ashley: pie bar?! this sounds like a fantastic place.

There is a pie bar. It's in Ballard. It is delicious.

Capitol Hill, too. Clearly we need to test both.

Dons her lab coat and clipboard.

Adjusts her glasses.

Alright. LET'S DO THIS!

I'd eat it.

Because teriyaki, or because cup cake?

Yes.

Cosmo would only greenlight this game if people paid Cosmo to blame Cosmo. Or paid Cosmo to shift blame to other people. Or just paid Cosmo, perhaps in a futile attempt to propitiate him. He's surprisingly flexible on this point, as long as the spice keeps flowing.

Cosmo can always get a cut from the money. :)

Finance does not negotiate with clowns.

I've got a high-potency energy ray that might be able to change your mind.

Finance doesn't negotiate with terrorists either. We have inquisitors and inevitables for that. The Lawgiver is also willing to take appointments.

Our pact is still good, right? I mean, we signed it in triplicate and everything—you get pyrokinesis, you show me how you did it, and vice versa.

Of course! I can't very well take over the world by myself.

I blame Cosmo for the anger problems Facebook is trying to confront me with via ads.

I know generally that good is good and evil is bad, but how good could a Lawful Evil character be? Could an LE character fight on the side of good, but be the type that doesn't know mercy, pull punches, and generally does whatever it takes to get the job done, for the greater good? Especially if it served his purposes, perhaps allowing him to advance in a society, gaining power and security.

And if it were possible for such a character to exist, where would they go when they died? Would their soul be damned because of the extreme lengths they took to do good, or would they be allowed into a good or even neutral aligned afterlife?

Finally, if such a character couldn't exist (cause good is good and evil is bad), then what other alignments could fulfill these criteria, of being a cold, merciless, ends justify the means, for the greater good type character?

You should check out a book called Villains by Necessity. It's a difficult find because it's been out of print for quite some time, but the story basically revolves around a band of villains who need to be bad otherwise the world will end because the balance of good vs evil has been thrown off.

I'm not sure where this band of characters would end up in Golarion lore. It would seem to me like doing bad for the greater good would land you in at least some kind of neutral afterlife, but I'm not versed enough on Golarion religions to really say. The universe in this book requires evil in the world in order for there to be balance, which might not be explicitly needed in Golarion.

Katina: No! I have enough mind nuggets!

Katina: Don’t they know you have more important things to do, like putting wigs on sharks?

You know, in Hawaii, Spam is totally legit, perhaps even a delicacy. It's used even in kinda fancy dishes.

True facts.

McDonalds even has a SPAM breakfast plate (I would go with the Portuguese Sausage and Rice plate myself, but to each their own).

Spam musubi is delightful, and I will have Stern Words with those who say otherwise.

There are no words, only fire.

Me: Heeey, can I bounce something off of you real quick?
Money Chris: Oh god, you're doing t-accounts, this can't be good.

(I'm pretty sure t-accounts are the first step in creating the inevitables that hunt down fallen Accountomancers.)

There's such a thing as a "half a pot of coffee?"

Well if the rest of these slackers could keep up we could brew a whole pot, but noooo, they want to sleep or something.

Sleep is a poor substitute for caffeine.

I hear if you transfer to the Brute Squad you get a Holocaust Cloak. Might be something to look in to. You do need your own wheelbarrow though.

A little bit Inquisitor of Abadar, a little bit Cleric of Lorris, and a little bit raptor wrangler.

Thanks everyone! :D

This was awesome. :D

ZOMG THAT AMIRI COSTUME IS AWESOME! Package me up and send me off to a crazy bakery, because I am mad jelly of that sword. :D

What character are you cosplaying as?

I believe I have enough keys hanging around the house to pull off our Accountomancer. I've already got the green hair so I might as well go with it!

This is going to be my first GenCon and I'm really excited for the cosplay! You guys always do such a great job.

I'm going to also throw my votes behind Fairy Tail and The Devil is a Part Timer!

Fairy Tail is a bit on the fanservicey side, but I feel like the ladies in that anime have really great stories which helps to balance that out for me.

I've only just started to watch The Devil is a Part Timer but it cracks me up every time I watch an episode.

Howl's Moving Castle is my favorite Miyazaki film to date, closely followed by Porco Rosso, though that <i>might</i> be a touch on the romantic side for her.

I know that our library system has a really good selection of anime, so if you can't find something on Netflix or Hulu or other streaming services check that out. I also like picking up the mangas of the animes I'm watching to see how close they are :).

Feh. Those fuzz balls barely qualify. Where are the Pugwampi plushies?!?! Now is the perfect time of year to hold all accounting systems hostage you know...

>:D

That sounds like a really good way to get a visit from Lawgiver. Do not want. Being branded by an axiom is bad enough, I wouldn't want to meet the Gavel of Abadar face to face.

On a side note: I think you underestimate the craftiness of Orange Bunny.

Exhibit 1
Exhibit 2
Exhibits 3 and 3.5

Orange Bunny is not allowed at home because my husband does not trust him. This is not an unreasonable feeling.

Crude and corrosive.

Kingmaker seems to be a very popular choice for groups with younger players. We've also got a neat blog post about a project in Uganda utilizing this AP with indigenous kids there.

You may also want to check out We Be Goblins!, and We Be Goblins Too!. They're short and swee...er, pickled, I suppose.

I'm not sure how well your kids will do with zombies and old fairy tales, but Reign of Winter might be worth a look as well.

Welcome and congratulations Linda!

The product numbers might be a good place to start. Each of our lines have their own prefix, the higher the number after the prefix the later the release. You should see the PZO number around where the barcode is on the product.

You would have to regroup them from there though to get things like "Faiths of []" together though. APs would be super easy to arrange like this however.

Personally, I use the APs to drive my bookshelf. Any campaign settings, companions, etc. that relate to an AP get put with that AP; otherwise they get put in product code order on the other side of the shelf.

Bleugh, don't like hotwings, guess I'll be eating croquet mallets.

I'd suggest going with croquettes instead. Much tastier, though croquets probably have a higher fiber content.
