Ranger. Possibly ranger/warlock, but just ranger works fine too.

I think that should be all and it's pretty moderate estimation by default.

Matt Mercer's Blood Hunter is pretty much this

Oh, and weapons should come with obligatory "Custom made" modifier and at least +4 to damage for both swords and +2 for hunting knife

Technically he isn't quite human. He is a magically and genetically altered being that is unable to reproduce.

>Completely change eye structure
>Control about body functions that normally are completely autonomous
>Immunology system on overcrank
>Brain alternations, with higher activity of normally dormant parts for humans

... and all what people remember is that witchers can't have kids

Also the metabolism that lets them create and consume potions of extreme strength, which are often toxic to normal humans

Clearly a paladin

Because that's the common fact and the common answer to

> why doesn't geralt just fuck yenn/triss/ciri and breed witcher/sorc kids

I imagine it comes up a whole lot

I guess you missed the part when I said he was magically and genetically altered.

Not exactly.
I'm not 100% sure right now, but I think it's stated either in the very first short story, "The Witcher", OR at least in the first collection of short stories that witchers are infertile.

I'm just pointing out that he focused on the least important and purely accidental aspect of those alterations

? ? ?

Game?

I feel like shit for flaking out of that project

>purely accidental aspect
If it wasn't accidental, it was certainly fortuitous.

Or rather if it was accidental.

Sorceresses are often also infertile

>Disadvantages
>Ugly

Has anyone played this before?, I think Revenant Blood Hunter would be dope

Geralt is grizzled and certainly not UGLY

>Taking the owlbear statblock as a serious attempt

Wow, I'm genuinely surprised everyone hasn't already been exposed to this.

My strongest potions would still kill him.

He'd be a Witcher.
In his own rules system.
Which already exists.

By game rules, he fits the bill for Ugly.

Welcome to neo/tg/.
Last week we had the old "imperial Chinese court" pasta thread and barely anyone noticed.

The word you're looking for is "uncouth"

And someone took the time to describe him using said system here

>purely accidental aspect of those alterations
Don't think it's accidental. If I remember correctly, wizards and sorceresses are intentionally made infertile during their training, as lifelong exposure to magic energies screws up reproductive systems and usually turns caster's offspring into stillborns or mutated abominations. Wizards who initially created witchers probably had that in mind.
It was also heavily implied that Geralt is a child of a careless sorceress who, to her surprise, turned out to still be fertile. Which is why he was given to witchers, being unwanted and possibly genetically defective.

The Witcher RPG, from Poland.

>All that fanon
Witchers are infertile, because the changes they go through render them infertile. It's that fucking simple. They barely qualify as human in the first place.

That's not precisely why Witchers are sterile.
Witchers are sterile the same way most real-life heavily mutated creatures are sterile; the massive changes to their genetics makes them incapable of having children of any kind because they are either missing or have parts of their genetic code added that don't fit with normal human beings anymore. Kinda like trying to piece together a Lego puzzle with a cardboard puzzle; similar basic concept, but no it doesn't work.

Mages of all kinds are sterile because apparently magic is a lot like radiation in that not only can it cause random mutations but that it causes infertility among women in most cases.

Which was nice to see.

>Tailoring: 1
Best original episode of them all

Witchers gotta sow their own clothes son!

>metabolism that lets them create potions
...what?

>He doesn't get the reference
>He doesn't know the best girl

Fanon? It's all from the books. The only thing I made up is witcher's infertility being intentional.
And yes, I understand they are infertile because their bodies are altered. That is not a point of my post. The question is, was infertility an irrelevant side effect or one of the research objectives to make sure that thing does not reproduce.
There is no reason to assume witcher initiation changes their genetic code. It is not required to alter the body if you don't want new properties to be passed on to next generation.
And I am sure that it was mentioned in the books that sterility is not caused directly by magic, it is intentionally done to eliminate a chance of having mutated offspring altogether. There are a lot of magicians who canonically had children without any complications. Ciri's ancestors, for example.

>Mfw I realise this is from where I've got a dryad fetish

Man, the series doesn't deserve even quarter of the shit it gets. Film - sure, that was a fucking disgrace. But the series was bloody epic, especially if you consider the year and their budget

He gets the reference, actually.

Were I to try to re-create Geralt in Pathfinder,...hm. I'm thinking Ranger/Inquisitor. Or maybe Ranger/Alchemist. I'd also with with the "Skirmisher" archetype for Ranger, which loses spellcasting for an array of extremely useful and often very potent tricks and abilities.

Main class would definitely be Ranger, though.

Is it 5e? The Bloodhunter class is literally made to be him.

Done and done.

About a month ago someone posted the shitty stick figure comic on the degradation of Gaming communities, which everyone did take notice of. That's the second fastest I've ever seen a thread hit bump limit.

>Using D&D for this

Holy shit, its just an owlbear starblock, what are you going on about?

>docs.google.com/file/d/0ByxO_DcL3yIwMm1GY0h4UEdBMnc/edit
Huh. I knew about the other one, but this one is new to me. Is it an original creation, separate from the polish one?

Yep, original work.
And pretty mediocre, all things considered.

Stick around for a while and you'll figure it out.

I've heard some good things about the original one, the only problem being that nobody's ever translated the whole thing.

I have the most complete version somewhere, it all got translated, but not into conversational-quality english. Although, I've heard that this version (never actually checked myself) still gives you enough to play with, basic rules n such.

It gives you all the rules. It literally cuts out where the fluff starts. Shame they never got monsters covered, but if you read the translated rules, it's pretty easy to at least get stats and skills of each monster from the original book added to the translation.

Huh, I see.

That's reminded me of something else I found, here we go.

Version that someone did in GURPS, there's another part.

Apparently there was a third part in the making, but I never found that.

The GURPS version has two obvious flaws:
- it's unfinished (and unlike the unfinished translation, that simply means certain areas not being covered)
- it's almost entirely based on the first video game

On my personal note, comes also the following:
- it can't handle witcher signs properly
But that's purely personal opinion.

I see. Didn't know that. Haven't read most of these, honestly, I just collect them for when they become useful.

>trigger discipline

She's going to shoot you in next second, what's your problem?
This is not /k/

GURPS. So easy to stat things.

And maybe
Seriously? You never saw an owlbear in "Stat me" thread?

This. Geralt is basically a textbook Ranger, he doesn't even need any real alteration from the 5e PHB template, just be sure to buy a second longsword over his starting equipment and silver it.

Those are by-blows of the real benefit of their metabolism, the third game (incidentally the only game that really made it big) glosses over it for gameplay but witchers are largely competitive with monsters by ingesting potions and their metabolism is basically geared up to allow them to chug potions strong enough to get them onto the monsters level without killing them. As says, the potion tolerance is the real kicker there.

Potions in the source material were barely there. In fact, the most useful aspect of them was night vision and enhanced senses. Geralt used them more often to just hear if anyone is sneaking on him than actually fighting monsters.
Especially since most of the monster slaying happens in the short stories anyway.

>Moderate estimation
>109 Stat Points

You can start with what? 45 tops, with extreme min-maxing?
