Louis Porter Jr. Design, has released its first product for the upcoming post apocalyptic survival horror fantasy setting, Obsidian Twilight for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game. Here is information on the Fallen of Obsidian Twilight: Calix Sabinus (PRPG):
Wings spread, maw agape, sheathed in leather and gold and spun from the blood of thousands stands Calix Sabinus, god-emperor of the undead lords, bringer of death, destroyer of angels, a power before the cataclysm, a tyrant after. There is nothing more dangerous on all of Abaddon than Calix Sabinus. Calix has killed thousands, enslaved millions and crushed the wills of all that live on the lands of terror called Abaddon. To see Calix Sabinus can easily mean death. To actually meet Calix Sabinus face to face means worst that that. Tempt fate if you dare.

Ah...so now there's a named tied to the art piece. Was wondering who/what that was. So, when is he going to go after Rovagug for the title belt? LOL
Normally I won't pick up races or such until I at least have the campaign setting to see if it's for me, but this BBMFEG might be worth taking a peeksie. Price of a candy bar I really don't need, you know. :D

Agh, you're killing me! I wasn't sure whether it was good to know or not to know that. :D
Since everything else is a preview up until the end of January, what prompted Calix's official release rather than a preview?
Oh wait, I should get it and find out for myself? LOL

I've heard of spinning wool into thread, but how do you spin blood into monsters?

<snark> He runs an HMO? </snark>
To see Calix Sabinus can easily mean death. To actually meet Calix Sabinus face to face means worst that that. Tempt fate if you dare.
That must be very inconvenient when interviewing minions.
"Jimmy, this is our boss, Calix Sab..."
<Jimmy dies> *thud*
"...crap. Mimi, call maintainance for a cleanup. Sorry sir, I'll call Inhuman Resources for another minion candidate..."
Agh, you're killing me! I wasn't sure whether it was good to know or not to know that. :D
It is nothing personal. I just want to make sure you get MORE than your money worth.

All the major NPCs are going to get the Fallen of Obsidian Twilight treatment. SInce Calix is a CR 35 NPC I don't expect to see me being used in every campaign. But you have to understand why he is so important to the setting
Oh wait, I should get it and find out for myself? LOL
I think you will be pleased with the outcome. The Vampiric Lich has got you interested.
35 CR? It's a 10 page PDF. 2 for the front and back cover. 1 page combined of artwork. 1 page of fluff and leaves 6 pages left for his massive statblock, right?
And yes, it is personal. :D
But seriously, I appreciate it.
Even though he's going to be part of the core release, I figure I owe you back for being kind to me with the Race Creation Cookbook. Calix currently lurks on my hard drive now. I may not be able to sleep tonight. :D
I'll let you know what I think soon.

Well we all are still waiting for a review... Where is the love, Urizen?
Haha!
I got a couple editorial / grammatical context I need to send to your attention to correct. It's been easy to just jot out a couple words here and there because I can type quickly, but when it comes to an honest to goodness review, I tend to think a lot into and type much more slowly so as to be concise.
Also, I'm still tending to my lady as she recovers from post-op. She has the upper hand at the moment. College football bowl games comes next. :D I'll get the corrections to you shortly -- I prefer to be the type of person that helps someone fix things rather than lambast them first. Helps me when I do that review after the fact.
