1E Magnimar, City of Monuments
Page 45-46 - The sun orchid elixir is one of the most highly prized elixirs across much of Golarion. Not surprisingly, attempted thefts are common, and actual thefts, while far less common, do happen. Perhaps the most infamous thefts of the sun orchid elixir were done by Staunton Vhane. Staunton crafted a forgery of the sun orchid elixir that made the imbiber feel youthful while simultaneously cloaking them in an illusion that kept their appearance from aging. With the forgery perfected, Staunton targeted vials of sun orchid elixir that had already been purchased and delivered, swapping the real for the fakes. With real vials of sun orchid elixir, Staunton either drank the elixir himself, or used the vials as bargaining chips. Staunton successfully ran this con for several years, but eventually the imbibers of the fake elixir began dying, thus revealing they had been aging all along. The Thuvian government responded, tracking and pursuing Staunton. Staunton remains at large, but thus far Thuvia has prevented use of Staunton’s scheme.

2E Monsters of Myth
Page 18 - A diary found in the Thuvian desert recounts being stalked by the entity called the Desert’s Howl.

Page 19 - Azeel had been a desert guide until he barely escaped the desert and the Desert’s Howl. Sadly his stories of escape are often mocked because they seem more a result of madness than an actual accounting of events.
Page 19 - An Osirion noblewoman named Sidrah is also disbelieved for her tale of madness and attack that occurred on the caravan that she was traveling in on the way to Pashow. Her husband did not survive, so others claim her story is just a cover for foul play.
Page 19-20 - Rumors claim that Desert’s Howl was originally a scoundrel by the name of Jalari Zafikiri. Jalari, single handedly or with his bandits, accomplished numerous raids on caravans. After making his most daring theft, the price on Jalari’s head became so great that he was constantly being pursued by bounty hunters, soldiers, and more. What Jalari stole changes depending on who is telling the story, but the result is always the same.
Page 20 - With the arrival of the Desert’s Howl, Thuvia’s desert changed. Those who traverse the deep desert are wary of the Desert’s Curse, a sickness that seeps into the creatures of the desert but only expresses itself in the minds of the peoples who come in contact with the sickness. This curse is especially dangerous to those whose minds are touched with psychic power.

In addition to offering desert travelers water and a place of rest, the complex also had places of worship, and a trading post. Approximately 300 years ago the Inspiriting Wellspring was attacked by div forces. While most of the divs were defeated, a powerful div was only trapped, sealed within the water chamber. Losing access to its source of water, the Inspiriting Wellspring was abandoned and the complex was reclaimed by the desert. Before abandoning the complex three of the most prominent families that oversaw the Inspiriting Wellspring, each took one of the keys to the wards that imprisoned the powerful div. Their descendents continue to guard the keys.

Note: In 1E Ginevers were listed as Monstrous Humanoids.
History & Society: Originating from Casmaron, Ginever’s claim to be the children of a God of fermentation. In Qadira, Ginever’s have a reputation for being vagabonds and bandits. Qadirans claim that Ginever’s are a people cursed for their gluttony. Ginever’s are fairly new to Avistan and are primarily found in large urban areas. Ginever’s have an appearance similar to humans and are generally able to blend in when living in primarily human cities. Ginever cuisine consists of all types of alcohol and they saturate their food in alcohol, letting it soak and absorb the alcohol. Food that has soaked for months in alcohol is considered the most delectable.
Ancestry Thoughts: Using alcohol as the starting point for an Ancestry is quite a fun idea. Ginevers already have a great set of abilities that can be worked into Ancestry Feats. Doubling down on Ginevers abilities to use their innate alcohol abilities for both social and combat encounters could be a lot of fun. I would greatly enjoy seeing Heritages based on beer, wine, liquor, and spirits. Also, there was a missed opportunity in the Ginever’s Stats. As presented the Ginever is resistant to Acid and Cold, but they should absolutely be resistant to Cold and vulnerable to Fire. I would definitely want that as part of the base Ancestry Stats. I am also intensely curious about their origin and the Fermentation God from which they originate. Since Ginevers originated in Casmaron, I could see Paizo waiting until we go to Casmaron before exploring Ginevers as an Ancestry. Also worth noting, while alcohol is a normal and intrinsic part of Ginever biology, any presentation of this Ancestry would need to steer away from tropes about alcoholism. There would likely need to be a sidebar discussion about playing this Ancestry responsibly. The sidebar should also detail the importance of discussing with players beforehand if they wish to explore sensitive topics such as addiction and alcoholism at the table. While Ginevers are absolutely not the “alcoholic ancestry” there will be some players that will want to take their characters in that direction. With Ginevers being fairly new to Avistan, I could see Cayden Cailean having an interest in this Ancestry, and in turn Ginevers being curious about Cayden Cailean.

