One thing that was not delt with in Humans of Golarion is characters who are of "mixed" ethnicities - such as a character who is half Chelaxian and Half-Varisian. Or for that matter "new" ethnicities such as Brevic (which is a mixing of Taldan, Kellid, and Ulfen/Iobarian), but has been stable enough to count as a new "ethnic group." There is not real guidance on how humans such as these should be handled (rules wise).
Okay, who's taking bets on which Runelord(s), if any, will make a personal appearance? :D Okay then ... But, we know that there were seven Runelords. That still leaves three unaccounted for.
Hmmmm ...
Okay, who's taking bets on which Runelord(s), if any, will make a personal appearance? :D But ... It is true that you now have art for Alaznist, Sorshen, and Xanderghul .So that might be a hint ... Spoiler:
That said, more Adventures/APs with Superscience would still be most welcome. :)
The Shattered Star can be related to the Starstone? :D That would be another great idea to go off this title, but might be a little "high level" for the average AP. Further, I do not forsee them setting an AP in Absolom, mostly because that is the "home base" of the Pathinder Society (Organized Play).
"I belive he just ceased his struggles against my mental commands to shoot you".V has probably never picked up a weapon a day in his life. Besides A) Sneak attack and B) He's busy carrying his new ally around. That is one of the best quotes from a strip that is already full of awesome quotes!
...shipThe real pity is that the title () would have worked great for a Numeria centered AP. :(
And I can't speak for anyone else, but my reaction to Ultimate Equipment is, who cares? I have Adventurer's Armory and don't see any value in an updated version. In fact, UE is the first Paizo product that I have absolutely no interest in purchasing.Though that's the same way I feel about UM and UC. I have the core rulebook, so who cares? (Admitedly, APC is so good I use some classes from it, but otherwise I never understood "Yeah, more splatbooks!") Actually, even the announcement of "The Shattered Star" (which could have been awesome - in Numeria) ended up being kind of a "let down." :(
Maybe there'll be another version of stats for brass knuckles. Gotta catch 'em all!It's funny because it's true. Spoiler:
Just like "Paladins of Asmodeus" is an illustration of the difference between Jacobs and SKR when it comes to design. ;D And I can't speak for anyone else, but my reaction to Ultimate Equipment is, who cares?

"Negotiation is hard with an enemy that keeps trying to set you or himself on fire." - Sun Tzu the lost dialogues. While true, remember "Crazy, not Stupid." I think that LeadPal may be on to something. If the party is able to negotiate, perhaps the Goblin Chieften might demand that he heroes "clean out the cave" in exchange for passage through his territory.
No battle plan survives contact with the enemy. -- Colin Powell When the heroes go to the Brinestump Marsh in The Brinewall Legacy, they may have a reaction that seems unanticipated by the adventure.
or or even, What if the player heroes try to bargan with the Goblins rather then fight them?
Yes, I am running Rise of the Runelords (converting to PathfinderRPG of course). Yes, I already have the Magic of Thassilon.
I was looking for even more that my players are unlikely to have seen already (as they don't really look too much at 3rd Party stuff.). :)
The player characters in my current campaign are about to enter an ancient ruin (The Runeforge) and by the flavor there should be quite a bit of lost magic treasures and lore ... While the adventure does what supply some, what I am looking for are some additional spells and magic items to flesh them out. Can people recommend a few (PathfinderRPG Compatable) 3rd Party Products that would help with this theme of "Forgotton Magics from a Lost Civilization"?

T.M.I. Way T.M.I.! :D Vampires don't sparkle. ... but "Mortal Chicks really dig this look!"
Assuming my recollection isn't faulty, it was the episode where a woman did a bodyswap with Kirk to take over command. I also remember that it was Dr. Janice Lester who said that. Not the most rational or trustworthy of individuals. Even so, you may be right. (I will need to re-watch this episode to be sure.)
