Hello everyone! For lack of a better suited section, I'll post this here.
I recently did some cartography for a new Kickstarter project, called "Map Flats", under the creative direction of mr. Ted Leaman.
I figured some of you might be interested in getting these high-quality maps for their own game. I know this is shameless advertising, but this is my first official collaboration, so I'm very excited!

Please check out the project here: Map Flats


Hello guys, I was trying to write a module for my blog. It should be released as a downloadable PDF (for free, so I'm not earning any money from it!).
Problem is: I'd love to use some monsters that are included in the online SRD but are not labeled as "Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Compatible", for example, the Skin Stealer.
Given that the adventure is free (and provided I indicate the source, in this case Pathfinder 44: Trial of The Beast)... could I use it? Not being able to do this will actually prevent the whole thing from being written.

Thanks in advance for the help.


Hello everyone! Hope I chose the right section to post this.
I recently started a blog ( here ) which is mainly about pathfinder-related stuff (pregens, homebrew classes...).
I also intend to periodically provide my readers (are there any?) with adventures: we're talking mainly one-shots, but I do not exclude a possible "full" module in the future. That said, I just uploaded my first short adventure, "Grayfield Manor", which can be run for 4 to 6 PCs, levels 1, 2 or 3 (I've run it and the math seems right). The adventure (and all the material on the blog, for what it's worth) is free to download and use. It is the first time I write an adventure, albeit short, for someone other than myself; and I have to say writing it in english (which is not my native language) proved hard when looking for synonyms and specific words. If you want, take a look, and if you happen to run the module or even just read it, please let me know your opinions and suggestions by posting here in this thread or, even better, by leaving a comment in the post with the link to the PDF: this one.

Cheers!

I recently started writing on a blog, called Halfling's Den. I try to write at least one article per week, and every week I provide the readers with pregenerated characters (PCs and NPCs) to use when in a hurry.
Today I posted a homebrew class I made to satisfy one of my players' cravings for a martial, non-magical, non-divine leader that could, mechanically, grant extra combat actions to allies. Much like 4th edition warlord, but with a few tweaks to make it feel more "at home" in a Pathfinder game.
If you'd like to know more, here's the article: A personal take on a new class: the Warleader
I have tested this class for a couple of sessions, and things seem to go well. You can find a torough description in the article. To answer some questions already:
- Yes, I know the use of warleader's command is heavily limited. Trust me, you don't want to feel like your PC is simply shouting in the fight. We want players to act!
- The picture of the ogre warleader is something I drew last year.
- Although the idea of a ranged warleader archetype seemed really cool, we're still debating on wether it's too strong (or at least, stronger than the base version making it obsolete).
Please let me know your opinion on this!


Hello everyone. I'm currently working on a short adventure (3 to 5 hours) to be made available for FREE (so, no money involved, just contributing to the gaming world out of generosity) on my blog, The Halfling's Den. The adventure uses the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game System and contains references to the Core Rulebook, Bestiary I, Advanced Player's Guide and Ultimate Equipment. Plus, there are a couple of Kobold Traps of my own creation. Being this the first time I do something like this, I don't know which kind of license or agreement I have to reference/include in the PDF version of the module that will be uploaded on the site. I just want to avoid incurring in legal troubles, because honestly, I have no interest in passing as mine ideas that are not, and I am grateful to all the people at Paizo for their hard work.

I hope this is the correct section of the forums for this question; if it is not, my apologies to the moderators.


Hello guys.

So, I'm gonna run a quick Dark Sun adventure using Pathfinder Rules. Although I've built pregens, monsters and NPCs using the core rulebooks and the awesome resources from Dreamscarred Press, I'm stuck with quite a relevant problem: a quick way to handle journeys through the athasian desert. Now, the average temperature in the desert during the day is 110 Fahrenheit degrees (about 43 Celsius), often reaching 130° F (54° C). The core rulebook suggests a Fortitude Save every 10 minutes for temperatures above 110° F (DC 15+1 per previous save) or take 1d4 nonlethal damage. Honestly, having my whole party roll 6 saves per hour would slow things a bit too much. On the other hand, the book suggests a roll every hour for heat from 90° F to 110° F.
To speed things up, I thought that, given athasian people are more accustomed to this environment than creatures from other planes/worlds, I could use the once per hour roll for travel during the day (from 5 am to 8 pm). Characters can use their Survival skill to boost their saves as usual in the morning. During the night (from 9 pm to 4 pm), temperatures drastically drop to about 46° F (8° C), so there's no need to make any checks I guess.

I still have some doubts concerning the checks' DC (15 or more?), and the amount of nonlethal damage suffered (1d4 or more?). Please let me know your thoughts on this.


Hello everyone. I'm a Pathfinder player/GM from Italy.
Since my very first days of playing D&D, I loved the maps from modules and campaign setting books. I'm currently attending the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna and, during my spare time, I love to craft new adventures, dungeons, and maps (particularly ship maps, given that my current campaign has a strong pirate theme).
I figured some of you guys could use some of my work for your own adventures, so here's a link to my Deviant Art page: http://araknophobia.deviantart.com/
Some people have already printed the maps and they seem to work fine. Please remember this is my work and, although free of charge, I'd like to be mentioned if you ever use it :)
