Golden light gathers along with barrel and each crack of the rifle is accompanied by a spray of celestial sparks. Once, twice, thrice—each shot finds its mark and tears through the former Sarenite priest. Hissing in pain and fear, the bodak turns it's deathly stare on the paladin, but Silvia turns aside and refuses to make eye contact for even a moment. </p>

Sanduro invokes a quick bit of healing on Ketra, who rushes forward to slash at the remaining necrocraft. Unfortunately her knife scrapes against the bone armor, scoring it without biting deeper. Jando and SilviaBOT reposition before putting a bullet into the necrocraft and an arrow into the (purple) wight sorceress.

Does the Russian Orthodox deity the Romanovs worshipped have any connection to the war god of the OT? I dunno, it doesn't seem like the sort of question that would enrich Pathfinder by being answered, but Anastasia is the queen of Irrisen so the odds of it coming up are not zero.
<p>I do actually want to see the Norse pantheon though, it's a fun corner of mythology and a tengu priest of Odin would be fun to play.</p>Morhek wrote:Norse would fit the neighbouring Lands of the Linnorm Kings, and the Giant gods are based on the Jotnar, but I think Canaanite/Levantine and Greek would be more thematically appropriate to Casmaron since that's where the equivalents to their real-life counterparts lie.

But as many others have noted it's taken a lot of losses lately; if you want it to continue to be a threat and not just a joke/punching bag it needs to have some wins & shake up the status quo in a way that creates adventure hooks and flashpoints. These can be big events that occur "off screen" like the Vidrian revolution, as long as it's clear that the forces of evil are not idle in Golarion, and heroes are needed. </p>
<p>Cheliax burnishing its image by helping against Tar-Baphon is a great concept, and I like the twist of formally ending slavery only to trap people in insurmountable debt or other handles for social control. But Cheliax is also the Big Imperialist of the inner sea, and for that to work it has to be a military threat worth taking seriously. </p>
<p>The way I square that circle comes from the Construct Handbook for 1e—it has a template called Hell Engine, which empowers golems or whatever via infernal power granted as a boon in a contract. This screams "Chelish rearmament" to me, and Cheliax fielding companies of infernally-powered clockwork soldiers as shock troops feels thematic in a variety of ways. After all, Hell (like any loan shark worth the name) is naturally happy to help Cheliax out of their current pickle with an infusion of hellish golems, just sign on the dotted line! Cheliax gets a suite of impressive new weapons for intimidation and keeping their grip on power; they can even dispatch some of these as a token force to the Gravelands to mulch zombies and generate good PR. You could also have Mammon take a more active hand, since trade and wealth opens a lot of doors and fabulously wealthy diabolists who use their connections to collect/call in favors or gain legal carveouts for their special interests is an angle. Heck, combine the two: Cheliax gets their hooks to their neighbors with, like, a line of hellforged tractors or something. Making themselves ever more indispensible to their neighbors' economies is a great way to add some quandries to a diabolists-need-punching scenario. </p>
<p>As far as the rest of the region goes, I'm not really sure what should be done with Nidal—it's a shadowy land of evil directly beholden to Zon-Kuthon and it's seemingly not eager to become expansionistic or otherwise generate large plot hooks. Isger seems ripe for cloak-and-dagger influence struggles between Cheliax, Andoran, and Molthune. The whole region revolves around Cheliax, and honestly that's alright.</p>I'm awfully late to this particular discussion, but: Cheliax is great as a source of conflict for the setting, which means it should continue to be so.

