Friends & Foes contains a diverse mix of character types, from helpful merchants to rough mercenaries to crafty spellcasters.

Love these!

I am using these in a non-Pathfinder campaign I am running, and I love them. It is VERY helpful to players to have faces to put with all of the NPC names they hear. I will definitely get the next set when it comes out.

I've Been Waiting for So Long...

Years ago, when running a long-running D&D campaign, I spent a couple of long and boring days scouring the internet for suitable NPC images, re-sizing them so that they were more or less uniform, printing them up and then gluing them to backboard that I then laminated. At the time, I thought to myself that any thoughtful game company could make things much easier on GMs like myself by putting out a series of portrait cards.

Well, it's been nearly ten years since I had that thought, and the cards are finally here. These portrait cards meet the high art standards that I've come to expect from Paizo (which should be no surprise; all of the art was taken from existing Paizo products). I can't wait to get my hands on the next set.

Congratulations to the Paizo staff; they have a product here in which they can take pride.

Versatile and high quality

I picked these up at my FLGS today and am really happy with the deck. The cards are the same high quality as the GameMastery item cards. The art is all repeated from Pathfinder and GameMastery adventures and sourcebooks, but is universal enough to be useful to GMs of any system or setting. In general, the quality of the art is great, and there is a huge variety of races, ages, genders, and classes presented, though many portraits could be used for a number of roles, from PC portraits, to wanted posters or other handouts, to illustrations of key NPCs. I can't wait for the next set!

I wondering if the art in these will be all new or have some pieces reused from other products.

All of the art is from existing products.

So we can expect to see some of our favourite folks from the AP's and modules?

This could be a VERY useful product. Probably more useful for me than the item cards.

No wonder I was so fond of this idea!

Actually, reading through the thread, Paizo has responded to a LOT of the feedback.
