Notoriously Good

Spoiler alert? I avoid the store blog because it has these kind of things. Haven't seen anything so spoilery in the first line of a paizo blog before.

:(

Sorry about that, dunebugg. I figured that since this information has been in the product description for a while now that it'd be okay.

Just don't read the words. Look at the pretty pictures. :)

Nocticula actually lets people walk around her territory? You think any good-aligned people who set foot in the Abyss would just get mobbed.

She probably thinks it's funny.

There are quite a few places in the Nine Hells or even the Abyss which allow for visitors. Not that this makes those places really safe, though.

It's the tourist trade. The most evil and vile trade around. Naturally it originated in the Hells and Abyss. ;)

Nocticula looks a lot more "elf-y" in her portrait there than in some of her other depictions. And a bit like Sorshen, but maybe it's just the artist and pose coupled with the pointy ears.

Of course, we all know that Nocticula is just a pale imitation of Dark_Mistress. ;D

Is that demon picture from the bestiary? I hope it's a picture from the story because if that is a new demon it would be Balor # 10 with 4 arms # 20.

I hope on seeing some more animalistic demons in the bestiary this time or some from real mythology.

Otherwise I always enjoy some gladiator action! So the story could be awesome!

It's my guess that this is the arena champion (Gelderfang) they mention in the text.

As it turns out, that misconception and complication is a big part of the central portion of the adventure...

Nope. The four armed demon is...

She's always looked that way. Turns out when you don't show her rune-glowing wings, her three stingers, and her molten hooves she starts looking like an elf.

Hehehe, an Incubus named Geld.

Geld-er.

;)

Geld-er.

oh, thought it said Geldedfang, that's not quite as funny... Time to break out the +3 Holy Adamantine Cheese Grater.

Something is telling me Noctycula is going to be affable evil and not a curling mustache Saturday cartoons villain.

I can't wait to get into the Abyss and to meet Nocticula (although I'd prefer Socothbenoth). My only concern is that we already had a "Meet the Dangerous Demonic Seductress Overlady" and it wasn't my favourite part of that adventure.

When did we meet the dangerous demonic seductress overlady? You mean in Savage Tide?

I'm now envisioning the Midnight Isles as the Unicomplex and Nocticula as the Borg Queen.

Nocticula looks [...] a bit like Sorshen.

She looks more like Azula to me. Appropriate, really.

I think it's safe to assume that anyone designed by you is gonna look like an elf.

On a tangent, what're her mental ability scores?

Stay tuned for Pathfinder #76!

Heh...

Given your recent posting activity, I wouldn't call that a tangent at all. :-)

And I wouldn't say Treerazer or Cyth-V'sug or Rovagug or Jervas Stoot or Ripnugget or a lot more characters I've designed look like elves...

Well, when it comes to Treerazer remember: You are what you eat!

:P

The Borg...

I'd imagine that while the Abyss is a hostile place for anybody, especially foreign good characters, demon lords' realms are so expansive that many of them don't have the ability to keep track of every little thing that happens in them. Even if they could, being the type of beings they are I imagine many of them couldn't be bothered to personally intervene about every person walking around, and being very chaotic many of them just might not care, even more so when the local wildlife and inhabitants usually do unwanted visitors in anyway.

That and the whole "Really? You purposely came here? I am amused. I normally have to jump through hoops just to trick people into stepping foot into my abode to run some of my more fun corruption and murder schemes on them. This is going to be the best entertainment I've had this century."

Nocticula sits back to watch.

Of course, we all know that Nocticula is just a pale imitation of Dark_Mistress. ;D

Very true but then again who isn't really?

I am sure in your pea sized little goblin brain you believe so, but it was a rhetorical question.
