Just realized how amazing the art truly is.

I love the goblin art in Burnt Offerings, especially the cover, but I only today realized that the signs in the street are for the Fatman's Feedbag and the Pixie's Kitten, and that they're appropriately placed in relation to the map.

Kudos.

Wow remarkable! I'd never have noticed if you had'nt made this post.
Means I'll have to change my game a tad when I get to play this game in January, as I had the Goblins mostly striking in the northern section of the town.

Spoiler:
I'm sure I read somewhere that its only a force of 30 or so Goblins that attack the town as the real reason is for a diversion to get the remains of the last priest of the temple?

Medesha?! That name seems familiar from a Dnd forum I was playing on lately.... :-)

Hey, what happened to your contributor tag?

Hm, I don't know! Maybe the guys know something they're not telling me. :-p

Dualwolf: D&DOG? I am a mod there, albeit a slacky one. :-)

I think we're experiencing a retagging at Paizo. I'll look into this for you on Monday...

Umm...

If I can remember... ;)

Hm. If the goblins were truly in this location, they would be at the very end of the street, charging menacingly off the pier and into the water.

Stupid gobins. ;)

I had to force James to change the name of the Pixie's Kitten.

Tsk tsk.

What was the original name?

Haha. My group joked about calling it that, never believing that anyone would actually try to slip it past their editor! That's great :D

It's the publisher you've got to worry about, alas.

If you can't figure it out then you are probably too young to be told.

...no matter your actual age. :)

"Can I go to the PP mom?"

"Sure, the bathroom's right there."

"No, I mean the "Pixie's *****!"

*SLAP*

Please tell me that wasn't the original name...

Scarab Sages

Ya know.

When I read that the "locals" had a different name for the kitten, I knew that "locals" in this case meant Paizoian staff members. It was too much of an inside reference not to mean that. :)


And here I thought it was "The Grig's V****a"... Silly me.

The fact English is only my second language (and used mostly for games and reading and working, not when talking dirty with friends at the club) might better explain why I didn't get it at first, even if I'm 25.

Implied mentions of the fact that Pixie was still in the name, that the sign was the same for the old name and that one could shorten it to PP were more helpful :D

I figured this out on my own awhile ago while reading through it. :)

The establishment's original name was indeed quite fun—very alliterative, so it even pleased my inner English Major.

But yeah, Nick's not the only one who gets his words censored by The Man! :-)


A friend of mine used run a pub that could be classed as offensive, but I was not sure if I could type the name without getting banned from the boards.

In code (a rather weak one I do admit) it was called 'The (male bird) Inn'

In a Star Wars D20 game we played, had to take out a crime lord using an exotic dancing club... let's call it Club Excitement for the G crowd. It was really called CC for those that can figure it out. ;)

I think we can all survive with the non-american word for rooster.

My dad's local pub is called The Fighting Cocks, it used to be a cock-fighting venue before the sport was banned in Britain.

Edit: Ha ha, genius, apparently cockerels are auto-censored at Paizo - damn you foreigners, ruining a perfectly good word with your smut!

I was playing the beta of Lord of the Rings Online and found a quest giver who wanted me to gather some g****s. Censorship is funny. Grapes is offensive because of the middle 4 letters.