<p>I admit I don't have any strong feelings for Varisia; Irrisen under its new queen is ripe for some wonderful political intrigue; the Realm of the Mammoth Lords got a solid treatment recently. It's the Land of the Linnorm King that is really crying out for a more nuanced treatment imo. </p>
<p>I don't know how Paizo plans to do it, but for myself I expanded the diversity of the region—humans are joined to a greater degree by elves, dwarves, frostcrag orcs, giantkin (firbolg, ogres, and trollkin mostly), tengu, and lycanthropes. Since the LotLK is also bordered by highly magical neighbors I made the Ulfen a culture that produces unusually high numbers of kineticists. Air/Water masters can make their longships shockingly fast and maneuverable; Fire/Lightning wielders are the equal of any southern longship boasting catapults or cannon; Stone, Metal, and Wood shapers are craftsfolk par excellence whose services are in high demand. For me this helps give them a distinct flavor that could still plausibly fend off their caster-heavy neighbors. I also have the Saga Lands' various true giants as neighboring realms who are no less engaged via trade & politics than any other polity.</p>I don't think the Ulfen need an off-brand Norse pantheon; if the core deities don't feel quite right (Gorum & Desna make sense to me) but there are plenty of demigods who could be fleshed out--empyreal lords, ushers, and a handful of thematic demonic lords/daemonic harbingers would be welcome.

<p>1) far less humanocentric, in the sense that the major nations of the Inner Sea have waaay more nonhumans in them and this is considered normal because it's always been that way. Giants, kobolds, goblins, firbolgs, and lycanthropes in particular are not random encounter material but often long-established citizens of various nations, or recognized holders of their own fiefdoms that engage in trade/intrigue/conflict with their neighbors like any other polity. </p>
<p>2) Firearms are more common (radiating out primarily from Alkenstar, the Shackles, Irrisen, Ustalav, and Oprak) with clockpunk in particular becoming more and more common in those specific areas. My "pirate party" campaign had a ship that could fly thanks to a genie <i>wish</i> and they weren't subtle about it, so rigid-framed airships are becoming popular as other powerful leaders see the <i>Queen of Disaster</i> and wonder why they don't have a flying ship too! And once one area has them, everyone else gets in on it as well. </p>
<p>3) space-fantasy connections in the sense of witchwyrds with void-capable vessels seeking out trading partners, and Verces is also building their own such vessels. Triaxus is going to have an industrial revolution soon. </p>
<p>4) currently GMing a Reign of Winter campaign, and I'm not at all certain Irrisen's fate will match the Lost Omens canon; I think it was a wasted opportunity not to make a larger change there. </p>
<p>5) I also have Yggdrasil, though it's more fey/First World flavored! I like the concept of the irminsul, but the statblock execution was atrocious—so I use them as living site of connection to the World Tree. </p>
<p>And I reeeeaaaaallllyyy want to run some adventures in southern Garund, the part of the continent Paizo hasn't visited yet. I keep hoping they'll give us more than the bare hints we've gotten so far.</p>I don't have much to add here that others haven't, but my major changes:

<p>————————————————</p>
<p>Born and raised in Iadara, Taerialas was raised in the center of elven power in the Inner Sea region, steeped in his people's long history and surrounded by their great works—and received numerous reminders of their decline in the world, from the ruins of fallen cities to the blasted heaths of Tanglebriar, to the loss of friends and loved ones to senseless violence against demons, masked Razmirans, or other dnagers. Like many in Kyonin, he was trained in the fighting arts and served in his people's militia, though he was spared the horrors of a posting along Tanglebriar.</p>
<p>Instead, he settled in Cordelon, a River Kingdom slowly coming under the influence of Kyonin to its south, and the elven colony of Hymbria to its east. The elves have ambitions to eventually reclaim Sevenarches but don't wish violence with the human druids there—it was to this goal that Taerialas devoted himself whole-heartedly. But this was not a work of conquest—it was a work of friendship and assimilation, and so he set about making a life for himself. He fell in love with a half-elven woman named Niria, and joined her family's business raising domesticated crag drakes native to the rugged terrain of Cordelon. He and Niria spent thirty-four happy years together until she passed in 4711AR. Taerialas has not sought to remarry, content with fond memories of his late wife and the company of his riding drakes.</p>
<p>He might have continued like this for decades more, if he had not had is own fateful Missing Moment. While training a handful of drakes, a local archway, overgrown and barely visible in the foliage, glimmered to life and its visions drew him in—a New Kyonin, ascendant and safe from her many enemies, his people no long under siege. He was gone for three months. When he returned, he found his drakes gone—broken out of their pens and scattered into the wilderness, half-feral. All but one: loyal old Malachite, the first crag drake Taerialas has raised from an egg, a wedding present from Niria.</p>
<p>Taking the collapse of the last pillar of his old life as a sign, Taerialas was unsurprised when a stranger calling himself "Doctor Ritalson" contacted him, offering the potential to unravel the mystery and take a large stride towards his destiny. Filled with a certainty of purpose, he saddled Malachite and set out trying to determine the source and meaning of his vision, certain that he is being called to help revitalize his people's nation.</p>
<p>The only crack in his narrative of glorious destiny is a secret deep down in his bones—quite literally. Taerialas can now exercise limited control over his own skeleton, extending and withdrawing blades and spikes, though it is taxing to do so. This development disturbs him; it does not strike him as a likely gift of the elven pantheon, and so he does is best to ignore it and does not readily admit to having such powers. In the back of his mind, he suspects the this Ritalson person already knows about the change, and that suspicion disturbs him further.</p>Hello! Crusaderwolf here with my completed* submission!