Well sure, I mean there was the episode that said that women couldn't be captains in TOS and I think we all would dismiss it. But I was talking more about things that directly reflect upon the historical events in the "later" series. I mean if Enterprise gets a transwarp drive and visits the delta quadrant and fights off a squad of Jem'Hadar somewhere I might be a bit disappointed.It's a bit of a hard fit. Star Trek:TOS was produced by men who's attitudes date pretty much from the '50's and it drew a lot from that generation's fairly right-wing and patriarchal world-view. The attitudes of TOS especially toward's women would not have flown well with a modern audience. So you do have to make some allowances for that. Which episode of the TOS or TAS was that? I have watched them all, several times, and they never said anything of the kind. (Admittedly, the 1967 TV networks would never have allowed it in the show, but it was never actually a part of the setting.)
By the way, do you realize that this isn't true? The reboot movie happens in a damaged timeline. Spock's traveling to Romulus with the Red Matter is predicated on the events from Star Trek: Nemesis. So, for that to happen, all the original continuity is still valid in the "original" or "Prime" timeline.
I apologize for the mistake, I have put a replacement map pack in your side cart to be shipped with your next subscription shipment. Wonderful! What do you want me to do with the book ?
I'd rather they finish out the APG iconics first. I'm starting to think those three get absolutely no love there at Paizo. First, they've been pushed back month after month. Then Valeros got the do-over treatment. Then some cavalier archtype jumped the line and got his spotlight before his book was even published. Then some crazy b&+@$ threated to shoot JJ if she didn't get her segment NOW! Now you guys want to let Miss Illusionary Floatation Device have round 2 before the awesome Inquisitor, the mystical Summoner, and the hottest Witch this side of Idina Menzel.Can't we have both? Unfortunately, no. Appearently, Mr. Jacobs has all of his writers pretty booked up, so finding someone to compose a quality Iconic backstory is not as simple as it sounds. So, with that constraint, we need to help try to set their priorities. (And, quite simply, the APG Iconics deserve their time in the Sun.)
Dear Paizo, My order (#1750757) was supposed to have
But, instead of
I would really like the Map Pack I ordered (through my subscription), but I would like to know how you want me to return the Pathfinder Tales book. :) Thank You Carl Flaherty Also: strangely, the package did not contain a shipping manifest.
Overrated. She wasn't even the best looking of the orignal batch of iconics from the CRB, and when Feiya came on the scene, Seoni had to even give up the title of "best-ooking arcane full-caster". Plus Lini and Feiya have actual and cool animal companions/familiars, unlike Seoni...who claims to have a pathetic little lizard that nobody's ever actually seen. It's sad when the best you can do for an imaginary friend is a small reptile. You are dead to me. :P
Nah, the biggest problem with that movie was the Vulcan Science Council sending a vat of material the size of an oversized beach ball, any one drop of which was capable of creating a black hole. I mean these guys are supposed to be some of the smartest people in the universe.That explains everything, I bet no one else at Paizo could continue to work with someone who thought destroying vulcan was a good idea ;-> My other problems are with that as well. ... unless of course, that much Red Matter would have destroyed the Universe. In which case, why did he have that much in the first place.
Edited for accuracy.Only in the JJ Abrams movie and slash fanfics!But Trek posts are offtopic in this forum... also, Spock sucks.Which part of Owen's post wasn't exactly clear for you guys?The part where people are trying to derail the "Argue about Star Trek" thread part. You are correct. Thank you for catching that.
The king, for his part, sent over about 50 men ahead of us to set up a camp and be murdered by kobolds. Only about 20 of these men were still alive when we arrived to the island and none of them ever leave the camp or seem to do anything productive. The only guy in the camp with a name is the king's third cousin's nephew's mother's hairdresser's adopted son from a fourth marriage or something and all he does is sit in his tent while making fun of poor people. The only sort of healer the camp has access to is a level 1 adept who seems to be terrified of work, other people and magic. It sould awesome the way you describe it. Pity that the GM was not witty enough to pull this off (... it could have been really funny).
That's between Hyrum and ourselves. Sorry.I don't think Borders' closing will have a noteworthy impact on Paizo, immediate or long-term. Also, we've actually *hired* several new employees in the past few months.So Hyrum left of his own accord? So, let us hijack the remainder of this thread to argue about Star Trek! ;P
Then it must be true! Someone did meet Lisa Stevens's price, and she is buying her privite island!
Hmmm ... is this a prelude to introducing the much requested EPIC level rules? :)
Is there a solution that allows us to keep the incentive based spirit of capitalism, and also make sure that the ones in our country that need assistance get it without breaking the bank or relying on 1% of the populace to foot the bill? Because then tax accountants and lawyers would be out of a job. :)
For a character with a +0 BAB two weapon fighting is mainly an opportunity to miss twice. At first level weapon focus with one weapon is probably a better bet.Actually, for a Rogue, Weapon Finesse might be a better deal (... since most rogues have Dex scores considerable better then their Str scores). I don't believe so. Pathfinder RPG Core Rule Book page 136 does not list any prerequists with the Weapon Finesse feat. Has there been an errata that I don't know about?

One thing you might consider, if you feel the wizard/witch needs a "boost" is to simply place a scrolls in the lower level treasures. (Since the only real problem I have found for wizards is lack of selection at lower levels.) Sorcerers can still use those scrolls as extra spells - something that will help them at lower levels almost as much as it does the wizrad/witch (who will add the spell to their book/familiar). If you are still worried about Arcane casters being fragile, make sure that these scrolls are good defensive (and/or movement) spells. I have played many a wizard, and that (lack of choice at lower levels) really is the only "drawback" I have ever encountered. This way, you will not have "changed any rules" in a way that will come back to bite you later when the characters have gained a few levels. No I'm suggesting that if it's reasonable that the wizards and sorcerers have to pay for these abilities, then divine casters should have to do the same.But the divine casters do pay for these abilities. Divine casters can also "pay" in another way. Remember, that they must keep to a certain "ethos" to keep their patron happy - and their patron can also ask them to do the occasional "chore" as well. :)
Here is a better question: Is responding to an alignment thread an evil act? Yes, but I don't believe it is immediately damning. Now, responding more then once would be enough to make someone evil ... ... oh darn!
I suppose this is where I point out that we revealed the NPC levels in a Pathfinder Campaign Setting book and not a Player Companion book, yeah? We did that on purpose so a GM who doesn't want to run with those numbers and doesn't let his players read non-player-friendly books (there are a fair number of campaign "spoilers" in Inner Sea Magic) doesn't have to worry about messing with player expectations. Ummm ... Does that actually work? How is it possible to believe that the wall of GM/Player knowledge could (or even should) be so absolute?
I was going to say it was a chaotic act, since it spreads anarchy and dissension, but I could go with evil too. Perhaps chaotic evil then. :) Starting an alignment thread (including this one) is an act so heinous, that a single instance is all that is required to permanently make one CE.
I think (hope) that they mean stat wise.
Avoiding the strawman for the moment ... An important aside to this issue is "This is how things got this bad in the first place."
Honestly i think it would depend on the setting. I mean HOW inherently evil are goblins in the setting?Default CE Goblins. Kill, maim, burn. Actually, that is the first solid reasion FOR killing Goblin babies that I have seen in this thread.
I disagree. Medicare is on an unsustainable trajectory. (Social Security also needs fixing, but is not quite the house of cards some people believe it to be.) Yes, a "Clean Bill" would have been the best deal in a perfect world. But, Obama's plan, with the "$4 cut to $1 tax increase" it included, was likely the best deal actually possible for regaining control of the debt.
Actually Golarion, at least, is a little more complex then that. Yes, Goblins and Orcs were created by Evil Gods to torment humans; however, they still do have free will.
Of course, this isn't a serious thread, and shouldn't be taken so, or Mikaze will run in and start explaining that I should take care of that Goblin and rise him to become a LG Cleric of Iomedae... ;-) This is a serious thread, and Page 45 of Burt Offerings makes this Pathfidner relevent too. When I ran this, I did charge the party with an "Evil Act" but not enough to change their alignment (the cleric of Sarenrae needed to atone though).
