Well, I'm in love with the idea, execution, and its overall design, but there is one thing I must address, the lack of creative freedom that is our creation of brewing our own disease, becoming more and more complicated.
Now before we go "This can be absolutely devastatingly over powered.." Let's look at what I mean. First, Alchemical Mutations. My idea is that the Plague Bringer is allowed to add symptoms and effects to his plague carrier (Aka the target affected) The first I'd like to bring up is Daichi's discovery corrosive blood. I believe this should be an innate ability within plague bringer to begin with, at about level six. The plague bringer has very little distinguishing it currently from any other chemist..so much so in fact that they play the same if done traditionally (Aka, not my route of being a natural weapon melee specialist). So lets look at what we could do..we could..
A) We can use the pathfinder disease table listed here (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/gamemastering/af...s/diseases) Which could resort into some extremely overpowered shenanigans.. or we could..
B) Sort of mix the chemist and the magitek together to create a completely customizable disease based on level.
With the latter option taking levels of plague bringer would be more exciting, and make them feel more like a brand of their own. Some examples I've thought of could be common symptoms (Headache, sore throat, fever, nausea) (These could be offered at the beginning such as like level 5) to more uncommon, (Diahrea, inflamation, swelling tongue, swelling eyes, eye matting, and extreme fatigue) (These could be offered at about level 10) to fantasy ones, which should be saved for the later levels. Such as level 15.
This is just a suggestion, and an idea. Nothing more. I really don't have more than this, but I'll be working on it. I'm asking for a bit of help on the idea though, which is why its here. What should all these symptoms do?
