Marshal (Pathfinder Second Edition Archetype)

(art by Llyncis on DeviantArt)

A long time ago on the blog, I covered the six mythic paths of the mythic adventures subsystem, and that was lots of fun to look at. Now, however, we’re looking at a second edition archetype that shares a name with one of those paths, the only one to make that jump in it’s own way.

I think the reason why that is probably has to do with what they original mythic paths were originally. Most were pretty much “class or collection of classes but better”, such as champion or archmage. However, the marshal, well, certainly tactical buffing characters that do so by giving orders isn’t really a thing beyond certain flavorings of the cavalier, so someone probably guessed it would be good as an archetype in Second Edition (rightfully so!).

Despite the name, this archetype can be used with any sort of character in a leadership role, not just military commanders, though perhaps those in such roles probably make the most sense.

Either way, with the right force of personality and leadership style, these leaders can give the right command at the right time, and inspire allies to fight past fear and pain.

For the base dedication, marshals improve their training in either diplomatic or fear-based social skills, and their presence in turn assuages the fears of those nearby.

Some associated with the Firebrands learn to inspire allies to be clever with their wit.

Those who prefer to strike fear can inspire allies to become more deadly and fearsome.

Meanwhile, those that focus on being more inspirational drive their allies to act with more dedication and steadfastness, making their attacks more accurate and steeling their minds against those that would undermine them.

Marshals from Lastwall might inspire allies to better resist the horror and tricks of the undead.

With a firm shout and an appeal to their better nature, these leaders can attempt to snap allies out of mental effects.

Others use their commands to help an ally brace, better resisting damage and attacks to their body.

With a cadence call, they can set the rhythm of their allies movements, letting them move with surprising speed for a few moments, but by doing so, they end up slowed later.

Striding into battle, many marshals inspire others to keep fighting with their own mighty charge.

With their focus on combat, it’s no surprise that many marshals learn to strike when gaps appear in their foe’s defenses, punishing them when an opportunity presents itself.

They even support their allies while surrounded, preventing them from being flanked by all but the most thorough surrounding forces.

With a rallying cry, marshals might be able to spur allies to battle, moving into position or striking.

Some even work with their allies to topple foes over, gaining a distinct tactical advantage.

Charging into combat can also inspire allies to move and attack as well.

More talented marshals can improve their cadence to quicken allies without exhausting them afterwards.

Finally, ranged marshals may learn to fire their weapon at gaps created by their allies’ offense, compounding pain and injury against their enemies.

This archetype offers a lot of different types of combat support buffs with the flavor of giving orders and commands, all of which can be quite fun. And the best part is, any character with a decent charisma can make use of the archetype, be they mighty champions or fighters leading the charge, or tactical genius mages leading from the back and supporting with covering fire and magical buffs.

Now obviously military roles are the most common reason for why someone might have this training, but consider other possibilities as well, such as bounty hunter groups, organized bandits, ninja clans, or anywhere else where a group would benefit from obeying a tactical leader without question. Additionally, while marshals no doubt have a major role in battle decisions, one has to ask if they also fulfill the role of team leader in other situations, and if not, who does?

They say that the dread pirate Shalan is as terrifying to her crew as she is to her foe, but while she is a harsh taskmaster, she cares deeply for those under her, and has always been fair to them both in terms of shares and in what she demands of them.

Those who have only ever faced orcs in battle might assume that they are brutish and fierce, but while they put on a fearsome display against their foes with their war chants, they are equally compassionate during times of peace. Nowhere is this more clear than Ubo Elkcall. While he may be named for how his voice carries on the battlefield, his preferred focus is on using his arts to heal and guide his people.

On the young world of Agur, only the longer-lived peoples like elves, serpentfolk, and dwarves have begun to develop civilization, but even the primitive humans are developing in their own ways, becoming master hunters and farmers. Hunting mammoth in particular is extremely dangerous, so they hunt leaders are expected to be obeyed without question when the hunt begins.

so excited kamicity ensemble finally has a solid release date i want to get into that story SOOO bad. i know vwp has that whole "this isnt real but that doesnt matter if u care about it theme" and then the isotopes are a whole other level of "we arent real but that doesnt mean we dont matter" & the two groups are so heavily bound to each other for obvious reasons i cant wait to see how those two aspects mesh together all while dealing with the whole. danger of kamicity itself.

Ridge and Lina realizing that they’re the perfect match.

Ridge: Look, I’ve never felt this way about a girl before. You’re funny and cool and awesome. I was just worried that I’d drive you away if saw who I was. Someone who likes one stands, living large, messing with people. All while looking like a sexy business man.

Lina: Are you kidding? All of that stuff you listed is what I find so sexy about you in the first place.

Ridge (shocked): Really?

Lina (chuckles): Yeah. Ridge…I never liked being in a traditional relationship. I’ve tried to several times. I’ve seen my friends in them. Jules and Don, Green and Ellie, and now Gigi and Julie. At first, I thought there was something wrong with me.

Ridge (shakes his head): Are you kidding? How could there be? And who knows, that may actually turn me on more.

Lina: What? That I watch porn in my free time while painting my nails?

Ridge: Are you kidding me? That's the hottest thing I've ever heard.

*Their friends were watching them with disturbed looks on their faces.*
