Hi just wondering if anyone here would have any idea how Tieflings are viewed and treated in the shackles and whether one would be accepted as a pirate captain in the shackles?

Not sure if anyone else is getting this problem but when I enter Pbp I'm a player in none of the posts appear (To clarify the menu tabs for discusion etc appear but none of the actual posts.)

Just a random thought that came into my head but how possible is it to be able set it up so that characters can choose to do none lethal rather than lethal damage?

As the title says looking for suggestions for replacement module's/adventures for wake of the watcher and idea's would be welcome.

I'm interested in this product but I am wondering if it is possible to get just the adventure in PDF form?

I seem to recall somewhere there being a bloodline for doing a Rakasha sorceror but cannot quite remember where (suspect it was either Kobold Quaterly or Wayfinder but not sure) If someone could tell me where to find it I would be most greatfull.

Please cancel my Pathfinder tales subscription

Thank you

First I would like to say I am really enjoying this Ap's Pathfinder Journal one of the best ones I have read so far. On to my actual question In part 5 of the Journal the main antagonist Brachante has the ability to draw powers from creatures in his menagerie I was just wondering how someone would be able to represent this within the rules? would it be a magic item? a spell? or a supernatural ability? any and all answers or suggestions would be welcome.

This is probably nothing but when my order went through I got everything except the ap volume. Yesterday I noticed I for some reason had 2 single file copies of book of the dammed in my downloads so I am just checking in case that was supposed to be my Ap volume but somehow got mixed up with book of the dammed.

Going to be honest. Not happy at all at the way this has been handled. You want more people to be reporting scenarios? fine but dont do it in a way that punishes people who cant play sosiety games. Also bribing people in order to increase the number of sosiety reports is in my opinion not the way to go about things.

Just voicing a thought I had when I was looking over the background and mechanics of the class. Now the Magus as I understand it is supposed to combine Arcan study along with martial training and it seems that it would make sence that diffrent magus's would focus on diffrent things (diffrent weapon combinations, some favoring the spell part slightly over the martial and vice versa etc). It also seems a bit odd giving them proficency with all weapons save exotic but then having a main ability that limits you to a particular set.

So what I was thinking was maybe introducing diffrent fighting styles in the same manner as a Ranger gets (ie feat chains that give you abilities for your chosen style) and perhaps take it a little further for instance one combat style gives you the spell combat ability another one gives you a diffrent ability for a two handed weapon etc.

I just want to check this since I don't see how it could possibly be right as written. In Howl of the carrion king there is a creature called a schir which apparently has the ability to potentially summon up to another 3 of it's kind. Is this correct or is it supposed to summon something else since I can not think of any outsiders that can summon up another 3 of themselves. (normally it is either 1 of itself or multiple weaker ones)

Was wondering if anyone could give me advice on how much to change the Cr on a paladin that has fallen Character is going to be about lvl 14-15 ish and have the warerat template (afflicted)

When a barbarian uses the animal fury power to gain a bite attack if he dosent have a weapon does that mean it counts as a primary attack (Full attack full str to damage etc) I seem to remember one of the Paizo staff saying it does but I'm not 100% sure.

Just been reading through the thrice dammed prince (great book by the way) and something seems very off about Melavingian's CR it says he is CR 14 but a barbed devil's cr is 11 then throwing in 7 lvl's of cleric (even taking into account the -1 to cr which im not sure applies in this case seems to indicate to me he should be a cr 17 creature. Am I missing something about all this?

Hey there I have a question about how possession points work. I know PP is based on the posse sing devils Hd but I was wondering if there was a limit to the way the PP points can be used. If I use an ability are those Pp used up or is it just a limit on the total number of things I can do with them?

For example If I were to use 3PP to Defile body the next round could i then put those PP into say Subversive or would I have to wait to get the points back?

Hi I'm currently looking for a Ppb on the Paizo forums for this character to take part in.

