolf). To generate statistics for such a mount, apply the following modifications:

• Size Large;

• Ability Scores Str +2, Dex -2, Con +2;

• Increase the damage of each of the mount’s natural attacks by one die size.

A wolf rider cannot choose a mount that is not capable of bearing his weight, that has fewer than four legs, or that has a fly speed (although the GM may allow mounts with a swim speed in certain environments).

Anytime a feat or ability allows a mount to make a hoof attack, it can make a claw, slam, or other analogous attack instead.

This ability replaces the standard cavalier's mount and expert trainer abilities.

Tactician (Ex):

As the cavalier class feature, except that a strategist can use this ability once per day at 1st level, plus one additional time per day at 5th level and for every four levels thereafter (to a maximum of five times per day at 17th level).

Teamwork Feats:

At 6th level, and at every six levels thereafter, a wolf rider receives a teamwork feat as a bonus feat. He must meet the prerequisites for this feat. The ability replaces the bonus feats class feature.

Tactical Advantage (Ex):

At 14th level, whenever a strategist uses his tactician ability to grant the use of a teamwork feat to his allies, he can move up to his speed as a free action either before or after granting the feat. This movement provokes attacks of opportunity normally. This ability replaces greater banner.

Wolf Mount l'ho praticamente copiata dall'archetipo beast rider del cavalier (ultimate combat), spero solo di averla adattata bene perchè dovevo togliere la roba in più.

Aspetto qualche giorno per eventuali pareri/consigli/critiche e poi vedo di aggiornare anche il post principale della razza
