I just ordered the book, so thanks for posting this.
And the red they use is King Daralathaxyl? Not the Darkmoon Vale Daralathaxyl, is he?
Yes, Daralathyxl from the Darkmoon Vale.
BTW... concerning Daralathyxl's stats...
In the stat block it says 3 spells of 8th level have been cast, but the list of spells in the tactics only show 2. Mind Blank has not been cast and is not in the Stat block reflected... then it should be 2 spells already cast.
+ in the Tactics section "spell turning" is used, but it is not in his spell list.

Look here:
Dungeon #99
I don't know, if this adventure was highly appreciated (I remember some posts about calling it a colelction of small adventures, but not really a big campaign).
Another thing might be a Quest for the "Rod of Seven Parts" as told in the box for AD&D 2e. But there may be a conversion around somewhere.

I might have to chime in for my overeager pixie.
That b) option is a maybe-thing.
It may happen, but it also might not.
Thank you all for the well wishes.
Until then,
Oliver

Hi all,
I may have posted a bit on the boards, but my posts for the last 4 months are still countable with all your digits.
So, what happened?
Many things happened at once:
1) My company has started blocking IP's (not yet Paizo, but I think it will only be a matter of time, but Wizards, EN World, Goodman Games, Green Ronin, not available any more)
2) My company is shrinking from 750 to 480 people. And it seems the IT is not spared, but gets a heavy heavy cut, too.
3) My fiancee had a small stroke on the 28th of May. She is now home again from 1 week in the hospital and 6 weeks in rehab. We were lucky. She has no paralysis, no memory loss, no speech impediment, but she still has bouts of dizziniess and her vision is missing a "sector".
4) I am getting more and more involved in the translation of Pathfinder to German. (Can't tell you more, but we are very excited)
5) We have moved into our new house, and there is still so much to do in and around the building.
6) My daughter's just been introduced into school.
If it would have been only one or two of those things, that happened in the last four months, I would still be posting happily as Malik in your game (which I love madly, Nevyn, you do a great job here).
As far as I can see, I may be able to post again more frequently, when the tumultous times in our company will have settled down a bit and my workload in the translation projects will be not as high as it is now.
So basically, I will have to drop (and realisctically already have dropped) out of the game.
I'd love to rejoin, when my situation's got a bit better.

Is there something wrong with the stat block of "Anwa of the soft step"?
In the stats her STR and DEX are listed as 10 and 18.
But the CMB is one higher than the BAB, and the armor bonus due to Dex is given as +3 Dex.
btw. I like that the Dodge bonus from the feat Dodge is already worked into the AC rating.

Great news! Congratulations!
I know you took a risk in ordering an amount of books as high as you did.
Thus a sellthrough ten days before street date is such a big news: I think you will sell the big book at GenCon with big grins on your face. ("Yes, we are proud of this book." "Here, buy what we have been working on for the last 18 months".)
Will the second printing include the errata?

Sigh, won't be able to come to Paizocon UK this year. Definitely not. I hope next year, but the weekend of the con will be
a) the first weekend my fiancee will be home from rehab after 4 weeks and a weeklong stay in the hospital before and
b) a weekend scheduled with a visit to my daughter (though who will visit whom is not yet clear).
Either one of those trumps going to Paizocon in a heartbeat.
Next year... hopefully next year...

My group had a great time in that adventure, but the most difficult encounter has been "Glimmaxe" combined with those bloodthirsty ones in the other room after running low on healing, but continuing on anyway, as one of them got infected in the "magnetic" room.
I ruled, that there was a scroll of the remedy with the body of Marten, the cleric of the previous group, now in the hands of some hungry ones.
That scroll (or even two of them) in the mod would have really helped (that plus a mention of the big bad later being a member of that group, but disappearing in the lower level - the rescued bard may tell of that).
Btw. I even made a third verse for the Ballad of Glimmaxe (plus a haunting melody).
3rd verse:
So many heroes have followed this tale,
Venturing forth in sun or in hail.
None have returned, their prayer’s been spurned
How many faces will his shining axe pale?