Note: In 1E Onyvolans were listed as Monstrous Humanoids.
History & Society: So far the Onyvolan have not been presented with any real background within the setting with regards to their origin or history. We know that they are almost exclusively found in large urban areas, and tend to live in small groups that do not appear to be particularly concerned about traditional family units. We did receive quite a bit of information on Onyvolans with regard to their culture. While not explicitly stated, Onyvolans appear to rarely engage in crafting or manufacturing. This is indicated by the preference of Onyvolans to avoid anything new or in regular use. Instead, Onyvolans seekout clothing and items that have been discarded or abandoned. They take pleasure in finding garments that are out of fashion or worn out and thrown away. Also, the more garish the garments the better. This behavior very likely extends to things like armor and items. Onyvolans are likely to prefer armor found in a dungeon over buying something newly crafted by a smith. The exception is hats and headwear. Onyvolans universally seek out the most fantastic and eye-catching headwear they can find or buy. In keeping with the Onyvolan desire for things worn out, discarded, or abandoned, their homes are typically found in the rundown parts of a city. Generally considered harmless but creepy, or at worst pests, Onyvolans appear to largely go ignored by most other Ancestries. There are known populations in the urban areas of Taldor, and presumably throughout the Shining Kingdoms. Additionally, the city of Absalom is known to have a population of Onyvolan. Although not explicitly stated (and this may just be a me thing), Onyvolan communities appear to have social behaviors that are reminiscent of feral cats, with a touch of the punk rock culture.
Ancestry Thoughts: I think Onyvolans are very interesting Ancestry, but I struggle mightily with understanding how to play them with them having wheels for hands. However, there are certainly several options available to overcome this limitation. Perhaps their hands shapeshift between wheel and hand, maybe they naturally have “Telekinetic Hand” as a spell-like ability, or maybe the hard keratin of their wheels are actually hiding hands that take an “Action” to unwind or reform as a wheel. While Onyvolans certainly have a lot of limitations with regard to holding items, wearing gloves, etc, they have two interesting advantages in the form of speed and weapon. Having wheels for hands and feet mean Onyvolans are fast, possibly one of the fastest Ancestries. However, their speed is offset by their weakness to difficult terrain. Additionally, the hands/forearms and feet/calves of Onyvolans are covered in hard keratin making them powerful natural weapons. I could easily see Onyvolans being able to grow this keratin so that the edges have sharp blades or spikes. And this keratin could likely be carved with weapon and armor ruins. I think with their speed and keratin there is likely a fair amount of design space to flesh out Onyvolan Heritages and Ancestry Feats. However, there is one other aspect of the Onyvolans that could be played up in interesting ways. Onyvolans make other humanoids feel creeped out. Onyvolans’ mouths are filled with pointed teeth and at rest their faces relax into overly wide grins. (I now need an Ancestry Feat called Grim Grin) Pairing this with the Onyvolans’ Creepy Cackle, we start to see an Ancestry that could lean into being super creepy. This should play differently from being scary, they don’t inspire a fear response, instead they make other Ancestries feel unsettled and wary. Perhaps this draws the attention and focus of other Ancestries when there are more dangerous threats around. If their creepiness does get played up, I would set an exposure limitation so that their fellow party members are not constantly in a creeped out/wary state of mind.
