Nice going gentlemen. Twenty Infernal Fiends.

Now how about some more (cut for lack of space) info on the Dukes of Perdition and Hell's magnates to whom even pit fiends bend thier knees.

Where do I start??
Cheliax baron arem heshvaun (Pathfinder Adventure Path, Pathfinder Companion Subscriber),

Welcome aboard frank !

Cookies and the crazies will be here shortly.

I would start here.

Oh look, we three ne're-do-wells on the same page. Good times.

Hello Sara,

Please restart my Pathfinder Chronicles subscription with Book of the Damned.

My next subscription shipment (Paizo Order #1295020) is about to ship, can I please have Book of the Damned and Seekers of Secrets ship with that order ?

Alternatively, if I should be requesting that the items be mailed seperately with the next AP I would not mind waiting or if the order is split among two AP shipments.

Thanks for your continued help !

... king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair ...

"I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word.
Now in the morning I sleep alone,
Sweep the streets I used to own"

"I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
'Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!' "

King Conan eat your heart out.

Favorite Spell, and why?

I can't take credit for it but our high level PFS Summoner has a series of spells that he builds up to what he calls "Wall of Rhino".

Me, I'm a grognard so good old Quickened Black Tentacles followed by Spell Focus and Greater Spell Focus, Empowered Fireball (with Maximized Wand).

Would you like fries with that ?

Edit: In 1st ed, NOTHING beat Shapechange. Shapechage up to 10 times in the same round.

'Six 8 + 8 (hit die + hit point) balors you say ? I shapechange to a Banshee and wail (save vs death please), I then shapechange to a greater bassilisk as they look to see what attacked them and look at them (save vs petrification please), and finally shape change to a Iron Golem as they come towards me, I need thier fire to heal me from the earlier encounter of me beating up the Tarrasque. Yep all in the same round please.

Living in Manhattan can make one jaded ($9 beers, $15 mixed drinks, anyone) but even London gave me pause ($60 taxi, ouch).

Of the major cities I have visited only Tokyo may give London a run for the money in ... spending your money. Although I heard Moscow is up there as well.

Good luck Erik !! I put in two bids and sent the link to friends.

And just have Nicolas Logue buy the drinks.

Hello gang,

Can I have this order placed on a brief hold because I want to add two more subscription items to the shipment.

Sara Marie is helping me but I did not want the order shipped without the other items.

Thank you as always.

If you get to read this Cosmo, how is Josh's campaign going ?

From the Fiend Folio (1979):

If a lair is found it will house 21-30 githyanki with typical distribution as follows:-

1 supreme leader

2 captains

1 knight: 8th level anti-paladin

2 warlocks

3 sergeants

2 'gish': fighter/magic-users

10-19 lower levels: evenly distributed between the three possible classes.

Good luck in Sin City gentlemen.

Stay away from the knivesies and mig-a-mug-tug tables.

And if a proprietor with a key for a hand offers you to join him as partners over a game of bounder, well keep an eye on the sky.

How to Kill a Tarrasque (official thread)
Cheliax baron arem heshvaun (Pathfinder Adventure Path, Pathfinder Companion Subscriber),

42-attic Whisperer Final H avatar

James Jacobs had three 'sample methods' for the tarrasque's 'method of death' that were cut out due to space as discussed on this thread.

Here's hoping he finds the juicy bits on his office computer, but while we wait for those - any Golarion specific inspired nuggets for the final death of the beloved spawn of Rovagug from the peanut gallery are welcome.

And to the Tarrasque: May you live in every edition of the game!

A Gish is an Arcane Warrior-Mage, Usually min-maxed. The Term originated with the Githayanki.

Specifically, it originated on the old WotC Character Optimization boards, as a generic term for melee-focused arcane characters. Someone suggested naming them after the githyanki term for fighter/wizards, and it stuck.

Not sure if that’s where the term originated (depending on how long those boards have been around); people I used to game with were referring to fighter/mage characters as Gish since at least the late eighties. EDIT: actually, probably early nineties now I think on it.

'Gish' - I am 99.9 percent certain started of as a Githyanki term for thier Fighter/Magic-Users, but over the years and various editions became a catch phrase for any Arcane Warrior-Wizard builds (and now may cover Fighter-Psion builds).

I myself am not a big fan of the term outside of its use for the Githyanki, but such is life.

A creature must have a Constitution score to have the regeneration ability... why?

And quite possibly more taxi cabs as well.

St. Cuthbert was and remains a Lesser god of Greyhawk. Hence a god can very well have the patience of a saint.

Whatever your pace happens to be, it's the right pace for the group as long as all involved are having a good time at the table.

I envy the role playing your group must get to do; which, given the time limits of an organized PFS game is one of the very few but telling drawbacks of organized play.

Also these quotes from Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman's Good Omens:

Spoiler:
-- "You can't second-guess ineffability, I always say."

-- "Many people, meeting Aziraphale for the first time, formed three impressions: that he was English, that he was intelligent, and that he was gayer than a tree full of monkeys on nitrous oxide."

-- "English Burger Lords managed to take any American fast food virtues (the speed with which your food was delivered, for example) and carefully remove them; your food arrived after half an hour, at room temperature, and it was only because of the strip of warm lettuce between them that you could distinguish the burger from the bun. The Burger Lord pathfinder salesmen had been shot 25 minutes after setting foot in France."
