May Day! Dance among the tulips! Roll in the buttercups! Roll for damage!
Well, you never know when an allergy will show up. Besides, buttercups were once used by clever beggars who wanted to add more sores on themselves—they cause pustules and blisters. They would do it to themselves or, more often, to the children they were exploiting.
In any event, springtime is when the sap is rising, trees are spewing sperm everywhere, and people find themselves with allergens in every orifice and poisonous sap on every surface.
Here are this month’s releases.

Avalon Spell Books, Vol 1, Issue #5
AVG5300-SP-5
$3.99
5 Pages
By Maria Smolina
Avalon takes a common spell and provides you with a number of alterations and additions to add excitement and useful options for your next adventure. Each issue of Avalon Spell Books will focus on a new spell, discussing different versions of the spell, providing different components that can be used to alter the way the spell works, and even adding feats and new magical items linked to the spell in question.
Tree Shape. Most spellcasters do not even remember this spell exists except under some extraordinary circumstances. Lacking any natural inclination towards serene photosynthesis, they use it when they need to stay motionless and unnoticed somewhere dangerous for many hours, or when their companions need a “large, dead, tree trunk” to get across a particularly nasty stream.
Or maybe when the group wants some shade in the middle of a desert.
Rooting and vegetating still offer more interesting experiences for patient spellcasters, ready to look for new magics in arboreal life. The first option of interest is the fact that a tree can sleep wherever it can root, ignoring many inconveniences that would give a humanoid a bad night. It is fully possible to sleep while being a tree, even getting a proper night’s rest, provided the shapechange duration is long enough. Much like a normal sleeping character, the dormant tree has reduced Perception abilities. If the spell duration ends before the character gets enough rest, the event should be treated as any other hazardous awakening in the game.
Then there is using Tree Shape underwater. Yes, contrary to popular belief, one can do so—in this case the spell transforms the caster into a large kelp, firmly attached to the river- or seabed, instead of a common shrub. In case of any doubts, the Game Master may require the character to succeed at a Knowledge (nature) check DC 15 to choose a proper plant type in which to transform. Since kelp can “breathe” water perfectly, the caster does not need any additional means of water-breathing for as long as the spell duration lasts.
This and much more is discussed in this issue of Spell Books!
Look for other great Pathfinder-based gaming goodies from Avalon Games.

One Knight Games, Vol 3, Issue 5: Smashing Around the Bend
AVG4900-35

$2.99
Smashing Round the Bend
Many demolition derbies occur on a normal racetrack, though they are often modified in order to add muddy patches and crossovers. The rules for such tracks are much like any other race, with the first vehicle across the finish line being declared the winner. Of course, in a destruction derby, you can be the first across the line by bashing all of the other vehicles until no one else can move, thus making you the only one who can even cross the finish line. Take an old racetrack, add in a jealous rival and a bit of sabotage, and you have this week’s thrilling edition of Destruction Derby!

Races of Qui Sang
AVG 5600-03
35 Pages
$4.99
A. J. Kenning
A great martial arts supplement for use with Kung Fu Kuma!
Kung Fu Kuma: Races of Qiu Sang is an expansion book for the Kung Fu Kuma campaign world and the Pathfinder Game System™. It expands the list of available PC races by six, and includes one companion race (for use as friends, allies, loyal servants, and henchman, as well as NPCs). That’s seven new races available for Kung Fu Kuma campaigns, six of them directly for use as Player Characters.
One thing about all these races—they are Animal Folk. That is a given in the campaign world of Kung Fu Kuma. But if you purchased this book intending it for use in a different game setting or universe, all of these races are compatible with the general Pathfinder Game System™, though the Gamemaster will have to come up with some reason why Animal Folk exist in that campaign world.
Six New PC Races!
The Empire of Qiu Sang is made up of twelve Clans who joined together in the great Clan Accord. Six of these races (and Humans) are detailed in the Kung Fu Kuma Players Handbook—specifically, the six races that dwell in the Mang Wan Valley, the valley of Kung Fu.
Individuals of the other six races do live in the Mang Wan Valley as well, but they are not greatly represented there. These other six Animal Folk races generally prefer to be out in the country proper, closer to politics and power, and closer to wine and wealth. The Mang Wan Valley is a beautiful place, to be sure. but it also an isolated place of meditation and quiet contemplation (and Kung Fu). Those who desire political power want to live closer to the Imperial Capital.
This divide amongst the twelve races might be best thought of as a divide between the six Kung Fu Races and the six Imperial Races. While there is no such actual divide recognized by anyone in the Empire, it is a simple, shorthand way of illustrating the difference. Now, this is not to say that no one outside of the Mang Wan Valley practices Kung Fu, nor that the Mang Wan Valley is entirely devoid of politics. Kung Fu is widely practiced everywhere within Qiu Sang, and politics is certainly practiced in the Mang Wan Valley. The above divide is a thing of emphasis, not of absolutes.
