I purchased the pdf and I thoroughly enjoyed the excellent work put into making this concept work. I actually found this while pondering how on earth to make a Bilbo Baggins-style character work (he's called a burglar, but he just makes good use of magical equipment and tactical thinking--he's exactly the kind of character you could make with this book!).

I do have a question for the author, and I hope you can find the time to get back to me on it. If not, that's understandable, but I was wondering about your process on coming up with jobs, and the possibility of extrapolating your process out to new jobs. For instance, I can't imagine that being a forester is outside of the purview of a commoner. Similarly, an author or a barrister. Is there some kind of rule of thumb you kept in mind for coming up with the expanded class skill lists and commoner weapon choices for these jobs, or did you just wing it? It seems well-planned, and I would greatly appreciate some tips on that if you have any!

Thanks for the hard work that was obviously put into this product. I think it's exactly what my gaming group could use as a vacation from Paizo adventure paths like Wrath of the Righteous (in fact, it's the exact opposite and I love it)!

You let the magic smoke out? You need to be careful, it's really tricky to catch all that smoke and put it back in.

Hi Sadie, thanks for the sheets. Will you be making the new hybrid classes in the future? :)

Check the previous page; the beta sheets for the hybrid classes are there.

I'm a little late to this, but after reading up I'm confused about your reasoning regarding Lesser Planar Ally. That is a divine spell, but you recommend playing as an arcane caster. How were you planning on getting this spell as a wizard?

I think it's a typo/miss-thought - he should have written 'Lesser Planar Binding'. Douglas wrote a whole series of these and is pretty clear throughout about the superiority of Planar Binding over Planar Ally and how that is the main difference between an arcane diabolist and a divine one.

That's what I thought, though now I am wondering how he gained Lesser Planar Ally as a spell at 7th level when a wizard can't cast 5th level spells until 9th level. The guides look fantastic, even if these fundamental assumptions throw me for a loop.
