PF2 Build Barak Druid Animal Dwarf

Pathfinder2 – Class Build

Barak – Dwarven Animal Druid

This is how a new character to the Wednesday night game is being built and brought into the campaign.

Character Creation

Step 1 – Create a Concept

• Mechanical Concept
• Team Concept
• Religious Concept

As this campaign was based at the start of the Pathfinder era including a lot of the original concept was building characters using the core book, which were viable in the timeline.

Mechanical Concept

The player wanted to build a druid specialising in animals and the wild.

Team Concept

Character is part of the Pathfinder Society.

Religious Concept

The character worships a Nature God Gozreh.

Step 2 – Ability Scores

A starting character has 10 in all their ability scores, noting for Druid the key ability score is Wisdom. (Note, no longer using numbers, only the modifier to represent ability scores.

Str +0 – Dex +0 – Con +0 – Int +0 – Wis +0 – Cha +0

Step 3 – Ancestry

The characters base ancestry is Dwarven:

Step 4 – Pick a Background

Characters in the game get the standard background, plus a few extra options including a location as their home from before the pathfinder society and gaining a pathfinder society feat.

Chosen to have: Background – Scout (rb-cr-65) and Pathfinder Hopeful (lo-wg-22), Location – Riddleport
