When the first images came out, I did not understand that they were preliminary--I was disappointed. But I pre-ordered from my FLGS anyway.

I am really excited now. These are awesome.

I'll be pre-ordering the Rise of the Runlords set even if you don't preview them.

Great work.

Just finished listening to the interview with Erik Mona (you may have heard of him) on Fear the Boot .

Great interview lots of good stuff about the beginner box and other Pathfinder and Paizo related goodness.

I will ask my question in a spoiler, for it springs from a very specific source--specifically The Forbidden Furnace of Forgotten Koor . I thought about posting it in the Society GM boards, but I would really like a broader rules clarification---since insanity can be sooooo much fun.

Thanks

OOOPS, Gunpowder--calling Dr. Freud.

I don't intend to get into a lengthy discussion, mainly because there is nothing for me to really discuss (see below.)

However, I did want to post my deep dislike of gunpowder in the setting.

I know there has been gunpowder since day #1 in Golarion, but I always had the impression that it was inserted for those who wanted to put it into their games, but that it would be left alone and not really ever mentioned again.

With Greenwood's stories, which I purposely avoided, and with the rise of the gunslinger--and especially its legality in society play--it appears to me that gunpowder is on the rise, and that saddens me. I cringe at opening the World Guide after I drop my dollars on it, for fear of what may lay inside.

I don't care about comparisons with real world history and I don't care about gunpowder in other similar settings. My reaction is because of my personal preferences--and really can't be reasoned with (as bad as that might sound).

This is a setting I love, but the genie seems to be out of the bottle. It will take a lot to put it back in. There is a taint on the setting in my mind and heart.

I hope I'm wrong.

Caison is only an Initiate with the Pathfinder Society, but necessity and secrecy requires him to join a detachment tasked with solving the mystery of a group of missing Pathfinders. He's been told not to trust anyone. Once he boards the missing Pathfinders' beached ship, he finds clues to the mystery. However, determining the importance of those clues will have to wait. First and foremost, Caison needs to survive.

Visit the Pathfinder Chronicler for Part 2 of Caison's continuing story.

And if you have yet to read about how Caison got in so deep, read Part 1

Every Pathfinder has a beginning. Adventurous children with an eye for seeing the world and facing down the terrors that lurk in dark places dream of joining the Pathfinder Society. They study and train their whole lives to travel to Absalom for initiation.
Caison Pariot was no such child. He stumbled into the society. Living on the streets of Oppara’s Narrows might have provided him with the skills needed to hunt down the lost artifacts of Golarian, uncovering historical mysteries along the way, but his life on the streets didn’t provide him the discipline needed to glide through training as a Pathfinder Initiate. However, his questioning of authority, willingness to buck the system, and lack of familial ties may be the combination the Pathfinder Society needs right now as a mystery involving its own begins to unfold.
Follow Caison as he embarks on a dangerous mission to recover some missing Pathfinders and the mysterious scroll that has disappeared with them.
Spit and Polish Part 1 is now available at Pathfinder Chronicler .

The first installment of Caison Poriat is up at the Pathfinder Chronicler
Follow Caison, formerly a lowly street rat from Oppara, as he faces the challenges one must face to become a true Seeker of Secrets.
When a troublesome initiate is selected to join a rescue of missing Pathfinders before ever completing his trials, there is certainly something amiss. Why was he selected to go? Who are these three that join him? And what has one Venture Captain questioning his superiors?
"Spit and Polish, Part 1" is available now.

Okay, so I want to jump into Pathfinder with both feet, but I want to do so through the Pathfinder Society.

Question--as a player who hopes to someday also judge, I want to start building my Pathfinder library.

Outside of the Core Book, where should I go next? And really, I'd be happy with broad products (e.g. Companion). Again, I'm interested specifically in material useful in PFS.

Thanks!
