G'evening, fellow adventures.

I was trying to understand why the Scroll Trickster have a "blank feat" space at level four. Look, one of my players use this Archetype (under the rules of Free Archetype) and it seems a little odd that they don't have any level four feat to choose.

How can I resolve this, since he cannot choose another Archetype Feat?

Thanks in advance.

Hello, folks. How are you?

I was thinking about Spellstrike ammo and the healing spells a couple of days ago, when a player asked about the topic.

If he uses the SPammo to damage an undead creature I see no problem with the rules. Therefore, what about the casting actions used?

Since more action means a more "complex" spell with many verbal and somatic additions, can I advocate towards a player and let him Cast a Two Action Healing Spell on a SPammo to harm the undeads?

I'm a bit confused about this.

Thanks in advance.

Hello, my dear pathfinders. I hope everyone is well and healthy.
I was searching for some rules involving "How to build a house/ How to sell a house" but can't find anything around here.

So, one of my players want to sell/rent a house that he owns at Nirmathas, near Tamran. For rent I just follow the rules of living costs (seems fair enough to me), but how about selling? How can I set a price for a shack in the woods?
Things I would definitely consider before pricing:
- Nirmathas is a region without a strong ruler.
- Nirmathas is near old Lastwall
- The woods of Nirmathas isn't that safe

So, is anyone willing to share some knowledge on how can I solve this?

Thanks.

Hello, fellow adventures! I was having some debate with a friend about what will happen with his Leshy Familiar and want to know what you think.

First of all, I have filtered the Familar to the Leshy Familiar.
Second, I read some thoughts about the Familiars and how they are "modified" by magic. James Jacobs stated some topics , but there is some questions in the air.

Since our little friends are created and became vessels for minor spirits of nature, they don't need a master to stay alive, right? Well, but when a master enter in the leshy's life they start to be infused with the "master's magic", AKA Familiar Abilities.
If the master dies, all the abilities that depends on the Master's magic infusion stop or cease to function.
Now the question, our leshy didn't die but lose his master's powers; what about the knowledge, does it keep inside the minion's mind, let's say, to pass to someone else?
Let us not Forget that Familiars doesn't have or use their own atributes modifiers.

So, what are your opinions about the death of the leshy's master?

Hello, dear pathfinders. Yesterday was our mega dungeon game and something unusual happened. Our rogue asked to lock some doors to prevent ambushes in the way back. I didn't find anything related within our 30secs rule and then I used the following:
- if the lock is not broken, the rogue can use Thievery (CD based on the quality of the original lock) and enemies who run through, need to Pick lock or Force the door.
- if the lock is broken, there is no way to locking it. Although, if players have bought locks they can try to lock it again. If they're out of locks, they can hold doors with resisted Athletics checks.

What do you think? There are specific rules?
Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone. I was searching for some rules about dragons and their biology, specifically eggs laying time and so on. Even in Dragons Revisited it not specify any conditions to lay eggs. Obviously, the "other rpg scenario that we all know", have some specific info about that, like: Red dragons have to put their eggs into flames and wait 660 days to hatch.
Is there any information, regardless the scenario or even systems, that I could use?
You as gm, would do like the the example?
Or there's a specific paizo book that brings light to this topic?

Also, it would be great if the next dragon book could have this kind of information. Like, diet, environmental changes, biology and so.

Thank you.
