Sasha's Background:
Sasha is a Varisian human inquisitor of Sarenrea. Although dedicated to healing the injured and exorcising possessions, she has a fun side and loves to dance and crack jokes with her companions. Although a descent shot with a longbow, Sasha prefers to melee with her scimiar.
Sasha was caught outside of Sandpoint when the goblins attacked, searching for herbs to treat an infected local. Ambushed by the goblins, Sasha fought back despit being vastly outnumbered. Shaleluarrived just in time to save her from a burning torch and helped even the odds against the goblins. Since then, Shalelu has tutored Sasha in how to use her natural dancing ability to evade arm, even if her current armor prevents her from using this newfound talent optimally.

Hey there, I'm throwing my hat into the ring here.
Name: Balatsu
Race: Human (Garundi)
Class: Wizard (Diviner)
Alignment: LN
Balatsu is a scholar and worshiper of Pharasma who is researching clues to a prophecy (probably should be something relevant to the campaign with DM's approval). His familiar (a bat at 1st level) is really an imp in disguise (will take the necessary feats when level appropriate) who is trying to mislead him on his quest.

Sorry the updates having been real late. I've been pretty busy lately. I'm going to continue in a more abreviated formate, only going into detail on the big fights (like the showdown with Mokmurian which I'll be posting momentarily).

JAMES (eating pie): I like pie. So how about....
ERIK: PAIZO! That's it!
JAMES: What's it?
I didn't get a vote on the name.
Our first publisher, Johnny Wilson, was a biblical scholar adept at ancient Greek. "Paizo" is a form of the Greek verb "to play," apparently, and thus the clever name Paizo was born.
I was merely a middling editorial type at the time, and once I'd figured out how to spell and pronounce it, I just went with the flow.
It's interesting to see how all of the Brits over here pronounce it. They say PAY-zo, whereas in the states it seems more like a 50/50 split.

No the worst F5 spam in history was the release of the MMO called darkfall. Try doing it for 12 hours just trying to get to play a game. Been there done that.
Wait, I thought that was the game: to see who can hit F5 the most in 12 hours.

I want to see a compendium of New Monsters introduced in Pathfinder APs, Modules, etc. all updated with the new rules.
Also, Psionics update would be nice, but Dreamscarred Press is filling that gap.
Getting away from the RPG end, I'd like to see some high-level adventures or AP, especially a sequel to RotRL. You could make this full AP where each advnture focuses on one of the six remaining runelords.

Point 1) As far as consistant damage output, we're talking averages here...lets consider a 10 round combat at fairly low levels. The enemy has an AC of 20. The Two Handed Ranger has a +10 to strike once (for 2d6+9 damage, average 16). The TWF Ranger has a +8 to strike twice per round (1d6+6/1d6+3, average 9.5 and 6.5).
In that combat, the TWF Ranger should hit an average of 8 times. 1/2 the primary hand, 1/2 the secondary hand. Total damage should average 64
The Two handed weapon Ranger should hit an average of 5 times. Total damage should average 80.
No, you're talking total damage here. This analysis fails to take into account the Law of Diminishing Returns, that is to say, it's better to hit more often then less often. Using this analyis, a guy that hits once in ten rounds for 101 damage is better against a guy that can hit every round for 10 damage each time.
If you weight the damage using a standard weighting method used in economics to factor reliablity into the equation(i.e. taking the natural log of the damage), and using the same assumptions of your above example, the greatsword ranger will deal a weighted damage of approximately 3.47 (per round) where as the dual shortsword ranger will deal a weighted damage of 4.29 (per round).

Using Channel Smite is a swift action, so you can only do it once per turn. If you have additional attacks, does it apply only to all of them or just one?
Byron Zibeck(Pathfinder Adventure Path Charter Subscriber; Roleplaying Game Subscriber)
How does Channel Positive Energy work with a Cleric/Paladin multiclass? Do they just count as separate abilities? Would the cleric chanel use the cleric level to determine how many dice are rolls with SV DC = 10 + 1/2 cleric level + Cha bonus?

As usual for subscription shipments like this one for the Bestiary, there are literally thousands and thousands of packages to ship out and they only get out the door one at a time, so somebody has to be first and somebody has to be last. We try to do it as quickly as is feasible, but we are down one warehouse hand this week due to sickness, so it is bad timing in terms of us getting everything out the door really quickly. But, as anybody who has been here for a while knows, Vic, Jeff and myself will be putting long hours in the warehouse to get everything out the door as quickly as possible. Hang in there!

I know this logically, but it doesn't help being patient. ;-)

Here are some thoughts I have:
The Old Courthouse is located in Old Korvosa. Crimes occuring in Old Korvosa were held there as opposed to the Longacre Building in North Point. Ten years ago, it was shut down as per the adventure and its operations were folded into the Longacre Building.
Also, I'm thinking of replacing Cole with Grau, blending their backstories as needed.

I'm thinking of running Hangman's Noose in the middle of Edge of Anarchy to give my PCs some much needed XP and get them up to 3rd level before continuing the adventure. Has anyone else done this?

You must have known in pointing me to this thread that I would want to know the full story behind this scrumptious urophagia. Please provide, gentle scribe.
See, we were trying to recruit Ox for some added muscle. He was being pretty rude, so one of the others (I believe it was Oevre) swipped his drink. He started complaining and demanding we pay to refill his cup, so Koz obliged him. And then he drank it.

Golarion has serpentfolk; they'll be statted out in "Into the Darklands." They'll be similar to the ones from the Freeport setting, since they draw on the same pulp inspirations (Lovecraft, Howard, etc.).
