Plague in the streets! Urban mayhem! Yum!!! (Or perhaps Ecch!!! depending on your tastes in such matters.)

Gather your necromancers; it looks like there will be plenty of raw material to work with in this upcoming book.


The cover art looks great and I'm really looking forward to the whole Curse of the Crimson Throne adventure path. Role on March.

Why wasn't cover the posted on the pathfinder blog like all the rest. Not fair.

Because the blog is now handled by the marketing department and they're running on a different schedule than we were when the blog was the editing department's responsibility.


Then pleeease ask them to post the wallpapers again, Im almost running out from those.

Ney.


I got to agree with Pen_Dragon that the wallpapers are great. The one for pathfinder 3 spent weeks as my background and it would be a shame to see them go. I personally think it's a pretty cool way to advertise as it really shoes off Pathfinders amazing art. Like I said hope we see more cover art in the blogs as this one just seems to have snuck by without anyone noticing which can't be good.

You can look forward to art of the upcoming pathfinders and modules almost every friday.


Keep an eye on the Paizo Blog this week for new Pathfinder-themed desktop wallpapers.

My Rise of the Runelords game was scheduled on saturday, and I was excited because we don't get to play very often because players live across the country. Then I managed to catch some annoying flu and had to spend my weekend in bed, coughing in fever. Now the fever isn't gone, but I feel a bit better, not so weak anymore. First thing I do when I open my computer, I check Paizo blog, of course. And what do my eyes see, the Doctor is in! "Why I'd love to taste some of your funky looking medicine mr. Doctor, but why oh why didn't you come on friday?"

Suddenly, I really like the first week of April; it's a good week.

But. . .what am I supposed to do to keep myself occupied until next week?


It says "ready to ship". So when is it shipping? (And of course by this I mean "shipping to me"!) This sounds really, REALLY cool. I'm chomping at the proverbial bit. The supplemental stuff sounds really interesting, too.

Osirion (Pathfinder Adventure Path Charter Subscriber; Companion Subscriber)

Woot! Got my pre-ping email today!


Just curious...but does anyone not get the PDF or do they just wait for their print copy to ship first then buy the PDF?

I just was curious.

(Pathfinder Adventure Path, Tales Subscriber)

I'm having difficulty downloading my PDF, if that's what you're asking.

I click the link to personalize the file, but nothing happens, and the download link remains grayed out.

EDIT: Never mind, It's working now.


I mostly would like a review of this one via the PDF...

If that's possible.

I've already downloaded my PDFs and have been joyously looking through them for the last 15 minutes.

This is a good one. I love the nosferatu - classic in every way. The Leukodaemon is awesome as well, especially with the hints of the 4 Horsemen. I can't wait to read throught the adventure.

Once again, Paizo - Great Job!


Aber,

Do you mean like the Four Horsemen template found in Advanced Bestiary?!

I'm not sure. They didn't give stats for them, just mentioned them in a sidebar in the Leukodaemon entry as being the 4 Lords of the Daemons.


Well they are in there because the Four Horsemen are templates.

Not sure they are Daemons. However if they are, that's cool too.


I'm interested in feedback on the "Plague and Pestilence" article, if anyone is interested in giving it...

The Four Horsemen are the rulers of Abaddon, the NE plane. They'r'e the daemon equivalent to demon lords or archdevils.

another addition to the many kudos you have recieved . with one exception: the BODY COUNT section ;if the party completes every one of the scenarios the BODY COUNT only adds up to 2800 ( A=200, B=700, C=400, D=00, E=500, F-G = 1000) these add up to 2800 exactly so how does the party get as high as 3600 ?

Did I miss something or was a very large award omitted?

if you could send me an E-mail reply that would be nice.

If I recall there was a description somewhere that indicated the very same thing, and suggested the DM award more "body counts" saved for other actions the PC's may do. I can't find that reference currently -- although I did find the side bar "Other Plague Events" (pg 44) which you could use to add some more saved souls to the count.

(The description on page 20 under body count does indicate that up to 5000 lives could be saved by the pc's actions).

Yup, James Jacobs said in a thread somewhere (I can't be bothered digging it out, it's probably linked in the DM reference thread if nothing else) that it's expected that most groups will hit the local heroes level on that table. It goes up to 3600 to account for groups going above and beyond. F'rinstance my group saved Brienna and everyone they could manage in the hospice, the favoured soul ran himself ragged with heal skill uses and remove disease (once he finally had it), they paid for several remove diseases for various key people from the Temple of Abadar, they successfully eradicated the disease completely at Trail's End/Thieves' Camp, they worked out the disease vector very early on, so they were posting announcements all over town advising wearing gloves, particularly when handling low-denomination currency, and when they found the notes they basically turned the hospice into a giant lab, personally financing and overseing a team of every willing alchemist and healer they could find in the city for discovering, fabricating and distributing the cure. That plus my running the sidebar encounters meant they were pretty much in the 3600 region :).

I figured the figure of 3600 was intended as a realistic upper limit for how much the PCs can do. 5000 people will die if the PCs do nothing at all, the PCs can reduce it down to 1400, but there are always going to be a fair few deaths unless they somehow come up with a cure within the first few days and managed to get it out to the general populace immediately (which probably wouldn't be possible even if they raided the hospice immediately, what with the cure being the product of cross-referencing notes about experiments on plague victims, plus there's all the people stuck behind the quarantine in Old Korvosa that they can't get to immediately).
