Shasta and Alistair, a Girl and her Mask - The Masks We Wear with Jack (Pathfinder 2e)

Characters Without Stories

Jack brings Shasta and Alistair to the table. Shasta is a young Aasimar monk traveling the world and Alistair is the god within the mask she wears.
Jack and I discuss the masks we and our characters wear, player agency and GM input into characters, and what might make you put on a mysterious mask.
This character is built for Pathfinder 2e.
Jack is a Jewish trans man just trying to play and learn as many different games as he can so that he can write his own adventures and games.
Titterpig Academy is mentioned in the episode. You can check out Penny's YouTube channel here:

We also mentioned a previous episode on the podcast - Season 2, Episode 2: Jurdgel Sharptooth, Goblin Customs Official, where I spoke to Caroline Vahrenkamp about her struggles with voice acting as a trans woman. If the topic interests you, I suggest you check it out.
