![]() There are a number of traps found on boxes, and some have a few sub-types to go with them. Obviously, the level or difficulty of the trap is taken into account. ![]() Success of magically disarming traps using the Disarm (408) spell is at least partly based on the caster's level, Minor Elemental spell ranks, the caster's Aura bonus, and the spell Disarm Enhancement. The only trap that can (and will) be set off by Piercing Gaze is the Glyph trap. Success of magically detecting traps using Piercing Gaze (416), depends on Perception skill ranks, Minor Elemental spell ranks, Intuition bonus, Logic bonus, and the spell Disarm Enhancement, which also takes Aura into account. Items needed to disarm various traps include disarming kits, which can be purchased from locksmith shops, dagger-based weapons, and lockpicks. Disarming Traps skill is needed to disarm the traps. The Perception skill can help in detecting traps. Traps found on boxes can be DETECTED to attempt to see the trap, and DISARMED to disarm the trap. Some traps, however, require more steps and/or specific items on hand to disarm them. Most traps only require two steps to remove - the check for traps and then the disarm attempt. Cayden appeals to him as a god of bold action, playing for high stakes-followed by rowdy partying to celebrate that you miraculously survived it all.Traps are typically found on boxes that some creatures drop as treasure or loot when searched. He's one of the most honest thieves you'll ever meet. ![]() Ansari's skill set is very much focused on the trap-finding burglar schtick, but he uses those skills on behalf of the Society to help his team navigate ancient sites safely, out-maneuver their enemies, rescue prisoners, and so on. My "dash-one" in PFS is a rogue who worships Cayden Cailean, and who even dipped a single level of cleric on his way to Seeker. Like, you join the local Thieves Guild and you actually steal stuff and whatnot for a while, because they're the only ones with the skills to find the evil artifact hidden beneath the city? I think this almost has to be a CG deity, yes? A worshipper of Desna could probably get away with it, but ehhh Desna's really obvious. Does it exist?ĭouglas Muir 406 wrote: 2) A good-aligned deity who is NOT actually a deity of thieves, but whose worshipper could be a full-time thief in order to accomplish some higher, better goal. (Though we see him mostly through flashbacks from the main character, who is one of his surviving apprentices, and whose memories may be a bit rose-colored.)Īnyway, that's the sort of thing I'm looking for. Translated to D&D alignments, the god is probably CN and Father Chains might be CG - he's stern but kindly, and very loyal. Very occasionally he'll take a talented child as an apprentice. There's a local Thieves Guild they view him with awe and respect. His duties include making offerings to the god (always a tithe from stuff that's been stolen, because that's the only acceptable sort of offering) and prayers for the souls of dead thieves, especially the ones that are captured and hung. He's old now, so he's more of a trainer of promising young people with the occasional bit of grifting to keep his hand in. The god values cleverness, skill and cunning, but only in the service of theft.įather Chains was himself an accomplished thief. This god has his own theology and history, and he's got other stuff going on, but his main portfolio is, you got it, stealing things. Where I'm going with this: if you've ever read _The Lies of Locke Lamora_ and its sequels? There's a character named Father Chains who is the priest of the God of Thieves. Grifters and fancy con men are definitely included but only because they're a type of thief. I'm talking about your classic pickpocket / shoplifter / burglar type thieves here. What I'm getting here is that Golarion doesn't really have a single good god for thieves.
