Horror Adventures

[Derek Dalton]

The newest book Horror Adventures talks about the basic horrors seemingly mostly undead from what I have gathered. My question is does the book give any space to Beyond the stars dark tapestry materials.

[Eric Hinkle]

It does have a section that covers cosmic horror, so yes.

[Derek Dalton]

Thank you.

It's been my favorite PF purchase I've made out of the last three books I've added to my collection. There is so much in it that I can actually use.

I found it to be disappointing, especially as a player, but if your a DM I could see it having it's uses.

I am the GM. It's gonna see a lot of use.

I mainly GM and love the book. As player though not much there but the odd feat. Most of feats see a bit on evil side for heroic characters.

I'm hoping their are rules for dealing with all things Chuthulu. Have been reading collected works of Lovecraft and have been wanting to run such a campaign using Pathfinder rules. Also am curious if there is materials for running Pathfinder's version of Ravenloft I suspect there is.

Cthulhu-wise, there's a sanity system you can use, and some nifty specifics.

Ravenloft gets some straight-up homage as well.

You Do know about Ryan Naylor's PF Ravenloft adaption, right?

I look at Horror Adventures as a PG13 version of Book of Vile Darkness.

A lot of lost opportunity for cool horror themed sorcerer bloodlines, bloodrager bloodlines, oracle mysteries and curses, kieticist wild talents, psychic disciplines, spiritualist phantom emotions, alchemist discoveries, druid domains, witch hexes, etc.

[Plausible Pseudonym]

The phantom emotional focuses are about as horror themed as I think they're going to get. What do you want beyond despair, fear, and hatred?

I think I'm going to agree- and then point out how much stronger the resulting product is.

The character options we got were flavorful but not over the top for the sake of being over the top, the book showed enough of the nasty stuff to make it plain that you could go farther if such were desired...

This wasn't really a book aimed at players, and from a GM perspective,it gives me PLENTY to play with.