There's a reason no caster characters in Pathfinder (or almost all other fantasy) fiction refer to their spells in those terms. They don't exist in the game world in that way.</p>
<p>For worldbuilding explanations, you could say a sorcerer gets more and more skilled at casting a spell, especially the ones they learned early (Magic Missile, Invisibility, etc) so simpler spells get easier to cast while strong spells are still much more difficult. </p>
<p>For a wizard or magus, it's not that they "forget" the spell, it's that the movements and incantations are no longer charged with magic. Their spell prep is akin to loading bullets into a magazine; when it's fired you don't forget what a bullet is, but that one's gone and you'll have to reload to get another. </p>
<p>Forgotten Realms has something called "The Weave" which is essentially a magical matrix layered over all of creation and is maintained by the deities of magic (Mystryl/Mystra mostly, on Toril).

He was an armiger in the Thrune-sponsored Hellknight Order of the Glyph until the order was destroyed by Thrunite agents and their fortress-library burned. Caelius saw the writing on the wall and escaped right before the slaughter started, and has been on the run ever since. Since the Order of the Glyph was unsanctioned by the other Hellknights orders he's feared being caught by them or Thrune; for the past several years he's worked as an itinerant monster hunter, mercenary, and bodyguard. A little under a year ago he settled down in Otari after what he considers a near-miss involving an Order of the Rack squadron in Absalom. </p>
<p>Mechanically he's a Fighter who'll be takign the Thaumaturge archetype, and maybe the Ranger one later on but we'll see. He'll be fighting with a flail and shield until he gets his implement, and Athletics feats to trip or knockback enemies for some battlefield control. </p>

<p>Answer #1: a ghost-kid doesn't bother me, references to the fact that bad things sometimes happen to children don't bother me, but I really don't want any graphic depictions of ongoing torment regarding kids. I'm not sure what a Calling specifically entails but "rescue the kid" is a perfectly good plot hook. Just nothing graphic, please, but given what you've said already I don't anticipate any issues. </p>
<p>Answer 1.5: I also don't mind romantic/sexual content in adventures, as long as it's done tastefully (e.g. descriptions of kissing & sweet talk is great, but an erotic scene is too far for this medium). In spoilers is probably best just for the sake of forum rules. Standard 'fade to black' type stuff works. </p>
<p>Answer #2: Starting at 3rd level sounds great! Will you want us to be extra careful about tracking things like food, ammunition, etc as part of the adventure vibe?

<p>I had discussed this with Cellion on the side, but I was actually hoping to use this point in the story to retire Kargas and replace him with a different character. When the first few versions of this campaign didn't get off the ground I got the chance to play Kargas in an IRL campaign and now he feels a little redundant. However I haven't been particularly on the ball as far as getting backstory and NPC connections put together, though I am progressing on that front. </p>
<p>My personal preference: I think being able to swap Kargas out for a new character that can go through the adventure with some mechanical and narrative novelty will help immensely. That said, I think it's ultimately up to our GM who has put in a lot of work, and if Cellion isn't having fun then we're defeating the purpose. If Cellion is okay with giving me "one more last chance" then I'd like to continue, but if we wind down the campaign I understand.</p>As one of the people whose posting rate has fallen off in a big way, I apologize.

