You get an ability boost to DEX and CHA
You also get one ability boost of your choice, please choose your free ability boost

In reply to GM (msg # 3):

what's good for monks?
My thought is for defense, acrobatics/swashbuckling

Acrobatics is a DEX skill. Skills are covered in the Core Rulebook starting on p.233

Defense depends on what type of defense you're wanting. Hard to hit, easy to hit but hard to damage, damage soaking, etc.

Monks are in the Core Rulebook starting on p.155 and the Advanced Player's Guide p.128

Unarmed attacks are on p.278 in the Core Rulebook

In reply to GM (msg # 3):

Q: You also get one ability boost of your choice, please choose your free ability boost

A: DEX

Your Ancestry gives you a boost to DEX and CHA, and a flaw to CHA WIS

Your free boost cannot be applied to any of those.

Define the following:

Gender
Eyes
Fur
Height
Weight

Gender Female
Eyes Yellow
Fur Tawny
Height 70"
Weight 198lb

Clarity on details:

Do you have the stripes that are a hallmark of the Qittaj ethnicity? From the Lost Omens Ancestry Guide: "They tend to have yellow or green eyes and striped bronze or yellow fur." Basically, the Qittaj look more like tigers.

By catfolk standards you are a giant of a woman and heavily overweight. From the Advanced Player's Guide: "Catfolk are rarely taller than the average human and, because of their lean builds, almost never weigh as much as a human of similar height."

Average Human Female is ~5'4" and ~108-132lbs at that height. At 5'10" it's ~135-165lbs.

I'm fine with with whatever you choose, I just want to make sure you're aware of the deviations from the norm, significantly so in regards to the height and weight.

I'll use the appearance in the portrait, any distinct striping is hidden by clothing.
Height/Weight will be at top end, 68" (5'8") / 165lb

Choose your homeland.

Qittaj are from the region known as the Golden Road (Lost Omens World Guide p.48-59) and specifically the nation of Qadira (Lost Omens World Book p.54-55).

The campaign will begin in the region called the Eye of Dread (Lost Omens World Guide p.36-47) and specifically in Ustalav (Lost Omens World Book p.45).

We currently have a character from Ustalav, one from the Forest of Spirits in Tian Xia, one from the fallen nation of Lastwall, and one from the Shadow Realm.

She is from the capital settlement/city, a child of maritime traders.

Capitol of....?

What country? Qadira?

Catfolk capital

Ok, just to be clear, there are no nations that are ruled/founded by catfolk.

There are nations that catfolk live in. The Qittaj Catfolk originate in the Padishah Empire of Kelesh. The Qittaj can be found in the eastern portion of the client state of Qadira, which is the part of the Kelesh Empire that is closest to the where the campaign is being played out.

Qadira is a part of the region known as The Golden Road (Lost Omens World Guide p.48-59) and specifically (Lost Omens World Book p.54-55).

Now, that doesn't mean you have to have been born and raised there. It is entirely possible to have a homeland that is somewhere else, but your familial lines will inevitably lead to the Kelesh Empire.

Of course.
She is from eastern portion of the client state of Qadira.

Information on Qadira: https://pathfinderwiki.com/wiki/Qadira

Please choose a name. The Qittaj are unique among catfolk in that they use multiple names and in the style of the Kelesh. Examples are in the discord.

Samara ibnat-Khafif, nickname Sapphire

Choose your Heritage, keep in mind your Rarity Points. Everyone gets 3 Uncommon, or 1 Rare and 1 Uncommon selection during character creation. Any that are left over can be saved for access to Uncommon/Rare things during gameplay or character advancement. Catfolk are Uncommon, so you currently have 2 Uncommon, or 1 Rare choices available. If you have questions about this ask away on Discord.

The Qittaj most often have the Sharp-Eared (Lost Omens Ancestry Guide p.17) or Nine Lives (Advanced Player's Guide p.10) Heritages.

Other possible Catfolk Heritages can be found in Advanced Player's Guide p.8-9 and Lost Omens Ancestry Guide p.17

Also available are Versatile Heritages Advanced Player's Guide p.28-41, Lost Omens Ancestry Guide P.74-81, P.94-119
