QUestion: why isit that all the other issues talk about their supplementary articles, and this one cuts itself off?

I'm guessing it's because April 2008 is nine months away. I doubt they know more than the general contents of the product at this point.

Because there's an error in the text. We'll see if we can't get it fixed, but until then, the scheduled contents for the supplementary materials in Pathfinder #9 are an article about rakshasas and an article about a group of bad guys called the Red Mantis.

The intended text for the last two paragraphs is:

This volume of Pathfinder presents an in-depth exploration of the rakshasas of the world of Golarion and reveals details on one of the world’s most sinister networks of assassins, the Red Mantis.

Pathfinder is Paizo Publishing's 96-page, perfect-bound, full-color softcover Adventure Path book printed on high-quality paper that releases in a monthly volume. Each volume is brought to you by the same staff which brought you Dragon and Dungeon magazines for over five years. It contains an in-depth Adventure Path scenario, stats for about a half-dozen new monsters, and several support articles meant to give Game Masters additional material to expand their campaign. Because Pathfinder uses the Open Game License, it is 100% compatible with the world's most popular fantasy roleplaying game.

What character levels are the #7, #8 and #9 intended for?