Insisting that we plant our feet in the traps—and it seems like you agree that we're aware of them—feels like a 'gotcha' rather than a reasonable interpretation of what our characters would do with the information available to them. </p>
<div class="messageboard-quotee">GM wrote:</div><blockquote>Last time you were here, Gov noticed a snare made of rose vines on the path to the center of the circle. You notice this time there are several snares instead of just one. Three are scattered about the grounds in front of the entrance, and you can see at least two on the path going into the hedge-ring's center.</blockquote><p>I think "scattered about the grounds" implies there is space between them, which in turn implies we could move around or otherwise bypass them. Reilarri didn't make the DC herself but Cyla RP'd pointing them out to us when she made the Perception check. There wasn't even a roll to jump or otherwise avoid the snares made on our behalf, we were just declared to step right into them.
<p>I'm less concerned about this specific trap than I am that this is establishing that the consequence for "you didn't specifically say X" is that the worst outcome occurs, simply by fiat. That's not a playstyle I find fun or engaging.</p>So why not clarify that there's no means of simply walking around the snares and giving us a chance to address that? Insisting that we plant our feet in the traps--and it seems like you agree that we're aware of them--feels like a 'gotcha' rather than a reasonable interpretation of what our characters would do with the information available to them.

Tilos' voice is heated and starts to grow overly loud before he catches himself. Taking a breath, the young man continues. "He has a knack for avoiding legal trouble—my father and the Church of Desna have called for him to be investigated multiple times over the years—but he has a talent for twisting the letter of the law to shield his activities, and he appears to have ties to the Order of the Nail. At the very least, they've intervened on his behalf at least twice that I can recall."
<p>Tilos' jaw tightens. "When I heard he was looking for investors, I thought perhaps my coin could buy me enough leverage to shed some light on what's going on in there, but the bastard's keeping me at arm's length.

The roach snaps at Dribbles but the larger vermin shrugs off the attack and bulls forward, drops of acid drooling onto the ground as its own mandibles tear into the smaller bug. Leaning over in his saddle the goblin smashes the coackroach over the head with his sword.

<p>To the considerably surprise of anyone watching, the dwarf's entire form—beard, clothing, and all—rapidly transforms. His beard melds into his chest as his shoulders twist and hunch forward, long tusks that gleam like rubies sprouting from an elongating jaw.

Where a dwarf once stood there is now a massive boar seemingly made of dark volcanic stone—that same web of thin fractures spreading across its surface to let molten light shine through. </p>
<p>Tossing its head, the boar opens it mouth and says in [Spoiler omitted] Turning to the others, it extends its right leg and dips its head in a passable bow. <b>"My sincere apologies if I startled you, but if we are to fight the servants of demons I will require the assistance of Jyoldukir."</b></p>Grimacing, the dwarf holds up a hand for patience--somewhat alarmingly, it appears to have turned to stone, with tiny cracks snaking across its surface to reveal a sullen red glow beneath.

<p>So a fighter with 100hp who thrashes a gang of orcs while only losing 30hp can be described as battered and covering with bruises and light cuts, but nothing serious. Same guy missing 70hp can be described as having suffered more drastic wounds—it's a pretty loose system but with a little creativity it covers all the points. </p>
<p>As a player & GM I think it's also valuable for letting the players know in a very general way how the fight is going. Since ordinarily hit points have a weird effect of "you function at 100% until you start dying" thing, the "bloodied" benchmark lets you describe the damage that's being done in terms of how much oomph the monster has left.</p>My IRL group has borrowed the concept of "bloodied", where damage that totals to less than half of your total HP is more superficial--deep bruises, maybe a sprain, or even just "your blow dents his pauldron badly, limiting his movement with that arm (no other mechanical effect)".
