Okay so first off I should probably say I'm not super into the crunchy side of things so I can't comment on whether the Witchwarper is viable in its current state or whether what I want out of the class is viable, but I read the rules for it in the playtest, it kind of just... doesn't really deliver on what I envisioned it to be.

It's a bit difficult to articulate, but when I read about the Quantum Field ability, the first thing that came to mind was using it to torment enemies with crowd control and environmental manipulation. Things like altering gravity, dishing out combat maneuvers, and preventing people from entering or exiting the field. Instead, it seems like most of the utility that comes out of deploying the field comes from the paradox bonus effect and enabling some reactions.

And, in general, most of the feats seem kind of... not very flavorful. The Mystic gets cool, thematic abilities like draining your own life force to fuel your HP distribution system while the Witchwarper's feats are kinda... the best way I can describe it is 'economical'. They seem to focus pretty heavily on not wasting actions or spell slots. Which is probably inherited from the Precog, but I still think makes for a pretty uninteresting feat when the same word count could be going to something like filling the Quantum Field with a high-pitched ringing noise or something.

Also, maybe this is just me, but the anchor half of the Witchwarper's chassis and related feats are kind of giving neurodivergent vibes and I've gotta say I'm not a huge fan.

EDIT: Read the little side note and apparently I was right about the neurodivergent themes. Please don't do this.

I didn't really notice until I saw the banner in the pride announcement, but it seems a little strange that there's just one one male iconic to be not cis and/or straight out of nine. In fact, I didn't even know Quinn is gay/bi/ace/trans/something else until I saw the banner. I'm assuming it's just an oversight or something, but like, some more queer male iconics would be nice.

Weird topic, I know, but the idea of a Golarion-themed amusement park has been living rent-free in my head since Ports of Call, and now I'm thinking about what a potential Tian Xia expansion to the park would look like since that book is arriving soon-ish. (Or maybe to a real-life Golarion World built after Pathfinder finally surpasses D&D in popularity)

Anyways, some ideas I've been thinking of, for fun:

• -Quain Land, for the martial arts flick appeal. Lots of performances and shows, based on things like the classic two schools vying for supremacy plot.
  
• -Xa Hoi Land, with lots of room for dragon-themed attractions. Maybe a roller coaster/thrill ride themed after each of the five types of imperial dragons, which I assume are safe from the transition to ORC.
  
• -Valashmai Land, because jungle-themed parks are basically mandatory. The stuff about kaiju in the recent stream has a lot of potential for attractions and rides.
