Okay folks, I'm looking for ideas. In my CotCT campaign, a Chelish man is pursuing a serious relationship with a mutually interested Varisian woman from a very traditional family.

Pathfinder #7, Edge of Anarchy, included the very informative article "Peolle of the Road" detailing the Varisian people and their culture. In that article, it says the following: "Varisians cherish family above all, and are loath to admit just anyone into their family. Marriage to non-Varisians is strongly frowned upon, but a family might accept a foreign suitor who proves his worth and spends enormous effort to win over his future family."

So, I would like to hear some ideas of how this Chelish man might go about proving himself to his prospective in-laws. Thank you.

So, my players have decided to try hiding Trinia in one of their apartments after catching her in the Shingles chase. The problem is, they don't really have much in the way of protective resources in the midst of a city-wide manhunt and are about to cross paths with the senior arbiter who has access to scrying, divination, and planar inquiry. This way Trinia gets rescued from the execution and I don't have to have Vencarlo ask the PCs to escort some random NPC out of the city in SDTTG.

My question is: Does anybody have any suggested builds for Zena while she's still a middle-aged human aristocrat 2/cleric of Abadar 9?

Thank you in advance for you help and advice.

So I recently joined a group my wife has been playing in for a while now, have played a few sessions, and have been really digging my character. Then last night, after the session ended, my wife blabbed one of my character's biggest secrets to the rest of the group during Out of Character time. I'd made it clear beforehand that I wanted to save it as a surprise for the others and drop little hints as we went forward, so now that she let the cat out of the bag, I'm really upset and don't know what to do because I'm sure this knowledge will color the way the other players will act out their characters in regards to mine.

After years of preparation, anticipation, and false starts, I'm finally running the campaign of my dreams, Carrion Crown, the gothic horror story I've been wanting to bring to a table since it was first published. But now that it's become a reality, I can't enjoy it because none of my players take anything seriously. I preceded the campaign by informing them of the horror themes and atmosphere I wanted to create, we're now on TotB and still all they do is crack jokes, intentionally get characters' names wrong, treat every NPC they meet with disrespect, and somehiw still expect to be treated like heroes. All I want is to make them focus, take things seriously, and treat the campaign with the respect a horror story needs. Is there anything I can do?

There's a question that's been bothering me ever since I first read through the Carrion Crown AP and I've reread several times trying to find an adequate answer but have so far failed to find anything official. So here goes:

Raven's Head is an essential component to creating the Carrion Crown formula but it (likely) falls into the hands of the PCs (despite Rask's attempt to retrieve it at the beginning of Ashes at Dawn). Without it, the formula is incomplete. But Shadows of Gallowspire insists that the reason the formula fails for AA is because it wasn't prepared specifically for him.

So, my question is, HOW did he finish the formula with any hope of it working on his intended vessel without Raven's Head? What component did he find on such short notice to replace it?

If I want to create a magic item with a spell effect that's normally an area but I want to reduce it to a single target (the wearer of the item) would that affect the items cost?

I'm looking to run a Saturday night Carrion Crown campaign. Currently have two players lined up, my wife and one of her friends, and would like to find two more, one at a minimum. My wife and I started playing Pathfinder a year ago and just recently introduced her friend to the system, so other beginners or experienced players with patience are desirable. During the week I go to Grand Valley State University, so any fellow-students who wish to meet with me on the Allendale Campus may do so.

If you have allergies, be warned: I own a dog.

So, after dying at the hands of several angry vikings outside of Kalsgard in Night of Frozen Shadows, I've decided that I want to bring a new character, a paladin of Iomedae, into the campaign. The problem I have is how to justify why the heck this guy would want to come along on the journey to Minkai with a group of people he's just met, with no connections whatsoever to any of the NPCs.

Hello. I'm new to Pathfinder and I've spent some time familiarizing myself with the rules for Pathfinder Society Organized Play, including the additional resources, but I have a question. Is the lycanthropic template from the Bestiary legal for organized play? Thank you for your help.