Hi this is probably nothing but I just thought I would ask to make sure. In Order # 1270398 my seeker of secrets was separated so that the rest could ship (Thanks again for that) now it keeps appearing in my sidecart instead of pending so I'm wondering if I have to do anything else or will it ship normally?

Thank you again for your time

Not sure if this has already been covered or not but my order is supposed to be the bestiary, book of the damned and seeker of secrets. Seeker of secrets is as far as I'm aware running a week late so rather than wait for it I would rather the other two books were shipped and that one shipped when it became available.

Thank you for your time.

I'm planning on running COT at some point and I have a player who wants to play a Tiefling Paladin of Iomedae. Basically I'm just wondering if she would accept a Tiefling? I ask since her writeup in Pathfinder 26 says she loathes Fiend-spawn.

I'm just wondering if in any of the later parts of the adventure path there will be artwork of any of the other children of Westcrown members besides the two main one's or any detailed descriptions on what they look like?

As the title says does a smite evil get multiplyed on a critical hit and where in the Pfrpg book does it mention this.

This may be answered by the hellknight article in the adventure path but I was hoping for an early heads up. Are there any limits on what races can and cant be hellknights? Which ones are more likely (I mean besides humans) and any that wouldn't really be Hellknights.

Hi I'm just wondering if anyone could tell me what the standard issue arems and armour for A korvosan guard are. Thanks in advance

My order for Taldor echoes of glory, the great beyond and adventure path issue 22 have not arrived and its been over 36 days.

Title says it all really

Hi In Pathfinder 21 the mysterious captain if you carry out that certain task for him gives you a tuning fork and it says it explains its use in Pathfinder 22 but I cant seem to find a reference anywhere so if someone could please explain what it is for I would be very great full.

Hoping someone can help me with a little problem I'm having. I seem to remember there being a form with shipping dates somewhere on the forum but I've searched high and low and cant seem to find it so if someone could provide me with a link or tell me how to get to it I would be very greatfull.

Hi everyone me and my group plan to play savage through the savage tide adventure path one of my players says he wants to play a shadowcaster. I don't have the tome of magic so I'm just wondering if shadowcaster is overpowered or underpowered.

Thanks in advance

As the title says I have a rather interesting problem. At the end of endless night my group got to the portal and defeated the drow as planned. What I never expected was for them to take the second son prisoner and take him through the portal with them.
I'm really not sue how to run the path with this little wrench in the monkey works so any suggestions would be great.

Hi I tried to put this up in the pathfinder general discussion but for some reason its not allowing me to create new threads so ill put it here.
As the title says I'm curious at what the iconics ages are (I mean all the iconics not just the second darkness ones). If its possible would someone be able to tell me the ages of the Iconics in human equivalent years?

Thank you for your time

Hi In a short time I'll be dming second darkness. After talking it over with my group They want to try and do an all evil party. Now the group have done evil party's before so I know they can do it with no trouble. What I am wondering is if I would have any really big problems running the adventure as written for an evil group?

The evil group as it stands now (subject to change)

Half elf dread necromancer
Tiefling barbarian (Necromancers half sister)
Changeling monk who will eventually go into assassin
Human Hexblade

Hi I'm just wondering if anyone at Paizo could tell me if the flesh warped creatures are going to be stand alone creatures or a template since I plan to have an Npc char in the campaign I'm going to run be flesh warped. If its not a template would it be possible to point me towards something I could use as a template since the NPC will be a non standard race (catfolk).

Thank you for your time

Well after 3 months of intense roll playing my group have completed Curse of the crimson Throne from simple street thugs to red mantis assasisns to devils spawned from hell itself all have been defeated, with very few casulties in return (Only two Pc deaths entire campaign one against the final boss.)

Anyway a heartfelt thank you to the entire Paizo team and there contributers for making such an excellant high quality adventure path that my players all enjoyed playing through and I enjoyed dming.

