Sounds fun! I had much glee with my attempt at APL 5 with a Lurker in light.

By the way: you might want to alert the Paizo crew to change

In the email I sent Liz, I asked her to include class and level info. In the mean time, you can see that information here.

Edit: Ninjaed.

Muffin sounds right up the alley for one of my players...Oddly enough, as an ally. For Serpent's Skull. So nothing like what he was intended to be, it sounds like :)

President, Jon Brazer Enterprises

Each is given their own motivations and desires so if you want to use them as allies, it would be easy for you to do so. Just change "River Nations" to "deep jungle."

I know what I'm getting next! Your work on expanding Kingmaker is among my absolute favorite 3rd party works for Pathfinder.


Looks like I'm wishing the CR had a wider spread (something for the lower and mid-levels), but I'll give it a look if I get any closer to ever running anything again.

President, Jon Brazer Enterprises

Really can't get much lower. The assassin PrC requires a 5th level character to enter. I added in one NPC that didn't have the prestige class (because she was still a hired killer, even if she didn't study the art of killing someone in a single blow) but I really couldn't add in too many of them since then I'd have trouble calling it a book of assassins.

Besides, there are alot of low level NPCs out there and alot less higher level NPCs out there and they take more time for a GM to create by themselves. So I opted for this level of GM spread.

President, Jon Brazer Enterprises

Thanks Liz for fixing the top section. Much appreciated.

Huh... I forgot I had this sitting in my sidecart, and the screen cuts off so all you see is "book of fr... assass..." and my brain immediately went to "The Book of French Assassins" and I thouht wow... that's rather specific...


Finally got my review up for this both here and at RPGNow. An interesting collection of characters Dale, and yes, Muffin is hands down my favorite, and she has already earned a permanent spot within my campaign world.

Am curious, outside of the editing issues, what happened with Jolanta's spell list? The crossed out spell really has me stumped as to the reasoning...and yes, I do realize if its something obvious I'm going to feel like an idiot, but I got to ask.

Dale, I feel like an idiot for not making that connection, lol, have updated the review to remove disparaging remarks regarding the crossed out spell. I can't believe it didn't occur to me that that was the reason behind it.

I Thank You for the chance to review your work Dale.


Reviewed here, on DTRPG and sent to GMS magazine. Cheers!

I used many of the assassins that eventually went inside this supplement quite a bit during my Kingmaker campaign. My players were not happy about that. I, however, loved every minute of it.

I purchased this before I bought Hero Lab. Thanks for the reminder.
