Optional Rule

How about a new campaign trait for the Iron Gods path?
Family History: Your parents, and your parents’ parents, and all the way back to the first smiths on Torch worked the Torch forging objects of skymetal. You know how to work metal and you know it well. However, with the Torch out, you no longer have a job. Without the Torch, you can work, and your family will starve. You’ve volunteered because the professional adventurers have failed, so now its time for the regulars craftspeople to save the town. You’ve not an adventurer, but when the going gets tough, you setup! You gain a +1 to a craft skill of your choice and knowledge(engineering) and these are both considered class skills for you.

How about something for a DnD Next Fighter?
Rend Armor
When you hit an enemy, you may tare and destroy the armor instead of doing full damage. When you hit an enemy, you may not add your ability modifier to the damage to impose a -1 penalty to the armor class of the enemy. This penalty stacks with itself, but only be as large as your proficiency bonus. As an example, if your proficiency bonus is +2, you may only impose a -2 penalty to armor this way.

I really love the ideas of flaws and drawbacks for Pathfinder. It’s a nice mechanical way to introduce character to your characters. How about a feat to help build that.

You’ve got your own rough corners, and it shows.
Prerequisite: One flaw
Benefit: Take one additional flaw and gain three more traits.

I really like the random fluid table for the Iron Gods AP for Pathfinder. How about a flaw that plays into it.
Fluid Compulsion
You tried the random fluids of the wastes long ago, and now you are an addict. You’ve tried to stop, but you can’t. Now, when you see it, you have to have it.
Effect: When you see a Numeria fluid, you must attempt to drink it. If you try to avoid drinking, you must make a will save DC 10+ level.

Chosen
You are chosen of a god or goddess and are now a pawn in a much bigger game. Some gods care for their chosen, while some gods let their chosen survive or die on their own wits and strength. Chosen are chosen from several backgrounds as street rats to nobles are all called to some purpose. Who has chosen you changes who and what you are or could become.
Customization
Choose a god/goddess of your campaign. You are a chosen of this god.
Skill Proficiences:
Religion, one other skill of choice
Feature:
