As such, I've launched a patreon to see if we can do that. Previously, I used patreon to help fund part of Monsters of Porphyra II but it wasn't sustainable to do MoP 3.

So instead, let's focus on trying to pay our writers better. If you want to support our authors you can find our patreon here.


Aaron Hollingsworth has written a new supplement for us.
------------------------------------------------------------------

Vigilantes of Horror- Fated to be a Monstrous Vigilante!

Cursed, cursed creator! Why did I live? Why, in that instant, did I not extinguish the spark of existence which you had so wantonly bestowed? I know not; despair had not yet taken possession of me; my feelings were those of rage and revenge. I could with pleasure have destroyed the cottage and its inhabitants and have glutted myself with their shrieks and misery.

- Frankenstein, Chapter 16, by Mary Shelley (Frankenstein’s Monster)

From the exciting new horror and intrigue supplements, adventure gamers can experience a whole new type of gaming- but why not take it further? Why not adventure as… a monstrous vigilante? Vigilantes of Horror by Aaron Hollingsworth and published by Purple Duck Games brings you great new options for vigilante play in horror settings! In this new product, check out 7 new vigilante archetypes, including; the electrifying Corpseborne (Frankenstein), the savage Loup Garou (Wolfman), the terrifying Mummified (the Mummy), the sinister Podthing (Body Snatchers), aquatic Reefling (Creature from the Black Lagoon), bloodsucking Vampiryst (Dracula) and steadily unstable Vanished (the Invisible Man). Along with these fun archetypes is more useful material for monstrous vigilantes: 9 new social talents, over 60 new vigilante talents, a list of powerful vendettas, and 6 new magically thematic magic items. Get with the fun and get Vigilantes of Horror from the monstrous malcontents at Purple Duck Games, where our games are what you want!

I have been pretty backlogged lately and haven't gotten many new things uploaded to the Paizo store but I found the time to make sure Carl's newest book:

Psychic Disciplines of Porphyra was uploaded.

This is how Perry describes it:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Explore the Endless Vistas of the Battlefield that is the Mind!

The tantalizing mysteries of the powerful practitioners that are Psychics can be summarized in the Psychic Disciplines that they pursue. The vistas of the mind are almost as vast as the multiverse, and even the Patchwork Planet of Porphyra has its unique disciplines to marvel at, presented in Purple Duck Games' Psychic Disciplines of Porphyra, in a new release!

Behold the illuminating Aura discipline, and that of ego-manifesting Cathexis and its myriad of id-monsters; fight on the cerebral battlefield with the Duelist discipline, and use your weapons to best advantage with the Kata discipline. Merge body and mind with the discipline of Yoga, and heal the sick in defiance of custom with the Psychic Surgeon discipline. All are detailed, with interesting backgrounds, in Psychic Disciplines of Porphyra, written by Carl Cramér. Get it today from the psychic sycophants at Purple Duck Games, where our games are what you want!

This is how I describe it:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Psychic Disciplines of Porphyra is similar to our Monstrous Bloodlines for Sorcerers series. This simple PDF contains 6 new psychic disciplines for the occult class of the same name.

This volume: Aura, Cathexis, Duelist, Kata, Psychic Surgeon, Yoga

We hope you pick up this release, Carl is eager to write more in this series if sales support it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Which is probably why I don't write the solicitation text.

I have a number of other products that haven't gotten up for sale here on Paizo, I will try to correct that this weekend.

While N. Jolly is solicting ideas for Kineticists of Porphyra III, we thought we would take this time to get his newest book up for sale.

Legendary Classes: Eternal Mage is a new base class.

Here is what Perry wrote as marketing text.

With the arcane power of Eternity, nothing can stand in your way!

New from Purple Duck Games, the amazing arcane spellcaster class of the eternal mage in Legendary Classes: Eternal Mage by N. Jolly! Eternal mages are not limited by memorizing spells, like wizards, or “spells per day” like other spontaneous classes- if they can manage the strain on their own arcane wellspring of power, there is no limit to the manifestations of power they can produce! Legendary Classes: Eternal Mage includes full class description for a 20-level class, many “eternal secrets” for customizing the powers for your eternal mage, 3 archetypes to choose from such as artillery expert, dread eternal and master specialist, a prepared 1st level sample character, and favored class bonuses from all of the races promoted by the Lands of Porphyra campaign setting!

Check out Legendary Classes: Eternal Mage from the immortal idiots at Purple Duck Games, where our games are what you want!

Come the the Lands of Porphyra!


From the pen of Carl Cramer comes the Quartermaster!

The quartermaster is a mundane class based on skills, but plays more like a wizard than a rogue, constantly staying one step ahead of the enemy. With unparalleled flexibility, they always have just the item needed, and alter each situation to their own benefit. A quartermaster improvises new uses for gear, and fakes advanced materials and alchemical devices. Their skills turns the enemy's devices against them and battlefield into one big hazard zone. Being well supplied never was this good!

A new class from Carl Cramér author of Warrior Prestige Archetypes and Legendary Classes: Sacerdote.

Available Now!

Some extra exclamation points for effect!!!!


Following in the path of N. Jolly's Kineticist Codex, we have just released a Codex of Alchemists for the Lands of Porphyra Campaign Setting.

I discuss it a bit on my blog.

It is now available at Paizo.


We have just released a new prestige archetype. This time it is based on the sighted seeker psionic PRC by Dreamscarred Press.
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Sighted Seeker is a 20-level based class created from the psionic prestige class of the same name. It contains aspects of the marksman class, ranger class, and sighted seeker class.

This prestige archetype is a full base attack bonus class that is excellent at finding specific individuals using not only active tracking abilities, but of reading the latent knowledge of nearby creatures to seek out their quarry.

It also contains favored class bonuses for the primary psionic races and the Porphyra psionic races and a sample character Tikki Mancatcher, a blue sighted seeker at levels 1, 5, 10, and 15.

What is a Prestige Archetype?

A prestige archetype is a prestige class turned into a normal 20-level class, similar to an archetype or alternate class.

The goal when making these prestige archetypes has been to capture the flavor of the prestige class rather than to make an exact copy of how it would normally be. Attack bonuses, hit dice, class skills, spells, and class features have been unified and spread evenly over levels. This means that most prestige archetypes have their prestige abilities spread over the entire 20 level spread. Unlike how prestige classes normally work, these archetypes have a few complete class abilities rather than many abilities limited to a low level. In some cases, you get the choice of one of several class abilities rather than stymied versions of all the abilities.

A prestige archetype generally has elements of one or more regular character classes, to represent how prestige prerequisites were met and character development after the prestige class has ended. Sometimes there is more than one class that naturally leads itself to a particular prestige class, which can lead to several different prestige archetypes for different combinations. A few are not built on a regular class, instead expanding the idea behind the prestige class to a full 20 levels.

Hopefully it will available soon at Paizo. But for now you can find it at Rpgnow.


Over at Rpgnow we have added print options for:

- FT 2.5 Three Nights in Portsmouth (DCC)
- Orcam of Porphyra
- Warrior Prestige Archetypes

If there is something else you would like to see in print let me know.
