Also, necrocrafts. I don't know what they are, but I want one.

Paizo, if you tease me with Kaiju and then I don't see them... I don't know if my poor little heart can take the strain.

You hear that? A life is on the line here! Kaiju!

Thank you. :)

Just looking for your opinion on something real fast.

An upcoming game I'm running takes place in a world that is, while remaining wholly in the realm of fantasy, highly influenced by 1950s sci-fi and horror films (tons of giant monsters running around, aliens, robots, etc., while all of the human elements will tend to have strong cold war themes running through them).

Do you think that it would be more effective in general to tell my players that they're playing in a 1950s sci-fi setting so that they can make characters that more easily fit into the tropes of those stories? Or would it be best to just have them make characters and let them discover the setting entirely in character?

This is a question I've struggled with in just about every campaign I've run (how much information do you give the players before starting a campaign), and I'm curious about what your opinion is.

I tell you in all honesty that this is one of the most creative homebrew classes that I have ever seen. It isn't derivative like most classes that get put here. Don't be discouraged if you don't get a lot of comments. You have a good thing going here!

Thanks. :) Just a little (and I think understandably) nervous, as it's the first real thing I've tried to make for the game.

How might you form the adjective for somebody touched by Cyth V'sug? I've been saying V'sugian, but you're far cleverer than I.

Aww, nothing?

The phrase "story feats" has piqued my interest.

So, it's well established that you... aren't a fan of the Summoner. I'm just curious what your favorite class introduced by pathfinder is (like magus or witch, etc.)?

Been working on this idea for a base class for a while now. Gonna suck it up and put it out for people to see. :) Lemme know what you think

Wandering Artist

I'm curious is this supposed to be an NPC for a game you GM, or an actual PC?

It's an actual PC. I've got a veeeery lenient GM. :)

Thanks guys. :)

For all of them, the moto: Delivering to you the rewards you so justly deserve! {add evil laugh sound effect}

You have no idea how much I LOVE that motto

I'm starting up a new character this week, a tiefling lawyer named Proculus. Proculus is actually employed by a powerful devil, meaning his law firm is in Hell.

I would LOVE to make some dorky little business cards for Proculus, but I need help coming up with a name for his law firm. Help?

and so far all we have are plants that like to eat elven flesh and one that likes human and elf flesh....

but no predatory humanoid or animal that craves elf flesh..... or halfling flesh...... or what not

I believe in Dungeon Denizens Revisited, it talks about how the Bulette especially likes the taste of halflings, so there's another one.

I've never quite understood why golems have that weird immunity to magic quality to them (other than the age-old reason of "because they did it in older versions of the game). Do you know of any in-world reasons for this immunity or should I just kinda hand wave it as a quirk of the process for making the golem?

I just wanted to mention just how much I (and everybody else here, I'm sure) appreciate your continued vigilance on this thread. I'm constantly impressed by just how well you manage to keep up on the thread even though I know everybody at Paizo must be drowning in work. Thanks for keeping it up. :)

I just finished an asian art history class, which managed to single-handedly turn the wayang into one of my favorite races. That new picture certainly doesn't hurt that opinion. :D

Of the two, I think inquisitor fits the campaign best (for reasons already mentioned). However, I do really like the idea of somebody going out into the woods armed almost entirely with bombs; it doesn't sound like there'd be much wood left once you've gone through. :)

We're a pretty relatively new group, so we've had more of a chance to let the newer classes shine alongside the older ones.

1. Magus
2. Cleric
3. Fighter

I will fully disclose that the magus on that list is almost entirely because of a single player in the group. For whatever reason, only one of her characters has been something OTHER than a magus.

This makes me very happy indeed. :) Thank you

As a HUGE Godzilla fan, I become ridiculously excited whenever I sniff out a mention of kaiju. I know you guys have said you don't plan to show kaiju as monsters until after you have the higher-than-level-20 thing figured out (a decision I firmly agree with).

However, I recently discovered a mention of kaiju in the Dragom Empires Gazetteer! Again, I understand entirely if there hasn't been any thought put towards Golarion's kaiju, but I am curious what they may eventually turn out to be like.

Do you think they're just really really big animals with weird powers, or do you think they'll eventually end up a little more... alien?

I would just like to point out that her legs are NOT double jointed as people are saying. I don't know the fancy terms for it or anything, but the way cats walk, it's more like they're walking on their toes. That long lower part of their leg is similar to our feet.

I BELIEVE. I'm not 100% sure. I do know that's how horses and other similarly-legged creatures are.

Whoops, forgot to put in my vote. We MUST SEE A DHAMPIR eventually.

Let me tell you, I am LOVING this trend toward giving races spell-like abilities through feats. I think it adds some really interesting flavor to possible characters.

Is there a patron deity of the arts other than Shelyn? Or is she pretty much the only god that all the painters and drama-kids might pray to before a big show?

So, now that we have the three big Books of the Damned, what are the chances of ever seeing more made? Like... a Book specifically about Rakshasa? I know it's probably niche-y, but you guys would do an awesome job, for sure.

Funny thing about the tarrasque...

I've been trying to fit the tarrasque into an AP since Age of Worms. Sometimes, he sticks in there until nearly the end (he almost saw an appearance in Savage Tide, and then again in Runelords, and then again in Legacy of Fire, and then again in Kingmaker), but it usually ends up being, "The tarrasque is too spicy. The AP needs to be ABOUT the tarrasque if he's gonna show up. We'll do the tarrasque AP next time." And then next time rolls around and we get distracted by pirates or ninjas or drow or whatever.

I would individually marry every single person who works for Paizo if it meant I could have a Godzilla movie AP about the Terrasque.

It's strange that Walkena hasn't shown up as on official lesser deity anywhere (that I'm aware of). Do we have any domains for Walkena as of yet, or...?
