Let's Get Ready to Rumble!

Tuesday, February 22, 2011

The Top 8 survivors have battled their way to this point and have spent the last couple of weeks designing a unique encounter set in Golarion. They've written stat blocks, some flavor text, and created maps in the hopes of moving on to the next round. Regular judges Ryan Dancey, Mark Moreland, Sean K Reynolds, and Neil Spicer, plus special guest judges, professional cartographers and regular Paizo contributors Rob Lazzaretti and Jared Blando, have posted their comments and recommendations to the discussion pages of all eight submissions, and now it's your turn to vote for your favorites! The Top 4 finishers will proceed to the Finale! In the end, while everyone who makes it to the Finale will be contracted to write something for Paizo, only one contestant will be chosen as 2011's RPG Superstar, winning a commission to design a complete Pathfinder Module that Paizo will publish!

The Top 8 entries are:

• Artus Nemati (Oviedo, FL) — Ruined Temple of Saint Braxtus