I want to start subscribing to the pathfider chronicals but whenever i select the subscription option I end up getting the campaign setting book as well which is a problem since ive already orderd a copy and its already shipped and I dont need two copies of it. Is there a way to get the subscription without getting the Campaighn book or should I just hold off ordering for now?

Hi I pre-orderd the campign setting book and it seems that the book is available for buying but it is still in my cart as a pending item. Also will a PDF be available when my order goes through? Thank you for your time

In the same theme as the other adventure path obituarie threads. Please post all your Pc, Cohort, Animal companion/familiar deaths here. every now and again ill do a running total of the death count.

For my Cotct campaign one of my characters had the unhappy childhood trait but I alterd it so that it wasent just Lamn but rather him and another NPC of my own creation that he wanted revenge on (NPC killed his family except him and his younger sister, he got grabbed by lamn whilst the sister ended up being found and raised by Trina) Now I was planning to have them meet for there final confrontation at the end of History of ashes. Now for the actual fight it will be the Player (a Catfolk barbarian) and his cohort (catfolk sorcerous who happens to be his little sister) against the NPC (Human duskblade.). The barbarian and soreror were built using the pathfinder Alpha rules for classes and should be abou lvl 12 and 11 when they finaly confront him.

So my question is what lvl can I make the Npc duskblade (using the pathfinder alpha race rules and the duskblade class from Players handbook 2) to make him a very challenging fight but still beatable?

Just thought I would do my good deed for the day and let everyone know that the errata for the 4E books is up at http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/updates

Well was getting Pathfinder 10 in my sidecart Like a lot of other people so i decided to try and change my shipment methoods. Problem is it removed it from my side cart and disapeared completly so im worried ive somehow erased the order or something.

Looking to join one of the play by post groups. Erm im kind of new at doing this so I cant think of anything else to add

During the point of my campaign one of my players is planning on getting a cohort (the catfolk barbarian player) Which because of background is going to be his long lost little sister. My plan is to have her start off as an advesary of the group (What im doing is macking it she was unofically adopted by Trina Sabor who she looks upon as a big sister. So she is going to show up during the shingles chase to try and help Trina get away) Anyway I would like advice on what class to make her? Her background to me indicates rogue but the party already has a full on one and a cross class one so i'd like suggestions of other possible classes

Well im about to start this adventure path with my grou and im wanting some advice or sugestion's on anything I should alter due to the party makeup in all cases where they are available i am using the pathfinder classes and pathfinder race modifiers.

The party is as follows

A catfolk barbarian
A human fighter who uses several feats from the pschycic handbook
A Kobold rogue
A Kobold Bard
and a half/elf sorceror/rogue

In Pathfinder 8 it mentions that Rolth if he escapes will try and get revenge in the next chapter and there would be notes for including him in Pathfinder 9 well i cant seem to find the notes anywhere soim wondering if someone could point them out for me

Cheers

Ps if my post appears twice it dddent seem to show up the first time so i posted it again

In pathfinder 8 it mentions that If Rolth escapes he will try to get his revenge in escape from old Korvosa and it says there are notes for adding him in. well i cant seem to find the notes so im wondering if someone could point them out for me in cae ive missed them?

Recently i was doing Ravenloft as a campaign for my players. During the expansion part diseased one of my party members (A female wildhunt shifter Ranger) decided to track the infected warewolves (who had fled from combat) whilst the others headed back to town to find more information out that way. The ranger got as far as the crossroads (ahead of two of the diseased warewolves i should add) where for a random encounter she ran into a group of three regular none diseased warewolves.

After some appaling bad luck with her hide and move silently roles she ended up in combat with them and after a fairly long combat was able to kill the three warewolves. However during it she took enough damage so that when she killed the last warewolf and her shifting ended she dropped down to -1 hp but stabalised.

So now she is lying in the middle of the crossroads out cold with two of the diseased warewolves coming up behind her. Now what im wondering is if they should just kill her or maybe take her prisoner and if they should take her prisoner ways to go about restraining her and the like?
