A gm said I couldn't use the scroll to cast raise dead because the material component for raise dead wasn't part of the making of the scroll

It came up at a gaming table.

A PC sorcerer is in possession of a limited wish scroll. He can cast it. He wishes to cast Raise Dead. According to the CRB, limited wish can be used for that spell. The sorcerer has the component for Raise Dead. Can limited wish from a scroll be used to cast Raise Dead?

You're right in the fact that kids have low attention spans. Lol. But each session would only be 1-2 fights long. At that pace, RotRl would have been reprinted at its 10th anniversary edition. And it's true, the moral and gory details could easily be glossed over. Probably run with that: 1 book, not several with a very heroic theme. See what she says. Thanks for all the input.

Thanks for the input. Now has LoF been updated to Pathfinder and not using 3.5 rules? The reason I say this is because my better half is running it and she's a real noob when it comes to this.

What do people think is a good KID FRIENDLY AP? The age range is between 8-11. Kids can pick up the combat rules pretty quickly but some story lines are really gruesome. Suggestions?

Trace, I wouldn't want to risk it. It'd be a shame to write a beautiful piece of work and not share it with others. Besides I'm going to novelize the adventure path that I created. If you want, I will share it with you when it's ready.

I understand. Still a little disappointed but I'll live. To the Inner Sea guide!!! Might I suggest that novelization of APs be something that paizo looks at though. There seems to be a market for it.

I just checked with paizo. You can't novelize APs. You can write in the setting but not adapt the story.

Cool. I'm going to novelize the AP and see how it turns out.

Is it allowed to novelize aps?

Sorry, but I don't know where else to post this. I love ROTRL! It's a great adventure path. I can't run it fast enough for my players to suit my needs. So since I like writing so much, I created 5 pcs and I would write about them going through it. It would be like a novel written in 1st person. The question is am I allowed to post their stories on my own personal journal online? When you think of it I'm just giving paizo free advertising but I want to clear the legal aspects up. I have read the community use policy and I think I'm allowed but I want to be sure. Thanks.

What's depends on how you do it. I'm making a MT for PFS. Oracle/abyssal bloodline sorceror. What is he going to do? Summon monsters, lots of monsters. With the appropriate feats the critters can surround the enemy providing flanking for the fighter or the rogue. I have the channel class ability. Heal them all up at the same time. And this way both classes are tied to one ability score, not two. I think it will be a great support class.

I had a TPK Last night with this scenario. On the first encounter. I had a barbarian, a witch, a fighter and a gunslinger. Everyone failed their will saves and were killed. There should be something that can break the enchantment so it's not built on dice rolls

Question for everyone: Is it permissible to say for a stat block "Giant Spider hp 16 as per Beastiary pg 258? The beastiary is part of the core assumption for GMs.

Update: he cancelled last night, so I can talk to him this week.

His spidey-senses are good...

I'm still not sure why the GM should be the one to talk to him instead of the unhappy players in question.

Most likely for the simple reason that Lamplighter is the only one willing to be confrontational in this regard. Everyone else will simply "suffer" by cancelling any table they see they share with him, voicing their opinions in a very passive aggressive way, instead (and without actually having to tell the guy he's a jerk). That, of course, will hurt Lamplighter's events in different (and far broader) ways. Thus, Lamplighter is willing to step in and actually deal with it. Which makes sense.

I have something to say about that. Even though I know about the PC in question, there was another who was just as bad. I thought to myself, "I can't badmouth the PC behind their back if I can't make him/her better. The problem with this player, among other things, was that he/she didn't know the rules, and kept on asking what can my character do. So I sat down with the PC and tried to help. It lasted all of one session before that person ignored me. I don't know what to do. I tried and I made sure that I didn't sound confrontational.
